    KFL+ Leaking...Help!

    I've had a 2.3 oHm microcoil build on my KFL+ for a couple weeks (.28 or .30 gauge wrapped around a 1/16th" drill bit, cotton wicking), and suddenly it's started leaking insanely. It was fine (more or less) until a couple days ago, but whenever I add e-liquid at this point, it basically leaks...

    AW Battery Problems from Canadian Vendor

    I've bought several 18490 AW batteries from a couple Canadian vendors, and it looks like there's a problem with some of them: they're not holding a charge. If I fully charge them up and then carry them around in a battery case for half a day, they'll be down to 3.4 - 3.5 volts by the time I try...

    MVP M2/iClear 30 difficulty

    I'm asking this question on behalf of a friend who just bought an MVP V2 starter kit, and is having problems with it; sounds like it's not firing consistently. He doesn't have regular access to an internet computer, and I won't have a chance to meet up to look at his setup until later in the...

    E2 Question - KF Clone Ohms Reading Big Change

    Not sure if I should be asking this in the rebuildables forum or here, but I had a strange thing happen while using a KF clone on my mini. (9 or 10 wraps of 32 gauge Kanthol around a 1/16th" drill bit = 1.3 oHms). I started getting intermittent e2 readings (with the atomizer not firing at all)...

    EU Euro Court of Justice Ruling Expected re: Clones

    On the BBC international radio news this morning, there was a report about a case in Denmark involving a man who bought a fake Rolex from China via the internet. When it arrived, Danish customs apparently ordered him to destroy it (i.e. copyright infringement), he refused, and the case has...

    First Successful Genny Build, Sort Of. A Couple Questions

    Greetings; After a few mis-tries, I finally completed a usable build on my Siam Cobra. I got this rba a week ago, and it came with a build already done, courtesy of the seller. So I already know how good this rba can be, and that's the result I was aiming for. Before I try a new build, which I...

    I went to a vape shop in Mtl today, I got there about 30 min after it opened this morning, and there was a line-up out to the sidewalk and crazy busy inside, with a lot of peple buying their first starter kit. A staff guy said it's busy like that all day. I'm attending a conference, and lots...

    First Genesis-style RBA, Wow!

    Greetings; I've been wanting to try a Genesis-style rba, and the Siam Cobra that I bought arrived two days ago. This vapor and flavor from this thing is off the charts. I picked the Cobra because it came thru a good classifieds deal. I wanted something half decent, without spending a lot of...

    Gentlemen's Reserve Still Open?

    Does anyone know if this vape shop is still alive? Its website is down. I noticed recently that GR was selling Nemesis mods (real ones) for $120, which is pretty awesome. I'm having a lean Christmas (I work at a start up no bonuses or back salary as hoped), but I was thinking of getting one...

    I Survived the TO Power Outage w/ Batteries to Spare!

    Anyone else hit? Our power was down nearly 48 hours. We borrowed a gas generator Sunday night, and between a gas range and a couple space heaters, kept our home liveable. But I watched my batteries dwindling -- I didn't want to plug my charger into the generator. Best thing I saw during the...

    Ordering From Canada - Delays, Duty, Etc?

    Greetings; I've only managed to find one vendor in Canada that sells Provaris (PRovarii?), and if I go this route it would mean paying up to $50 extra and waiting up to 10 extra days for delivery if the model/colour I want isn't in stock. Has anyone north of the border ordered directly from...

    Greetings; After buying a mech mod that will become my ADV device -- I like it! -- I started looking around for some good battery cases, and came up with the following idea: The battery inside is an 18500. I could only find a single pill bottle at home, but i'm sure one of the local...

    Ohm Meter Question; Regulated Mod Reading Good Enough?

    Greetings; I've just ordered my first rba (Kayfun 3.1 clone), and i'm really looking forward to using it. I don't plan to do any sub Ohm stuff, at least not at the start, but I understand that I still need to be careful about testing the resistance levels of any coils that I build. My question...

    Smoktech Natural Telescoping vs Non-Telescoping - Advice?

    Greetings; I'm looking to buy my first mech mod, and the Smoktech 'Natural' is on my short list (it was recommended by someone I trust at a local vape shop). Is there a big diff between the Telescoping and fixed-length-tube Naturals, in any significant way other than appearance? Does one...
