Quality Inn I-70 at I-25 2pm till late...all details on FB

This July 25th - 27th there will be a convention in Sandy, UT. The 1st Annual VIP Vape Street convention. I am gonna try to make it out in time to attend. Hope to see some of you there!

Ok, so we left the house at 9 a.m. this morning, picked up a friend of hubby's then proceeded to drive for 2 hours to get to VapeCon. Arrived at 11 a.m. and went to the ticket booth to buy our tickets. First problem. They do not offer a 1 day ticket. You have to buy a 3 day pass. So that stunk, since we could only go today. Can't even give our ticket to someone else, because the ticket comes with a tightly fit wristband that you have to wear.

Stood in line till 12:15 then we were inside. Started off with a bang, we were given reusable bags, and vape calenders (with hot ladies for all you guys). Found a display that gave us each a free shirt and a free hat, woo hoo! My vaping wardrobe is growing! lol Found a few displays that were handing out free samples (sadly all but 2 were giving away 0 mg nic..) Went through the entire hall about 5 times. If you have a smartphone with Facebook and Instagram you could enter raffles and get some more free stuff, but if you don't have that, well, you are out of luck, which we were because we had absolutely no internet connection in there!

We left around 3 pm because hubby's friend had to be home by 5. So, now I will tell you the problems with VapeCon. (I was disappointed).

1. No single day tickets
2. Only 1 expo hall, ECC had 2 and an outdoor tent!)
3. Very bad cell signal, and all vendors wanted you to like them on Facebook to get something free.
4. This event goes on for 3 days, but you can see everything in less than 5 hours.
5. Many vendors that were advertised to be there, were not there. (Suicide Bunny not being there really disappointed me!)


Now here were the highlights:
1. Local Vape gave out great stuff! T-shirts (good quality!), trucker hats
2. E Juice To Die 4 gave out juice in a high mg that tastes great. 18 mg
3. Found and bought 2 new juices. Holy Grail Elixir (Cream Supreme flavor), Mad Vapes, Big City (Seattle flavor)


And on that note, I am going to bed, my feet hurt, and I'm exhausted. So to wrap this up, it was a fun time, but definitely less than ECC. But than again, ECC was my first expo, so I guess that kind of spoiled me....

Ok, so I was lucky enough to get to attend the Electronic Cigarette Convention (ECC) this summer. Now I was informed by my husband that VAPECON will be in the same location as the ECC was (Ontario Convention Center) at the end of this month! Holy cow! Free juice, fun activities, I'm in! Well, I will be if I can afford it.

So, just curious, will anyone from the forum be attending? It is Friday Oct.31 thru Sunday Novemer 2. We would be going on the Saturday event.

Maybe we can organize a meet up there!

These CLR heads work beautifully. I just got a couple and loaded one with a nickel (Ni200) build to use with my temp. control mod. The 28g 2.5mm 11/10 unspaced coil I wrapped metered at .1Ω exactly. It's wicked with JOC and with the eGo ONE's airflow control wide open, it's as easy as breathing...fantastic airflow.
 
BTW - I just saw where Joyetech has heads for the eGo ONE clearomizer with your choice of nickel or titanium coils for use on TC mods. Very cool.

Really?!? I have to buy another mod now?!? Thanks a lot, jasonculp!!!

HMMMMMMM
 
 

Looked pretty cool didnt get too get all touchy feely with it I was on a rush
 
 

Hello All,
I have been stuffing all my equipment in one drawer and my liquids in another for years. This being more then a 3 year hobby I have collected quite the collection so I found this online and HAD to get it. I knew when Karen, the young lady who does this work, asked me for all of my measurements that this organizer is going to be exactly what I was looking for. The picture that is full of equipment and juice is the one on the web site front page and she said she made that one for her brother. I told her that I wanted one just like it except I needed one that sits on my desk instead of hanging on the wall (like her brothers does). She says you tell her how you want it and she will make it just like you want it, And can you believe it is only $45.00?

Hey Guys I remember a thread about a coil making kit that you guys liked. Im thinking of getting one who knows maybe it will help with coil building lol.
 
What do you guys use/recommend

If you had to pick just one setup (mod, juicer, tip, type of coil, battery, etc.) as your favorite, what would it be and why? It needs to be something that you own and use regularly.
For me, it would be:
Heatvape Invader Mini 50W TC mod (versatile and indestructible) eGo ONE clearomizer (small, adjustable draw, and never leaks or gurgles) Rebuildable CLR head with Ni200 coil & cotton wick (temp control and cheap to rebuild) Smok SS & Pyrex drip tip (never gets too hot) Efest IMR18650 2800mAh 35A battery (plenty of power and reliable) Like most serious vapers, I have a lot of vaping gear (understatement) that I really, really like for various reasons, but this would be what I would grab if I had to pick just one.

