    State trooper pulled me over the other day. Guess why!

    Great story. Sorry the trooper had to such a jerk. here in south Florida, most people don't pay much attention to vaping. If I'm at a light or driving next to a cop, I vape boldly in front of them. Walking in a mall I'll take a nice big vape while passing by the security dweeb. The more we just...

    New to vaping looking for advice

    I second that about the EVOD is VERY reliable for safe e-liquid flavors (no heavy citrus and no cinnamon flavors or it cracks the mouth piece). Protank is the next best (has Pyrex glass tank, safe for ANY flavor) but the Protank occasionally leaks or dry hits and has a very airy draw that needs...

    any other veterans still have discouraging days?

    Everyone here is awesome for your continued effort to vape rather than smoke, keep up the great job you're doing for you body. Anything you do to stay away from those tobacco filled paper tubes of death is fantastic. :toast:

    any other veterans still have discouraging days?

    It seems like a lot of you that are experiencing problems are mostly using cartos. That may be the bigger problem you're all having. Again, the EVOD on a nice simple eGo Twist is extremely dependable. I don't even feel the need for a back-up with the EVOD. On occasion I'll carry a second EVOD...

    any other veterans still have discouraging days?

    I'm far from being a vapor vet but I'm into it for 3 months now and have become quite savvy with pro stuff. After 3 weeks into starting to vape I had one of those days followed by a second day following it with a device leaking. I broke down and got a pack of analogs and took 2 hits off one and...

    Nicotine - Equivalent strengths - Disposable ecig v cigarettes

    Hey peej, Giving vaping another chance is the BEST thing you could ever do for yourself aside from full on quitting. The mini flings are like the Blu's and Njoy's etc. (I call these "half hitters") I call them 'half hitters' because they usually only give just over half the hit of the tank or...

    Kanger pro tank problems

    One last thing I'd like to say about the Protank is: Although it's a superior low budget device because it's easily rebuildable and has a Pyrex tank, one disappointment with it is that it's chrome plated instead of stainless steel (that's a real downer for me), another big disappointment is that...

    Kanger pro tank problems

    I think you're not experiencing the spitting because you used ribbon wire and I used round. I have some ribbon arriving within days. I ordered it to improve the duel coils on my GG Ithaka but now that I've been enlightened by your video for these little coil heads with ribbon; it looks like I'll...

    Kanger pro tank problems

    If it wasn't for it cracking sooo easy with certain e-liquids, I totally agree. As long as you use a safe (no citrus, cinnamon, etc.) e-liquid, The EVOD is BY FAR THE BEST bottom coil clearomizer on the market! It just simply works! It's my #1 recommendation to all the new (and non-building)...

    Kanger pro tank problems

    Adding the SS mesh rebuild tutorial was a great add to your reply Kanj.nguyen I never saw a tutorial on doing this before I did it myself. Only one thing about SS wick that sucks a little bit, it has a tendency to spit hot juice on occasion that will burn your tong if you take too heavy a draw...

    Kanger pro tank problems

    tddman66, you shouldn't let yourself get discouraged by this thread. The Protank is so far the very best bottom coil tank (BCT) for the price, Pyrex is king of vaping. EVERY other BCT is plastic which cracks whenever you put the wrong liquid in it. The biggest trick to the Protank is to learn...

    what to do with new wick and wire?

    Torch the wick till it glows white. As for the wire, you don't need to do anything to it except wrap it around the wick (you can very lightly torch it to take out some of the springiness out of it if you want). How many times you wrap it depends on the size of the wire vs. how many ohms you want...

    Aftermarket eVic tube with eVic Tatroe Base from CigTechs

    Where would I find the exact die that's right for the eVic's threads. I don't even know what or how to find out what the exact thread specifications I need. Of course, I don't want to ruin the thread either. Any suggestions on where to get such a die and exactly which size specification I need?

    Aftermarket eVic tube with eVic Tatroe Base from CigTechs

    I got the Siam tube with squares inlay from Pink Mule and I love it, really makes the eVic finally feel like a real mod. I like the smiley face end cap :) it's pretty cool but, it's not for everyone. One of my favorite devices to put on the eVic is the AGA t2 which, like any genesis device...

    Aftermarket steel Evic tubes/sets

    I got the Siam tube with squares inlay and I love it, really makes the eVic finally feel like a real mod. I have tried the original JoyeTech cap on it an it threads on perfectly but it does have the JoyeTech logo on it (but the logo is faint and descrete). Not sure if that helps you out. One of...

    Bad coil?

    Can winding a coil too tight or too loose on a wick cause this to happen prematurely? Because this problem occurred after only a couple days of this rebuild. Or could I just simply have used a ready wire that was bad from the start? This problem I'm having is with a GG Ithaka which uses...

    Bad coil?

    #2 is what I'm experiencing. Perhaps from reason #3. Can #3 happen because of too much juice flow? And, Can these factors result in Ohms reading to jump up like .2 Ohms or so? I appreciate the help. I'm getting closer to Pro level so I'm trying to get a Pro understanding instead of just simply...
