    Comparisons between wicks, and a coil heat question.

    For everyone here, we all know that Clearomizers come in two wicking styles. One with a single think wick with 'sections' that are sort of twisted around each other. The other style is the one where about 5 or 6 much thinner and individually woven wicks are wrapped in the coil. Has anyone here...

    Warning to all vapers.

    My choice is official = I'm quitting vaping. I've spent over $200 on devices that taste like a burning cigarette filter. $200 is about $2,000 in my world. But that's not the point. The point is, I believe vaping is unhealthy. You see, every single time your coil makes even the slightest...

    Local vape shop = perfect vape! No more NoTank and Vision Pisser!

    For everyone who's been keeping up with my ranting about the repeatedly faulty DV Spinners, and my Protank Disasters, I went to my newly opened local vaping shop, bought a $30 "regular" proprietary kit with a Spinner-type (but only 600mah or so, and not VW) battery (guess you'd call it an eGo)...

    Does the length of the resistence wire in a rebuildable atty change the resistence?

    I'm seeing everywhere things like 28ohms/ft and references to that more wire on a wick changes the resistance. However, I'm not sure if I'm interpreting this right. If I am, it proves that my battery is faulty. Grimmgreen helped me discover this. He built his own atty and only wrapped the coil...

    Anyone try out thre Pheonix Bottom Coil Cleao?

    GotVapes PHOENiX™ Bottom Coil XL 1.5ml Carto 2.4-2.6ohms [gv-PHOENIX-XL-2.4-510] - $11.95 : GotVapes.com, E-cigarette Supplies - Atomizers Cartomizers Mods Juice and more I like the sound of this - I've been unwilling to try top coils because if I'm already having wicking issues on a Protank...

    Is this some sort of new version of the ProTank II?

    ProTank 2 Bottom Coil Glass Clearomizer Says "version two." And says the "top cap" is unscrewable (don't know if they mean the top of the tank or simply the head plate). All this being said, new or not, I was very surprised that Provari has the cheapest Protank price around. Not even DV sells...

    What is going on with my heads?

    So I took the head off the Protank, put it back in the bottom plate, and screwed it back on the battery without the tank; I made sure the wick was juiced. I press the fire button, and as soon as I do, the coil makes a popping sound and causes the wick to form splintering sections. It does this...

    Absolute best Protank head tips?

    Hey guys, I'm down to two more fresh heads. I'm letting my Protank sit in distilled water as we speak. What are the best tips on getting my head to work? -If I should dry burn for residue traces, should I soak my head in distilled water first, or simply dry burn it and watch for smoke vapor...

    Is it safe to use this battery?

    Hey guys, my Fasttech Twist clone came in with a popped-up center pin - it springs up on one side no matter how much I try to push it back down. (This isn't the Spinner battery that's giving me so much famous trouble.) However, before I realized it was broken, it did charge for a minute, and it...

    Good dripping atomizer with NO wick to fool with?

    Hey guys, I bought a dripping atomizer with a wick and all, and it totally burnt up I believe. I wouldn't have thought it'd have had any problems wicking, but who knows. Is there a good dripper out there that can virtually saturate the coil with liquid to the point a monkey could do it, but...

    Dripping atomizer problems?

    I just got one of the standard res drippers from goodejuice, one of the generic ones, and I dripped probably 8 drops in to make sure it was nice and liquidated, and I'm getting an extremely harsh, burnt vape out of what should be a soft juice - regular old coffee and cream. The atomizer got...

    Attention ProTank users: stop with the fuss!

    Hey everyone, I just found an alternative solution to the Protank: Blu cartomizers. It's the truth. Go buy a pack of Tobacco cartomizers (which taste like thin air anyway), stick a fork in the hole, pull, take the rubber gasket out, and fill! I didn't know it was that easy! Screw the Protank...

    Best place to buy high res Protank heads?

    Hey guys, do ya'll know any trustworthy websites that sell Kanger heads at higher than 2.5 coils? I'm trying to avoid a burnt flat taste the best I can, and my wicks have been wicking fine. I'd prefer a shop in Tennesse or in the Southeast as the shipping is faster for where I live. I trust MOV...

    What all heads fit the Protank II

    Just ask, exactly what all heads out there fit a Protank II? I know the T3S's do, but I'm curious if there's any totally different brands worth trying.

    Spinner/Protank Problems.

    Some time ago, I ordered the Vision Spinner I have some questions though. First of all, to test my battery, I filled my Protank II about 3/4 full, with new, pre-soaked heads, and I bought a pack of Blu cartomizers all as a test. With my Protank, my wicking was going great, and I had no leaks...

    ProTank II, no flavor?

    Hey guys, my Protank II is just not giving me any taste at all. I'm using MOV's NET Sunday Morning, and my Protank II seems to be wicking fine - there's tons of vapor and I even turned the rubber gasket upside down. No leaking, which is a plus. But simply no flavor. At the very most, I'm getting...

    Is this the right taste?

    So I tried my MOV NET last night with my protank ii and while my Spinner battery was faulty, I got a few samples. I let my wick soak with liquid in the tank for 15 minutes. Took some puffs at lowest voltage, and the vape primarily tasted like (unburned) cotton. Maybe the slightest tinge of maple...

    Ego Twist vs. Spinner

    Hey guys, with all the holdup in China, I'm gonna go ahead and just order a Twist-type device from Discount Vapors. It's probably the safest choice anyway. Question though: I have the ProTank II with the skirt. I'm looking for my device to be very streamlined; I'm very perfectionist about the...

    The flavor of NET's?

    Hey guys, I ordered MOV's Sunday Morning, and here it is in my possession, yet it'll be another 1-2 weeks til I can try it because I ordered a battery from Fasttech. I really just wanna ask: Just how would you describe the flavor of an NET, especially if you've had them from MOV? I didn't get...

    Kanger Protank II care.

    So I just ordered a Naturally Extracted Tobacco flavor from Mountain Oaks Vapors, I bought a Protank II from Discount Vapors, and got an eGo Twist 1100mah or whatever Clone (equivalent to 930mah or such, according to Fasttech, as it's a cheap clone) and charger set from Fasttech. It all came to...
