I ran into a perfect storm of failures. The mini-USB charging port on my Darwin broke, and both batteries for my provari are dead and won't take a charge. I'm leaving for a 4-day family thanksgiving gathering on Wed. afternoon and I need batteries for the provari before then. I can't survive...

First there were simple mods - nothing more than a battery in a tube with a button and an atty connector. Then there were 5V mods, which used two batteries and a linear 5V regulator to get closer to the "sweet spot". Then they turned it up a notch with variable linear regulators - letting...

My joker died a couple days ago. The LED still lit up, but I was getting no voltage at the connector. I have already ordered a provari to replace it, but it's at least a week out. I took the joker apart as far as I could and discovered the cause of the problem. The positive wire had broken...

I've burned through 5 510 attys (2 joye, 3 boge) in less than 3 weeks. This is starting to annoy me. I need a 2.5ohm(ish) 510 that is reliably good for at least a couple weeks at 5V. Has anybody had good luck with a particular brand? I'm willing to pay extra for something that holds up.

I'm lucky in that I am allowed to vape at my desk at work. Giving my boss a box mod and getting him to quit smoking definitely had something to do with that. The problem is that between the two of us, our office is getting more than a bit "hazy" by the end of the day. Our co-workers aren't...

Does anybody make/sell 14500 box mod in a complete starter kit? By "complete", I mean with a battery, charger, LR atty, drip tip and liquid. If not, does any shop sell all this stuff that I might convince to create a package deal for it all? I'm tired of having to send people a half a dozen...

I held off on drip tips for the longest time because they were silly-expensive. OK, maybe $10-15 isn't going to break the bank, but it's just too much to pay for a few cents worth of plastic or metal. I finally broke down and bought one of the nickle-plated tips from good prophets a few months...

A buddy of mine recently got me into RC cars in a big way. I've been buying used and partially assembled chassis and fixing them up, and having a blast doing it. Sadly, there aren't any tracks within about 90 min of me, so actually going out and racing is a bit tough. My "garage" so far...

This is not so much a review as a simple warning. AVOID VAPOR RENU'S MAPLE CURED BACON JUICE It is, without question, the most horrible tasting thing I've ever had in my mouth - and I once ate a balut on a dare. I know what you're thinking, "But bacon tastes so good!" This doesn't taste like...

BuzzKill credits my 5V RIT with inspiring his latest project, the Terminator. In appreciation, he was kind enough to send me a prototype for testing. The Terminator is a simple device that only does one thing, but it does it well. It's basically a variable-voltage regulator stuffed into a 901...

I recently got a buddy of mine turned on to vaping, but I guess he wasn't really paying attention when I told him what model to order, because he ended up with an E9 kit from e-cig.com. He likes it, but he wants more cartos and he wants to get them from the US this time. E9 is the "weird"...

Eastmall's $3 LR attys are tempting, but I don't particularly want to spend $15 on shipping that will take a week or more. I also don't want to have to buy enough to meet their $35 minimum order amount. Does anybody carry these attys in the US for a reasonable markup?

Though I enjoy dripping with 901 attys, I've put off buying a drip-tip until now. The reason: Price. I know that $8-$12 isn't all that much in the grand scheme of things, but paying that much for a dime's worth of plastic or metal is just off-putting to me. After all, they're just metal...

I've been contemplating a mod for a while that would have two 14500s or 18350s in parallel. I would very much like to use an integrated USB charging circuit in the mod. I can't think of any reason that a charger board would have a problem with two batteries in parallel, but that doesn't mean a...

I've bought battery boxes from a few suppliers, and they've all been pretty chintzy. They're fine for quick nicostick mods, but I want to make a nice 3xAA 5V mod with a TI booster board and USB charging. Since I'm putting a decent amount of money into the parts, I'd like to have a decent...

What an awesome combo. The 5V PT is excellent, and the 2A power supply runs it like a champ. Best $25 vaping investment I've made so far. I can finally give the pair of 18350s I've been using in my Indulgence a rest.

Since you guys are making the Riva yourself, I was wondering if you could add a couple features to the next batch - USB charging/passthrough and true 3.7V operation. Adding a PCB with a mini-USB connector and a charging circuit would only add a couple mm to device, but it would give it a lot...

I see madvapes has both DSE and SLB attys in stock. I'm curious if anyone has tried them both and can point out the differences between them.

There really should be a link to the new chatbox somewhere prominent. I'm thinking in the main link bar along with the User CP, FAQ, Search, etc. It really is a great feature that more people would probably use if they knew about it.

I notice you don't sell DPV9 (KR808) batteries, but you do carry 901 batteries. I know the two are thread compatible, but some 901 batteries don't work well with KR808 cartomizers because they don't have air holes. Will your 901 batteries work with DPV9/KR808 cartomizers? Do you know if the...
