    vv & vw mods VS vw only mods??..

    To kind of keep this simple: First, there is no real "advantage" whether the mod is both vv & vw, or just vw. Most folks now days simply run in vw anyway, only because it is actually an easier mode to dial in your preferred vape, because variable wattage delivers a similar strength vape across...

    Why would you need anything better..?

    It's all a matter of personal preference. Some of us find their "sweet spot" and stop, others are constantly curious about what else is out there and can't resist trying new toys. Neither point of view is wrong. After a couple of years I am somewhat into both camps. I use and appreciate a...

    single or dual coil

    As others have said it really depends on the device. On my Russian 91% a simple, single micro coil gives me all the flavor that I crave, but then I am not a cloud chaser.

    Next step up?

    I think that the iStick 30 makes a good step up from what you have been using while retaining a more familiar size and simplicity. It gives you enough power should you decide to foray into a sub ohm tank such as the Kanger Mini Subtank, but is very suitable for a mouth-lung vaping tank such as...

    New Intermediate Setup Recommendations

    If you do not like an airy draw, then the Atlantis is definitely not for you. Most if not all of the sub ohm type tanks are primarily engineered towards huge vapor and those who take lung hits versus "mouth to lung" inhaling. You may like the Aspire Nautilus/Nautilus Mini tanks. As far as the...

    Istick 30w

    That your connection appears to be sketchy/intermittent I agree with realsis that you should make sure that the 510 connector is properly working, in other words if you push on the 510 connector with a pen, there should be some up/down movement...if not it is the 510 connector. There is no way...

    IPV Mini V2 ???

    Good thread all! I have both the IPV Mini and Mini 2. While the original IPV Mini is good, I wanted the "overhead" in terms of power. A few observations of the differences: I thought that the mobile power "feature" on the original was at best wonky, particularly considering that it does not...

    Banana Pudding by StratoMyst

    I have been a long time fan of banana flavored blends, and this to date has become my personal favorite, Banana Pudding, made by StratoMyst. StratoMyst flavors are available in a number of PG/VG formulations and nic strength, I am vaping it at a 50/50 PG/VG blend at 12mg nic with my device of...

    New member - Big(ger) tank question

    Its all a matter of which form factor you prefer, box or tube style mod. I have and like both, so not much help there I suppose. Although they are built nice enough, I would not recommend the Provari at this point in time. Yes, they are well-constructed, but there are any number of less...

    Vaping not to quit cigarettes?

    I started vaping in order to quit cigarettes, but not with any intention to eventually quit vaping. I have enjoyed switching from smoking to vaping, and am not particularly worried over a little nicotine. Its the carcinogens, tars, etc. that I wanted to avoid.

    Evic supreme

    I would recommend considering the Sony 2600mah vct5 instead. 30 amps and much longer run time than the included Sony vct4 2100 mah. Don't just go by the mah rating, trust me, the vct5 offers considerably longer vape time per charge in the eVic S. If you are running standard resistance coils...

    The eVic S actually is 5.5" in length, not 7.5".

    Evic supreme

    Yeah, I guess I am being a bit over the top on the puff counter allstairs...:blush: Just because I have little/no use for it does not equate to it being a wasted feature.

    Evic supreme

    Yes! The silver version has the silver button against the black background of the control head. I love the black eVic S, but the black button DOES get "lost" against the black control head...a silver or other metallic color fire button would have been a lot better idea...but not the end of the...

    eVic Supreme

    I have the eVic S (black model) and so far find very little to dislike save the still wonky usb port cover, which is really just a small nit-pick. I seldom vape sub ohm, but slapped a .5 ohm coil on an RSST and yes, it will fire down to .5 ohms. This thing is a beast with my KayFun Lite and...

    OPINION NEEDED: Upgrade from DNA20 to DNA30? Worth it or being selfish/stupid?

    Phone Guy, I dunno. Will this mod perform significantly better than your Futura? It appears to be at best a minor upgrade/update for a hefty piece of change. The springless bottom cap and "engineered gap" to adjust the Wizard to slightly differing battery lengths leaves me flat...particularly...

    Evic supreme

    Got my eVic S yesterday, after getting a chance to check it out hands-on first. About the same size as the Vamo...big, but not ridiculously so, and of course being constructed of ss makes it solid/heavy, but then I have a VTR so it does not seem that heavy to me. This absolutely rocks my...

    Evic supreme

    Hmm, I do not believe that it will have a replaceable 510 thread connector...that appears to be their poor command of English leading to that, not the reality. They said that the connector ring is changeable...not the 510 threads themselves. Personally, I am disappointed that this does not...

    Provari or......????

    If your only concern is durability/reliability, and you do not need a high-voltage mod, then the Provari obviously fills the bill as one of the most durable mods out there. If you are looking for higher voltage, or a mod with more advanced features then you may want to look elsewhere. No knock...
