For the past 4 or 5 years, I’ve been buying VG and usually mixed it with a few drops of a juice that I like. One reason being that PG gives me headaches, so I usually buy 70/30 VG/PG juices and dilute them down to 90/10 VG/PG. Works wonderfully, except that I sometimes have to add a few drops of...

I've been building my own coils for years now, I like to think I'm reasonably experienced and I'm always happy with the results. However I just recently got myself my first dripper (actually my second one, I had one a few years ago that I didn't like and only used a couple of times before...

E-cigarettes-forum Hi, Long time on/off vaper here, and got recently hit by a bout of the shynitis. So many nice things, reduced prices, sometimes actually ‘cheap cheap' likes 10$ for a mod, and without really realizing, I had spent at least a couple of hundreds on new mods, a new atomizer...

I've been somewhat out of the loop and was very unpleasantly surprised to notice that fasttech is no more. I did find a thread with about 5 alternatives, but they weren't all that great, particularly because I have yet to to find a site that ships Titanium wire. I don't want anything "fancy"...

I will be going traveling next month, and I might lose or damage my mod, so I was looking for something that I wasn’t gonna regret losing. I found the 3 mods mentioned in the title at a local shop, each for 10$, and bought them. I haven’t had time to unbox and test them yet, but which one would...

Hello, I'm using the Wye with temperature control, unfortunately it doesn't always work very well. I have no problems whatsoever if I use SS316, but with Ni200, it consistently shows about 0.01 Ohm less resistance, and while that may not sound like much, it makes quite big difference. I have to...

So I’ve read some of the discussions about rayon wicking and I wanna try it. On Fasttech they have different diameters of braided wick, is that what I should order? I usually build 2.5mm coils, is 2mm rayon the ideal size? Also, why is it braided? $21.94 (Free or Cheap Shipping) Silica Wick for...

I recently got the new version of an atomizer that I’ve been using for the last few years. Other than a couple of really good improvements, it has a bunch of ceramic inserts, in order to change the diameter of the air hole below the coil. I know that this is not uncommon, but I don’t quite get...

I thought that I had become quite proficient at building my own coils and wicking, at least good enough that I don’t have to worry about dry hits and stuff like that… Well, I got a new atomizer recently, and even though it is really easy to build on, I have had a lot of problems with dry hits...

I always wondered where the current flows through in a Clapton coil (or any other coil that consists of multiple wires). I always thought that electricity is using the past of least resistance, and if that was true, it should only flow through the wire that has less resistance, not both of them...

I’ve been vaping for a few years, and only now I learned that there’s such a thing as tube mods. Those are quite a bit smaller than my eLeaf Pico, so that led me on a search for ultra-compact mods. Does anyone know which is the smallest electronic mod for 22mm vaporizers (I’m not into mechanical...

Hello, i have restarted vaping recently, thankfully I had stored everything in a box, including wire spools and wick material. Other than SS316 wire, I also have a few spools of Ni200, from 24 to 30 Ga. Unfortunately it's not easy to make a Ni200 with enough resistance to be recognised by the...

Hi, I apologize in advance if this is a question that has been discussed a lot, but the problem is that what I’ve read doesn’t seem to make sense: We know from experience that vaping PG/VG based juices are safe to vape, so I don’t wanna talk about that. However, when I read (in articles as well...

For once, a well researched article, I was genuinely surprised! The battery behind dangerous and deadly e-cigarette explosions These batteries were never intended for use in e-cigarettes. They can cause deadly explosions.

Last month (or the entire last year, really, but especially last month) I was experimenting with my two identical atomizers (RTAs) in order to get rid of a problem with air trapped in the wells, leaving the cotton dry. Thankfully this problem seems definitely solved by now, but during this...

This is my Ohmmeter that I have bought in a vape shop for a few dollars. Since I only use regulated mods, I don’t really need one, so this one is good enough for me. However it came without instructions, and sometimes its displays blinks, and I wonder why that is? Maybe somebody has an idea? It...

A couple of weeks ago I was ordering something on Fasttech when I saw this product, which was advertised as a 2-in-1 device: it can be used as a battery charger for 4 18650 cells, or as a powerbank with the capacity of the 4 cells that you put into it. I happened to have a few 18650s from a...

I just got delivered this affordable, fully featured mod yesterday, and since I couldn't find much about it before I ordered, I'll leave a short 'review', or rather just what I think of it. To put it in perspective, I currently own two Pico 75 W (running Arctic Fox) and a HT inbox squonk mod...

I think that I have quite a good setup for squonking, yet every time when I start using it, after a couple of days it starts gathering dust again, in favour of my RTA (Berserker MINI MTL). The problem is that compared to the RTA, the flavour is so "washed out", it's like day and night. I use the...

As someone who has never mixed his own juice, how would I proceed to recreate as closely as possible a particular juice (that isn't available anymore)? We have a vape shop in town who sells his own juices, do you think I could ask them to mix me a bottle?
