with my current setups, the battery usualy last a day and most of the next - when i go to charge it at night, itl charge for an hour and then i take it off before i go to bed, and then recharge in the morning till its full.


OCD - keep things OFF the charger when i sleep.



also when filling tanks, i try to squeeze as much as i can into the tank so im not refilling often... usualy causing it to give some dry hits initialy as there is no air in the tank for the vacuum to work correctly


OCD - keep trying to fill to the max, when i know it isnt good. :(

When I am out and about I am constantly checking my pockets to make sure I have my vape. When going in and out of different stores I am always worried that I might have set it down somewhere. Sometimes I freak out after checking out every pocket only to find my vape in the car etc. It wouldn't worry me so much if there was a vape store in my town and I was able to get a new one right away. But the nearest one is an hour drive from here.

Put in pocket, if sitting down will check once in awhile for leaks. Friends always ask me why I keep digging my pockets haha.

I hear lots of people talking about their vapes leaking. I have never had this problem. I use itaste vtr. Not sure if I just have a good unit or what? Sorry to hear you are always worrying about leaks.

Idk if this is considered OCD, but you know those plastic reels that comes with your spool of kanthal or any resistance wires for coils.. ya I have quite a few just so that my rda, rtas, whatever that has a 510 connection pin can sit on it with the reel acting as a display stand because of the hole in the middle which enables the 510 to sit "flush".

Definitely do not allow batteries to go below 50 percent as well, hence I bought 4 batts, two charging while two in use and will only charge when I'm building coils or diy-ing juice on my table so that I can keep a look out for the charger to ensure I didn't overcharge my batteries.

I'm generally quite a neat person and OCD ish, so I built this wooden stand using to let my juices sit on neatly in rows. HAHA...
All my juices are organized accordingly to flavor category, strength, and pg/vg ratio. Oh and every time I change a juice I will change my cotton wicks. I pretty much got over the leaking issue, used to keep touching my pocket as well. hahaha crap..

How did you do the wooden stand.. I used hole saw but the teeth keeps clotting.. I used Angus bits but the wood tends to split open at corners.. Headache.. Now still thinking of ways to drill out the holes.

You need a decent Forstner bit and a drill press for clean, large diameter hole drilling in wood (and it helps to use another piece of wood under your main piece, to prevent nasty tear out when you do drill through!)

what a smart idea! Hope you don't mind if I share it, won't take credit for it though. I just pulled mine out, and cut a small x in the paper side, so it doesn't move. I'm just getting into building coils, so I use my mod as an ohm reader til I can get one, so don't really have anything to build on. I've done it on my hana, but I like this idea much better. Have to be careful not to knock the hana over.

My basic rule for drilling is handheld for fixed items and drill press for unfixed items! A drill press, even a cheap one, is orders of magnitude more precise in drilling than any handheld drill.

Sorry to hear about the issues!

Hey no problem man, just share it, this is a platform for sharing anyway! Yes that's what I do too, just that instead of paper I use foam, in my case I took some spare grip tape for my bike, cut a little x and stick it on top of those reels. Haha

Washing my hands after I'm messing with coils or filling tanks... And sometimes the smell doesn't quite come off if you end up touching juice. I'm paranoid about touching anything for awhile or petting my dogs even though I know for a fact that any amount of residual nicotine left on your hands would a)absorb into me very fast and b) not be enough to even matter. But tell that to the goblins that run around in my head.
