    Belated Advken Manta Impressions

    I change hardware at a glacial pace. When I find something that works I just stick with it. I was dripping on Joye 306s for a long time until the Kanger Sub, which for me was one of those revolutionary hardware releases that changed everything about how I vaped. I think I stuck with that...

    Maple >:\

    I've literally vaped a GVC clone and nothing else for years. I was in Quebec recently and fell in love with a regional dessert, pouding chômeur. I've been making it in the kitchen, and I want to come up with a recipe for a juice. In the meantime, I ordered a bottle of Cap Maple Syrup and added...

    Recommend me a tank

    My all time favorite is the Cthulhu, but I hate working on it. I have four of them, but as much as I love the vape, I hate the tiny deck. My middle aged eyes have gotten to the point where even rewicking a Cthulhu is painful. The Crius is easier to work on and vapes well, but the flavor is just...

    Why snus? Why not snus?

    Good questions. From where I sit: Why snus? 1. No drip. This means you never need to spit like chewing tobacco and American moist snuff necessitates. This makes snus a very discreet means of nicotine delivery for all the time you spend in places where tobacco use and vaping is prohibited. 2...

    Ohmega BMF box mod

    So like a dumbass I melted the solder out of my parallel unregulated box by putting the batteries in series configuration earlier in the week. The box actually cleaned up good, a little removal of melted solder and checked the connections and it vapes no worse for wear. At the time I thought it...

    Battery safety oops!

    I’ve been around awhile and I did something really stupid today. It can and will happen to any of us. I make mistakes but I tend to learn from them, so hopefully this is a one off for me. I loaded my batteries in my parallel unregulated today in series orientation. I have a BMI regulated series...

    Nudge me toward a Cthulhu replacement

    One of my Cthulhu's top fill got cross threaded and is seized up pretty good. I'm bottom filling for now, which is a pain, and to get the top off it's gonna mar it pretty good. Cthulhu v1s are history, and I need a replacement tank. I do not like how tall the Cthulhu v2 is, or the unnecessary...

    FW Yogurt

    uhh, no. Sorry, there are several Flavor West flavors I like, but they really missed the mark on their yogurt. German Flavours yogurt rocks, but is only available with fruit. How is the TFA Greek Yogurt?

    Tripoli Clone

    I saw this in a TFA thread and started here: TFA Turkish 5% TFA Fig 5% TFA Natural Almond 3% TFA Mild Black 2% TFA Chocolate Caramel Nut 2% I wasn't happy with the results. I had in mind what this should taste like and ordered a bunch of flavorings to work on it. FA Fig was not right...

    ECF won't load in Chrome on Mac

    Updated to El Capitan beta this week, and since then the latest 64bit version of Chrome will not load ECF. Every other site I've visited is fine, just ECF. Hangs every time and kills the tab. I flushed my cache but it didn't resolve the issue. Anyone else run into this?

    Unregulated and current draw

    So after over 4 years of unregulated vaping and 6 months of regulated, I am interested in adding an unregulated box to my rotation. Here's my question, and I'm comfortable with ohms law and building. How does running a two or three battery parallel affect current draw on the batteries? If my...

    TC why?

    I vape on two Cthulhu tanks, running dual builds usually between 0.26-0.30 ohm. Usually somewhere between 35w-45w depending on what gauge wire and/or twisted I used in the build. I get great flavor, a nice warm vape, the Cthulhus wick great, and I never, ever get a dry hit. Throwing a new build...

    German Flavours

    Got my first couple of these and I'm vaping a Cherimoya Cheesecake I made using Capella's Cheesecake with the German Flavours Cherimoya. Super good, they really nailed the Cherimoya. I am looking forward to trying the Pineapple Yogurt I got from them too. Kind of expensive though, Vapers Tek...

    Vaporstation Tampa clone

    you probably have been around for a while if this is any interest to you. Mrs. Dr. vapes Tampa and nothing but since 2010. There is a clone recipe on the web that uses Hangsen No. 5, but I couldn't get the Hangsen from any of the vendors I use, so I made it with other flavorings and my...

    Frustrated with vendor, recommendations please

    I love Bull City. Great prices and super speedy shipping. But they never have anything in stock. I've been trying to place an order for the last month, and they're always out of half of what I need. Please recommend me a vendor that has good nic base, good thin vg, and sells flavorings in 4oz...

    Hcigar VT 40 anticipation thread

    Hcigar has another DNA 40 mod coming this summer, and it looks like their take on a Zero type mod with a large screen DNA 40. I need one of these like a hole in the head, but I'll be keeping my eye on this one because I love my HB DNA 40 so much. Hcigar Technology proudly present the VT 40 This...

    Problem with simple dual coil build

    So I never did a dual coil build before. I guess I felt I should master single coils before messing with duals. So yesterday I finally did my first dual in my Troll, 7 wraps 26ga for a build that reads 0.35 ohms. With a single coil 0.5 ohm build and airflow closed on one side in the Troll I can...

    The quest for Caramel Cream

    I am looking for a couple of alternatives to the custard vapes I vape day in and day out. Sometimes you need a tank of something different. I like cheesecake vapes too, but one I've wanted to come up with a good recipe for is a Caramel Cream. Caramel forward, but with plenty of cream-y...

    Want to make Caramel Cream

    FW Caramel Candy or Capellas Caramel? FA Vienna Cream or TFA Bavarian Cream? Been reading up on these, would appreciate any opinions you may have. Just want to make one using these two flavors and I already have a fairly full cart so I don't want to make it even fuller buying flavors I'll try...