I think I said a long time ago that I smoked analogs for 20+ years and it would be ok if I was to vape for just as long if I felt like it.   Well, I like my vape and been doing so for nearly 6 years but know I'm thinking I just might want to let it go.  It's been great.  It got me off of the stinkies in just a couple of months.  It saved me thousands of $$$ by not buying tobacco.  I discovered VT and made lots of friends and learned how to make my own mods and juice.  Mostly everything positive but I am thinking now that I want to be done with it.  I just don't want to have to remember to have something charged up.  I want to be totally hands free.  And I don't want to feel dependent on nicotine or just the habit of vaping.   So that's my thoughts on the issue, I think I'll quit be quitting within a months time.  Can anyone else relate to this or have you even thought about it? 

First, she distracts me
"honey, fix my tank. It's not working for me"
"well when was the last time you changes  the coil?" 
"I don't know" (translation: 3 weeks)
"okay, let me fix you up". 
So while I'm putting anew coil in for her I hear this sound.  It's familiar in a strange kinda way....HEY WAIT A MINUTE! That's my rig firing!
the look in her eyes was priceless. She looks straight at me. "I want this", she says. 
Yep, next thing I'm building her a fresh coil in one of my sub tanks (translation: her new sub tank).  Fill it with her current favorite peach soda.  OMG, you should have seen her eyes glaze over.  Yeah, her tanks are history.  Classic.  

Anybody heard anything about this newness?

My e-cigarrette popped and went straight into my eye leaving my eye bloodshot but no liquid present as this happened to anyone else

Does anyone make a multi compartment tank that would hold more than one flavor for people like me who change flavors many times a day i guss kinda like a gun cylinder or somethimg like that,if not someone should.

Does anyone make just a male to female 510 to 510 adapter that could be put on your battery and left there so when you spin tanks off and on you dont mess up battery threads instead any damage to threads would be done to cheap replaceable adapter.

I've decided I want to try a rebuildable. Any suggestions on a reasonably priced set up to try for a newbie? Any must have tools or kits? Any resources you can send me to so I do it right? Thanks in advance for any help:)

Before I start my review of the eGo-c I'm just gonna throw out there that this is my first post and I am a brand new member to this forum, however I am not new to electronic cigarettes but this is my first review ever so... Here it goes

I have been smoking analog cigarettes for almost 6 years before I actually quit smoking completely.

I did not know about electronic cigarettes until 2 years ago when I was first introduced to them by my good friends mother. I remember that I always wanted to quit smoking and that seemed like a good alternative, she bought hers from a vendor called vapor4life and it was their brand e-cig along with the flavor. That was the first time I have ever tried an electronic cigarette and I have to say I was pretty impressed.

That's when I decided I was going to buy one for my self. I have spent hours researching when I finally purchased my first e-cig a year ago, it was the GreenSmoke electronic cigarette. When I recieved the package I remember that the greensmoke was much better than the first one I tried and that it didn't feel too odd compared to a analog.
The 2 piece carto design was good, and very convenient for a noob, you just screw on a color coded carto and you're good to go.

But that wasn't really what I was looking for, the battery life was a joke and the cartos didn't last long enough for me.
So as time went on I grew sick of that e-cig and slowly went back to my newport/turkish royal routine.

A little less than a year went by, and after having tried a few e-cigs (disposables, Blu, 7-11 brand, and the 510) I realized that maybe i should look into a different type of e-cigs.

That's when I stumbled across the Joye eGo series. At first I didn't know much about them, but I did some research and I decided to purchase the joye ego-c from cignot. I ordered the starter kit with 5 Low Resistance atomizer heads and one 1000mah battery along with the regular 650mah.
First of all I wanna say I am very impressed by the customer service, I changed my order and everything still went smoothly and quickly.
Shipping was quick but the package only traveled 42 miles so I can't really say anything about that.

The product arrived at my house 2 weeks ago on wednesday and as soon as it was in my hands I threw the 1000mah on the charger so it can be on full charge and started vaping with the 650mah battery and the tobacco flavor that came with the kit. At first the flavor was horrid and burned my throat, but I soon realized that I read somewhere about some oil that is in the atomizer and I think that's what I was tasting. As I vaped through about two full tanks the nasty flavor went away and the atomizer finally broke in.
That's when I could actually taste the flavor, enjoy blowing thick clouds, and ever since all I can say is wow.

