    Aspire official statement on Atlantis coils material

    Elvis has the right of it, it's rayon (sometimes known under the brand name cellucotton). I started writing up a post for the other thread about the other material, but have been really short on time. It's known under it's other name as mineral wool (they're really trying not to use their normal...

    Vapored alcohol gonna give E-Cigs a bad name [RANT]

    Considering most spirits are "vaporized" off of a mash and then condensed to create the alcohol you drink, it's been around much earlier than that. ;) OP: I understand being taken aback when you see something like that, and immediately associating it with what you care about -- amunition for...

    Juice conservation - is it possible?

    The rebuildable RTA can be whatever ohm you wish it to be, and is probably the best way to conserve eliquid. You can only drop your wattage so far with the OCC coils, because you have to get the decently-fat coils going and once you do they chuck off vapor. There's nothing saying you can't put...

    Juice conservation - is it possible?

    Aside from switching to the 1.2ohm coil, sadly not really. All those big dense flavorful clouds you're blowing out is eliquid that you're vaporizing yet isn't settling inside you to get absorbed. You might really look into the DIY section (Susan or Rat will be along with links), or juice...

    coil question

    Hey mate, caught this late (Gilmore Girls marathon) but hopefully you haven't been making yourself sick as no, you don't want to use fuse wire for it. :) Fuse wire is generally a tin/lead alloy, sometimes around copper. Besides the fact that it's designed to deteriorate when heated past a...

    How I Clean and Dry Burn My Nautilus Mini Successfully

    Aspire says: 1. Don't clean them in any way, including water. 2. If you want to change flavors without any mixing, use unflavored eliquid. 3. Use at most 2 weeks, or x puffs (I forget, it should say on blister pack) Eigate/Aspire, in this case, is kind of crazy, as they know many aren't...

    "However bad you thought smoking was, it’s even worse." (& Happy Vday)

    Well, hopefully she'll continue the tradition of women giving me chance after chance after I make stupid assumptions and still be my valentine. I'm a little relieved, though after rereading her phrasing I'm paranoid she might be requiring me to wear it.

    "However bad you thought smoking was, it’s even worse." (& Happy Vday)

    Wait, Amraann is a guy right? As I know an Amraan... and there are no girls on the internet.. but there's the kitten avatar but there's a guy obsessed with his hamster on here, the avatar is no help either. And mojitos are my summer drink... but the gerbil guy doesn't have it as his avatar...

    Aspire official statement on Atlantis coils material

    Congratulations Mate! My brain completely skipped over that in replying, and I feel like if your fiance ever sees this message she's going to be a little put off that you kinda buried the lead in the 2nd paragraph after talk about cotton coils and stuff. :)

    "However bad you thought smoking was, it’s even worse." (& Happy Vday)

    Further proof no one checks the tags on created threads. Done! Done! I should have you covered. If you're a man, I don't know if it'll fit but with enough lubricant all things are possible.

    New Vaper (5 mos) - Disillusioned with Industry

    Hey Therese, I really feel for you in this situation, as you most definitely aren't the only one. It's a market that's expanding almost exponentially with good/decent/bad shops and surprisingly little competition except online -- and even there it's still a serious issue (check out Mrs Ts...

    Aspire official statement on Atlantis coils material

    Similar to what MrsMojo said, it's been reported you can tell if you remove the metal screen, but I haven't seen any high-res top-down photos of the cotton coils so that people could look at theirs and compare the layers and know. Maybe MrsMojo or nopoison could do that? Yay! I know a lot of...

    Aspire official statement on Atlantis coils material

    I don't know that you did anything wrong, that's kind of why I'm interested in their design. Cotton basically holds eliquid in the gaps between the fibers, but it doesn't wick so well at all. KGD wicks better for most purposes because the fibers are aligned, even if it's fairly dense, so eliquid...

    "However bad you thought smoking was, it’s even worse." (& Happy Vday)

    I saw this earlier today and even though it's an observational study, we're mostly all vapers and everyone loves positive reinforcement: Smoking’s Toll on Health Is Even Worse Than Previously Thought, a Study Finds As mentioned this is an observational study, so you have to go into it with a...

    Aspire official statement on Atlantis coils material

    And here I didn't get you anything! Sincere thanks. The gauze is really interesting in terms of design, it'll be interesting to see how it shakes out with different VG ratios, and since you've already rebuilt these as cotton (you used japanese right?) it'll be cool to see how it compares.

    !! WARNING !! Kanger Subtank RBA Insulator Dissolving Into my Juice !!! What should I use to make one?

    I'd be really leery of this mate, as it goes against everything Kanger has told everyone else from day one, so why would one support person now change the story up to a random customer? I entirely allow for the possibility of it not being PEEK, but I also know what happens when you're conversing...

    Joyetech Delta II appears to use fiberglass/ceramic paper...

    Would you like scientific studies for what would happen if you put large amounts of arsenic in eliquid too? Or maybe a wick made of asbestos fibers? How about if you had a dripper made out of lead... after all, we know all about lead poisoning and the damage it does, but it's never been shown to...

    Joyetech Delta II appears to use fiberglass/ceramic paper...

    Hey mates, Sooooo as mentioned it turns out pbusardo had posted some tests that Joyetech had sent over, and then was asked to remove them. Specifically, "I’ve been asked to pull the test results down until my American contact with Joyetech can get their facts together and..." He removed the...

    Aspire official statement on Atlantis coils material

    Well, I want to be clear -- I am correct in that it's a common translation, but it doesn't mean that what's in them is silica, all cotton, or this monstrous ceramic paper that factories in China must be trying to use up. It just means that there are enough open questions, or enough reasonable...
