    Why MOD?

    I build mods because I'm cheap. I don't like spending $60 - $120 on a device that is essentially a battery, switch and atomizer when I can build one myself for under $20 - $30 with the batteries and charger included. I was looking for an all-day battery in the beginning, then I wanted to try...

    Dripping without drip tip?

    Sure, you can tail pipe it (suck directly on the atty) or just use an empty (no filler) cart. Remove the cart, drip 3 to 4 drops directly on the atty, replace empty cart and enjoy. You get a drip tip to avoid having to take the empty cart off each time you drip. Try it and when you're ready...

    Great Customer Service!

    About 3 weeks after I placed an order with eastmall, I realized that even though the Paypal transaction went through, the order did not process on the eastmall website. When I sent my Paypal email receipt to eastmall support, Rick responded right away and after a few confirmation emails back...

    The only thing that seems to work for me on-the-go.

    I use a shorty wide-mouth delrin drip tip from supertmanufacturing.com. It let's you drop right onto the atty. I usually drop three drops onto the 510 LR atty and it lasts me about the same amount of drags as an analog. To keep it cool, I take about a 2-3 second drag, let off on the button...

    how much have you spent on ecig's and supplys?

    I've spent about $600 since March but a lot of that was start up cost. I spent about $200 on the blu for me and my wife before I realized that I hated messing with small batteries. Then I bought a 510 kit and started making several different box mods. In the meantime I spent a lot of money at...

    EM LR Attys...

    Buy two lots of 5 for $15 each and then tack on the $15 shipping fee. That's 10 atty's for $45...or $4.50 each after shipping. Beats the heck out of the $8.00 to $10.00 each I've seen other places charge for LR atty's before shipping. Even if you order one lot of 5 for $15 and pay $15...

    Newbie prob dumb question!

    Sure, there are calculators out there, but here's how you do the math... Nic Calc: 3ml x 28mg/ml = 84mg (total nic) 84mg (total nic) / 4ml (total liquid) = 21mg/ml (nic strength) Figure out the total amount of nic then divide by the total amount of liquid. VG % Calc: 1ml (total VG) / 4 ml...

    EM LR Attys...

    I've been using the same two EM 510 LR's since late May and they are both holding up well. While not as good as they were the first month, they still run hotter than the normal atty's at 3.7V. I haven't noticed any odd taste, but I use a stubby drip tip and keep it nice and wet at all times...

    please help me clear this up-drip tips

    I recommend the delrin shorty drip tip from SuperT Manufacturing. Makes dripping a breeze and no metallic taste.

    Just made my first batch!!! Strawberry-Kiwi!!!

    Congrats on your first batch of homebrew! I just mixed up a 5ml/14mg batch of strawberry-kiwi myself. I find that the S-K can be a little sharp by itself. The 20% VG helps but I also use 10% strawberry-kiwi, 5% mango and 5% tropical punch flavoring to kind of mellow it out a bit.

    Time to restock/upgrade. What do I absolutely HAVE to try?

    If you're looking into high voltage and have some money to spend, then I would try out a low-resistance atty on your normal 3.7V mod. I get mine 5 at a time for $15+shipping from eastmall.net and don't even use my 5V mod anymore. The LR atty's aren't quite the same as a 5V mod, but they're...

    How much juice do you use?

    I drip 1-2 ml @ 14mg per day (down from 3-4ml @ 24mg, 4 months ago). I find that I go through much less juice dripping instead of using carts. I threw away a whole bunch of money on juices in the beginning but found that I liked plain old Dekang menthol which you can get 50ml bottles of for...

    Combining Juices Question....

    Here's how I calculate it. Figure up the total mg's of nic you have: 12ml x 12mg/ml = 144mg 3ml x 24mg/ml = 72mg 144mg + 72mg = 216mg total Then figure out how much liquid you have: 12 ml + 3 ml = 15ml total Now you know that when you combine your juices you will have a total of 216mg of...

    My 5v Mod (Nico Stick)

    It looks great, Jorge! That's a pretty good trick to fit the juice bottle and all the electronics in there. Nice job.

    Low maintenance box mod

    Sweet mod Jiff!!! I'm getting ready to start playing around with the cart feeding stuff...do you ever have a problem with the tubing coming loose in your pocket? I would store a spare atty in your open spot. I just got some LR atties in from Hong Kong and I'm really digging 'em. I cannot...

    How to Build yourself a small 5v triple A box with microswitch using pcb

    Congrats on a mod well done! I made a 5V 2x14500 in a 3xAA box using EZ's post as a how-to. I posted some pics and wiring diagrams in this thread if you are interested. Thanks, EZ, for the great how-to!

    5v reg getting hot

    Anytime anything is smoking, stop using the device immediately! You don't want to risk a catastrophic battery failure. Remove the batteries and let it cool off for a while. Then check for loose wires, short circuits, etc. I've never heard of that happening, but I'm new here. What regulator...
