    DNA 30 battery and case question

    Hello everyone, I decided to build a DNA30 device and I have two questions (actually several when it comes to batteries): 1. If I get two LiPo batteries of 3.7V 750mah and a minimum 35C rating (they are actually rated 35C regular, 70C burst), if I wire them in parallel, am I correct in saying...

    Regulated tube mode with usb charger

    Hi, I've been vaping for 4 months or so and my 5V/11W eVic doesn't provide enough power anymore. After searching here and there I couldn't locate an APV that is regulated, 15W+/6V+, tube and also has built-in USB charging (that's precisely why I got the eVic as my first vaping device, not...

    Kowing when the juice is almost over in cotton builds

    Odessyus with a microcoil and some cotton jammed into it and into the ceramic channels It's not an issue if it burns at home, but it kinda sucks when I am at work :)

    Kowing when the juice is almost over in cotton builds

    Hello all, How do you know when the juice is almost over in a full metal tank with a cotton build (which has no glass option)? With the protank was pretty easy. I also ordered an RDA, would be useful to know and not burn the wick every 10-15 drops :) I should mention my "taste" is not that...

    BSD's vertical hollow core Micro Coil build for ARO, Evod, and Protank heads.

    Ok, learned the hard way that I shouldn't pack the cotton very hard. I packed it so hard that my precision screwdriver cannot go through it, or at least push it back :) When I fire I cannot hear the sweet crackling noise, I cannot hear anything, but if I pull there is vape. Kinda little though...

    BSD's vertical hollow core Micro Coil build for ARO, Evod, and Protank heads.

    I tried it as well, best smoothest vape I ever had. I followed the build closely, I even got the coil to be the predicted 2 ohm with Kanthal. That being said, at 1/3 of the protank it still started leaking (as it usually does for me with any horizontal cotton build). Any advice would be great...

    BSD's vertical hollow core Micro Coil build for ARO, Evod, and Protank heads.

    How do you dry burn this type of coil it being so close to the rubber? Trimming the rubber would help in not getting a rubber burnt taste?

    Your timelines on the health benefits?

    I didn't notice any health improvement so far (20 years smoking, 55 days vaping), though I was healthy and fit when I was smoking. There are two things though: 1. Now cigarette smoke stinks, while everything else smells the same. Also I can smell cigarette smoke from very far away which is a...

    Space between top cap and tank fix?

    Hmm, sounds more like a manufacturing problem either on your 510 connection or on your delivery device's central pin. My protanks sit flush on all three top caps that I have (standard, black, black flat).

    What material of drip tips produce the best flavor?

    I think the only factor that might play a role is how large the hole in the middle is. If it's too thin, the draw might be tighter, thus reduced quantity of vapor (which I think affects flavor by a degree).

    Provari...why do people get uptight?

    It's funny how different people chose their mods. You know what was the last thing I worried about when buying my first ecig? Yup, volts and volts related topics :) I figured that if it's variable, I'll just dial it up or down till I like it. Here is the list (ordered by importance) which...

    Cotton yarn issue

    I gotta thank you for this observation right here. It bugged me all day while at work. When I finished my current tank, I rewicked the current coil with 2 pieces of my yarn (so that would be like 20 strands) + a small 5 strand on top as flavor wick. Bingo! That's the exact same experience I had...

    Cotton yarn issue

    Unfortunately I don't have these brands locally, also very hard to find them in EU. But I got the idea, I'll go to the local crafts shop and try to find 4 ply cotton. Thanks for the info!

    Cotton yarn issue

    By strand do you mean one of those little strings that form the big string? Mine has 10 strands, you are saying I should put less than the whole thing? My drill bit is like 1.5-1.6 mm in diameter. Here's the yarn and the drill bit for comparison. Later edit: I want to make this yarn method...

    Cotton yarn issue

    The device is an eVic. I also have an eGo Twist but never used it, I just bought it for backup. Later edit: Here, i disassembled it now, I guess I am in the category of too little wick. That should explain poor falvor and poor vapor production.

    Cotton yarn issue

    Yes, I am burning the coil thoroughly. In the picture you have a PT2 coil assembly. The burn is not on the inner wire (that goes through the gasket and is held in place by the center pin), the burn is on the outer wire that sits between the rubber and the rest of the metal body. The wires I...
