    Eagerly awaiting the P3.

    Whatever the other improvements, I hope ProVape once again offers the original straight-fluted tube as an option. The only thing that's kept me from buying a second (or third!) ProVari is the crop circles ...

    Decent Ego Batteries - do they exist?

    I have five genuine Joyetech eGo Twists (SS, 1100mAh); the oldest is nearly two years old, while the youngest is about a year old ... all five are in my daily rotation (mostly as out-and-about devices), and all are working just fine. Still holding charge very well, and — using a genuine Joyetech...

    Kayfun LITE

    I suspect the O-ring in the top cap that seals the chimney top is seizing the chimney and unscrewing it as the top cap is unscrewed. I've found that lubricating that O-ring with some e-juice before putting the cap on solves the problem.

    Ebay to close all ejuice sales?

    Have you paid for the goods? Was a refund discussed?

    iTaste MVP v2 Owners Group

    My friend, to whom I had PIFed one of my extra MVPs, has figured out a foolproof way to kill an MVP. Use a coffee cup as a mod holder, then set the mod holder cup down beside a similar cup full of hot coffee ... then become distracted and drop the MVP in the wrong cup! Works a treat. :laugh:

    Proteus serial list

    I'm eagerly awaiting the release of Proteus, but I have a concern ... because of all the wonderful service I've gotten from Vassilis, I'd like to order my Proteus from ESG (his FedEx delivery has always been lightning fast, and never any problem with customs), but because of some experiences...

    Something similar to an Ithaka that doesn't require nr-r-nr wire?

    Since I don't do dual coils, nor have I used a Taifun, I can't comment on either ... actually, the original Ithaka was designed with dual coils in mind, so it may be better in that regard. I use the new rebuildable section for cotton microcoils and the vape experience is similar to CMCs on my...

    Something similar to an Ithaka that doesn't require nr-r-nr wire?

    Have you looked at the new R-only rebuildable section for Ithaka? I've got it, and now my Ithaka is my favorite atomizer by far ... beats Russians and Kayfuns by a mile! :laugh:

    Any ideas on what Provapes new release will be????

    I don't know what features the new ProVari will have, but if they decide to once again offer the original, elegant straight-fluted body design, I'll buy it. No crop circles for me, thanks. :laugh:

    Types of Cotton balls

    I use the Maxim Organic Balls ... no boiling. Long lasting, and what "cotton flavor" there is goes away in just a few puffs.

    Need help with backwards calculating a recipe

    You started out with 10ml total (3+5.8+1.2), then you added 2.1ml (1.7+.2+.2), giving you a new total of 12.1ml. Simply calculate the percentage of each element as a portion of 12.1 ... i.e.: 3.0/12.1 = 24.8% 5.8/12.1 = 47.9% 1.2/12.1 = 9.9% 1.7/12.1 = 14.0% 0.2/12.1 = 1.7% 0.2/12.1 =...

    e-smokeguru official thread

    Simple solution ... just point out that "3008" is not the serial number, but the expiration date. That's about how long it would take a typical GG construction to start wearing out. :laugh:

    What Is Best for Battery Health - .25, .5, or 1amp Charge Settings - Xtar VP2?

    Lowest is better. I use the .25A setting for all my charging.

    Just purchased a Provari...

    It depending on what Ohms your iClear30 heads are (I believe the iClear30 heads come in 1.5Ω and 2.1Ω varieties) if they are 1.5Ω, I'd suggest about 3.6-3.7V (approximately 8.5 Watts); if they are 2.1Ω, I suggest about 4.2-4.3V (again, approximately 8.5 Watts) ... these are just starting points...

    Anyone ever tried Wizard labs? Thinking about DIY with the Flavors and VG from there.

    I've just placed another order with Wizard Labs. I've been DIYing for over a year, and WL has been my trusted supplier of PG, VG, Nic, and flavors. They are extremely reliable, and provide lab-quality ingredients. Heartily recommended. :)

    I have a dead MVP2

    I've had five MVPs (two v1s, two v1.5s, and my latest, the v2) ... three are in daily rotation, one was given to a friend, and I'm keeping one as a backup. All of them are still working just fine, and the youngest—the MVP2—is six months old, and is my daily out-and-about mod. After reading up on...

    Eroll from Avidvaper?

    I've used Avid Vaper for quite some time and they are an excellent vendor. I've met Cisco (the owner) at VapeBash and he's a fine, knowledgeable fellow. Avid Vaper, if you didn't know, is home to the HH.357 series of atomizers, which are generally considered to be the Cadillac of atomizers. You...

    What did you smoke before vaping?

    Camel Turkish Blends. BTW, I've found an e-juice that is a dead ringer for the taste of the Camel Turkish Blends ... it's Yaeliq's Camel Plus. I was absolutely shocked at the realism of this juice; it was a real Déjà vu moment!
