    I think I fried my charger, possibly batteries

    So, first I admit I'm an idiot. I somehow left 2 Samsung 25R batteries on my unplugged xtar vp2 for about 2 weeks. Remembered about them today, tried plugging it in. Left bay reads 3.6 v with a green led for both batteries I've tried. Right one reads .8v and flashes red. Think it has to recover...

    Converting Percentages (double check my math please)

    I know this is probably a really easy answer, buy my brain's not cooperating with me. I have a diy recipe (A) that 8% is supposed to be equal to 12% of a commercial flavor(B). If I have another recipe that calls for 10% of B. How would I figure out how much of A to use in place of B? The best...

    Vamo battery positive pin thread?

    I was looking at trying to turn my vamo (V7 from fasttech) into a side by side/double barrel/whatever you want to call it. Still in planning stages at this point, but I wiggled off the first tube from the control section and saw the positive pin (that the battery contacts) is female threaded. I...

    Safe peanut butter? Should I even worry?

    I've been vaping on "100%" VG but I'm wanting to try out DIY, and figured might as well dive in the deep end and try for a peanut butter cup (ice cream), since it's one of my favorite snacks. Addicted to peanut butter cup blizzards from dairy queen, but my waist line is showing it. I've spent...

    Vamo V7 30W (fasttech) no timer

    I just got a Vamo V7 30w model from FastTech yesterday and have been playing around with it. I noticed in the direction book it said there was a 10 second timer. Mine doesn't seem to have that, I counted up to 15 and it was still firing. Also, when I go to the menu, I don't have the same...

    Pointlessly Proud

    I did it! I wrapped my first coil and it works, beautifully. Okay, so it was my 2nd coil. First one wrapped around the screwdriver that I needed to use to tighten it to the build deck. D'oh! Rookie mistake. Ran to the garage, grabbed what I believe to be a 6d nail (around 2.4mm) fussed around...

    new charger or new mod?

    I have a Vamo in the mail, since I already have 18650s and a beast of a charger from when I was into radio control. The wife just informed me we're going on vacation for a week, woohoo. My charger is a but bulky and requires a separate power supply. So, now I'm stuck between buying a new...

    I want to build a mod, have questions.

    So, I was going to get a pipe as a prop for costumes, that way I had something to do with my hands. Then I started thinking about e cigarettes, started reading. Now, I think I want to build a mechanical mod. Still mainly as a prop, but functional, help keep my anxiety in check. I know I want it...
