    Retro Deck

    I bought a new mech/rda combination and by all means it is beautiful. One problem: when I placed the order it looked like this, but in purple. Shortly after placing the order they said it was out of stock and changed the pictures - the drip tip was changed to a black tip rather than metal (which...

    Samsung 20S available of Fogstar

    I just received an email stating that the Samsung 20S are available on Fogstar. Obviously I ordered some before letting anyone else know, because last time I was too late!

    Variable Voltage Battery Safety

    Perhaps I'm wrong but I believe these two stipulations are correct: 1) With a variable wattage device you use watts law - max wattage = nx3xCDR, where n is the number of batteriesin the device 2) With a single-battery mechanical mod you use ohms law - where V/r <= CDR With a variable voltage...

    Pouring Vegetable Glycerin

    This is probably a really stupid question, but does anyone have any advice for pouring VG (and nic/VG solution) into bottles when making e-liquids? I've heard that using syringes and blunt needles helps, but what do you do when the level in the original container is too low to reach with the...

    Charging at 2 or 4.1 amps?

    The Xtarr Over4Slim claims to be able to charge two batteries at 4.1amps...I'm just curious as to whether this is even safe? From the website: "The powerful chip in the devices will automatically charge your device at the correct rate based on internal measured resistance. Do not worry about...

    What cell is under the Vapcell Black "38a" 18650 wrap?

    From Mooch's tests (threads closed now, or I would have asked there) these cells look like incredible performers. I've ordered two as my LG HB6's seem to be nearing the end of their useful lifespan - hitting less hard at full charge and requiring regular changing and charging. Furthermore, the...

    Vaping Dreams

    Due to my medication I have incredibly vivid dreams every single night. I hate it. They're almost always nightmares, make very little sense, and wake me up frequently throughout the night. Sometimes vaping crops up but always in odd ways. One dream involved lighting cigarettes with a...

    Is it safe to cover airflow holes with tape, or to paint an rda?

    Two questions but I felt it isn't worth posting two separate threads. 1) I like quite restricted airflow and many dual coil devices try to pretend to have a single coil option (just get something else!!) by having three airflow holes on the outside of the top cap. With some of my reload clones...

    I've got 7 big bottles of subpar ejuice and 1 without...Odd DIY advice needed

    As stated in the title, I have 7 200ml bottles of subpar ejuice. I'm worried about wasting money I guess... I have been experimenting with flavourings for a while but feel like I never get anything right. I've had a few concoctions go well but I never recreate them correct because they've been...

    Charging and when to replace batteries

    I'm curious how often I should replace batteries. I'm currently using 5 LG HB6's for my mech mods and I've read not to charge fully to 4.2V so I take them out of the charger (Xtar VC4) when they're at 4.2 on the dial but before the light changes green to indicate full charge. With my current...

    Cheap 810 drip tips

    I somehow lost a drip tip earlier today and the nearby shops are asking for £10-£15 each - a ludicrous price considering the rda to which it belonged cost £10 itself! What sites are good for purchasing cheap 810 drip tips? Ideally with the ability to select a colour (Purple..); I like resin drip...

    Vertical Coil Oriented RDA?

    Just curious if anyone knows of anything other than the three I have found thus far: Lucid, VLS and Glory. Most stock coils for non-rebuildable tanks are vertically oriented with the wicking around it but I can't find a rebuildable device ideal for this style using exotic coil builds rather...

    Best (or Worst..) Bottom Airflow RDA?

    Title says all really. Currently in love with the Reload (*clone) and I'm not sure if my Wasp counts as bottom or side airflow in all honesty. The former is a pain in the bum. But, as any masochist can tell you, eventually that pain pays off. Can't imagine a better RDA in all honesty - taste...

    What coil to build for MTL?

    Long story short - what kind of build for a flavourful MTL hit on Merlin Mini? I have a huge selection of SS316 wire available. You can skip the reason below if you like... I am not a MTL vaper - I like a very restricted DTL hit. However, I hate hearing my dad coughing his guts up and he hates...

    Single vs Dual Coil - Same Voltage

    One of the posts on my Reload (clone) broke so I took out the coil and blocked out the excess surface area. I expected it to be hotter - I'm running it on a mech mod so the same voltage would be running through half the wire mass and I thought that higher resistance means more energy is lost as...

    Why hasn't my mech exploded?

    TL;DR: Obviously I don't want my mech to explode on me. I used a 0.07Ohm build on a mech for a few days (having measured it with a faulty device) and haven't had my mech heat up, the batteries seem fine and my face hasn't been destroyed by an explosion. How is this possible? I had a regulated...

    Help with Ammit Dual-Coil?

    I've had the Ammit Dual-Coil and Merlin Mini for a while now. Merlin Mini I think I've figured out - anything is good really but single coil vertical coils or stove tops work especially great. The Ammit though...what is the airflow doing? It feels like something is missing no matter where I...
