    Any mods out there with a wattage lock?

    My old Geekvape Aegis Legend is finally dead with a "Battery Low Protection" error that refuses to go away. The Aegis Legend 2 I replaced it with is OK, I guess, but it does not allow me to lock the wattage, which means if it gets accidentally pressed I instantly fry my wicks, which is...

    burning and/or bown discoloration of wick against coil

    I have been building my own atomizers for a few years now, on and off. Recently (within the last six months) I started using RTA style devices exclusively, so I have built and wicked quite a few. Rayon has become my goto material for wicking, as for me it seems to last longer and generally...

    overwhelmed by all the options... looking for good MTL RTA, details inside

    Howdy ECF, I am looking for some assistance wading through the large number of RTA options on the market right now. Here's my situation: The Innokin Ares, my first RTA, has been my main drag for about four months now and it isn't working out for me. It needs a 3mm diameter coil to get enough...

    18650 charger with voltage cutoff under 4.2 volts?

    I am a newbie to regulated mods with external batteries. After much reading, I decided to purchase the LG HG2 IMR18650 batteries for their reliability and convenient compromise between draw and capacity. The literature I reviewed suggests that a battery's lifespan can be greatly improved if it...

    Burning out atomizers: causes and precautions

    You all know the flavor... I call it gluey, but it has been variously described as metallic, melted plastic, burnt, off, acrid, and others: it's the flavor that an atomizer gone bad imparts to your vaping experience. And it is not pleasant. Once a disposable coil head gets it, you gotta...

    Looking to try dripping...

    Never done rebuildables before, but in light of recent events I figure its time to explore my options. What are the best/most popular models for this? Is there anything beginner friendly, yet veteran worthy out there? There are so many brands and models available... I don't even know where to...

    Are there any current generation atomizers that run well at 8-10 watts?

    Hello everybody. I have been using the SmokTech Micro ADC-II M-Core 2.5 ohm atomizers for about 1.5 years now. The vapor production is excellent at around 8 watts, which means my batteries last forever. After finding out that the hardware I have been using is now out of production, I am...

    Bill O'Reilly

    What do you think of the man and his show? My 2 cents: he's a pompous .... He refuses to listen to his guests and even refuses to let them speak if he doesn't like what they are saying.

    VG flavor over time

    I have found that the flavor of my stored VG juices has changed over time. It has become noticeably weak after a week of storage. What can be done to counteract or prevent this?

    Anyone try FlavourArt Peppermint?

    I am wondering what results you had. Mine have been somewhat odd. Please respond if you have tried this. My description: 5-6 vapes of gasoline flavor followed by an entire cart of plain VG flavor, though it does leave a kinda cool sensation in my mouth. I used 8 drops in 15ml of juice.

    Bananacicle

    Here is my latest creation. It is my greatest to date, which probably isn't saying much given that I have only mixed 5 batches so far. In any case, I quite like it and thought you all might like it too. My measurements are all in drops being as I have not been ambitious enough to buy more...

    Anyone here filling their blank V4L cartomizers with VG based liquid?

    I seem to be killing blank V4L cartos about 60% of the time doing so. The cartomizers that survive the first filling seem to work fine for many fillings afterwards. Info: I am using 20:80 Water:VG in my mix. I am filling my cartos by adding 10 drops via carto condom, spinning, adding 10 more...

    Trouble filling blank cartmizers...

    I have found that filling new, empty cartomizers fresh from the box has an unseen pitfall: Sometimes a freshly filled blank cartomizer just burns the hell out of all parts of my mouth when I use it. No amount of tweaking I can manage has been able to fix a cartomizer so affected once it has...

    Is there a recommended way to store distilled water for maximum lifespan?

    I just bought a 1 gallon jug of distilled water for DIY mixing. Obviously, I needed much less than 1 gallon for my DIY vaping purposes. Water tends to get pretty yucky when standing for extended periods... Will this water still be good when I need to use it again? Is there a method to its...
