    Advice for mother-in-law

    Hi there! I'm trying to convert my mother-in-law to vaping, but am drawing a blank as to what setup to get for her. She's 79 years old and has some dexterity issues -- her hands shake pretty badly, though she still manages a cigarette lighter. I'd like to get her something that has fairly decent...

    Erlkonigin question

    I have an Erlkonigin clone that I am having trouble getting to wick properly My first attempt was to follow the videos and give it a very sparse, short wick, with ends barely dangling into the top of the channel. With my 50/50 PG/VG juice and airflow half open, it would wick fairly poorly, and...

    Origen dripper on a standard Reo?

    I have a standard (non-LP) Grand, and I wonder. I have Origen in the mail, that I was hoping to convert for bottom feeding. Do you know if the *internal* chamber will fit inside the well? Cause I can grind off the bottom lip. As long as the atomizer part itself, ground down, will fit inside the...

    How to improve wicking in a KFL?

    I have s lightly modded EHPro KFL clone -- the airhole is enlarged. Works great, and the airflow is just perfect. Even almost no whistling. However, it seems to not pull in enough juice to the coil. Every now and then I end up having to cover the airhole and take a few sharp dry pulls to feed...

    Which Kayfun clone?

    I have one of the Kayfun clones from FT, couldn't get it to work in an acceptable manner :( The whistling is driving my dogs insane. I've tried a few solutions, to no avail. The juice channels were too small out of the box, so I dremelled them out. Now it floods with a standard setup, or runs...

    Is epoxy safe with liquids?

    One of my favorite RBAs came apart slighty. I fixed it with JB Steelstik. Unfortunately, it's inside the tank, where it will be in almost constant contact with the juice. Is it gonna be ok? The epoxy is rated to be safe for foods, but I'm not sure if nic liquid qualifies as a food :)

    Modding SL Reos?

    I just wondered -- have any of you tried to grind out additional squonk holes in the SL Reos? Something like symmetrical hole to the one in the door, to squeeze the bottle from two sides? Or one on the side of the Reo, to make it ambidextrously squonkable?

    My Grand tumbled out of the car

    I was going about 30 mph on a dirt road when my Reo decided to jump out. It tumbled quite a bit. The only visible damage is a broken delrin drip tip, and slightly scoffed chrome on the RM2. Yay for Rob!

    Adjusting positive pin?

    So I have my beloved Grand sporting a less beloved ERA clone. Both my Reomizers, when screwed all the way onto the Grand end up with the airhole pointing towards the door, i.e. 90 degrees short of where they should point. If I loosen them up to where the hole points the correct way (with a...

    Need more batteries

    So my old EH 18650ies are barely holding charge now, and I'm looking for new 18650ies for my Grand. Besides the obvious choice of AW 2000MAh, what else would fit into a Grand? It still has the spring, no fuses for me. I haven't needed more than 10 amp output either yet, so possibly can get...

    Rob's IGO-S reviews?

    Well, I figured out my issue with the ERA/Cyclone/IGO-S style atomizers (and it's embarassing), so now I decided that I like them :) So, I may have missed them, but are there any reviews of Rob's new bottom feeding IGO-S? How well does the cap stay on? How sturdy are the posts? Do the posts...

    Don't wrap coils in the evening

    So I keep reminding myself not to make new coils in the evening, and then I keep doing it anyway. By evening, my throat usually gets used to the sub-ohm vape, so I make a new coil that seems pleasantly "just right". Then the next morning, I keep coughing my eyes out :( I think I need more...

    KFL question

    Hi there! I got a KFL clone, and have a small issue (besides the horrible whistling). It vapes ok, except every now and then it starts feeling dry, and I have to cover most of the air hole, and take a few sharp drags to wet the wick. I use about 1.5ohm microcoils, with a rolled cotton wick...

    No more anodized?

    Started looking for a new Grand (cause one can never have enough Reos), but they are all painted nowadays :( I like my anodized silver Grand -- after a year and a half it still looks mostly new. That's one tough finish.

    Taifun problem :(

    When I refill mine, as I twist the base with atomizer into the tank, the chimney tube grabs onto the atomizer cap, and turns it, together with the atomizer body. That pulls my lovingly arranged wicks out of the holes, and it floods immediately. Have any of you found a way to deal with that...

    Fixing/improving Taifun clone

    Hi there! So I have a Taifun GT clone, and love the vapor from it. One issue with it though. When I unscrew the tank, at the bottom as I'm supposed to, the chimney tube comes off the tank and stays on the atomizer chamber. Thus, dumps the leftover juice into my unsuspecting lap. I can't really...

    Why Nemesis?

    Don't get me wrong, Nemesis clone is one fine mech. I'm just trying to understand why is it more popular than, say, Astro or Chi You clones? Both are shorter than Nemesis, Chi You has AFC, Astro is telescoping. Both hit very hard -- to my understanding, all three have very similar voltage drop...

    Pulse Genesis clone

    ...from Fasttech. This thing is freakishly good! Took a bit of tedium to set it up, but it functions great! I have it with a solid SS mesh wick, 28 gauge kanthal, single coil at 1.7 ohm. The weird thing is that my usual genesis is about .8-1 ohm, but this seems to perform at higher resistances...
