Couple builds I did this evening. Been a while with the .20 gplat cloud chasing builds so I dropped those and went with a dual macro clapton build in the brass monkee rda and flip mod at .55 and a dual macro tiger coil build at .35 in the zenith v2 rda on anarchist mod. Should both be great flavor builds.

I think we should keep the Kayfun the way it is. If you want to drip, get a dripper. I have no idea what the price is on the conversion kits, but they sound expensive. I'm sure you could grab a patriot for a little more than whatever the kits are going for. Then you have a designated dripper and a kayfun. Why change it? Just leave it the way it is. It was designed to be a Rebuildable Tank Atty, wasn't it?

With the 16's you can pull the silicon cap. Remove the flavor wick (top one). Reassemble and pulse it on the battery until it burns off the gunk. It will stop hissing and smoking and glow red. Reassemble top wick and silicon cap. You'll get a little more life out of it

I'm locking this thread since he started a new one elsewhere.

Congrats and Welcome! Vaping works, and as Fishguy said, everyone has their own story to tell and method/equipment-choice which works for them. Some can make the switch on day one, some can't, and it's okay! Sometimes (like TX's wife) you just hit the right flavor and never look back. As Tam suggested, use the search tool and feel free to ask questions... we all have opinions!! Oh, BTW, the VT store has fantastic prices and excellent equipment and juices... check that out, too!

I don't like tanks. Yes I'm aware this was completely redundant and uninformative. Goodnight.

man you really need to tighten un those coils they should not be that far apart, was this a pre made coil or one you built if so plz for safety reasons do some research on coil building, rip trippers taught me well and look into battery safety as well.you want your coils to be side my side but not overlapping and that looks like a 5/4 wrap

I seriously doubt that the news print has any nic in it, that would be a huge liability for the manufacturer as nicotine can and is absorbed through the skin. Just my opinion but I don't think trading one addiction to another is a good idea. Vaping is still so new that no long-term studies have been done to prove that it's totally safe. We former smokers of traditional cigarettes just know that it's less harmful than what we used to smoke before. I would never suggest to a non-smoker to take up vaping, it's still too new and we don't know if there are any long term negative effects that could occur later on. As far as I'm aware, there are no flavors like news paper available. You'll find lots of fruit, candy, tobacco, bakery...you name it and you should be able to find it as long as the flavor is something that is ingested on a regular basis -- unlike news paper. Sorry!

Thanks! Will do

Can't top that I live around 3 one horse towns and the biggest military base in the free world lol. Anyway I resisted at first tobacco only or this won't work for me. Ya right a couple of days in and I was done with tobacco. The girl at our store mixed up some jolly rancher watermelon for me and hit it perfectly, I've been on a fruity candy addiction the store owners wife has a juice she created and I'm loving my apple bottom too, Back on topic......Nice setup use what works for you being a now ex smoker I followed the shops suggestion and don't have plans to change from what I use anytime soon. My battery lasts all day my tank has been flawless and I in no way crave analogs. One day I might go to an itaste box mod and a compatible tank just for double the battery life over what I have now.

I agree... on a static-3.7V battery (ego or MOD), I prefer 1.5 or 1.8 coils in my Kanger tanks... I get a good vape, good flavor, and extended battery life (compared to higher resistance coils). But on a VW battery, setting a specific Wattage, will not matter what coil resistance you select, as long as it is not too low or too high for the circuitry to adjust Voltage to maintain the Wattage selected (based on the chart above). As you can see, a 1.2 Ohm coil on an MVP, cannot operate below 9.5W or above 3.63V (at 11W), as any higher or lower setting will be outside the operational parameters of the battery's circuitry / protection limits. Using a 1.2 Ohm coil and setting the Wattage at 8.0W, and the battery will auto-default to the closest operational limit, which is 9.08W @ 3.3V (minimum operational Voltage setting) or 9.5W @ 3.38V (minimum operational Wattage setting), based on the coil resistance.

They are talking about diluting a "nicotine base" which is nicotine suspended in a base that is highly concentrated. It is then diluted with flavoring and pg or vg to bring the nicotine to a desired level along with other factors such as vapor production and throat hit.

Incorrect... Higher resistance coils draw more Amps to fire the coil, per Ohm's Law. For example, a 2.5 Ohm coil cannot be fired at a Wattage higher than 10W because of the 5.0V limitation on the MVP, as this maximizes the output. But, a 1.5 Ohm coil at 10W will only be firing at 3.9V, thus drawing fewer Amps, and depleting the battery slower. Think of resistance in terms of weight... and you're the battery... It's easier to lift a lighter weight, longer, than it is to lift a heavy weight... both will exhaust you, but the heavier one will do so much faster. On a VW MOD, the Wattage is set, and will be achieved (up to a limit), regardless of the coil resistance used. The MOD only varies the Voltage to achieve the Wattage selected. There is no increased output, only savings to your battery life by using a lower resistance coil. Now, a lower resistance coil can achieve a higher Wattage (up to 11W limit), whereas a higher resistance coil (over 2.3 Ohms) will max out the Voltage limiter before reaching the 11W limit, due to the increased resistance. Here's a chart to show the relationship between Wattage selection and Coil choice, and the Voltage required for those settings:

Yikes. I take the tail end of my t-shirt and wipe the guck off mine.

Does she have a sister?? LOL

I didn't think I'd like a box-style either, but once I got my MVP (little smaller than VTR), I immediately loved it... It fits well in your hand, and stands upright on the desk without needing a stand, or fear of falling over if you bump the desk. It also has the ability to charge your phone or MP3 player from the battery pack in an emergency, which works VERY well! I like it so well, the VTR will be my next battery/MOD purchase For a round, tube-unit, have you looked at the Provari or Tesla VV/VW models?

Picked this up at Sally's Beauty Supply for $11 on sale this morning. 500 ft is going to last a very long time. Now I have a bag of organic cotton balls, an 80 count bag of japanese cotton squares, and 500 ft of cellucotton. Wicks for years. A little simple dual macro build with 5 wraps of 26g kanthal and the cellucotton wick. Feels synthetic even though I know technically it's not. Very easy to wick though. Easier than cotton balls not quite as easy as the japanese cotton but very simple. Didn't boil it or anything. It looks clean and other than feeling like pillow stuffing it's pretty much the same as organic cotton. I think it holds juice the same. It draws it to the coil a little better but I think it does that because the fibers are parallel and in line with each other like the japanese cotton. Doesn't taste bad. Might even say it brings out a little more of the flavor of the juice over cotton. Seems to wick nice and even you don't get dry around the coils while still being wet in the bottom along your juice well. I don't want to run it dry and see if it gives a nasty burnt hit or anything. Overall I'd say it's pretty good. Worth the $11 for that much and it's in a nice big box that you can pull out a few inches and cut off with some scissors and go about your wicking. Just nothing revolutionary. Probably works great from rebuildable tanks. I might give it a shot in my russian 91% next week.

I blow clouds like a hurricane moves water. My friends want e cigs but I have to tell them what I do isn't for noobs and to stick with a tank for now
