Me not thinking of that myself and writing a long, rambling, unnecessary reply has nothing to do with the color of my hair. Honest.

I'm bald but i still have blond moments.
I have a misshapped paper clip in my bathroom to deal with that. Once I get any indication that is going to happen, I slam the end of it down into the bottle. Opens it right up, and it doesn't cause it to gush out, either. Just fills it up in a sane manner. Ms. T's actually sends directions with her bottles now, and a little dropper. I guess she was getting a lot of complaints about squeezing too hard and the tops popping off.
Please excuse me quoting myself... in fact people quoting themelves is one of my pet peeves lol.
OK, HERE (Now closed) is brand new example of exactly what I am talking about in my quoted post. ... Newbie ran for the hills

I have a pet peeve. People who ridicule people who take the time and effort to explain volts, ohms, watts, and amps to newcomers so they'll understand why variable voltage is inherently superior to constant voltage.
I typed all of this tonight, in response to an OP who didn't know how a particular PV would deal with the different heads that come with a Vivi Nova:
"The Vivi Nova video mentions that it comes with three "heads" - the actual atomizer that is fed with wicks. The heads come in three different "resistances" - amounts of "ohms".
The higher the ohms, the more volts are required to achieve a given amount of heat, measured in watts. With a variable voltage device, you can adjust the voltage to achieve any desired heat using any of the three heads. You CANNOT do that with a constant voltage device.
The Joyetech eGo-C Twist is indeed a game changer, allowing anyone to have variable voltage for a much lower cost of entry than ever before.
*****
Variable voltage lets you be Goldilocks. She wanted her porridge just the right temperature. To get a variety of resistances of coils to just the right temperature, you need to be able to control the amount of volts that your device is delivering to it (please use only single coil cartomizers or atomizers unless you have a compelling reason to use two or more coils - you'll save battery power, and IMO get a better vape to boot). Different juices also want different amounts of heat, and there are variations among "nominal" resistances of any given device that variable voltage will allow you to compensate for.
This can all be demonstrated by a very simple formula that is part of "Ohm's Law":
Volts time volts divided by resistance (rated in "ohms") = watts (heat) at/in the coil.
Consider the three heads in the Vivi Nova; 1.8, 2.4, and 2.8 ohms:
With a Joyetech eGo-C Twist, or any other variable voltage device, you can achieve any wattage you need to get a good vape, even if the "actual" resistance of the "heads" varies from the "nominal" resistance of the heads, which it almost always does.
I'd say that most people vape at between 4 and 8 watts per coil. Let's see how 6 watts can be produced with a Joyetech eGo-C Twist (or any other variable voltage device) with any of those three atomizer heads.
3.28 volts x 3.28 volts / 1.8 ohms = 6 watts
3.79 volts x 3.79 volts / 2.4 ohms = 6 watts
4.09 volts x 4.09 volts / 2.8 ohms = 6 watts
A constant voltage device obviously cannot do this, so please do not buy one under any circumstances.
The Joyetch eGo-C Twist has a dial on the bottom that lets you adjust the voltage between 3.2 and 4.8 volts. That allows you to control the amount of watts produced by/within the coil. It is as easy to use as a dimmer switch. It can be taught is three seconds. For more heat to the coil, turn the knob clockwise. For less heat to the coil, turn it counter-clockwise. I do not understand why so many people give beginners so little credit concerning basic intelligence.
The Vivi Nova tank/atomizer is insanely easy to use and performs very, very well. Unscrew the top, fill it with juice to the "Full" mark, and vape.
The Twists are about $22 each, the chargers are about $13 each, and the Vivi Novas are also about $13 each.
If you get 30ml (one ounce) of five flavors that will last you about 20-30 days. Heavy vaping is about 6-8ml a day. 12mg strength should be enough to take care of any cravings, but 18ml might be even better. Nicotine does raise your blood pressure and heart rate, so it's best IMO not to ingest any more than you currently are by smoking cigarettes, but do whatever you need to to get off of the cancer sticks, and worry about cutting down on your nic levels after you're out of the deadly clutches of the cancer sticks.
Please remember one thing; vaping is flat-out more enjoyable than ciggies. Please just start, and don't look back.

I have been vaping for almost a year, and have bought LOTS of stuff. Joytech eGo-T (constant voltage) tank system, Joyetch eGo-C (Constant voltage) tank system, Smoktech Woo 5-volt battery, e_power (constant voltage) battery), Smoktech VMax variable voltage APV (awesome, $100), Joyetech 18650 (constant voltage) APV, and others.
Right now, I am vaping on a Joyetch eGo-C Twist (variable voltage) APV with a Vivi Nova 3.5 ml tank/atomizer. Anyone with a functioning brain can operate this equipment, and I cannot recommend it highly enough as an excellent starting point to use while you explore other options. As for me, I just plain like it, and my VMax sits largely ignored and unused, awesome as it is.

