    IPV5 and SS wire: Old dog, new tricks?

    Hi all, its been a while! Glad to see everyone chucking along. I recently got an IPV5 and was keen on trying some SS wire. The unit is set up for 304 only, but I notice it has an adjustable TCR. Can I safely use 316 and follow the TCR recommendations I've seen floating around? Or should I...

    Newb recommendations

    I'm so deep and settled into RBAs, self built VV mods and mechs that I'm totally out of touch with gear that would serve a new trying-to-be vaper ex smoker I was hoping to get some recommendations from you kind folks on what's easy and reliable these days? The wife's father is a heavy smoker...

    Thank You Rob

    After intermittent button issues I decided to send my VV Grand in for a repair. This was particularly painful for me, my Reo is my go to mod anytime I'm not home (and much of the time when I am home). The thing is an absolute tank, I never have to worry about it getting 'hurt,' and the batteries...

    quick Vivi Mini question

    are the heads supposed to use NR wire to keep heat away from the seal? I thought this was the case now. Anyway, my 2.4 ohm head reads 3.1, and has no NR wire. The taste of burning seal is unmistakeably unique, and disgusting. I took it apart, and low and behold, it was getting cooked...

    Thought experiment, fluxo vs. phoenix

    I'm starting to enjoy the phoenix flavor over the fluxo flavor, at least for now. (TH and heat is a different issue) If you created enough distance between the fluxo coil and your mouth, say on the order of the stock distance between your mouth and the phoenix coil, for one, fully wick-ed...

    What has been done to improve QC?

    I recall a post from Steve that consisted of an apology for defective batteries and a pledge to make efforts to improve QC both abroad and in the stock room at home. Months later I get my first VT reg auto, and its not working right. The switch is insensitive. It even quite literally sticks on...

    Nicotine Comparisons

    VZ 100 mg/ml PG, diluted to 33mg/ml 33% PG 67% VG RTS 100 mg/ml VG, diluted to 33mg/ml 33% PG 67% VG I have unfortunately ripped through my 30 ml sample of ECX, so I cannot mix it straight and have it here for 'real time' comparison, so I'm relying on memory and my previous comparison of ECX...

    quick question about stainless steel mesh oxidation

    If you have successfully oxidized your mesh/wick, and you run an audible continuity test on it with the multimeter, it should NOT conduct (no beep), correct? Similarly, what will the resistance reading be if its properly oxidized? Or can I not go by this?

    soft touch eGo cones

    Please offer some in matching colors. Pretty please. They don't even have to be soft, but that would be nice. You could be the worlds first vendor for soft touch cones. That's all. regards, Cyrus

    ECX tobacco express flavorings

    So I hear these are "the same" as the VZ super concentrated flavorings I have a bottle of RY4, Cigar, and French Pipe steeping right now, each at 5% Initial impressions: 1) despite the claim that these have PG in them, they are incredibly thin, and have the same exact consistency as the VZ...

    model specific threads wrecked

    there is no posting option, and attempting to "reply with quote" leads to a "you do no have permission to access this page" error ? (i've noted this in the KR808 and Ego/Echo type models sub forums)

    PG/VG/Nicotine resistant sealants

    So I have some DAP silicon, which is supposedly water/aquarium/food safe when cured I also have some quiksteel now, which is 'safe for drinking water' I've also read that fully cured gorilla (was it glue or epoxy? I can't remember) is water safe when fully cured...but I don't have any so...

    amazon supply

    AmazonSupply.com: The Hardware Store for Researchers and Developers looks similar to amazon's stock of gear at a cursory glance, but at least its better organized and there is less in the way of irrelevant items to sift through you can sign in with your prime account

    Change in nicotine sensitivity

    Anyone ever have this come on abruptly? I used to go with 25mg and feel nothing but nice TH and that 'ahhh' feeling. I'd up to 35 at times for more of a hit. I thought there was something fishy going on with some of my mixes recently, or possibly my nic. But apparently not. I mixed up to...

    Dr. Badkolo

    Would love to see more 808 options on the visions, stardusts (e.g. iTurbos), and other clearos that said I realize I'm in the minority, and its probably not smart business for you to go 808 donkey kong and 510 gear works perfectly with the adaptors that you tweaked for me (thank you...

    Large diameter mouth piece for jumbo cartos/clearos (e.g. echomizer, visions, etc)

    I'm not a huge fan of drip tips, and when using large carto/clearo I prefer to have a larger outlet for the vapor. At home I'll often just vape with the cap off. Anyone make jumbo mouthpieces that will work to this end? Maybe something like a standard carto mouthpiece just larger? I could just...
