looks pretty good for a basic tool kit.
i wont even talk about my kit, i have a problem with buying more tools >.>
just this week i've gotten 5 more things for my kit. i keep this up im going to actually need a mechanics style tool box for it all.
but yeah it looks good, the only thing i would say to add is an ohms meter.
This is the basics. I'm not going to add my tool collection because I have convinced my husband (not mechanically inclined) that it is for more than just vaping :) yes honey, I do need the new b&d cordless drill for stuff around the house. I just put this together for 'sitting on the couch tinkering' and taking to my b&m.

:drool:I like it, I just can't justify spending almost $60 on a vape build station right now. Plus I like building stuff. A lot. I got bored a few months ago and built shadowbox shelves for my bathroom. Stuff just seems to happen when I get bored, I only claim the good stuff.

There will NEVER come a day when I can spend $60 on a vape build station. Dang, that's a new mod! :shock:

Cool, I started with V2 as well. Boy, did those things suck (not in a good way)! I got out as soon as the "lifetime warranty" expired. :laugh:

Yeah, me too...lol. I think I spent more time mailing dead batteries back than vaping the silly things, but to be fair they did help me get off the stinkies.

I recently picked up a Fieldline tactical shooter bag as my new travel vape bag or man purse as my wife calls it. I just packed it on a trip and it was well worth 15 dollars. 3 spools of wire, 3 mods, 6 batteries, 12 bottles of juice, ohm meter, charger, tools( i.e. scissors, tweezers, hemo's, screwdrivers, coil jig, etc.). Basically I fit everything I needed and more in this bag, I recommend it. May be easier to carry that a box, then you just build on your ohm meter.

The box is a generic tablet box. It has a magnetic flap so it closes securely and it acts like a little support for the top when it is open.

That is the Subtank leaking. The Subox is the part that supplies the power. Check to see that your atomizer is tightened down properly and check that all of your o rings are properly seated and in good shape. If all else fails, break it down, replace o rings and clean it and put on a new coil head and you should be good to go.

Has anyone else had their subox leak? It's driving me crazy at the moment. It's been great up until the last couple of days but it's leaking out of the air holes now.
Check that clear o ring on the coil, I had one that was missing and it took me ages to notice it was missing...

Hi,

I'm currently using the rba mod with a 20/80vg juice. Set it up at 15w and 0.5ohm. How come I still have to inhale for quiet sometime before producing the same amount of vape as someone who inhales for a shorter time?
Turn the wattage up :thumb:

I always thought leaky STM with OCC was user error.
I have 5 STM and they only leak with the RTA.
I was wrong.

My buddy's Subox tank, with OCC coils, was leaking through the afc holes.
I gifted him a couple of sets of o-rings and a spare glass.
One (or both) of them completely fixed the leak.

Thanks for the advice, there'd seal at the bottom of the cool was sitting well one side and awfully the other. New coil, although I could only get the older style 1.2 ohm coils. They hit a lot harder. So far no leaks, also with the 1.2 older horizontal cool is a lot more popping and crackling noise normal?