I'm gonna start on the battery life:
I found the 1000mah battery life very impressive as it lasted me since wednesday night until saturday night of pretty heavy vaping (I used to be a half a pack a day smoker, I seem to go thru about 2 tanks of liquid in a day)
The 650 is just about 2 days, sometimes a little less depending on how often I use it.

The overall design is nice and sleek, very pen-like and feels really solid.
Putting the eGo together wasn't too hard, it's kinda like legos you just have to fit a few pieces together and it's done.(I don't like to use instructions)
The eGo is very easy to use, and the new battery life indicator on the batteries is a nice touch.

Vapor production in my opinion is great, I know it depends on the PG/VG mix, but I found that I get very nice vapor from both very dark and thick or light and thin liquids(I've heard about some wicking problem with the eGo-T not sure if it is still an issue with the eGo-C).

The flavor is very nice and distinct. I've read reviews that the flavor of the vapor on the eGo is a bit light, but I have never personally experienced this problem. I haven't tried many flavors as I am new to the tank system as well as the liquids since I used to vape from a 2 piece carto design, but I am currently in posession of 5 different flavors; 16mg coffee flavor I got from the local smoke shop (Ironically also named VT), 16mg tobacco that came with the kit, 24mg RY8 from pink spot vapors (favorite so far) 24mg Nuhport I got from a online website(tastes nothing like a newport, more like tootpaste) and a 24mg pinkspotvapor signature flavor I got as a gift. the RY8, coffee and the tobacco are great. The Nuhport and pink aren't the best, but that's just my opinion. I would like to find a good menthol flavor but I don't know where to look, there's about 1 thousand different ones online so maybe someone can guide me to a good one?

Throat Hit has been plenty for me, I have only used 16mg and 24mg liquids though so I don't know about any weaker ones, but I assume it would still be good.

The price is right, what can I say I got 2 batteries, 5 pre-filled tanks, 5 atomizers and a charger for $79 with free shipping.

Overall score - 5/5
Battery life - 5/5
Value - 5/5
Vapor Production - 5/5
Throat Hit - 5/5
Flavor - 5/5
Design - 4/5 (Only reason I give it 4/5 is because it looks like you're sucking on a pen and then blowing out smoke, but I don't really like to smoke my e-cig in public places anyways so it doesn't matter)

Overall the eGo-c is a fantastic little device and the quality of the product is outstanding.
As I said before this is my first review but this website was like my bible when researching e-cigarettes so I just wanted to throw in my two cents.

Top - Baby eGo 350 mAh with 1.7 ohm Single-Coil Smoktech Shorty Cartomizer



Bottom - Vision V3 Rebuildable Clearomizer (shown for size comparison)


At precisely three inches long, the PV above is perhaps my new favorite pocket tool for conducting clandestine vaping sessions while at work...strictly a no-smoking zone. Not wanting to get shot down before even explaining that I wasn't technically "smoking", I decided to keep my vaping on the sly to avoid confusion (and preserve job security).

ok so i wandered aqround this forum for a few days b4 deciding to buy a joye ego-c starter kit and here the start of my review. i bought this to stop smoking and this will be my first review.



ok so i ordered my ego-c from (theveteranvapor.com) ordered it on 12/29/12 got it on 1/4/12 with priority mail,very speedy and the vet threw in a free sample of juice with my order,awsome site and great service i would recomend anyone interested to check his site out.




ok on to the review. so today is day two, no smokes(woo whoooooo) so far im very satisfied with my ego and find it way better than any other kit i have bought in the past,unlike all the others the batterys on the ego last a very long time and they charge fast.my order came with precharged batteries and i used the 2 ego-c all day yesterday with no prob. so i left one ego-c stock with the supplied cone and tank and i have the other on a ego CC long wick clearomizer with changeable coil 1.8 ohm,not sure of the resistance of the atomizer on the other.


so first off the stock ego-c.....

at first i really loved this set-up as it gave very tastey vapor and was easy to fill,but the farther into day 1 i got i noticed that the tank seemed to be leakin out and onto the cone on the outside of the ego,as well as a small dab of juice on the tip of the battery kind of dissapionted there but i think that it is just a gravity thing as today i have kept it upside down all day and noticed no leak.

so just because of that i would give the stock ego-c like a 3.5 out of 5. note the leak was very minimal and can be worked around,also i wasent suprised by this because i read many threads here that people had the same prob.


ok now on to the clearomizer ego

ok now i am reeally loving this set-up easy to fill easy to change the coil easy to vape...
so far i have had no probs what-so-ever with this clearamizer no leaks great vapor and taste,i love it so much i ordered another and 5 more coils.

i give it a 5 out of 5 in my book.


ok so as i said this is day 2 will update as time gos on...




thanks to everyone who helped this noob out and got me on the right track,this is a great site for all your vaping info,keep up the good work guys...

