    Cthulhu RTA V2 (similar posts to the velocity rda)

    Apologies RAWRferal. I thought getting older was supposed to help with that premature thing, lol. I just got excited about possibly finding the "missing link" to what I suspect is a wicking issue that I posted before I finished reading everything and discovering you have already answered my...

    Cthulhu RTA V2 (similar posts to the velocity rda)

    So, am I understanding you correctly when you say to trim the wick even with your placement of the screw-down ring that keeps the "tails" in place? I love this RTA, but I suspect that even with the juice control all the way open I may be making a wrong assumption that the tails of the wick...

    New Cthulhu RTA - 4/5

    Does anyone have experience with the Orchid V4? I love the V4 with the exception of the bottom fill only and the fact it does not have a glass tank. To the point, I want to "upgrade" from the V4 and am seeking input from the forum as to whether or not the Cthulhu Mod RTA would be a good choice.

    FUhatten or Stingray X Clone by Infinite??

    Well, I have a nemisis and should be getting my new stingray x in tomorrow. From what I can tell they are very similar in function and performance...the stingray looks much cooler though. Plus, it is "self-adjusting" at the top to make the connection with the tank and/or atty perfect every...

    Most Common Coil Building Misinformation I've Received

    The reason kanthal is a good wire to use is because it is very heat resistive and gets hot very fast. All a coil is, in reference to vaping, is a wire wound resistor without the ceramic covering. The ceramic dissipates the heat to keep your circuit cooler. Without the ceramic, you basically...

    Most Common Coil Building Misinformation I've Received

    Think of it this way. voltage=water pressure, impedance=the diameter of the hose you are using, and amps=how fast the water is actually coming out of the hose. Let's say a fully charged 18650 battery is your outside water spigot and you connect your everyday water hose to it to fill a...

    Most Common Coil Building Misinformation I've Received

    That is why the "language barrier" was confusing to me. You are the first to point out, That would have made sense to me. Not everyone that vapes understands electronic components or terms associated with a basic circuit. They just experiment with wire until they find a gauge they can build...

    Not getting good flavor

    This may be the wrong place to post this or it might not be anything that will help you out. It helped me get better flavor out of all of my set-ups though. If you are a "lung hitter" a wider diameter drip tip will be better for you, if you are like me and pull the vapor into your mouth before...

    Brand new to this

    When I first started I was using the standard low quality batteries and tanks like you can find at most of the little kiosk booths at your local mall. I was not real impressed and spent more time returning/trading out defective items than I did enjoying a good vape. I went to a local vape...

    How far should the coils be from the air holes to eliminate/reduce the leaking issue?

    Matching the Flavor I get from my Orchid V4 to the Flavor I Get From My Plume Veil Dripper

    I recently purchased an Orchid V4 to use with my Nemisis. I love the flavor I get from my Plume Veil but lets face it, dripping and driving is not the safest thing in the world, lol. I'm relatively new to the world of mechanical mods and rebuildable attys/tanks and have basically been teaching...

    Most Common Coil Building Misinformation I've Received

    I'm an electronics engineer and when I first started learning to build my own coils the information I was getting from my local vaping shops did not "click" with me. Until...I figured out the vaping community uses a slightly different vocabulary. As I watched them wrap my coil it dawned on me...

    Hey everyone new to mech mods etc had some questions

    Ohm's Law has been around much longer than regulated mods. Try more wraps or higher gauge wire. Increasing your resistance will compensate for your voltage input and lower your wattage. Also, if you are using cotton, make sure to unroll your cotton ball and get all the threads running in...
