    Twisted/braided wire question

    DarkZero are you also on the CPF forums? The lathe in you Avatar looks like a PM1236. Think I remember seeing you doing flashlight mods. I'm always amazed at how clean some of you can kept your lathes. Mine isn't horrible but it's not wiped down after every use. You don't anything with...

    Military Intelligence

    I know for a fact that certain Ops Floors have people chain vaping away. I haven't been told that I have to go outside to the smoking area but I do out of common courtesy. It looks to much like smoking to bother trying to explain myself to everyone. I'm pretty sure the 2009 Obama tobacco...

    !!!military personnel beware!!!

    Wow didn't realize that separation pay was deducted from you disability pay. That is some pretty crappy goings on. Me and the wife both joined the AF in 1999. I got out for a bit and re-entered again. We are both E-6's and she has some sever neck damage from her C3-C7. Bulging disc...

    1st deployment to sandbox. Shipment from U.S possible?

    I hope all goes well. I miss the days when I could ship something to the sand box for free at the base post office. My wife sent a very very large care package for one of her airman that was deployed and I told her to go the on base post office route. She told me that don't do that anymore...

    New to Carto's. What is a good PG/VG ratio?

    I just recieved my Boge carto's along with a F16. It's night and day. I just threw away my money on those other carto's. I tried on 2 more of them and they work for a bit then stop wicking and burn. The boges are much better. Also It seems easier to sense when it's starting to get dry. So...

    Micro Coils to increase Vapor, flavor & TH

    I tried with SS 500 rolled very tight and used my needle tip to coil the 28 awg kanthal on it. Came out like pdid's did. Even with the wick hole in the RSST only filled 3/4 I don't get leaks. I'm going to try with silica next and stuff that in the RSST and see how it works. It does heat from...

    New to Carto's. What is a good PG/VG ratio?

    I have a bunch of clearo's, atomizers, and now a few RBA's. I kept seeing everyone talk about how much better the taste is from a carto so I thought I would give it a go and got some cheapies from FastTech. http://www.fasttech.com/products/1411/10002095/1352304 are the ones I purchased. I...

    First copper mod

    Looks great. You going to put a protective coating on the outside? I'm thinking of building a copper hybrid. The switch is the one thing I'm trying to work out. I like the flush button on the GG but don't want to copy theirs so I'm thinking of a simpler make to make one. Sent from my Amazon...

    Mechanical Mod/RBA safety question

    Lots of good advise in this thread. One thing that was brushed upon was over discharging a battery. I measured the resistance of my Samsung 18650's and it was pretty high like around 50 ohms. Think I'll recheck them along with my AWs but my high quality lipos read around 3-4 ohms a cell and when...

    vamo version3

    V2 here. I wouldn't buy the v3 personally based on looks. Even if it performed as good as a provari. Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk 2

    Brass tube size for threading connectors 801,901,510,400

    For the ID you should use a reamer. Only way to make the hole round. A drill bit will not make a round hole and it will always go oversize. I use carbide drills to get close but with only .015" to remove I would use a reamer. A dremel is worse than using a drill bit and at this hole size would...

    Ever have people try to re-recruit you?

    I usually let them try my PV. If they like it I'll even let them barrow my Vamo that is my backup for a day. Usually ends in them wanting to buy one. One of my good friends likes it so much he is getting me a Provari. I don't care what others think so if they feel its gay so be it. I sure do...

    Safe to leave charging overnite?

    Wow some of you are very cautious. I only use good to excellent quality chargers. I've never had one charge a LiPo over 4.21v. Usually just 4.2 but my older Turnigy charger would sometimes go to 4.21v. I've retired that charger and it's only used for parallel charging mass quantities of...

    smoketek or segelie

    I just got my Sigelei Zmax Brushed SS and It's a champ. I know it supposed to be the same chipset as the Vamo, but I think I like the vape from it just a tad more. It also reads the addy resistance a little closer. Also I had accidently purchased some MT3 attys for my ProTank. So I got a few...

    Thinking about a Vamo or a MVP

    How did you get it for less than $30? NM. Once you register the price drops. You are buying from the mainland directly. Just know that if you do experience an issue their is no returning it or warranty. I know as I deal with then occasionally. usually shipping is counter productive. If...

    Whats better Xstar XP2 or Nitecore i2

    After doing some looking around and research I got the Xtar VP1. It will charge at 1A which isn't great but I guess these small LiPo and LiMn cells don't really like getting much more current. I can shove 3A in them on my other chargers but they ramp up in voltage and then it's top off kicks...

    Fellow N00BS... Have an all day vape yet?

    I got a chance to load up the Frosty Clove. It's an excellent vape. It has a massive clove after taste. It took a few vapes to get used to it but I ended up not really being able to put it down. So if your other purchase doesn't work out I would give it a shot. I think you will like it...

    Thinking about a Vamo or a MVP

    I just picked up a Sigelei Zmax from varitube. You can use the ECF discount code of varitube10 for an additional %10 off for around $76.50. That comes with 2x 18650 2200mah batteries, a zipper case, a clearo for that price. You just need to get a battery charger. The batteries last all day...
