    Why cheap vokda?

    Iso is fine, if you look you can probably find 99%. Just let it evaporate completely before use. In some US states you can get 190 proof (95%) grain alcohol (Everclear is a common name).

    Your favorite glass RBA tank?

    Opinions aren't stated as facts. You apparently don't know what an oxymoron is. Hint: a rebuildable non-rebuildable is an oxymoron.

    Your favorite glass RBA tank?

    Says you, in an oxymoronic fashion. I disagree.

    Really? Whoosh.

    Your favorite glass RBA tank?

    Why not? They wear out, you rebuild them by replacing parts. Who decided that the parts must only be coils and wicks and o-rings?

    Your favorite glass RBA tank?

    OK, now define "rebuildable." Does having a replaceable coil assembly count, or only if you can make your own coil? Most of the common tanks/clearomizers/??? with replaceable coil assemblies can be rebuild with new coils if you really want to save the $2, although they're not designed to be...

    The Rattlesnake Effect- Why the Cheapo VV [Exception Itaste MVP] Don't Vape the Same as a Provari or DNA20D

    ...none of which matters. The reactance is on the order of micro-Ohms.

    The Rattlesnake Effect- Why the Cheapo VV [Exception Itaste MVP] Don't Vape the Same as a Provari or DNA20D

    Good luck with that - finding a thermal probe that sensitive, which can react that fast. I think you'll need a high speed IR camera.

    These iClear 16s keep juicing up my mouth

    I get condensation, which collects at the bottom, where the seal is. There's a little nipple on the silicone seal which is intended to help, but the condensation eventually builds up and ugh. I just unscrew the mouthpiece occasionally and let what's collected drain into the tank. If you tilt it...

    The Rattlesnake Effect- Why the Cheapo VV [Exception Itaste MVP] Don't Vape the Same as a Provari or DNA20D

    Calculate how many Henries in a 6 turn, 2 mm dia. coil. Now, calculate the inductive reactance of that coil at 33 Hz. After doing so, you can come back with the knowledge that the inductance is completely insignificant to this discussion, it's only the resistance which matters.

    Innokin Cool Fire 2

    The battery rating is for continuous draw. A very fast acting 7A fuse may blow in <1 second @ 14A, before there will be a problem with the battery itself. The idea is to protect against catastrophic failures (none of your figures are meaningful, because they all assume a properly functioning...

    USB passthrough vs carrying spares.

    What parasitic load? I've got an MVP, and when using it connected to USB, the charge will kick in for less than a minute after a draw (i.e. the green light goes out in less than a minute). Whatever Innokin is using as a charge algorithm is reasonable, because some would kick in for much longer...

    No, although it may. Are you thinking it's a pissing contest and it matters?

    iTaste MVP v2 Owners Group

    What makes you think it's PWM? It probably is, because that's how modern high efficiency voltage converters work, but a quick look on a scope only shows noise at lower frequencies - I suspect it uses something like an LTC3113, which can be setup with a switching frequency from 300 kHz to 2 MHz.

    ProVari vs MVPv2

    "Throw away" is often used describe the MVP. But look at reality - say the battery lasts 1 1/2 years, then you buy a new one. For the cost of a Provari, you can buy 7 1/2 years worth of MVPs. Of course, the Provari will need 5 new $10 batteries during that time, more than enough to buy another...

    Peeved about my local vape shop

    There are obviously lots of people who don't understand how local economies work, so they complain about that "profit crap." I suspect they'll be surprised when they find the only jobs left in town are at McD's or Wallyworld, and wonder why.
