    radio shack boxmod switch...

    Hi Hova, I hear what you are saying, and I agree that on a limited budget, anything that works is good to save. I do however have to disagree with not using a momentary switch to control V out to the battery connector. I say this for 2 reasons, arcing and safety. If you like using the stock...

    How to wire a 510 connector?

    Yes, There are tricks, tin the tip of you soldering iron, this means have a small amount of solder coating the tip, but not a big blob. This helps to transfer heat quickly, this way you make a nice quick connection, but don't burn things like the o-ring, or the wire insulation. Next, take the...

    Soaking and straining tobacco to remove nicotine, then smoking/eating that for WTA

    No prob man, That's how we roll here at ECF! Also, my GF just woke up and laughed at me that I'm staying up all night, clickity-clacking on my keyboard. I know what you mean about some being keepers. She also likes to periodically shake her hand in the Beyonce "put a ring on it motion", makes me...

    Told I had not really quit

    So by that persons logic anyone who eats a tomato (which has nicotine) is a tobacco chewer??? Faulty logic = faulty conclusions. In a month or two when you start coughing up the tar, you should take a picture of it to show the next person who wants to super-impose their personal judgments...

    Soaking and straining tobacco to remove nicotine, then smoking/eating that for WTA

    It's very obvious to me that you want to feel better, and you are willing put in great effort to do so. I wish all my patients were like you. I have seen quite a bit, but the hardest are always the ones that have already given up. You obviously haven't and that takes a lot of courage. It...

    Soaking and straining tobacco to remove nicotine, then smoking/eating that for WTA

    Timberware, I'm sending you a P.M. to try and make sure you have a look at this. I'm not an expert, I'm just a nursing student, but I lave read a lot of the literature on anti-depressants. You are correct in stating that there are a LOT of side effects from using them, and they vary from...

    Dripping vs. Carts/Cartos.

    For everyone using Cartomizers... use a drip tip on top of it!!! I hate getting any nic juice in my mouth, and would get it all the time. Using a drip tip on top of a carto, I only get the occasional droplet when the carto snap-crackles-and-pops a bit straight up the tip. Back to the original...

    eGO kit stuck in USPS Limbo

    LoL, we all feel your pain! I've been waiting on a package of mod parts for several days now. It pulled a Houdini for three days, but it finally updated to a town an hour away from me. Finding something to distract you is going to be difficult, but it's better then watching a pot waiting for the...

    Adjustable voltage box mod

    Hey Blue, sorry, I've been MIA for a while. To answer your question Bubo, a FET is a field effect transistor. In simple terms, a FET is a electronically controlled switch. When the proper conditions for a particular FET is is met, a conductive channel is opened/closed. This is useful in our...

    How to make a 5V mod with a TI regulator.

    I've completely sealed TI 5v regulators, (and by completely, I mean totally encased), in epoxy, and haven't had a problem yet. As with the above post, this maybe overkill depending upon how the regulator will be situated within your mod. Worst case scenario, you can use pliers, and wire clippers...

    Battery Charging Safe?

    Everyone who is familiar with these batteries will hesitate to give you a firm answer. For instance, I gave an acquaintance a pair of 14500 protected batteries and a charger, both brand new still in the package. He called me a week later telling me that while he was using them, a battery got...

    car battery charger

    A link to the item in question would increase the odds of getting an proper answer. With no further info I could tell you that there are plenty of commercially available 12dc auto to usb adapters on the market. In a pinch you could even use a standard 12v dc input power inverter and then plug...

    Wet Box and 14500 batt questions needing answers.

    Never use unprotected batteries unless there is a protection circuit built into the device you are placing the batteries into. I don't think any builders of wetbox type devices goes to the additional expense and effort of placing a protection circuit into their devices since it is so relatively...

    My experience using pg or vg

    Vg behaves differently then PG so some people have concerns that it messes up atomizers quicker. Vg also has a higher viscosity so it needs to with a certain amount of distilled water ~15-20%. Also alot of people say that it doesn't incorporate flavors the same way that Pg does, so seem to need...

    Joye eGo... or Mod??

    In answer to your question your e-cig is 3.7 too. As for manufactured vs mod, You need to examine what your budget is, what you're looking for in a e-cig, (in order of importance), and if you have the time and ability to do a mod yourself or if you want to buy a mod. Since you say you are...

    Pizza flavor liquid?! Really?!

    I too have tried a pizza flavored juice. It tasted alright I guess, it had a strong flavor of oregano a hint of crust and tomato sauce. NOTHING will ever get the taste out of an atty/carto filled with it. I had to wash my drip tip twice to get it to stop flavoring any juice I put in a new atty.

    Did I get bad batteries or it my charger

    I'm sorry but I'm unclear on your question. It would help if you can state what the problem is. Is one of your batteries not charging? How do you know that it's not charging? How long is your average battery life? What are the lights on the charger and battery doing when you plug it in, and...

    How to make a 5V mod with a TI regulator.

    I'm sorry I didn't get what you were saying until just now. Were you saying that you were checking the voltage between switch one and two? In any case, if it is indeed the regulator, I still don't suggest going to Radio Shack for the regulator since they are around4 dollars a piece and aren't...
