    Ended Win from Smoant! 15 Charon TS 218s up for grabs....

    Thanks for the opportunity @Oliver I've been away from the forum for a couple of years but you lured me back with this. I am not familiar with this tag business - I hope I did it correctly.

    Sigelei 75w Boxmod

    I like the functionality and size - it fits nicely in a shirt pocket and in the hand. Even though it seems a bit boxy/clunky, it's smaller and lighter than most of its competitors (all except the iStick TC40W - which is a bit too small for comfort in my hand). I wish they had designed it a bit...

    Sigelei 75w Boxmod

    Thanks Muldrick for checking out the charging/pass-thru capability. I don't plan on normally using the charging ability but wanted to know if it worked. I get 2-3 hours out of an efest 2500 mah 18650 battery on this unit and don't want to change batteries while driving. I was surprised that the...

    Sigelei 75w Boxmod

    I just ordered one and am looking forward to trying it out. I wish the sides matched the body. Oh well, if I love it I may anodyze the sides myself to get a fully black mod. It isn't clear if one can use this as a pass-thru while charging (the 30W owners manual specifically says not to do this...

    newb with some questions

    Hi and welcome to the forum WarA. Make sure you reply to everyone and you'll soon rack up 5 posts and can start using the other forums. I'm happy to hear you started with a sub-ohm setup and avoided the frustration (and expense ) that I experienced trying to get a satisfying vape over the last...

    Best sub ohm tank for Segelei 150w

    I am partial to the Atlantis (with a large 5-7 ml tank), both for functionality and value. It works great on my sigelei 100 and 150. The authentics are more expensive but have higher Quality. I'm happy with the Atlantis clones that cost under $15. Great Flavor and vapor production all day every...

    PSA: Don't use the onboard charger for the IPV4!!

    Thanks for this post. I was very concerned with all the reports of IPV4s burning up. I feel a little safer now that I have removed the charging board. I also removed the mirror finish with a little cerium oxide and a leather buff so I can see the display. I used a little electrical tape to seal...

    Requesting help in assisting my coworker to convert/humble looking entry device

    Hi and welcome to participating in the ECF. I get what you're saying. Have you thought of suggesting something that really works and doesn't look too silly - like an eleaf istick 50 or Cloupor mini with an atlantis tank. These are small enough that they don't stand out like a 26650 tube mod or...

    VG 80/20 (Velvet cloud) not producing vapor?

    It is difficult to respond with anything other than the new thicker fluid isn't wicking correctly. Most older-design systems don't handle high VG fluids well (most cartridges/cartomizers/CE4/CE5/etc). The ego One seems to have inherited this feature, unlike the newer sub-ohm tanks (like Delta...

    coil change

    Bad taste can be caused by a dirty coil, clogged wicks, a burnt wick, or your cleaning process. I haven't cleaned coils since CE5s - replaceable coils are cheap enough now that I just replace them. The method of dry burning coils to get the gunk off them stopped working when manufacturers...

    coil change

    When atlantis coils get old they stop wicking well - so you get less vapor and, potentially, some dry hits. I've had coils last 3 weeks until I couldn't stand the loss of vapor and declining flavor profile. There is no catastrophic failure. I typically change each week now to avoid those issues...

    18650 batt help

    You should consider: the power requirements for the intended use; the safety records of the battery chemistry; the price; and the quality control of the manufacturer. I prefer IMR lithium chemistry (IMR) because of its better safety (compared to ICR it has lower internal resistance which...

    mod heating up?????

    Heat means resistance - the only thing getting hot should be your coil. Speaking of which, you don't mention the resistance of your coil. If you're sub-ohming you could be exceeding the power rating of your switch (never a good idea). The heat of your tube is probably just it acting as a...

    Hello, everybody!

    I've been vaping for 4 years (after a 50 year 1.5 PAD habit). It is amazing how much better I can smell now. I can smell a tobacco smoker from several yards now and can even tell if someone in the car ahead of me is smoking. All those years I discounted how much I smelled to those around me -...

    Eleaf iStick 30w or Aspire Sub Ohm?

    I don't think either is a bad choice. I am rather fond of the Atlantis tank and I've seen it run on both power sources and seemed to satisfy its users. I tend toward the variable Wattage power sources so I can fine-tune the warmth of the vape so I'd go with the eleaf (I run my Atlantis tanks at...
