    Popping coils

    Just built a simple single coil using 30 gauge A-1 Kanthal on an 18 mm bit, 6 wraps (1.2 ohm) in my new Magma RDA and I'm running it wide open. This thing is amazing! Except that at the 3 second into the draw...it pops. I'm not too concerned about hot juice exploding in my mouth as I'm using a 2.25" drip tip. Other info is it's on a Magneto with a Sony VTC4. I'm not sub-ohming so I'm not too concerned about the battery. My question is this: is the popping something I need to be concerned about? I've never had this happen before in a build so I'm not sure what to do or think. What causes this popping? How can I make it stop? Did I do something wrong? Any help is very much appreciated.
  2. See? I knew there was someone who would find it useful!
  3. There's somebody somewhere who desperately needed that review, you know. Probably. The lack of oxygen up here does strange things to people.
  4. The regular sized Nautilus is $25.95 at the VT store. The mini is $25. The vertical coil will work in both . So far, these seem to be the best tanks around for flavor and performance. My deepest condolences on your dad's passing, Patricia. Update: The mini is $24
  5. I think we tried something like this once and only managed to help others spend even more in the guise of commiserating with them over how much they spent on vape gear. Lol.
  6. I believe most of us on this forum pay it forward, some more than others and many prefer to keep silent about it. We have a great bunch of members here who just rock!

    New vaper

    Welcome to Vapor Talk.
  8. We're all happy to help. I'm glad you were able to get that fixed, and now you're truly on your way to being a non-smoker.
  9. Welcome to Vapor Talk.
  10. Welcome to Vapor Talk.
  11. My B&M have excellent employees who recognize awesomeness when they see it.
  12. Broke down and bought a genuine Magma RDA from my local B&M. It turned out to be $50 less than the posted price.
  13. What Comp said. Here is a rough estimate: 24 mg of nic is roughly equal to full flavor cigarettes like Marlboro Reds. 12 mg nic = Marlboro Lights 6 mg nic = Ultra lights Keep in mind that these are just guidelines and are not exact, but it will give you a ballpark to start in. I was a pack a day Marlboro Light smoker but I started with 24 mg of nic until I got off the analogs for several months. Then, I dropped it down to 12 mg for daily use. Now, I'm all over the place. When I can't vape very often I go to 24 mg so I can take a few draws and I'm good for a bit. During a "normal" day, my go-to is 12 mg. At night when I'm chain vaping to my heart's content I'm now dropping it down to 6 mg so I don't get too much nic. YMMV.
  14. Going sub ohm at .50 you need a mechanical mod with a battery like a Sony vtc 4/5/6... Like Jason said, the MVP won't fire that low.
  15. What? So does this mean I can't break out in purple prose?
  16. Where did you get yours that it was 30-ish? Is it a kit or just by itself?
  17. I've already decided to give one a try. Just haven't decided on a color yet.
  18. Mmmmm. Cinnamon. How does this compare to your cinnamon stick juice?
  19. We use different recipes for different effects. Some beer (regular, not lite), lemon scented amonia, epsom salts...
