  1. PC here,I am afraid Bill gets your money every time you buy something as most businesses in the world use PC's with Windows and pass the cost on to all of us.Sadly Microsoft is still trying to imitate Apple by removing the computer hobbyist from the scene.I can see a day coming where people get tired of messing with it and just do without.
  2. If talking to them doesn't work and you don't want to mess up thier world, you will most likely have to relocate.It kinda sucks being a nice person but in the long run you will come out ahead.
  3. I wouldn't use rubbing alcohol as it is inhibited.Which is a fancy way of saying poisened to prevent consumption.If you do use it make sure to rinse well.I use denture tabs and then rinse several times with hot water from my coffee maker.Some use Everclear or Vodka.
  4. That would be very nice,it would fit in one of my passthroughs but probably not a battery mod.I agree $25.00 is kinda rich .Saving for future reference.The aerospace engineers on my other forum seem to think I need to use the larger wire wound resistors as the current would exceed the ability of the smaller carbon type.It was kind of fun reading thier technical explanations ,a lot of info flew right over my head though.
  5. I got a bottle of Bubble Gum flavored liquid from ElectroNicStix this week .I was expecting pink HubbaBubba type flavor but it was a very pleasant minty gum flavor.I usually stay away from menthol as they are usually too strong but this would be a good alternative for those of you who want menthol not mothballs.It leaves a refreshing aftertaste ,good vapor production.Get you some of this.
  6. Not yet ,I don't really plan on varying the voltage once I find one I like ,I am just trying to find a way to use my homemade passthroughs.I think 3.7 to 4 volts is what I prefer.I was curiouse what the variable circut they are using in mods looked like as the resistor I used to get 4 ohms was pretty large,it would fit in a passthrough but I was hoping there was a better way.
  7. Thanks Jolly I am for sure not an electronics guy.Mine were straight thru 5 volts and I didn't like the 5 volts so I never used them.I put a resister on one and got it to 4 volts but I was thinkin of modifiying another variable.
  8. Anybody willing to give up a variable voltage circut design and parts list that I can use in my passthroughs?
  9. I think they ought to be promoting smoking and drinking and perhaps legalising pot ,just imagine how much tax money they could collect.And if the users die early they get to keep the Social Security money those folks paid in.We could go to a low flat tax and have plenty of revenue to support the illegal aliens in the manner in which they are acustomed to.
  10. Well my 306 carto's came today,they vape every bit as good as the 510's with aluminum threads,there is less filler so it doesn't take as much liquid to fill it.The only drawback I see so far is they are smaller in diameter so my 901 cart tip doesn't fit and too big for a 302 tip to fit over so it is metal in the mouth. how bout one of you mini users trying your carts to see if we can find one that will fit.preferably thin flat whistle tip.Appears to be 8mm opening.I got 3.4 ohms resistance on a wet one.For now I have cut the end of a condom or cover and am using it ,better but not a whistle tip.
  11. http://www.vaportalk.com/forum/forum/forum/gallery/image/653-my-collection here is my stuff.Hmm seem to have forgotten how to insert image,oh well the link worx.
  12. I found out the hard way on the negative case ,now I wrap them in electrical tape.I always get tired of messing with the mods I build after a week or two and they end up in my drawer.At first I had trouble with the pushbutton's finding one you didn't have to mash so hard and jiggle to get them to work.Must have tried 15 or 20 before I started using the micro switches ,easy press always good contact and they are recessed so they don't get pushed accidently .I don't see how you can keep track of how many ml you vape per charge ,I just vape till they stop producing and get a freshh battery out.I just accept batteries going dead as part of it and carry spares with me .
  13. I liked it real well at first ut it is starting to get too much the same.Pawn stars is kindsa like American Chopper it was funny for a while but now it is getting old.
  14. I am one of the few 3.7 volt people here and I kind of prefer DSE 801 manual batterie andty Kissbox passthroughs ,as far as atties go I use low bridge 801/302's,901's and 510's.And I have been using the 510 carto's with the aluminum threads as a second device.They all work just fine for me.I do not have the refined pallatte that some do,and I cannot tell all that much difference,as long as I get big clouds of vapor and the flavor I am a happy camper. Its all good.
  15. I had some trouble with the 10440 Trustfires I bought when I first started building mods ,the conducter that runs up the side of the cell to provide a complete circut to the circut board came loose on several of them.I ended up just removing them all to be able to use the batteries.So I went with the Ultrafires this time.
  16. Sweet
  17. I noticed the same thing ,I am having to top off the carto's a lot to keep up the flavor,not much different than using carts.I just can't get the carts to wick like they used to ,may be the thicker tastier liquid I am using these days.The 306 does use the same threads as the 510 ,from what I gather on the 306 carto's there is just less filler so I would think the element should be able to heat up more of whats in there and there shouldn't be as much waste.They cost the same so I figured its worth a try.
  18. They are new Ultrafire's ,I only vape at 3.7 .Just a regular 2AA box with a 5 amp micro switch.I like them cause they feel like a tactile but handle 5 amps.I have been vaping almost continually though I really like the Dulcis ,Sweet dawn and some Janty liquids I got the last couple of times.I hate to put it down its so good.I vape mostly no nic or low nic so I am vaping for the flavor not the nic.I am going through a 10 ml bottle in about three days now.I suppose for the amount of vaping I am doing its not so bad I used to just use passthroughs all the time so I got used to consistant continuouse vaping.I just got psyched about the bigger batteries.
  19. I would think that after a while the stuff that gets left behind would make the rest of the liquid in the bottle taste like crap as you would be flushing the filler out every time you squeeze.I thinkit is great that someone is trying new stuff as so far it is just variations of the same old stuff.
  20. The ones with the aluminum threads like VaporTalk and ElectroNicStix sells are the best.I would recomend a 510 carto kit for them,it doesn't get any easier than that.
  21. So I built a 14500 box mod and I am a little disapointed .I was expecting all day vaping but I only get about four hours and then the protection circut shuts them down.I did get all day from the 18650's but the mod was way too large to be practical the 10440's were only marginaly better than stock batteries.I guess I am expecting too much from them .I have been vaping a lot more than usual as I came across some of the best liquids I have tried in the year I have been at this.Vapor Talk Dulcis ,Sweet Dawn and Tobacco and Janty Golden Sahara,Tobacco,RY4 and Texas.
  22. Actually Propylene Glycol is used in antifreeze where you do not want toxic stuff.We use it in our HVAC at the hospital in case there is a leak it will not poison someone.I am not sure who licks puddles on the floor but apparently there are those who do.It is used to freeze proof the water systems in RV's .That stuff is amazing all that and you can vape it too.
  23. They all will leak if you get too much liquid in them.The vapor is produced in the vicinity of the element and if the air didn't pass through there it would stay there.It really is amazing the way atties and carto's are engineered and built for the price we pay and that is marked up over the cost to produce them to cover shipping and handling and to allow our supplier buddies to make some coin.
  24. WYS4 from Wet Your Stick ,Janty RY4 and Vapor Talk Dulcis are my favorites in that type of liquids,they are all Dekang.Electronicstix has Dekang RY4 and I can't remember if I tried it or not but it should be ok.Janty has a velvet bag with three tobaco flavors in it that is really good stuff especially the Golden Sahara.
