    Whats new in MTL?

    I’ve been using the SXK Doggystyle (clone) since late 2017. I’ve been thinking about grabbing one of the top-fill “2k18” models but it’s 2 years old by now; I've been rather out of the loop since then though, is there anything new and sexy I should be looking at in the realm of MTL flavor...

    Well **** me, right?

    So how’s your day going? You don’t really need ceramic tweezers anyway, right?

    Geekvape Aegis Legend

    I received my prize from Heaven Gifts today, I'm so excited! I didn't really care what color I got, but secretly I kind of hoped it wasn't the orange one. And indeed, I got the Stealth Black! Hurray! I took it out on the patio earlier and snapped a photo (sorry for potato): Unfortunately...

    Different wire choices (in general, and for claptons specifically)?

    So I'm (fairly) comfortable with standard round-wire kanthal builds, and lately I've been getting into SS as well. I chose SS because of its versatility in temp/wattage and even mech mods, and I've heard it has the "cleanest" taste, but I don't know much else about the different wire types...

    I made my first clapton wire!

    First attempt was a horrible mess, but on my second try I managed to get a good run over 8 1/2" long: It's 26/30ga Kanthal, since that's all I had available (or 26/28 SS but I wanted the thinner outer wrap, and since it's my first shot at Claptons I figured I wanted to use the same wire...

    Do you re-use plastic bottles?

    ...and/or wash new ones before use? I'm wondering about the child-proof caps. And, for that matter, same with the polycone caps I use on my glass bottles. I don't want to wash them with soap or anything because I'm afraid I could never be sure I've rinsed them clean. No matter how much I...

    [Gore] I experienced my first vaping-related injury

    ...oh the horror! I was coiling up my Kayfun Lite the other day when I stabbed myself in the thumb with a bit of 28ga stainless steel. I've done this many times with guitar strings in the past, but this is the first time it's happened with vaping wire. Is this how Iron Man got his powers?

    What's a LiPo?

    Time and time again, I've seen people post something to the effect of "never use a mod with a built-in LiPo battery, they are much more dangerous than the Li-ion batteries that are used in mods with replaceable batteries." And it's left me wondering, does anybody actually know what a "LiPo"...

    My scale, and single drops

    I have this scale: 500g x 0.01g High Precision Digital Scale SF-400D2 Counting w/ USB Wall Adapter and I've noticed something odd when weighing individual drops. If I'm at the end of an ingredient i.e. the scale has some weight on it already after the tare, I can add one drop at a time, and the...

    Build for 60 watts?

    I have a mod that will do 60 watts, but I usually vape at half that or less. Just for fun, I wanna build a build that can handle all that power. What do you suggest? I've got Kanthal and SS316L both in 26 & 28g sizes. I can't make a Clapton but I could probably twist some wire if that's not low...

    Vapin' and drinkin'

    What kinds of flavors do you like to vape when you're having a drink or three? I've noticed that things like Fruit Loops and Strawberry Cream don't pair well with my bourbon...

    Can someone tell me what an "RDTA" is?

    I guess my last post was too abrasive for some folks, because it got reported and deleted within minutes of posting, so I'll try to be on my best behavior this time around. I legitimately don't understand what a "dripping tank atomizer" is supposed to mean. To me, those terms are mutually...

    Why watts?

    The first e-cigs were unregulated devices, then we had regulated fixed-voltage, then variable voltage, then variable wattage, and now we even have regulated fixed-wattage devices like the Endura T18 (regulated to 14 watts, non-adjustable.) My question is, why watts? They say it makes it...

    Dihydrogen Monoxide - the Silent Killer.

    Dihydrogen Monoxide - the Silent Killer. Dihydrogen monoxide is a little harmless looking little chemical with the molecular structure of H-O-H. This little molecule, however, is not as innocent as it may seem. If ingested in large enough quantities it can be fatal. Inhalation can be fatal...

    Rebuilding "new" Kanger Protank 3 heads - nichrome, or...?

    I don't want to keep buying new coil heads, but at the same time I'd like to continue using my little Kanger tanks (Evod 2 and Mini-PT3). They both use the same ("new" dual coil, with the enclosed wick) heads. I've seen only one video on rebuilding these heads, they put a single vertical coil...

    RDA Glass-top RDAs?

    I've seen a couple of RDAs like the Nixon v2 or the Fishbone RDA that have a clear glass top cap. Are there any others that you know of that come with a clear top? Or perhaps any after-market glass tops and what models they will fit?

    "Well THAT was dumb..." or, does anyone else do this?

    Like, all the damn time. *Hits mod* That seems a little dry. *Checks RDA* Yep time to redrip. *Sits there for a minute* *Hits mod* Hmm, seems a little dry... etc. And just earlier today, I almost, ALMOST took a hit with no top cap on the RDA. Now That woulda left a funny-looking burn mark...

    US-sourced nicotine

    ...does it exist? I was under the impression that all our nic base came out of Europe or India, but when I mentioned that in the comments section of a Facebook post by a vendor which claims to use all US-sourced ingredients, they said "the company they use" (didn't give a name, obv) is based in...
