    How often do you clean your contacts?

    Hi guys, Title says it all pretty much... I've had my first tube two weeks ago, and haven't cleaned it yet. I don't have polish materials, and I'm yet to get my ... up and walk to a store that sells some. Anyway, I've used it quite extensively, and I think it's hitting noticeably softer than it...

    Aequitas, Dead Rabbit, or Drop Dead?

    Hi guys, I've seen and heard a lot of comparison between de Drop, Dead Rabbit, and Drop Dead RDAs. One that has stayed away from the hype is the Aequitas, which I haven't heard a lot about, surprisingly enough as it looks really similar to the Dead Rabbit. Has any of you guys had the chance to...

    Does vaping make you hungry?

    I don't know if it's related, but let me explain my situation. I've been in vacations for a few days, and used a not-so-cloudy setup (I didn't wanna risk damaging my primary vape when away at the sea, and an RTA with less clouds also draws less attention). Now that I'm back at work, with my...

    How do you carry your (DIY) juice around?

    When I bought premade juice I just took the juice bottle with me, but since I DIY it, I've been using the same bottles. The thing is, they not live well when use for dripping 10ml/day. After a week or two, the bottle is dead (hard to open with the child safety kinda stripping, and the body of...

    Are mech clones dangerous?

    Hi everyone, I've kept away from clones ever since I started vaping, because I wanted to experience the real thing. However, I recently got a genuine interest in mech tubes (I already have a mech mod, it's just not a tube, it's a squonk box), but most of the ones that actually appeal me are not...

    Heat dissipation, SS316L vs Ni80

    Hi everyone, I've been using Ni80 fused clapton for quite some time, and came to find a build that I really enjoy, except for the heat dissipation : it takes forever to co down after I vape it. It also makes the coils behave very differently when they're warm and when they're not : 90W are fine...

    Clapton wrap & heat dissipation

    Hi everyone, I've been messing with a clapton wire I bought from my local B&M, it's a Ni80 fused clapton 2*26/34. I get awesome flavor and really decent clouds out of this, especially in dual coil RDAs (obviously), but it doesn't dissipate heat quite efficiently. I came to find a wattage at...

    Vaporesso Polar firmware upgrade, how to?!

    Hi everyone, I just received a Polar mod with outdated firmware so I'd like to upgrade it. I'm on Mac, so I downloaded the firmware upgrade and the Mac app, tried every possible connection, the app doesn't seem to recognize the device... I tried : - connecting the device (with batteries) then...

    Do you stress test your wicking?

    Hi everyone, I got my first RTA yesterday, so I'm right at the beginning of the learning curve for how to wick it right. I have a bit of experience with RDAs, but they're obviously much more forgiving. So, I built it last night for the first time, got it vaping at a kinda low wattage (29-32W...

    Pulse 24 gets super hot

    Hi everyone, I've started experimenting with clapton builds on my Pulse 24 and Dead Rabbit SQ, and one thing I've noticed is that the Pulse 24 gets hot much faster than the DR SQ, and cools down very slowly, even when running it single coil. It was not much of a bother with a single coil, very...

    Wasp Nano: 510 too short?!

    Hi guys, So I've been using my Wasp Nano for roughly a week, a little more, as a secondary RDA, whenever I feel like using my reg mod. Lastly I tried a clapton build in it (which was really good), then didn't use it for a couple days, and this morning when I wanted to go back to it, the mod...

    Regulated : parallel vs more wraps

    Hi, I'm mostly using a mech mod these days, so I've come to learn the build that works fine for the wire I like the most. I'm kinda replicating it on my regulated mod as well, but as I've read most people don't care about it and make cloudy builds at more than 1ohm, I figured I'd dig deeper on...

    Clapton : how can they even vape well?

    Hi guys, Some of you may have already come across some of my posts. If you have, then you know I like to experiment and ask stupid questions. My last food for thoughts is clapton wires. I haven't tried them yet, because I still have much to learn and try with simple round wires. BUT, as I...

    Single parallel better than dual?

    Hi, I've been vaping on a regulated mod with a single coil RDA (Dead Rabbit SQ) for a few weeks. Recently, I bought the Pulse BF kit, so I've been experimenting with both the mech world and dual coil setups. I've tried various wires in various gauges with the pulse RDA, but hardly got a...

    Pulse 24 RDA whistling

    Hi everyone, So I bought a Pulse BF Kit today, and I can't help but notice the RDA (Pulse 24) is whistling when the airflow is wide open. I can mute it when I open only one hole, not even fully, but the draw is way too restrictive for me. Has anyone else have this problem? Also, is there an...

    Is mech/unregulated more enjoyable?

    Hi everyone, I've recently made the switch to reconstructible, and my adv is a Dead Rabbit SQ on top of an iStick Melo. I'm thinking about getting a squonk mod, but most of them are unregulated. I don't know how a mech or unregulated would be better than a regulated, I'm actually using mine in...

    Working with 24AWG KA1

    Hi everyone, I'm really new to making my own coils, I got my RDA two days ago, and so far tried 3 different builds. I'm somewhat a cloud chaser (not for competition, really just for fun), so I've tried to builds that I expected to hugely differ, cloud-wise, but I think I'm doing it wrong...

    How much can you fill an RDA before it gets dangerous

    Hi everyone, I'm about to buy my first ever RDA (probably this evening, or in the coming days), I've cleared most of the questions I had, except maybe one, hence this post. I know some RDAs have juice wells, some don't, and I heard that many of those who use well-less RDAs use the tank-like...

    Mod reading different ohms that the atty indicates

    Hi everyone, I own an Eleaf iStick Melo kit, with the stock Melo 4 D22 tank. I have the same kind of atty that was pre-installed when I bought the kit, which is an EC2 0.3 head, single coil Kanthal. Ever since the first day I had it, it reads 0.24ohms, and not 0.3. I've changed the coil...

    Vaping cough in the morning

    (Second thread in an hour of time, I'm on fire!) Hi everyone, In the path to clarifying all the topics that bug me, I've found a lot of answers on this forum, but there are some others which are yet to find a really satisfactory answer. The topic I will raise in this thread is the morning...
