    Wood Getting Back to Modding

    So I stepped away from the modding side of vaping about 5 years ago and have been happily vaping away on some very nice mech mods I was gifted around the same time. I have been tossing the idea around for a while of building my own 18650 wooden pipe mod, and decided today to give it a go. The...

    Mythical Fabrications?

    After a bit more searching I managed to find them. Appears the owner went through some issues due to partners who screwed him (and some customers) over. Anyway, for those who are interested, he is starting over with a new business without the partners who screwed him and everyone else over...

    Mythical Fabrications?

    Anyone know if Mythical Fabrications is still in business? I have used their contact form several times to try and inquire about their devices with no response. In the event they are in business and just not answering emails, can anyone who has used their devices advise whether they are capable...

    Bliss - isnt that ironic...

    Ok so just received a Bliss. Now this isn't my first geny type atty, but it is my first dual coil geny. I have tried it with mesh, cotton, and silica and for the life of me I can't get the thing to NOT have a hot spot. I waited for over a month for this thing to show up and after a few hours of...

    Also, if anyone knows a good way to contact CASAA in regards to this to have them weigh in, go for it.

    Another Local News Fail

    Ok folks, I am doing damage control as best I can with my Social group, commenting on the story, and have already contact the news agency to inform them of the more recent study that disproves what they are reporting on. If any of you have time to weigh in on the topic in the comments area, or...

    SS Rope Wick

    Ok, so I am giving in to peer pressure and going to give SS Rope a try for wicking. SO, I need help from my fellow vapers. For those of you who have used it, where did you get it and what are the specs I need to look for? Also wondering if its something I might be able to pick up at a local...

    99 Problems and they all genesis...

    Personally, I am more a fan of Silica over mesh. Mostly because I have found mesh can't handle dry burning. I have burnt holes straight through mesh wicks. Not to mention once you char the area around the coil with a dry burn, EVERYTHING will taste burnt and that taste never goes away until...

    Blackened Coil & Wick inside a week?

    I was genuinely surprised that this coil would catch fire like that but my Dual Coil setup which came out to about 0.5 Ohm (used on a mech mod) never did. Oh well, still fairly amusing to see it happen. LOL

    Blackened Coil & Wick inside a week?

    So once I got home yesterday I metered out the coil at 2.1 Ohm. Popped it on my iTaste MVP and cranked it to 5v. It works pretty dang well. Its actually hitting much harder than I expected and the flavor is great. Although when I pulled the topcap off and test fired it a few times with juice...

    Blackened Coil & Wick inside a week?

    Thats actually what I did. The pic is at a bad angle, but it spinning the thing around and looking at the wick inside the coil its actually pretty well covered. Also, the wick is dry (replaced it as the first wick was way too little) so it will expand a bit once I drip a bit of juice on it I...

    Blackened Coil & Wick inside a week?

    Yeah it is setup for dual coil, but I have bored a hole in the side to compensate for the second coil. Plenty of airflow. Actually I am considering stuffing up the built in airhole in the base and boring a second hole in the side. I took it outside (stupid Indiana laws... grumble grumble...)...

    Blackened Coil & Wick inside a week?

    I just took a pic of a 2 day old coil. The wick doesnt look too bad, but thats because I just spend the better part of 15 minutes washing it out with host water in the bathroom sink here at the office. Washed a LOT of gunk off the wick but the build up on the coil did not want to come off...

    Blackened Coil & Wick inside a week?

    Thanks folks. After posting realized its likely to do with my juice. I have been DIYing the same juice for two years now, so I am going to order a 100ml or so of prefab juice in a similar flavor and see if that changes anything. Also, in the meantime, I will try OperationMove's suggestion and...

    Blackened Coil & Wick inside a week?

    Ok, so I have brought this up to a few local vape buddy's who use RBA/RDA devices and I seem to be at a loss here so I am bringing it to ECF to get some answers. I have both an RSST & an Octopus dripper both of which are used on the same Mechanical mod and I have same issue with both. Inside a...

    Ecowool

    Ok that confuses me a bit. I thought Ecowool/Ekowool was not Silica. That however describes it as Silica sheathing. I'm still a bit green in the area of rebuildables, so I could be way off base here. Is Ecowool/Ekowool actually just another form of Silica?

    Ecowool

    So I have been looking at using Ecowool in my RDA rather than the Silica Wick I have been using. After some research, I am just not cool with continuing the use of silica due to the potential risks involved. However, I haven't a clue where to buy Ecowool or where to get the best prices. So...

    Independent Vapes is Hosting a Meet-up on July 27th!

    Been away from ECF for a while guys, but just popped on today as I drove past this B&M shop yesterday. Had to do a double take, not safe in traffic lol, to make sure I saw what I thought I saw. Glad to see another B&M in town. Going to have to stop in one of these days and do a little...
