• Need help from former MFS (MyFreedomSmokes) customers

    Has any found a supplier or company that has tobacco e-juice like or very similar to MFS Turbosmog, Tall Paul, or Red Luck?

Billie,
Yankee can confirm this: I am a no bull s h i t girl!! I call it the way I see it and the way I experience it.
With that said, I am going to say this, from the bottom of my heart...THANK YOU...I have never NEVER had such enjoyment, pleasure, satisfaction -IN VAPING- since getting Sophias...
This has to be the MOST convenient, easy, tasteful, flavorful, simplistic, consistent, reliable, way to vape. To have something this easy, inexpensive to maintain, is a blessing. I never dred the time I have to maintain it...because it's so easy to maintain!
To own a Sophia...several Sophia's...is just a no brainer.
So to you...THANK YOU!

only frustration I encounter with Sophia is USPS...waiting for VAPEMAIL!!!

I've had my first for a bit now and love it. I'll probably order another in the coming months with the long built in drip tip.

Billi , can you PLEASE consider making a steel tank for the slim tank. Even if it was a limited production run to test the waters and gauge interest. If you did I would probably buy two of them. On the side in a nice large font with maybe a deep engraving similar to the GG stuff you could do a By Leo. I happen to think it would look amazing and I think it would sell very well. Basically I just want my Sofia to look like a Penelope / Euforia, the all steel thing is popular for a reason. Perhaps even a small clear window to see the juice control but I don't think it needs it.

Sophia Microcoiled and Cottoned...

Hmm, I had to do this build since I only use Microcoil and Cotton on all my attys nowadays. It gets easier to maintain (just dry burn and replace the wick once a while), which makes it hassle free in the long run. Besides, the VTF stands to get doubled making it a more efficient build. And I knew my Sophia would handle this very well. And man, it sure did!

Dirty Rotten Scoundrels :)
Tip: You must see this movie if you haven't already

1. Old build removed:

The build section disassembled from the tank and ceramic cup pried with a screwdriver to dislodge.

2. Ceramic cup Removed and Cleaned:

Standard kitchen dishwashing liquid used. Rinsed under running lukewarm water.

Step Up :)
Tip: Stick thru the video... you'll be amazed

3. Microcoil made:

28AWG Kanthal, 7 wraps on a toothpick, 0.9Ω. Heated up and squeezed. The ends are kept short ~ for attaching NR legs. Multimeter checked. <Very Important

4. NR legs attached using a Wire Welder:

Picked up the microcoil in a toothpick, ensured that it was flushed against the +ve Spring Post while touching the NR wires on it's legs. I used 30g Nickel over 28g Kanthal - and it surprisingly worked.

5. Final look of the coil:

Positioned the coil inside the ceramic cup ensuring the -ve leg got wedged between the base walls.

6. Positioning and placement of the build:

After test firing the coil took a thin piece of cotton(ball) wick and inserted it. Note: The cotton should pass thru with minimum resistance. That is the right size of wick. Too thick ~ there'll be dry hits. Too thin ~ over wicking, gurgles.

7. Wicks cut and tucked-in:

Screwed-in the body tube to cut-off the wick tails... opened it up once again and tucked-in whatever cotton was left under the base.

8. Coil and wick test fired:

Juiced up the build and tested. Remember it is cotton ~ moisten it well before firing the button. Else, it'd burn... cotton is not fire resistant - unlike our Silica and Ekowool.

9. Assembled the Sophia:

Put everything together, opened the juice control a wee bit, let it sit for a while (observed the bubbles running upwards!) and got ready for the renewed experience.

10. Oh yeah!

...The first inhale was a renewed pleasure indeed. And the first exhale ~ vapour production at it's best!

11. Yes, the Fire Alarm RANG!

...Subsequent puffs fogged it up nice and proper!

End Note:
It's about 24-hrs now that I'm exclusively using this setup. Was at work y'day night ~ thus it pretty much was used non-stop. Sophia is holding this microcoil and cotton build very well. In fact it's acting as a force multiplier. I'm firing it with a 30Amps Sony and the VTF is amazing out of this li'l fella! As you can see from the images I haven't opened the juice control as much as I did with my earlier build ~ and yet there's absolutely no stopping. Feeds right, wicks right and vapes right. This is a setup I can wholeheartedly recommend.

BOTTOMLINE:
Don't be fooled by the humble diminutive looks of this tube RBA...
This teeny-weeny is very much capable to blow your socks off!
Thank you Leo for an outstanding device!

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CAUTION:
It's not your ability to make sub-Ohm coils ~ what matters most is what batteries you use to run it. For sub-Ohms you must have 10Amps or higher discharge rate, else it could be disastrous. Higher the better ~ eg. the 30Amps Sony linked above.

DISCLAIMER:
It is recommended to use a coil having resistance of 1Ω and above. Sub-Ohm resistances are not recommended for any user of any device. Because, not every battery currently in the market can safely sustain / handle such loads. Even an experienced user cannot always be certain / confident of the Amp limit of his batteries.
