You're welcome. It's a good site, lots of wonderful folk here. Oh! Be sure to dry the battery off extremely well before each charging. You've undoubtedly already discovered that any time you lose oomph, in between charges, drying off the connection will take it back to par. (but in case you haven't, or in case a lurker hasn't, I thought it worth sayin').

Yep. Cartomizers, Clearomizers, 510 atomizers, ... all those types of delivery systems leave little puddles. (big puddles are not common, just little puddles). Welcome to VT!!!

It was fun wasn't it. I enjoyed all the ecig questions, (except, height and weight lol). His questions are pertinent and well thought out.

Right on!!! Congrats Dan, this is great! I'm smilin' big time I hope you know. You'll be doing the "Genesis Tilt" song and dance routine until we get this wicking better for you, but at least you can vape it. Great job with the coils and ohms! Off the top of my head, here are a few things to check for: 1. Make sure the wick is not bent/kinked/ 2. Make sure the coils are snug but not tight. (no creasing!) 3. The mesh might need the seasoning trick. (drop ejuice, burn with bic lighter,) 4. The wick might need the center opened up again. (they squish shut easily during handling). 5. The wick might be filling up all the air space around the hole (it shouldn't fill the hole completely, need a bit of air around it). Here are a few tricks to try: 1. To keep the wick straight and true, coil the wick and then insert into the hole and tie it off. (leave the needle/paperclip inserted until finished). 1A. If #1 causes hot spots because it is now standing too far away from center post, then just add some 2.5mm SS washers to the post to bring the post closer to the wick, or try the Spring and Washer trick suggested by the posters above or try the "L" trick which is described in #3 below. 2. Cut the tank end of the wick at a 45% angle, to help break the suction off the tank. (or, do like Phil does in his latest video and cut 1/4" up so that it will "fan" a little into the tank). 3. Make an "L" shaped wick. Cut your mesh into an "L". The long part of the L will go into the tank, while the leg/flag will fit under your coil. (the leg of the mesh is rolled into the wick, just like you did the regular part. Just keep rolling. The size of the leg/flag to cut is, of course, up to you and your particular needs). Doing this will let you slide a skinny wick into the hole, and still be able to hold more juice because the juice will travel up into the thicker upper part of the wick. The thicker, fatter, upper part of the wick, will bring the wick closer to your center post. A win win. (hard to explain). Drilling out that tiny wick hole is so going to help tremendously. And you can still do the "L" in order to bring the wick closer to the center post if you want/need. While he's at it, maybe he can drill out the airhole in the top cap to 1.2mm if it's too tight of a draw. (some of these are too tight). Hoorah! And it only took you an hour on your first one??? That's way cool. You'll be flipping these out in nothing flat before you know it.

(copied from a post made by Mamamia, so I don't mess up) Dr. Konstantinos Farsalinos, the Greek Heart Surgeon who already did a study on Vaping and its effects on various heart diseases (the findings always in FAVOR of vaping!!) has launched a new internet survey last night in Europe and asks VAPERS FROM ALL AROUND THE WORLD TO PARTICIPATE AND FILL IN THE QUESTIONNAIRE. It'll only take a few minutes to do so - but the effects of this really big international study/survey could turn out as a great tool for us all in our effort to counteract the restrictive policies of various lobby-driven institutions around the world!!! So please, just click the link and participate. Thanks for your attention!! SURVEY http://www.ecigarette-research.com/web/index.php/component/content/article?id=80 PS: within the first 12 hours of the publication of this news, already more than 2.000 vapers from Europe have participated... just to let you know...

I mixed the Mikes sweet banana desert, and it's good! Simple, easy, and delicious. It's a little heavy on the banana flavor, room to explore, so next batch I'll try it with Bavarian cream instead of the Banana cream and see how that goes.

This one does.

The average bear vapes anywhere from 3-6 mls a day, (depending on the atomizer being used), This same bear used to smoke approx 1 carton a week. This means that the vaper would have smoked 3 cartons of cigs a week if a carton were 10ml. With that said, a carton is closer to 30ml.

haha, yeh, it gets quiet around here when everyone's off working or playing. But, they will be very appreciative to see these posts when they get back. Never underestimate the appreciation for tutorials like these.

Excellent tutorial!! I just might pick one of these up. Oy my aching list...

Excellent tutorial!!! Thanks so much for this.

I don't know the answer, but until someone who does comes along, here is a tutorial for you if you're interested. There are more, but I don't have enough bandwidth to go through them. Just put the metric numbers into google and google will convert for you.

Sweet! I did a little bit more digging and discovered that extra tanks can be bought in the coops for the RSST. This is great news! The Vendors surely will be buying up extras too. ::nudge nudge::

Good catch! The new provari can now handle a 1.1 I believe, but yes, the Vamo is 1.2,, you're right. My bad.

The wicks are like Hulk Hogan, there's not much you can do to hurt them. Wrapping your coil too tighly to where it slices through is about the only way to hurt these. Oh! Also torching to death will crumble them. Just torch a smidgen, (orange glow, NOT red), and for only a few seconds, to burn off machine oils and whatnot. Your Vamo has nice AMPs, and won't mind an OHM of 1.2 or higher. I'm pretty sure It won't like the lower than 1.2. but, that's where you can adjust your volts up a notch or two. I would go for the 6/5 wrap of 32 Kanthal wire, and increase the Vamo's volts as needed.

Right on! I know Phil and Scott (Igetcha69) think highly of them, and I am so tempted to get one too. I'm hoping the vendors will be able to get us the spare tanks for them first. Knowing me, I'll crack my one-n-only first thing, without thinking. (I'm spoiled with my SS tanks, don't ever have to worry about cinnamon, clove, citrus,). Be sure to let us know how you get on with them! and let us know when/which Vendors carry the spare tanks for them.

Pink Spot Vapors has sample sizes to try. I love their G-Spot (grape), Black Mamba, Taihitti Breeze, Jamaican me Crazy, and so many more. The Grape is my most favorite, very strong grape flavor. http://www.pinkspotvapors.com/PSV-SAMP-p/psv-samp.htm

Sweet, Thanks!!

I second the Pink Spot fruit flavors! Especially the Grape (G-spot). Strong, and bountiful flavor.

The flavors and 18mg premixed unflavored from my opening post came in just now! I'll be mixing up some fun stuff tomorrow. (would right this minute but I'm over visiting the kids tonight).

That is a neat trick! The Orion has always come that way, I think it was the first one like that. Peeps have since made their own, by using a ballpoint spring, but I never have tried it yet. I even went so far as to buy the spring set for my DID and haven't even tried it yet lol. I'm so glad you brought this up!! It just might be a great game changer for many coilers, new and old alike. Please share a link to the video if you find it again. Thanks!

As promised, the new craze consisting of using SS cable/rope wire instead of mesh wick.. (make sure it is pure SS, without nylon or galvanized or anything like that). This is still in early infancy, so experiment at your own risk or mods risk. (I'm going to experiment as soon as I can get the rope/cable stuff). Some vapers like the 7/7, but the Giant prefers the 7/19. It might depend upon which genny you're using? The entire video is worth watching, but for those who wish a quick reference point for the SS Rope talk, skip to the 29 minute mark.

Mike!! Oil up your spaceship, we're going to Hawaiii!!

Congrats on your new RBA/RDA!! Thanks for the tips on drilling out that tiny airhole. I still need to drill mine out one of these days..

Phil just uploaded his review of the RSST and gives it a street shout out. The downside of these? No replacement parts available as of yet. (but ... that can change like the weather or it can stay a drought, only time will tell). Enjoy! Oh, and check out that beautiful wrap! Way to go Phil!!