But at least he had time to post this before he "ran to the hills":
thank you very much ShogaNinja
so i need to buy
1.eGo-C Twist Battery
2.eGo Series - USB Battery Charger
3.Vision Clearomizer - Version 3
4.Vision ViVi Nova Replaceabe Coil Head

People sniped at that? What for?
On some forums i've been on, sniping at a post like that would have been an infraction if not a temporary ban.

Plain and simple my pet peeve with vaping is running into people that feed you a line of BS because they are such mindless lemming fanbois (or girls). I'd like to think that the average ECF member can see through these people, but well YMMV
Oh and dry hits when dripping.

Nobody sniped at that, why it's posted here I'm not sure, it's not even from the same thread, i think he's showing the effort he goes to to help out new vapors. People took offence to the way he dismissed other opinions, that is all.

For some reason...I tend to agree with this a bit.

That is precisely what someone "sniped" at. That was the thread that was linked to as an example of someone causing a newcomer to "head for the hills" - but not before he took the recommendation of those advocating variable voltage, and expressed thanks for it.
I will never stop recommending variable voltage over fixed voltage as a way of getting the best vape possible, except in those rare instances when a constant voltage device is fitted with just the "right" resistance of coil for a particular juice on a particular device. If someone recommends a kGo, I will advise the newcomer not to get a kGo, but to get a variable voltage eGo-class battery instead. I will continue to inquire about the merits of recommending fixed voltage over variable voltage, and will continue to discourage beginners from getting a Volt unless they absolutely must have something that resembles the thing that is presently killing them. I have admired the Volt for what it is, but am unconvinced that a significant number of long-term vapers will stick with it, and will continue to recommend that anyone buying a Volt also consider plunking down a few bucks on a couple of Twists and a couple of Vivi Novas to see what variable voltage can do for their vape.
I remain convinced that variable voltage will provide a more satisfying vape, and that it is an important weapon in the battle against cigarettes that kill 443,000 Americans each year, and ruin the health of many times that. I do not consider this "variable voltage fanboism", since IMO that term implies a mindless promotion of one's "thing" at the expense of science, logic, and reason, qualities that I think variable voltage has on its side in abundance.
Yeah, "fanboys" who promote something just because it's what they own, and not because of science, logic, and reason, like the obvious and arguably irrefutable advantages of variable voltage over fixed voltage as a means of getting a superior vape on a wide variety of attachments and juices, could really "get my goat" too if I allowed it to.
And I have come to the conclusion that no one should "get off" nicotine. To the contrary, I think it's a near-miraculous drug, and think that everyone should use it in moderation; "moderation" meaning somewhere around 4-6 mg strength, vaping as much as desired at that level. I urge moderation because nicotine is a vasoconstrictor, and raises blood pressure and heart rate, effects that in my opinion should be balanced against the clinically-proven positive effects of the drug.
I have come to this conclusion that nicotine should be a part of everyone's chemical intake based on the scientifically-documented positive effects that nicotine has on mood, depression, attention deficit disorder, Parkinson's, and Alzheimers. Googling "nicotine memory seniors" will give you hundreds of examples of how doctors are currently prescribing the nicotine patch and other means of administering this wonderful drug to boost memory and attentiveness. Googling "nicotine benefits" will give hundreds of sources demonstrating the positive effects of the drug, and links to studies at Duke University that show that nicotine plays a valuable role in lessening the symptoms of depression and other debilitating disorders.
Strangely, many scientists seem to lament the "fact" that these benefits must come at the expense of the ravages of tobacco smoke on the human body, seemingly oblivious to the fact that they can be enjoyed through vaping, with the added bonus of being able to blow awesome "vape" rings.
(Oh, and a big "shout-out" to Phil and Grimm, and Courtney down at AAV).

Nudging this back to the topic...
When you drip and you think you have the liquid blown down into the atty...you take a draw...and it wasn't !
When you drip and you think you have the liquid blown down into the atty...you take a draw...and it wasn't !
When that last little bit of juice just circles around the rim of the bottle and won't come out.
When you are re-filling your last good CE3 with your favorite juice and the needle and syringe decide to come apart making your CE3 a rocket and loosing whatever juice is in the syringe.
Happened to me Friday at work. Had Alien Vision Massive Thick Mint all over the place.
