    What's a good starter RBA?

    Try and make it work with the ones youve got already. Burnt taste = something very wrong! Have fun

    VAPENY has a new store in Manhattan

    Went there today to see what was what but there were three customers in there and it seemed crowded and weird. Heh. Maybe I am weird.

    brooklyn vape shop!

    Just stumbled across "Vapor Lounge NY" on Kent Ave. Nice small shop with lots of DK and Liqua(?) Juice and ego Batts in stock. All available for tasting. Owner is working on some very tasty juice that takes its flavor from herbs = awesome.

    SmokTech The Natural - New mechanical device

    I have had mine for a week or more now and I think is is really great with LR atty, but especially RBA @ 1 ohm or so. I did the sanding of contacts thing, and didnt notice any really improvement... additionally, I dont think that the top or bottom screws on mine are actually brass underneath. I...

    SmokTech The Natural - New mechanical device

    Many thanks to all who contributed to this thread! Its a nice machine. I made a 1.3ohm coil for my IGO-L and it is fantastic. Also very nice with a vivi nova 2.4ohm. I will go for the sanding advice later tonight, but working well right out of the box. I agree that the button is REALLY stiff. I...

    Gripper Discussion

    Just wanted to say thank you to all who put info in this thread! Dripping a Joye 510 LR atty @ the lowest setting (3v) on the gripper is the best vape I have had so far. My other mod is a 3.7v Maxi Roughstack. The gripper is an awesome vape, but the case has such a cheap feel. I concur with...

    VV Gripper Gripe: A love affair gone wrong

    I ordered one on Friday and read a monster thread on the vv gripper last night. Seems that across the board people really like it except for the battery door. Luckily for me I have read your post and also have a bag of rubberbands nearby.

    Just Bought VV Gripper

    Thanks guys. I read this 49 page thread on the vv gripper last night and also did a bunch of reading about batteries. I ended up ordering a couple of flat top IMR's so that I put minimal stress on the door. {edit} only one out of my four 18650's fit in the gripper, and after reading the stuff...

    Just Bought VV Gripper

    I am excited to have one of these on its way to me... My only other mod is a Maxi Roughstack, so I have a bunch of protected Ultrafire 18650's around. I know that the recommended batts for this are the IMR's, but I am wondering if it is an impossibility to use the batts that I already have...

    Flavor West Tobacco's

    Firstly, I am a complete noob.... My first try @ a simple juice was last night with the FW USA Blend. The concentrate tastes very sharp and chemical-ish. Possibly because of the alcohol in it, or because it is just crappy quality. I do not know how much I should really rely on steeping to aid...

    Not Gonna Buy Any More Premixed E-juice. EVER.

    I got some of my DIY gear in yesterday and played around to make a simple juice with my Flavor West USA Tobacco concentrate. It didnt turn out very well, and I think it is because I dont like the FW liquid in the first place. Also, when the FW bottle says that it is meant to be used @ .25% to...
