    Need advice from knowledgeable vapers

    For cheap ejuice, try these guys Vape Juice - 120ml just $11.99! - ELiquid Depot. I used to buy mine there and they're pretty decent juices. I made the switch about a year ago to make my own ejuice and you can save a lot of money there, but it requires an initial investment so that might not...

    Innokin Giveaway! Win their three top tanks!

    I do both MTL and DTL, but prefer DTL. Right now my favorite tank is the Devpo Blotto. Running it on temp control with my own SS316l coils. Best vape I've had yet!

    Exploding E-cigs on the news....

    Good point. It is all about money. The "exploding e-cig incidents" just gives them excuses to go through with the regulations.

    Exploding E-cigs on the news....

    I was just watching the news and saw a piece on the terrible dangers of E-cigs exploding in people's pockets. I think we all know that these incidents are happening because of user error. These freaking ...... are going to ruin vaping for all of us because they don't understand battery safety...

    Looking for new tank suggestions.

    I recently did the math on my setup and first, I have a Tesla Invader 3 mod, so I guess I have a regulated mod. At the voltage I set it on, usually around 5, and with the coils I build, usually around .5 ohms, I'm pushing about 50 to 60 watts.

    Looking for new tank suggestions.

    Honestly, I don't know right off hand how many watts. I have an unregulated dual 18650 series mod and I just haven't done the math on the wattage. Maybe someone else on here with a regulated mod and an Avacado could answer that better? Sorry.

    Chances of an e-cig blowing up in my face?

    Oh, and rounding down on maximum current discharge is always a good idea. I use Samsung 25Rs and NEVER draw over 18 amps. I play it safe. Great point!

    Chances of an e-cig blowing up in my face?

    Yeah, it would be 4.2. I mentioned Yeah, it would be 4.2 fully charged. As far as the maximum current discharge, I was just giving a general example. You can look up for your batteries easily by Googling or searching on this forum and find out all of the stats for your batteries. Thanks.

    Looking for new tank suggestions.

    My favorite 2 are the Geekvape Avacado 24 and the Wotofo Serpent Mini. Both deliver huge clouds and excellent flavor. The Serpent Mini is a single coil RTA and the Avacado is a dual coil with an option to use as a single coil, which I do because for me the dual coil builds on it are just too...

    Chances of an e-cig blowing up in my face?

    I see others gave links to battery safety for vaping, and that's a great place to start. Most batteries have a maximum current output of 20 to 25 amps. So just take the voltage of your battery, usually 3.7 for single battery mods, divide by the ohms of your build and that will tell you how...

    Chances of an e-cig blowing up in my face?

    You've got great equipment, but seriously Google Ohm's law for vaping and get yourself an ohmmeter. A simple decent ohmmeter for vaping is fairly cheap and can let you know what ohms your builds are so you can save yourself from a nasty mishap. Here's an...

    need sub ohm vaping advice.

    Wow! Face palm, indeed! Sorry, I meant that they're limited if you are NOT building your own coils!

    Dual 18650 Series Battery Safety

    Excellent. Thank you so much. I can vape without fear of blowing off my hand now! LOL That's exactly what I wanted to know with formulas and all. I wasn't sure how the voltage control would figure in, either.

    Dual 18650 Series Battery Safety

    Ok. Simple enough. I don't know why I was trying to make it more complicated than that, but I was. Thanks for the info!

    Dual 18650 Series Battery Safety

    I've always used an unregulated dual 18650 in parallel mod. Just recently, I aquired an unregulated dual 18650 in series mod (specifally a Tesla Invader 3). I've looked everywhere on here and can't quite find information on dual series battery safety. Can someone help me out here. I've got...

    Tesla Invader 3 Series Dual 18650 MOD

    Same here. I love the simplicity of it! I'm tired of all the fancy stuff as well. Just build a nice coil, break out the juice, and enjoy!
