Here are some of the wood mods I have made. From Left to Right A variable voltage dual 18650's A 3.7 volt with a 16340 A variable voltage dual 10440's My Stealth mod with a 10440 My big box with variable voltage dual 18650's and a pass thru function Another 3.7 volt 16340 And a Top Feeder with variable voltage and dual 18350's Not Pictured are A Puck variant, 2 1000mah ego's, and 2 1000mah twists. Lately I find myself reaching for the far left one the most running with a Smoktek R tank but who knows what the future might bring.

I think I might've left a couple of things out. Gotta have a backup, right?

Well I cannot seem to find my eGo. But here's the rest of my starting "collection",

Rick is also someone I pay close attention to as a reviewer. He is a bit of a Jim fanboy but that's not really fair to Jim because there is good reason Rick likes his products soo much. He's just that damn good. Lol.

Hi all. I just got my first kit and started vaping yesterday. i choose a Magma kit from Volcano because I liked the idea of refilling the little tanks myself and the product seemed to fit my lifestyle. My initial observations would be that I tend to take fewer drags, (2-3), off my e-cig per use compared to maybe 10 drags from my old Winston Lights. I also notice that I am using the e-cig more frequently though, maybe 20 times per day compared to before smoking about 1/2 a pack per day. Just wondering if others have had a similar experience as I have no frame of reference.

I'm still enjoying a great vape while yall duke this out! Here here! Cheers to wire gauge battles! ;)

I'd rather drink the whiskey and have a smooth tobacco vape to chase it with...but that's just me!

Grrr!!! The dreaded top coil. Here are a few tips that might help out. The secret is to get the wick as close to that positive post without it touching. You want as little room between the wick and positive post as possible. Here's a pic. Also 80% of all problems people have with gennys are either the mesh isn't oxidized enough or the wick isn't close enough to the positive post. If you are having problems with shorts it's usually one of 3 places (wick in contact with the top cap, in contact with the bottom of the tank, or not oxidized enough where the wick enters the wick hole) Hope this helps.

Beautiful mods, Sonar. I would love to one day build wood-box mods. I think they are absolutely breath taking!

Awesome info, thank you! I really like both the temon and the piccolo. I'm thinking the piccolo but we'll see. My wife is a stubborn plug and play vaper. She doesn't have the desire to fiddle with an rba or anything really lol. She is perfectly content with her mini vivi. I could talk till I'm blue in the face about how she's missing out but it's in one ear out the other lol.

I know a lot of you are aware of the Orion. Well the V3 is just on the horizon. (Within the next month) I am one of the 1st 50 on the list so I'll update this thread with any and all new info. First lets go into what the Orion is first and then I'll go into what's new in the V3. The Orion is a Hybrid device (the genesis atomizer is permanently affixed to the body of the device) made by Les (Nosmoker on the forums) out of Germany. The top cap and mouthpiece are one unit. The button is an electrical button developed by a guy named pailpoe from France. It can be run with one sleeve for an 18350 or add another sleeve to accommodate An 18650. It's known for it's amazing flavor compared to other hybrids. The list (which is very long) can be found on http://www.vaporwall.com. I personally have been on it for over 4 months now. (I was given the opportunity to buy the V2.1 in Dec. but passed due to the V3 coming out) Ok now on to what is new about the Orion V3. Part of the reason for such the long delay in production is that Les was acquiring patents for some things on the device. The V3 has a new air intake and draw control ring, which honestly is brilliant. It also reduces leaking that plagues genesis atomizers. And that's pretty much all we know at this point. Here are a couple pics of the air intake and control ring. Keep in mind that this is still a prototype if ya can believe it.

i got ya Rixter and my post wasn't to call you out but to clarify and reiterate what I and you were saying. And we thought Ohms law math was the most confusing part of this conversation. Lol

Oh well, maybe I'll start watching hockey now that the Pats choked.

*NOTE* Just to be clear, some of the statements in the quote bubbles in posts #30 & #31 were mine, but some belonged to others. Post is the post in which I replied to CASEACE79's comments and responded to Morandir835's claims. (I just didn't want anyone to think I was contradicting myself)

What the heck happened? That was weird.

In addition to the V2 CE6 I got last week, my Vision 2.0 and Kanger MT3 arrived yesterday from DiscountVapes.com So far, I'm liking the MT3 a lot!!!!

Well, let me know how those ones work out for you. As a newbie, I haven't yet had the opportunity to get too discouraged, and would like to keep it that way for some time.

Yes using standard attys, cartos, clearos that use the same gauge wire running at 9w would taste identical. When you start using different gauge wire it is not the case. You could make a 2ohm coil with 32g kanthal and one with 28 gauge kanthal and they taste way different.

To be honest.. I never cared much for dekang ry4. Seemed less flavorful than most juices. I personally love the RY4 from Mount Baker Vapor. Its a vanilla/caramel mixture with a very slight hint of tobacco. It was just OK at first but as it steeped it really grew on me.

Worked for Nikola Tesla.

While a larger gauge coil wire has more surface area and vaporizes more juice at any given point in time (which may provide more or stronger flavor due to more juice being heated at once), I don't believe that there is any difference in the flavor between LR, SR, or HR coils vaped at identical power, as stated earlier in this thread:

We tried helping. You can't help those who aren't willing to be helped. No loss to VT we don't need those who start drama. Good luck to you if you continue vaping but if not very well. I hope you go over to ecf, you sure will fit in.

I agree with Uma. Anything from Super T is quality built. Does your wife have a pink Twist?

Same here. I vape more than I smoked. But...to be honest...I might have smoked more if it hadn't been so expensive. Just sayin'. LOL

Lately, I've been getting a few bad Boge cartos here and there in my boxes. I think it's just a case of some poor quality control on the production line, but since a good Boge carto is (IMO) the best performing carto available today (and at less than a buck a piece), I don't mind tossing the occasional bad one out every now and again. This may or may not be what you're experiencing, but other than the QC issues I just mentioned, I've not had problems with thicker juices in Boge cartos before...it just takes a little longer to saturate fully.

Yes, you called ... These are some of the least expensive I have found. http://www.aquavaporcig.com/Atomizer-Heads-for-Vision-VIVI-NOVA-Tank_p_404.html

As you have seen... there is certainly plenty of other great juice vendors out there !!

I resemble that remark.

Too much work for me. Im more of a plug & play vaper.
