What about my teeth?
jonnoh and 2 others reacted to Earthling789 for a topic
Wow, I've heard some strange things in my time on this planet... but that one is pretty far out there. Propylene Glycol is in toothpaste, mouthwash, soap, shampoo, deodorant, etc. etc. etc.... Vegetable Glycerine is a natural sweetener, found in thousands of foods we eat every day.... But just remember... water is the leading cause of drowning... and 100% of all deaths occur right here on Earth, because living is the #1 cause of death3 points -

Newbie and feeling hopeless. MVP20w resistance issue
jasonculp and one other reacted to Earthling789 for a topic
Excellent point, Tam... there are a lot of folks who think you set both (or have been told to set both by idiots at the shops). My suggestion to anyone using a VV/VW device is to learn how to set the Wattage to what your juice prefers (usually between 6.5W and 10W for commercial juices in a Nautilus), and then the electronics of the MVP will auto-select the appropriate Voltage, based upon the resistance of the coil. For the OP, what you're experiencing is typical of a Nautilus (from my experience)... the base will become polluted with juice, or the center pin will become stuck, which will cause all kinds of erroneous resistance readings by your MVP (or any VV/VW device).2 points -
Switches that meet my needs
@hope_photography123 reacted to jay nasty for a topic
I got a nemesis last week and I'm completely over the whole dripping thing I ordered a Atlantis tank because just the rda thing is stupid, but my switch is getting stick and it burnt up my wic and coils I'm looking for a switch where I can set it down with out locking because I've made that mistake too.1 point -
It's not my business whether or not these folks pay for their sub-forums, but twice I've posted in someone's forums and have gotten no response. I understand, if paying, they can treat potential customers however they darn well choose...but if not, they're just taking up space. I really don't want to rock the boat, but being ignored is a pet peeve of mine. Nothing more rude.1 point

I know, it's one of the cute things about you: how you go all "geek" and let's tear this thing apart and put it back together the right way. But for someone who is new to vaping, I go for the easiest fix first. Eliminate that before going more in depth.1 point

Jason gave some really good tips. The thing I would do before following Jason's tips is to take the Nautilus tank off your MVP, turn it upside down and take off the bottom like you're going to refill with juice. Double check the coil in the bottom piece to make sure it's not loose. Take the coil out, swab the bottom piece clean of juice, clean the threads of the coil and replace snugly. You don't want to over tighten it, just finger tight. Put it back onto the tank and then the MVP. Sometimes, for no apparent reason, the coil can come loose. When that happens you start getting all kinds of weird readings. If this doesn't fix it, then I'd go through the steps Jason suggested.1 point

Questions about dripping...
GeorgeF reacted to Lord Agony for a topic
Hello all! I've been vaping for around a year now, and I've gone through several different phases. I started with a simple eGo-T battery and refillable clearomizers. After a while, and through some more research, I switched to something a bit better. I got a Vamo V5 (mod?) with an Aerotank V2. Loved it. Unfortunately though, after a few months of use, the Vamo has broken. That's fine, as I've been doing more research and getting ready to upgrade. The thing is, I found this whole new area of vaping that I wasn't familiar with...dripping. I suppose rebuildable units might be the appropriate term? Either way, I'm very interested in dripping. I don't understand much about it, but I think I've gotten the basics from a few videos. I get that with dripping, there is no tank or refillable cartridge to use, but rather, you directly apply juices to the atomizer, usually dripping more every few drags or as needed. Sooo here are my questions. What more do I need to know about dripping to get started? What are some good units to use for dripping? I've never actually made my own atomizer or coils, but in a video I saw a guy threading some wire through some positive/negative poles, and then lining the area with cotton to absorb the juices and drip and what not. So, what's up with that? Do all dripping units require you to make your own coils? Finally, what's the maintenance like on these beasts? If I get any replies, I'll probably have more questions XD. Thanks for taking the time to read this and answer my newb questions! If I misunderstood some things above, feel free to correct me or add to it as needed. Thanks again! -Lord Agony1 point -
I may have been to hasty in my reply. The correct answer is yes, it will rot your teeth but it will take 147 years.1 point

I have heard this and many other misconceptions about vaping. The niece that got me started...quit vaping and went back to smoking because vaping causes cancer.... (she is not too smart and neither are her friends) I am pretty sure that vaping will cause your babies to be born naked though, sorry.1 point

Not necessarily. The T2s, when they came out, all had short stubby coils. Then, after a few weeks they released the medium length coil, then finally the long coils came out. I loved the T2 and still have quite a few of them (although they don't see use anymore), as well as quite a few boxes of the short wick replacement coils.1 point

And? For one Chrome's spell checker puts all others to shame. It doesn't just check individual words, it checks them in context, e.g. there vs. their, where vs. were vs. ware etc. I can also easily keep track of my 2 separate Google Voice accounts/phone numbers from my main account. And the fast voice search works well. Don't need you to tell me which browser I should use. No is this forum area meant for your browser, fanboi insights.1 point

Questions about dripping...
GeorgeF reacted to fishguy1123 for a topic
Welcome, so the basics go something like this.... With an RDA (rebuildable dripping atomizer) you will need to wrap your own coils and install and wick (place cotton typicaly) through and around them in some way to allow the liquid to absorb. You will need something to check the resistance (Ohms) of the coils you build are, as well as an understanding of the limits of the device/batteries you use to run it. Simple Ohms calculators are free and easy on android phones. Without knowing what device you plan on useing in the future, or your liquid spec (nic, pg/vg etc..) I can only say that while useing RDA's it's common to reduce the nic level to 3 or 6mg even if you use 12+ in tanks. Others will likely chime in with more info, but please be sure all your questions are answered in some way before you start on that path. It's more about education than it is difficult. Good luck to you!1 point -
