My eggies pop. I rather like it.

< 2 (when they pop).

I believe it's about how they're wicked. Sometimes mine do, sometimes they do not. I don't follow any consistent practice when I wick them, other than to stick the cotton inside.

oh lord it's a loud pop.. like makes me jump! i found a couple coils and pulled out my build stuff.. is there a link to rebuilding these? it's been so long i don't remember squat!

Just pull the cotton out (carefully if it's out of the blister pack), then replace it with cotton or rayon. Notice how the stock ones have little bunny tails (both sides), and try to cut the wicking off similarly to that.

Does that make sense? You won't need to rebuild the coils for many (MANY!) months, but when you get there, it's very easy (Shawn Hoefer has an excellent video...).

I'd do an ECF search, but no time (or patience) right now, but I THINK someone said popping noises were from too much liquid on the coil? It would make sense (somehow). It's like putting drops of water into a hot pan to test it for the right amount of pre-heat, and the water sizzles and sort of pops.

I don't know. Straws, grasping.

I often dilute with PG or VG, when I want to cut flavor down. It works great for me.

Have you tried the same liquid in other setups? That might be a good start to determine this dilemma.

Good luck, LK. Do let us know.

I had some with red tips, but we didn't call them that... ;)

I don't know what's up with me but vape-nostalgia has taken control. For Black Friday I bought nothing more than two of the silliest things ever. They were cheaper than cheap, and pretty much useless, but I wanted to turn the clock back to 2013 for reasons unknown. Once we get them, you'll surely see some pictures.

I'm sure it means all means something, but I don't know what (yet).

I am grateful; this much I do know. :)

Whoa! I got Swagged today. Unexpected! I ordered the Swag from FT September 4 -- it was still summer! I figured it had been confiscated, since apparently Greek customs has now gone Hulk Smash mode with ecig stuff. But it arrived, and it's sooo cute! And light! And orange! What a friendly little mod. :) I'm using it with a silver Ego One V2 2ml with a minimalist white teflon drip tip, and it's a super cute combo. Yay!
