    I need a mod that is not a piece of junk

    I've just about had it with the whole damn industry. I just want a decent affordable mod that works. In the past few weeks Iv'e had: 1. Joyetech cuboid (200w?), stopped working. 2. Pioneer4you ipv8 box mod 230w, can't remember what the problem was but it was faulty, didn't even bother sending...

    Vaping makes my heart rate shoot up to 100

    Hey guys, I have been worrying about this issue for a few months now. I'm a healthy 25yo male who has a resting pulse of 100. I check my pulse in the morning and it's about 60-70, then I vape and it goes up to 100. I didn't know for certain if there was a link, but yesterday I did a day of no...

    Has anyone cut down to 0mg?

    Since starting DIY I've found that I have a lot more control over my addiction to nicotine. I started smoking in 2012, and it only took a month before I was on pack a day. The longest I have gone without nicotine is probably about 3months of cold turkey. I've been vaping since 2014 and...

    How do vendors make THICK juice?

    Hey guys, I'm trying to get in to DIY but I really want to make these thick juices the new companies are making. Think of 'The Milk' by teleos. I swear these juices are more viscous than my pure VG base. I thought 'oh yeah it's just sweetner' but then I got a bottle of tobacco from Nude...

    Need some advice on how to chain vape

    Guys I really appreciate all your advice, this is why this is my favourite forum on the internet. I *think* I figured out the problem. Mostly it's because I've been an idiot, making builds and not taking the time to learn about how they work. As you can imagine when you're a beginner, you never...

    RDA On the fence about getting a Tsunami 24

    Hey guys, I'm fairly new to RDAs but I'm hooked already. I got a Tsunami original (22mm) and I'm really loving it so far, only issue is the wicking is a major pain in the ..... I have to stuff it in to the little deck and it still clumps up and wicks poorly no matter what I do. I've read that...

    Need some advice on how to chain vape

    I would never be able to get a 32awg to work lol. I have about 29ft left of 29awg which is just too malleable and fickle where I end up crushing or moving around the coils too much during insertion. Plus I can't for the life of me get a low ohm using them, my last attempts were 1.5-2.7ohm! Even...

    Need some advice on how to chain vape

    Hey guys, I'm a pretty heavily addicted to nicotine (and vaping) so I find I'm chain vaping pretty much all day. The issue I'm having here is that from the moment I build my RDA, it takes maybe 10-15 minutes before it starts to taste a bit like burnt, another 10-15 minutes before the vape is...

    Can someone suggest me a good tobacco dominant dessert juice using only FA flavourings?

    I'm limited on budget and shipping fees so I want to order from a local vendor that happens to have a strong range of FA concentrates. I'm trying to make something like the old bobas bounty, or a nice pipe tobacco with some sweet notes. Any recommendations? I could also possibly get some Capella...

    Boyd's Bounty, I need to make a clone...

    Haha yes it's not likely I'll find it on any of these websites sadly, but thank you for trying!

    Boyd's Bounty, I need to make a clone...

    This is my ADV for sure, the only juice I ever got that mixed tobacco well with dessert (I'm primarily a tobacco lover). Does anyone know the solution here? I checked everywhere else and it's not coming up, only bobas bounty clones.

    What's the most dissapointing premium e-juice you ever tried?

    Something that I've been thinking about as I'm vaping my new order. It's the 5 pawn Castle Long (Insignia series) and I've been waiting to try it for a few months. Possibly... the worst liquid I ever vaped? Well, that's not entirely fair, it tastes like those chinese cigalike cartridges I tried...

    RDA Suddenly having issues with Tsunami

    Hey guys, I got my first RDA about 5 days ago with a coil master v3 (makes perfect coils) at first I made some simple single coils with a 24 guage, amazing vapour and flavor. Use some premade clapton, not as great but still very good. Then suddenly I started getting dry hits, wicking issues and...

    RDA Help me choose between these two atomizers

    Tsunami it is! I eventually want something that looks cool, like a tugboat v2 (I love the colouring). The Lush comes close to that style but too many people suggesting the Tsunami lol

    RDA Help me choose between these two atomizers

    Due to my location, budget and because I'm already buying a ton of gear from this store, I made the decision to just get whatever atty they have on hand (since it's just for learning). So I know there's better atty's out there but this will have to do. I'm getting a budget atty because it's my...

    Looking for a big upgrade

    So basically, before the evic vtc and eleaf istick I used an old vanilla copper mechanical mod. This put the idea in to my head that the mod is nothing but a battery holder. This mentality was wiped away when I tried my uwell crown tank on an old vaporshark dna40. Suddenly, all the issues I...

    Looking for a big upgrade

    I'm shopping for an upgrade for my evic VTC mini with uwell crown tank. Vaping is getting so advanced though I don't even know where to start. All I can figure out is, go for a DNA200 chip, this seems to be top of the range so far. I guess it's between lavabox and the vaporshark, since I'm not...

    1 year in I still can't stop smoking cigarettes when I drink

    I've been toying with the idea of making my own. It seems quite complicated though to make something worthwhile with so many flavour producers out there. I wonder how much experience you need to make something on the level of old Alien Vision or any of the popular ones. I wonder if the other...

    1 year in I still can't stop smoking cigarettes when I drink

    I'm stuck in a routine where I do fine with just e-cigarettes all week, then come along Saturday and drinking with the boys at bars/clubs and the urge to smoke a cigarette becomes the most powerful thing imaginable. It seems nothing feels better than that real burn sensation when you're under...

    Is sub-ohm vaping the new norm?

    It seems that in discussion of tanks, only sub-ohm tanks are considered. I think I'm starting to accept that my love of vaping declined severely once I transferred to sub-ohm. It's just too harsh, too hot, kills the flavour and eats through juice. That's my personal view of it, but is it the...
