    Geekvape Griffin 25 RTA

    Ahh, ok - you have the top airflow version, I just have the regular one without that seal. I really hope you have a spare one.

    Geekvape Griffin 25 RTA

    @chazz80 I know the seal you mean - the one that seals onto the top of the glass tank right? When I've cleaned mine out, I've found that the seal is stuck firmly to the top of the glass, and I've been really worried about breaking it by pulling it (gently) off. I haven't looked to see if they...

    Geekvape Griffin 25 RTA

    Maybe a combination of a dry tank and 'inhaling-after-letting-go-of-the-button' is the answer - not sure I want to commit long term to the latter however, gonna be difficult to chop-n-change techniques for different tanks. That right there is a solution, just buy more of them and rotate!! :D...

    Geekvape Griffin 25 RTA

    I agree chazz80 - I turn the JFC by gripping the glass tank, it's a bit stiff but it works for me. As for the 'inhaling-after-letting-go-of-the-button' technique, I've been giving it a try also - no seepage for me yet, but my tank has been dry for a couple of days, and I'm breaking in a new...

    Geekvape Griffin 25 RTA

    Sorry if it seemed like I was suggesting you personally change your technique, perhaps I should have phrased it differently - I was just thinking out loud....figuratively speaking! Lol I will try to remember to test this, but my memory isn't too good either! :D Not gonna build my hopes up...

    Geekvape Griffin 25 RTA

    @chazz80, maybe I'm not as conservative as I first thought! :D My 'usual' build (32g/26g kanthal A1 claptons - 7 wraps each side) results in around 0.45 ohms, at 50 watts on my Chieftain (and also my Disguiser....unsurprisingly! :) ) And yes indeed, my juice consumption seems to go up...

    Geekvape Griffin 25 RTA

    I'm relatively new to the RTA scene, and since I only recently (a few months back) learned how to wind claptons efficiently, I throw them onto everything. I haven't begun to experiment with different builds yet, though I'm sure I will. Also, I don't have any ohm testing meters yet, and through...

    Hey, just wanted to say thanks for your advice on wicking the Aromamizer Supreme - I've had no tank dumps since re-wicking yesterday - cheers! :-)

    Geekvape Griffin 25 RTA

    Don't worry mate, I think this is a terrific tank, and besides the seeping (I wouldn't describe it as full-on leaking) I've been very happy with it - the seeping is merely mildly distracting and shouldn't be regarded as a deal-breaker. I don't have the top-air version though. Indeed, the juice...

    Geekvape Griffin 25 RTA

    Welcome to the RTA world! I am fairly new myself, and also love the Griffin, so I pulled mine apart yesterday, and was determined to try and figure out why they seep from the bottom (and sometimes the top) of the the air control ring. Bakseated1s good quality closeup pic shows exactly where the...

    Aromamizer RDTA by Steam Crave

    Ahh....you should have been 100% :D - because that's where I've gone wrong!!! Like the numbskull that I am I thought we were supposed to leave the juice holes clear, so I've been painstakingly poking them away from them!! I will revise my build technique accordingly - no need for me to bore you...

    Aromamizer RDTA by Steam Crave

    I sure did. I probably didn't use the correct nomenclature - I believe I called it a juice hole in my earlier post - thanks for the warning though ismokeinbinary, I do need to be reminded regularly!! :-) So, I've pulled it all apart again and cleaned and lubricated all the seals (as it...

    Does vaping change alcohol consumption?

    This is an interesting topic, however, since there have been no clinical trials (that I know of) all we can really do is speculate, using our own anecdotal experience. I used to be a moderate smoker and drinker, and found it impossible to drink without a cigarette. Since my serious RTA nearly...

    I've upgraded my ole Ego, how did I survive?

    Ahh the memories....I fondly remember my old Joyetech eGo C - it lasted me for well over a year and I do believe I only put half a dozen or so atomizers through it! Maybe my taste buds are shot, but they just lasted and lasted - I couldn't burn them out (as hard as I might try sometimes!) It...

    Where is The Modfather 30mm?

    I like tanks! Big ones! I will say that I don't know a great deal about them, but I know what I like, and I like the ones I have. So whilst on my browsing travels I came across this monster RTA - The Modfather 30mm. It looks utterly and completely awesome with a 9ml capacity, and if it wasn't...

    help with clapton coil

    I'm fairly new to box mods and batteries (6 months or so) and I thought (was lead to believe) that Efest was an ok brand - it's all they sell in my local vape shop. Thanks for the heads-up sonic, and although I haven't had any problems with mine yet (I bought 4 18650, 3500mAh, 20A) I'll feel a...

    Aromamizer RDTA by Steam Crave

    My black 7ml Supreme arrived this morning, and I was pretty pleased with it at first - after a strip down and clean, I threw on my usual build and filled, and promptly lost all the juice through the air holes when I cracked them open - this was with the juice holes closed! I'm gonna put it down...

    Movkin Disguiser

    I apologise for the double post! Ready to go, gonna have to redo it however, I dragged the camera strap across the hot coil whilst trying to do an arty close-up and now I have a melted plastic flavour, what a noob I am!! Movkin JC25 RTA on the right, Geekvape Griffin 25 on the left...

    Movkin Disguiser

    Mine has just arrived and first impressions are good - it's quite a heavyweight though, no batteries or tank in it and it already seems to weigh more than my Chieftain + batteries + full tank! Build quality is pretty good - everything is tight, one minor nitpick....the red cover that came with...

    Geekvape Griffin 25 RTA

    Just thought I'd chime in on this topic - I've had both Griffin's (22 & 25) for several months now, and like others I've had seeping from the 25 whereas the 22 is bone dry! I even did a side-by-side test with identical builds (32g/26g kanthal claptons - 7 wraps both sides - 0.46 ohms) same...