It's time for electronics 101, and how it applies to PVs.

Current flow (measured in amps) is the movement of electrons through a conductor. These electrons are sent out by the power source (volts) to act as the workers, and resistance (measured in ohms) is in the path of current flow and will slow the electrons (workers) down. Power (measured in watts) is the measurement of work being performed in the circuit, and will always manifest itself in the form of heat (doesn't that sound like heating up an atomizer to you?). Of course too much heat (power/watts) will pop the atty.

Now for the math, and I promise it's not that complicated:

A physicist by the name of George Simon Ohm discovered that there is a tight relationship between voltage, current, and resistance. This relationship can be described and predicted by mathematics, which has become known as "Ohm's Law". The basic statement of this relationship is that voltage and current are directly proportional (when we increase voltage, current will increase as well), and that current and resistance are inversely proportional (when we increase resistance, current will decrease).
Voltage = current multiplied by resistance
Current = voltage divided by resistance
Resistance = voltage divided by current
Power = voltage multiplied by current

Now let's apply Ohm's Law to a PV:

A 3.7v device with a standard atty;
Voltage 3.7v divided by an atty that is 3ohms = 1.23amps
The heat produced by this is determined by the power in watts which is 3.7v multiplied by 1.23amps = 4.563watts
We know this works, and we can use these numbers to compare the performance of the other combinations.

A 3.7v device with a LR atty;
3.7v / 1.5ohms = 2.46amps
3.7v * 2.46amps = 9.126watts (remember, this is the heat)

A 5v device with a standard atty;
5v / 3ohms = 1.66amps
5v * 1.66amps = 8.33watts (remember, this is the heat)

A 5v device with a LR atty;
5v / 1.5ohms = 3.33amps
5v * 3.33amps = 16.66watts (remember, this is the heat.....POP)

A 6v device with a standard atty;
6v / 3ohms = 2amps
6v * 2amps = 12watts (remember, this is the heat...on the bourder of POP)

A 6v device with a HV atty;
6v / 4.3ohms = 1.395amps
6v * 1.395amps = 8.372watts (remember, this is the heat....is this really any better than a standard atty at 5v?)

My ohm values for the attys are approximate, but you get the picture. This really answers all the questions "will this work with this?", "will that work with that?". I also think that anyone dabbling in making their own mods should understand these basics when choosing components that will work well together, and avoid injury.

A Noobie's Guide to Batteries

While in the chat room one night, someone was asking if there was a guide for batteries. He was hearing all these battery numbers in the conversation, and not familiar enough to follow along. I decided to write this guide to help familiarize the noobs to all the batteries we use for mods.



All of the batteries we use are either 3.7volts or 3.0volts. There is however a 5volt battery used in the Mako Maksi, but it's not one of the popular batteries you frequently hear about, so I'll just concentrate this discussion on the 3 and 3.7volt varieties.



The 3.0volt batteries are primarily used in pairs for a total of 6.0volts for 6volt vaping, and single battery mods are 3.7volts. The 3.7volt batteries are usually only paired if the mod has a voltage regulator (adjustable or fixed) for consistency in voltage throughout battery life and load conditions. Now that you have a little background on how the batteries are used, let's try to make sense out of the numbering system.



The first 2 digits of the battery number indicate the dimension measuring across the battery. So a 10440 measures 10mm across, a 14500 measures 14mm across, and so forth, and the last 3 digits make reference to the length. For example the last 3 digits in a 14500 battery would suggest that the length would be 50.0mm long, but that would be for the unprotected version of the battery. The overcharge/overdischarge protection circuit will add between 2 and 3 mm to the length of the battery, so a 14500 is really 52.5mm long.



Aside from the physical size of the battery, there is something referred to as mah (milliamp hour) rating. This is a capacity rating of the battery, and indicates the amount of energy the battery can store. In other words, how long it will last between charges (more mah, more charge life). Physical size will affect mah ratings, and therefore smaller size batteries will typically have lower mah ratings. Some batteries are available in more than 1 mah rating.



Below is a listing of the more commonly used batteries in e-cigarette mods.










**This is not meant to be a complete list, so please don't shoot me of you know of a battery I didn't list.**
