    Need Help with Kanger ProTank and Ego C-Twist Setup

    Double check the battery with something else. If it works, then my guess is it's not getting proper connection with the Protank atty. The protank doesn't have a very protruding post at the bottom of the connection, so if the post down in the middle of the connection on your battery has been...

    VV/VW what to use? Volts or Watts?

    As long as you reach a good volt-ohm balance, there's no difference between using volts or watts. Generally, I'd say watt is just a lot more convenient to use. You can set it at one level and leave it there for most anything you put on it. Sometimes, depending on the device or the juice, you...

    *** Saber Touch Contest! Introducing The New Style Sensor! ***

    The SaberTouch mods are some of the best looking mods I know, and that new button does have a cleaner look. Very nice! The extra conductivity will certainly help, especially for those with dry skin, so I guess this makes everyone happy. Very good! I also feel quite certain that the SaberTouch...

    Ego-t jump directly to a mechanical? good decision?

    I think it really depends on what kind vape you're after and how you feel about the hobby aspect of vaping. Some might enjoy the mechanical tinkering of things, and others prefer finely tuned electronic devices. Personally, I love an advanced mod with lots of options and ability to change my...

    newbie here...is wheezing normal in the beginning?

    One of my favorite juices does that to me. At least I think it's the same thing. I get this whiny/wheezing sound when I breathe. Feels like my throat and lungs get some sorta mild inflammation. There's something that happens, at least, and I feel it especially when I vape while lying down. I've...

    What tank for 100% vg liquids?

    Overall in the tank section, I do think carto tanks are the way to go for VG liquids, but pre-punched cartos with those dinky holes are not good enough. There needs to be significant holes for sufficient wicking, and then you just need to play around with it and understand how it functions when...

    What clearomizers can I use on my Volt X2 battery that won't melt?!

    It really depends on what kinda vape you're looking for and how much work you wanna put into it. It also depends on how much you know already, cause there is some inherent risk with rebuildable atomizers etc. Things can short, things can be damaged and batteries can blow up, so unless you have...

    Trouble with 100% VG and Clogged Cartomizers...

    If I understand your problem correctly, I think it's the tank-setup doing it. Either the holes in the cartos are too big (although they kinda need to be when you use 100% VG), or, perhaps more likely, the heat of your coil heats up the air and juice inside the tank and creates higher pressure...

    1st day of my life (in last 20 years) without a nasty cig!!

    A relative of mine did the same thing with V2s. I suggested them to him and he loved them. I felt proud of him when he told me that he had skipped his habitual "morning smoke" for the first time in something like 15 years, cause he rather wanted to have a puff on his e-cig. Another friend of...

    Hi from newbie in Texas!

    Perhaps an eGo Twist/Spinner could be a good next purchase for you, just to get a taste of the power of variable voltage..? That is unless you were drooling over some of those fancier looking mods. Hehe. In any case, Twists and Spinners come in many different colors, so there's something for...

    Looking for a new battery

    Sounds like a compact mod with an 18350 and a kick could be a great solution. The Smoktech Telescope offers that possibility, doesn't it? Depends if you like the look of it though, but it's - as far as I know - not too pricey. Here's a review: A PBusardo Review - Smoktech Telescope - YouTube I...

    Drip tips

    You're very welcome! And the tampon reference was fantastic, so no need to worry :D As far as drip tips go, may I recommend you get one in a Ming shape? It may not look "right" on your pen-style e-cig, but it's just sooo comfortable to use! Cheers!

    Drip tips

    Tampon sized devices is the way to go! :D Yes, I believe you can use 510 drip tips for those Volt CE3 Cartomizers. I know their regular cartos have the same standard width of 510 drip tips, at least, and the CE3s seem to be the same size in terms of width as well, which is what matters. When...

    Recomendations for a noobie

    I have found the "eGo Dual Coil Cartomizer and 1000mAh Passthrough battery kit" from Vapingzone to be the best starter kit for people wanting to get into vaping. It's fairly cheap (they seem to always have a 30+% sale on them) at $55, have everything you need with big capacity dual coil cartos...

    What are you waiting for in the mail?

    Using mesh? That sounds like something I'd like to know about, cause I'm a VG guy. I'll jump on google right away! :D

    What are you waiting for in the mail?

    I just had to buckle under for the temptation and buy a white eRoll kit. I love my Vamo and kicked SaberTouch, but the temptation of getting a handy cig-a-like kit just got to me. What can I say? They're just so darn good looking I couldn't help myself. I just want something easy and compact for...

    Heavy vaper

    If anything, I'm thinking the dual coils helps you avoid dry hits, because the coils tend to heat up less than a single coil if voltage stays the same. I think the two main issues are size of the hole(s) and whether you keep your filler material soaked properly. If you buy those pre-holed dual...

    Heavy vaper

    I use carto tanks and also like long draws of warm and flavorful vapor. The magic is to have big enough holes in your cartos (I've found pre-holed Boges to work like a charm. I would guess all pre-holed Boges comes the same way, but if not, I get mine from vapeescape.co.uk) and also importantly...

    Good VG juice vendors?

    I echo this! They're great! Heather's Heavenly Vapes let's you choose the PG/VG ratio, with a choice of 100% VG. I believe some juices will have a warning if some of the juices may have some tiny levels of PG in them, because of the flavors in the bottle etc. This should normally not be a...

    No turning back now!

    Sounds like you have some really great friends! Aga-T+ is my next purchase. I want in on that ss mesh wick action!
