    How long do you go before changing a coil/cotton?

    Interested in how long people go or have gone before changing out the cotton or coil from their RDA? I have a 1.4 ohm microcoil wrapped with 25ga that's been in my Atomic for a good 6 weeks or so, and I doubt I will need to change it any time soon. Cotton has been in there for a couple of weeks...

    Second UK Zamplebox (Warning: Huge Posts!)

    This is my second Zamplebox, shipped to the UK in a week again. I decided to put this one in a separate thread, as there are so many pictures and a lot of text, I didn't want it to be difficult to find amongst the other thread which can be found here...

    Dual coil reaction?

    Just curious if anyone has any PG/VG reactions but only when running dual coils? Im fine running singles at any resistance from 0.5 to 2.5 ohms, but when using dual coils I get what feels like a slight reaction to one of the bases. It's nothing terrible, just feels like I can't get a proper...

    No love for 25AWG?

    Unless the search term isn't working properly, I can only see a handful of casual mentions of 25AWG. I've used 24AWG a couple of times and been pretty happy, but my new supplier was all out of 24AWG so I ordered 10 metres of 25AWG and got 25 metres instead (they must have known!). This stuff is...

    Sony 30A 18650 warm when charging?

    Just noticed that the first time I'm charging my new VTC4's, they're warm to the touch and so is the charger. I don't get this with my Panasonic 18650's, so is there anything to worry about? The best way I can explain the heat is it's like a nice temperature for bath water to be at, like a nice...

    Any need for VW if I have VV?

    So I have a Provari, which I'm more than happy with, but would like a second quality mod to fall back on if necessary and maybe even see other benefits that I'm not currently getting. I know there are debates around VV and VW, and that VW offers more consistency, but would I be gaining any more...

    Zamplebox made it to the UK! Pic Heavy

    I decided to create a separate thread to my previous one asking for UK based reviews as nobody seemed to have had experience with this. I also kept it in this section as it is based on UK prices and experience. Let's get to it! After signing up on Tuesday the 17th of March, it arrived Tuesday...

    Genuine vs Clones and safety

    I've been looking at various mechanicals lately, along with a LOT of reviews on here and YouTube. As has been the case since I joined, my attitudes are changing and the wallet is getting lighter :D I pulled the trigger on a Provari easily, and very glad that I did. Yes it was expensive, and no...

    Finally did it!!

    After a few days of filling my Aerotank up with juice that obviously needs steeping, and a dud very bad tasting coil, I decided to try to make a microcoil again early. I say early because I have an Atomic, Magma, Igo-W and a clone Kayfun on the way that are taking far too long, so tried again...

    Anyone here tried Zamplebox?

    So after going through quite a few juices, I'm finding myself swinging far more to the US made juices than any others. There are exceptions, but on the whole not many. I'm currently vaping a bubblegum flavour that actually tastes of nothing. It's UK made from a company that creates outstanding...

    Definitely not saving money :D

    I never quit smoking to save money, and it's a good job! In the last 31 days, here's what I've bought and spent on vaping, in British Pounds and converted to USD at the end: Smok Magneto, Kanger Aerotank, 18650's and charger: £84.16 Pyrex drip tip: £4.99 LT Ecigs juice: £15.24 LT Ecigs juice...

    What was your first Fasttech order and recommendations?

    So I'm thinking about making my first vape related Fasttech order and wondered what your first order consisted of? I'm feeling overwhelmed :D In case it's relevant (for accessories maybe and to avoid repeat orders), here's what I currently have: Provari Mini 2.5 Smok Magneto Kanger Aerotank...

    My IBTanked is here!

    So after reading all the reviews, and having never used a carto tank before, I decided I MUST have the most recommended one. So ordered a clear tank with anodized silver caps, a refilling drip tip, a few spare seals and a pack of five Smok pre-punched 3.2 ohm cartomizers. It was shipped March...

    Anyone have problems with multimeters?

    This is going to sound really dumb since I use a multimeter most days at work, but is it just me who has trouble measuring the resistance of a coil or RDA? When I built my first coil, I installed it into a mini dripper and tried testing between the centre pin and thread. All I got was a reading...

    Error code E8 blip?

    I have an Aerotank currently on my Provari, and was happily vaping away when I thought I would top it up. I left it for a while, switched to my dripper for a few minutes and then put the Aerotank back on. I thought I would check the resistance but it showed code 'Op' which I read means ohms...

    Which RDA did you use to learn coil building?

    I'm struggling to find any definitive answers here, but I suppose people find different platforms easier than others! Im wanting to experiment with 28AWG Kanthal and probably cotton. I've heard the Trident and it's better clones are quite easy to start on, and mixed opinions on the ease of...

    What are your vaping habits?

    When I smoked, I would have one for 5 minutes and then another a couple of hours later. My first attempt at stopping smoking I just kept up the habit with an e-cig but it didn't work for me. Now I've found the right setup, I find I have a mod in my hand for a long portion of the day. Some...

    It's finally here!

    How did I ever think things would go smoothly getting one of these things? :D I ordered this polished beauty last Sunday with guaranteed delivery on Tuesday. Tuesday morning came! Postman was on time! This is the package! Wait... 'Satin Silver Blue' Nooooo! They sent the wrong one by mistake...

    IBTanked dimensions?

    Could anyone with a standard length 22mm diameter carto tank with the long drip tip tool attached please tell me how long the whole thing is assembled, without the carto thread at the bottom, exactly as you would get it before installing the carto? I've got a quiet hour at work and I'm looking...

    Improvised Provari Cases?

    Just interested as to what people use to protect their Provaris? In the UK we don't have holsters and such as far as I know. Are there any organisers/pouches that people use that weren't specifically designed for it? Im still not sure whether I want a small pouch just for my Mini, or something...
