Elsewhere as in other site for the same brand if you like the product. As far as which coils I'm partial to tri core fc but enjoy an alien occasionally. Skip the juggernaut coils, waste of power and juice imo.

wotofo cotton/coils particularly good? i been looking and this is mauch more expensive than most things around

thnking between braided and quadcore... the tri is two low for me now i think

 

[AngeNZ]

elevate serpent as first DIY? yes?

Yes


Quad. You get such incredible flavour from the Elevate even with simple 26ga round wire

Wire and wick are as subjective as all things vape related. If you aren't sure what you'll like just get the rta and order a sample pack of coils and a couple different kinds of wick. I like the plain angleted wotofo wick and have used their ni80 tri core fc coils, they were good but I just prefer ss personally. Seems like my elevate came with a pair if tri cores actually.

@AngeNZ Don't know if you got your answer about your mech and battery drain. I might not give you a techie answer like Don but I usually notice right away the loss of power. At that point when I remove the batt and test it, it usually reads at around 3.7v

From what I've been reading - it drops in a hurry from 4.2v - 3.9v, sits between 3.9v-3.7v happily for a while. Then drops fast again.

Ok. I'm using much lower ohms with mine but I change my battery when I fill the bottle. It will drain the battery down to 3.3-3.4 volts.
I'm using a Redemption RDA on mine. .17ohms dual coil.

Yeah my 0.6ohm coil is puny in comparison I'm building for anywhere between 4v and 3.4v

But I love the mindset of changing the battery each time the bottle needs filling. I'll experiment with that over the next week.

Listen to Letitia, she knows more about DL vaping than I do
And I'd get it there, at least it saves on shipping it from elsewhere

No way. I just plunked down over $1,200 at the Apple store. My phone is never in hand again. It is in a pouch in my purse unless I am sitting, at home, in the car etc. It does have a great flashlight but give me the $10 nitecore for crawling in the bushes and bramble to feed hungry feral cats

What did you buy? We had two old phones, the 7 plus and 8 plus and settled for two 11 regulars. I love my light green and husband settled for MAUVE!!!! I winked and said "we can switch in six months if you wish!

I'm using the Xeta rba in my BB and have no condensation at all. All the other bridges I've used have had pretty serious condensation issues so this is a revelation. I adore my BB and expect it to last a lifetime. I agree they're not for everybody but if you're not sure (and don't mind using clones) an SXK clone can be a good way to find out.

I have 3 BBs, two regulars and a clone with all the bridges there are out there except for the exocet. Bridges aren't that expensive so I'd rather have original bridges. The last addittion was the Boxxer V2 TVRP but I'm not that fond of it. The Vinci is far more practical, build the (only) bridge and vape away. And has more power... Maybe I'll be going back to it in a while but for now it's kept aside.

 

[Susaz]

Oh haha, I just looked closer at your avi. Really, is it THAT expensive to ship to the US? That's crummy!

Around 150 bucks for a small parcel... And some other tariffs in addition. Haven't checked DHL as of late, used to send a lot of computer discs in the days of yore to my HQ in Palo Alto. Have to check.

 

[Susaz]

It was great for a while but condensation is a BIG issue. Plus all the bridges are OUTRAGEOUSLY expensive. I don't do clones, I'm buying a Vinci X with the RBA section, a vastly more sensible choice.

60/100 bucks for a bridge compared to the 6 bucks for the Vinci X bridge is what I'm ranting about.

I bought two XR's.

 

[Susaz]

sent it back and then fought for the return money via my CC
I, unlike others, could not get the gasket to stay in place after filling it. I tried and tried, wasted many hours of more then a week and the decided I did not need the frustration

Had I known...

A little paper with LOTSA water until becomes a pulp. Put it in the crease of the gasket, press the gasket in, let dry... Cellulose is a great glue and will wash away with water. Also you could have used white glue (the kind woodworkers or schoolchildren use. Holds the gasket. Also silicone... Hundreds of things. for me the paper did it.

Nuuh good morning I think. I did not sleep restfully I think I got all tangled in the blankets or something.

I also turned off the heat for a while and forgot to turn it back on. Like, it's 59 degrees in here. I need to check I actually turned it on. That means getting up.

Cleaning may wait a while. Well lets face it, it was gonna anyway but nugh.

Oh gosh, I'm a restless sleeper. I have heated floors that are at 21C during the day and until I had my programmable thermostat I would keep forgetting it either high or too low. Get a Nest. Installation is a breeze and you control it with your phone. Create a Connected Home

The title is how we get you here and then we pounce.

 

[Susaz]

I bought two XR's.

Still sold? I used to do the old trick, when the new model came out I bought the previous year's top of the line, heavily discounted. But this time around I got a great deal in 18 payments for the two of those. They're almost the same... Do yourself a favor, get a Casetify case with flowers... Gorgeous!

Woohoo!!!!

And we support people to buy what they want, rather than what they need

I see alot of folks have the vinci now and some the vinci x.
Anyone noticed smok would not be outdone and have the rpm 80 pro now? 5ml and 18650 powered for up to 80 watts.

One of the reasons i stayed with the rpm is their coils use lower wattage than the voopoo. Hence longer battery life.
And the flavor is good.

Now im contemplating getting one of the 18650 versions but dont know if its worth it.

Thoughts?

Smok is never reliable. I don't recommend it unless it's a beguinners device.

 

[Susaz]

Have you been considering the Uwell Evdilo? Smallest dual xx700 mod to date. Some great sales on it, too. Does have a proprietary chip but so does Asmodus.

I prefer the Voopoo X217. I use it a lot for the 31mm Glaz2. Great vape. If I have some money to spare I want that Lustro Kodama... Why isn't the Minikin Kodama reduced?

Good morning People of Shiny land !!!

It feels like Spring around these parts with temps in the upper 40's to mid 50's.
F-ing perfect December weather IMO.

Received my v3 InBox DNA-75 squonker last Monday (from the FT BF sale). I tried getting a decent pic of the carbon side panels but the camera wouldn't focus properly. Or the photographer needs help (haha, he does). Squonking in TC totally rocks with the DNA chip. Hcigar resolved all the issues/complaints with the previous versions. It's nice they can now take a regular bottle vs their old stupid proprietary ones. It's an awesome reg. squonker and solidly built. Would I grab another? Damn straight I would!

Photographer experience (snapping since I was a teen) everything black will either reflect or refract light. Get a white matte background and try again. So you know, this is the reason why I rarely post pictures. They're always hideous.
