    The Lurker Thread

    Old timer here...still lurking occasionally. Came on board ECF back in the Bogue Carto days, Johnboy Lava tanks, and the Provari and REO mods (still have 4 of those) were king :)

    PMTAs - who is doing what?

    And this is why our USG "representatives" feel so empowered to do whatever the hell they want. People are ill-informed due to a one sided, biased, lazy mass media that isnt interested in facts but only in sensationalizing news (not a political statement, just a statement of fact), or because...

    PMTAs - who is doing what?

    Couldnt agree more with making a thread sticky of e-juice, mod makers that have applied for PMTA. I know HALO E-Cigs has, but only for 3 of their juices (2 tobacco flavors and 1 Menthol....YUCK but better than nothing). I have a feeling those businesses that DID apply for the PMTA will charge...

    Recommended Nic-Salt juice and where to buy?

    All, I currently vape Ice Monster Melon Colada and Strawmelon Apple Nic-Salt from Jam-Monster at 24Mg strength. Love the taste of both of these but they foul my coils quickly (I assume due to sweetner). And they are fairly pricey at Element Vape ($14.95 for 30ml). So I thought I would come...

    Jake swooped down from the mainsail and took the mod right out of me grubby paws! Enjoy Jake! Glad its going to someome that will appreciate the Captain's fine craftsmanship. I still have my grand and vv grand for bottom feeding. And I can rebuild my kafun in about the same time as my RM 2...

    Hey all.... sad to say but I have my RSM Cutlass DNA 20 up for sale in the classies. I love the mod but have grown to love my Kayfuns and Russians taste more than my bottom feeders :( So the mod is just collecting dust and needs a good home. If cappy makes a run of Cutlass' es that are not...

    Yep saw that just after I posted. So it was suggested the Panasonic 2900 mah were good. But I also see the Purple Efest 2500 mah are rated well. So what do you all think is the best battery that will give the longest life while using a 1.0 - 1.3 ohm coil, at 13 Watts (3.7 v) ?

    Howdy all... How about these batteries? Panasonic 3400mah 18650 battery NCR18650B rechargeable 3.7V I like the 3400 mah rating.... but just was wondering if these would be fine to use in my Cutlass DNA20 mod. Edit: EEK...never mind. I see that its max continuous discharge rate is 6.8 Amps...

    That makes sense...that under load it dips below what that DNA can supply. But at the same time I can continue to vape that same battery on my provari, same ohm load, same voltage until it reads 3.2 under load. I think it could be just the difference in the way the DNA handles output vs a...

    I use AW IMR 18650 1600 mah. I am vaping at 14 watts @1 ohm (3.9 volts). I just find it odd the DNA 20 spec sheets say 3.2 volts are the min voltage, and the DNA 20 is cutting out at 3.7 volts on the battery. And my provari will keep vaping the same battery down to 3.2 volts when I take it out...

    So another question on the cutlass DNA 20 and battery life. I'm only getting about 1-2 hours at my vape pace (not chain vaping). So when the cutlass said check battery, and removing and replacing the same battery would no longer work, I checked the batt voltage in my provari. Seems the DNA...

    Just got my Cutlass and what a beautiful piece! Couple of questions. .. 1) having a hard time getting juice to feed from the bottom. Almost seems like something is restricting flow. I use a 70/30 pg/vg mix. Any ideas? 2) my cutlass is a dna20 mod. My 18650 aw imr 1600 mah Batts only last...

    Avast ye scurvy dogs! Just bought my first RSM (Cutlass dna20) from Skyycamel off the classies. After being a Reo grand VV user I'm looking forward to a DNA version of a bottom feeder. I also own a Reo grand mechanical, but honestly just am not digging mechanicals. I like the consistency of...

    New kayfun issue

    It was the 3.1 es. Working great now. Quality as always from the clone market is hit or miss. But what this clone has enticed me to do is go buy a authentic Svoemesto. I figure if the clone works this good, the real deal is worth the money. Sent from my GT-N5110 using Tapatalk

    New kayfun issue

    Tried that first necrotic...I think it was the insulator under the positive block that wasnt seated right. The block was overlapping the insulator by at least halfway. Eithet way solution if you show a short in your kayfun with no coil attached is to loosen the 510 screw, loosen the airflow...
