I don't want to jinx it but I think I've finally succeeded!

My previous mistake? I was jamming enough cotton into the atomizer but here's the stupid part... I didn't close the 'detachable' part back snugly. There was still a small gap left which meant that the liquid kept leaking out no matter how I tried to wick it.

Talk about stupid.... *facepalm*

Hello guys!

Just an introduction to myself. Moved from neighbouring my to here recently. Hoping to be able to vape so I won't fall back into the horrible act of smoking again .

How's the vape scene like here? See that there are a ton of posts but what is the actual scene like? Is it completely out of the norm to spot a fellow vapor roaming around?

I'm a student BTW! Please to meet you all :)

I often recommend the Kanger Subox Mini Starter Kit for someone looking to upgrade.

Video Review - Kanger Subox Mini Starter Kit - Tank & Mod

You would also need to purchase a good 20A 18650 battery and a charger.

Thanks for the recommendation !
Nice to have helpful folks assisting newbies like me :)

Appreciate the help and links for folks here to noobies like me to understand more of Vaping.
Current EGO batt seems depleting faster and faster and i had to charge like 4 5 times a day which is very troublesome. :(
I need help in upgrading :cry:






It depend on how long you have that mod if you read thru the batteries lifespan is about 3-5 mths. So it is always good to have spare around.

I do not have link to post but you might want to consider some mods

kanger sub mini
Joytech Vtc mini
IPV4 etc.

Not having it for long but I kinda rely heavily on it thus very fast the batt depleted.
So no choice, trying to get an upgrade and targeting kanger subtank mini :)
Saw quite a bit of veterans here proposing Joytech evic vtc mini but eh duno how lol so hoping Kanger will do the trick.

Got my Kanger subox mini starter kit as per recommendation !
Tried RBA build but failed and lost 1 pc of cotton lol.
I got error of short circuit which makes it 0.0ohm so canot start.
Guess i need to figure out more on placing the cotton properly.

Using 1.5ohm OCC at the moment on 15watts. Just starting out and this works for me ^^

i dont think thats because of cotton, maybe your lead ends is both too long! hence it hits the outer barrel causing it to short circuit

Oh ! The RBA build was from Kanger itself so I never pay attention if there is any ends touching the barrel.
Properly i might screw up not properly.

Was watching a basic Tutorial while fixing it, I did skip the part of testing the cotton and coil with the batt kit before adding in the liquid LOL I thought follow step by step sure work...... Now have to relearn again lol
