It sucks when you find out how cheap it is to make your own and how much you pay for someone else to make it for you !! Better yet they try to discourage you from making your own by telling you that it is not that easy!!! Yes I understand that !!! We all learn from mistakes !! Like I say you will never know unless you try RIGHT!!!???

Hi everybody ! I just hope this is the right forum for this question . I just got my Evic-VT and I'm very excited to have it !! My question is what tanks can I use on the Evic ? I have 2 nautilus minis can I use those ? even though there not sub tanks , and can I drip on it ? and if I can what settings should I put the Evic at for the minis and the dripper ? In the past month my 2 Istick 50watts went on the blink they were only 4 months old took them to my fav. vape shop to find out what's up and the problem is the software , they need to be flashed (memory wiped cleaned and reset) . I haven't had a decent good vape in 2 weeks so I vaped the heck out of this Evic and drained the battery already I just got it tues. I was very disappointed about my Isticks I take very good care of my mods when I took them in the vape repairer guy was amazed at how nice and good shape my mods looked, and he was even more surprised at how clean the inside they were because I did drip on them !! I did call the place that I got my Istcks from and explained to them what was going on and to my surprise they were nice enough to give me back on my account $45.00 to make up the defective mods .Half was better then nothing ! thanks !!


You can use your evic with any tank.

I've charged my Evic 1 time already for the full amount time (6 hrs) but when I charged it I made sure that the battery was completely dead !! I was told that it's not good to charge any battery unless it's completely dead or you will mess up the cells in the battery you will kill or wear out battery before it's time . I would take your Evic back get your money and go somewhere else this is the second mod you got from there and having problems with in days of having it!!! I would say if you had it charging for 6 hrs and that's what you saw after charging ? No that's not normal !!! TAKE IT BACK !!! I'm somewhat a newbie to vaping myself I've been smoke free for 7 months now !! Every day I learn something new! I rarely buy anything from vape shops I mostly buy on line,(mods,tanks,coils,etc) it's cheaper and you do find deals and coupons . I buy my juices from a friend who makes them . Some day I will learn to make my own. The places I've had no problems with on line buying from is VaperDNA where I've bought my mods and tanks,coils (when on sale) and if you search for on line coupons there out there, and there the ones who gave me the $45.00 back after 4 months so that says something good about them. Sun vapers is good for cheap coils and there authentic!

the batteries we use are lithium batteries, and they need to be kept above a certain voltage otherwise you won't be able to recharge them.

Your evic won't let the battery go lower than about 3.2 volts.

It's quite safe to charge the battery well before that time comes.

Best to allow for some relaxation time between charging and discharging.

    LOL Thanks Again & good chatting with you

    I think ECF has a supplier list, I think one can be found in the 'new users' section. There are a number of 'raw juice base' vendors that will sell someone +18yo 16oz of unflavored (you pick the mix and nicotine level) for ~< $14 (not shipped). 30ml of bulk flavors run $3-6 a bottle.

    While I like to get 'premix' (base unflavored ejuice with nicotine), others save even more by purchasing bulk PG, VG, 100MG nicotine base and the flavor mixes and save even more.

    How much your willing or wanting to do in DIY add up to savings.

    Agree. You don't need to fully discharge Li-Po batteries. Thats done on the old Nickel Cad batt.

    Certain types of batteries like Nimh do need to be discharged completely.
    Limn Batteries are the opposite. Over Discharging damages the battery and will make the length of time that the battery holds a charge shorter. Evic is regulated and protects against over discharge.

    The way I've seen it explained.
    Let's say that an LIMN battery has 300 full charges before it loses 10-20% battery life.
    You can fully discharge it 300 times. If you 1/2 discharge it then you get 600 charges. 1/4 discharge 1200 times.

    The wild card is that fully discharging is harder on the battery and causes shortened battery life. I like to change my batteries with a comfort level [When Possible] before they need charging.
    As mentioned above, your Evic is a regulated mod and won't allow your batteries to discharge below the safe level. But it's never a bad Idea to charge more often and keep the battery at a higher voltage.

    Probably the battery life on your Evic will last longer if you charge more often.

    Sorry I tried to add quote into post useing my kindle don't know what happen ??? Before the Evic I had a I stick 50watt . I think I explained in my first post that I was one of the unlucky one who got 2 defective one's !! When I took them into my local vape shop to get to the root of the problem ?? One of the questions that was asked how often did I charge it !? Did I drain it , half charge , etc .. I asked why and I was told that it wasn't good to charge temp. Control mods unless there dead !! You can charge it once in awhile before it's dead but really not a good ideal to do it all the time I was told . I was told that I was damaging the batteries (cells inside) if charging at half or more !! I've put my trust in this person who told me this because he repairs all kinds of mods and owns his vape shop !! He's been in the vape community for a long time for what I understand !! It's just amazes me all the knowledge ppl have on here !! Thanks for the heads up ! So charging my Evic before bed is not going to damage the batteries . It takes a day and half before I have to charge it , and I thought boy this SUCKS my Evic is dead it's 12pm and it takes 6 hrs to charge, now I have to use my wacky I stick 50watt until this Evic is charged !! Not anymore thanks !!!

    Rest easy and sleep deeply while charging. You aren't going to damage a Lithium based battery by not waiting until empty. They have no memory effect.
