    temp control mode keeps switching back to power mode.

    Most of the time when this happens to me I realize I have juice in the connection which causes a resistance spike. I just clean it out with a Q-tip or a rolled up tissue and problem solved.

    RDA Twisted Messes New RDA

    I received mine last week, it has easily become my go-to RDA. It has a huge build deck and post holds similar to the Mutation X V3. What I like though is that I can change out the drip tip (It comes with three options) from a chuff style down to a 510 adapter. (It comes with a delrin and a steel...

    Russian 91% drip tips that fit

    Thanks for the awesome response! Most drip tips will not insert at all, the cheap one i was able to get it would insert up to the o-ring but I had to switch to a smaller o-ring to get it to fit in. I will need to get some calipers to check with width. Thank you for your measurements, once I do...

    Russian 91% drip tips that fit

    I just received my second round V1 91% a couple of days ago and got it running great with a micro coil and organic cotton. It is a great vape, I feel like I get more vapor volume than a SSM genny with similar flavor (Actually, with the cotton, I think the flavor is slightly better than the...

    Doc says I'm "still a smoker"

    I expressed some concern with my doctor over my breathing recently (been vaping 2+ years), mostly due to allergies stemming from the rugs in our new home. He suggested I quit the occasional cigar as well as vaping. I also had a lung test during that visit and it showed 100% lung function with no...

    How Did You Know It Was Time To Reduce Your Nic?

    I started at 24mg with the goal of getting down to 12 or even 6 over time. I found that after 4-5 months or so my tolerance would go down and I would start to feel the rush of nicotine during my first vape in the morning more and more. Combining that with coffee I would get a bit jittery. I took...

    Please help me decide on a V2 or Mini.

    I like the size and weight of the V2, actually I am interested in getting the extension cap for it as well. I was surprised when I first received it how much smaller it was compared to the silver bullet I was using. I like my PVs to be long enough for a good grip with battery enough to vape all...

    WOW what a difference!

    Thanks! I have been vaping a little over 2 years and I got sick of paying $9 per atomizer. Rebuildable seemed like the next natural step however I needed a good VV with a built in multimeter so I did it all at once! Im using the 32 wag kanthal but you just confirmed my suspicion that I might be...

    WOW what a difference!

    After waiting by my mailbox I received my Provari this afternoon. I promptly built my first coils as well, one for a a new Phoenix clone and the other for a Vivi Nova head. They came out excellent though a bit on the low resistance side (1.2 ohm and 2.0 ohm respectively) I used cotton yarn in...

    Which material is the best for wick?

    Thanks for all these tips! I used cotton yarn for a Phoenix clone and it is working great. I tried the bamboo (6 strands) in a Vivi Nova head. Both work great. I kind of like the wood flavor of the bamboo. I boiled it for 20 minutes first but it adds a nice aftertaste to my dessert flavored juices!

    Got my wick and coil perfect - no hot spots!

    I just started today, using 32 awg I got about 1.2 ohms off of 5 wraps on a Phoenix clone. In a vivi nova head I was able to get 6 coils at 2ohms due to the longer barrel. I ordered some 38 awg to try to get a higher ohm coil without having to fiddle too much with trying to squeeze 6-7 wraps in...

    Looking for a Banana Caramel flavor...

    Thanks guys! Since Banana's foster is on Sale $10 for 30ml you are right, I can't go wrong. I ordered a bottle and a couple 6ml of other flavors, thanks for the recommendation! Their shop looks great, I may have to stop in next time I am driving through there!

    Looking for a Banana Caramel flavor...

    Looks like Eminent Vapor is closed for a bit and I am on my last bit of Banana Creame Caramel. Does anyone have any recommendations for a similar juice, this has been my daily vape for over 6 months?!

    Flavor with new Drip Shield and Universal Drip Tip

    Thanks everyone, just a quick update, I got a steel ming from Cherry today and tried it again and I found it helped a lot with the flavor! I would like to also give it a try with an aluminum drip shield, I would also love it if CV came out with some version of the universal in either aluminum or...

    Flavor with new Drip Shield and Universal Drip Tip

    Thanks for the bump, I don't really know the answer. This morning my flavor was fine on the cannon again but I tried the shield and universal and no flavor. I really think it is because the pieces might be freshly milled. I will keep trying and see if the problem fades after some time. I may...

    Flavor with new Drip Shield and Universal Drip Tip

    So I was very excited to receive my Empire Drip Shield and Cherry Vape Universal Drip Tip in the mail yesterday. I got a HEX drip shield which seems like it is made of plastic (the site says aluminum but I think that is only for the non HEX ones). Everything works great except that when I put it...

    Hypnotic Mist...Ultra Menthol...Wyatt Earp

    I just got my first bottle of HM today and I had the same issue. I got 20/80 pg/vg and it produces a ton of vapor as it should but virtually no flavor. After about a half an hour of vaping it though I began to get some hints of flavor off it. I am going to give steeping it a try tonight and...
