    Is this safe???

    I heard about and seen a couple guys use nail polish on their battery wrappers to paint over nicks and on top of the battery wrapper on the positive side to hold the wrapper down and keep flat. Is this safe and has anyone heard of this? :confused: TIA

    Just Freeze!!!

    It seems like freezing is most people's response for every situation when parts gets stuck. But, what do you do when freezing doesn't doesn't work? Some people say leave it in the freezer over night or run it under hot tap water, soak it in boiled water, use rubber gloves and wet towels for...

    Copper Flagship MOD by SMK

    I'm so tempted to by this even though I just picked up an authentic mod a few days ago, because the price is so cheap for a full 1 piece body copper mod. It's going for $120 at my local B&M the same price as online stores. I'm not sure when this MOD came out, because I can't really find any...

    After reading many threads posted by either new members who are very inexperienced or other members who have been vaping for awhile without too much knowledge about vaping besides how to charge their devices and change coils and refill their tanks, so many inexperienced people or newer members...

    Hybrid Adapters

    I couldn't find anything using the search button about this. I'm looking at a hybrid adapter for my authentic copper vanilla with the brass top and bottom caps, and not sure if it would look funny just having brass on the bottom cap and firing button?

    Who can answer this question???

    After using mechanical mods and rebuilding, I learned a lot especially with batteries and ohms and the way the output works for voltage/watts. Then I started thinking back to when I used regulated variable voltage devices and thought how does that work? If a battery is a 3.7 volt battery that...

    How to get around the FDA if e-cigs and PVs and related products are banned

    There's been lots of talk on ECF and on the web about this. But, how bad can it really be for us vapors? People who already have mods and do their own rebuiulding and DIY juice I would say are in better shape than most. Things like kanthal should still be sold, since it is designed for other...

    Is polishing off patina ruining your MODS?

    For anyone who owns a brass or copper mod knows you will eventually have a wanted or unwanted patina on your mod. Brass isn't as bad as a copper, since copper will turn green and so will your hands. I've tried different polishes, usually Nevr-Dull and tried Brasso only with heavy patina all...
