Ummm,I'm far from qualifying as a nerd or geek BUT Can I get extra credit for keeping a 10+
yr.old Dell Dimension 4600 Pentium4 with all original internals running?
Christopher can verify this dinosaur,He's had access. lol
 
P.S. I'm not gonna show my mancave cause all this cedar tounge-n-groove +
gun porn + antique VHS porn might break the interwebs hahaha!

As you can tell, I love DIY. For me it started as a search for stronger flavors, as I am flavor challenged. I love the endless possibilities.

If you have any questions or trouble, just ask. There are quite a few of us that love to help out.

I really like flavor Arts Apple Pie (one of my favorites), no perfumy taste, Flavor Art Tiramisu- also a bit sweet. Both of these I use up to 30 % flavoring and no perfume.
The most perfumy is the fruit type flavors. The best for fruit for me is Lorann watermelon--really concentrated and sweet.
I like flavor west chocolate mint...mixes great with coffee flavors.

For sweeteners, I use marshmallow flavoring. For cheaper rates you can go straight to the manufacturer...Both Perfumers apprentice and Flavor west have very good Marshmallo.
Caramel is another great sweet type flavor....perfumers apprentice and flavorart are my favorites there.

The real fruit type flavors are the hardest to mix with....they just never seem to taste quite right to me.

I had one for a while that said "CAUTION I Break for Invisible Animals" Can't do what I used to do. I used to light a smoke and flick the butt just right so it would explode on the windshield. Worked 90% of the time.

Nice man corner! I have to climb in bed and pull the covers over my head to have any privacy around here...

It's okay Jason... I hear there's a 12-step program just for us... 12 steps to this vape store... 12 steps to the next vape store... 12 steps to the computer...

Just because it's cool. there are cheaper ways to make a coil but I thought this was pretty sweet so I bought it!

Finally got a Subtank Nano...Happy early Birthday to me!

They're so small that when I take them off the batteries, they tend to get misplaced. A lot. So I get back ups. And back ups of back ups and so on.

Well, I had to take a break from work to give everyone an update...

I tracked him down this morning and handed him the "box"... he sighed heavily and said, "I guess it was too far gone, huh?"

I smiled, and opened the box, and showed him the "clean" Russian, and began to explain that I was giving it back to him because there was NOTHING wrong with it (aside from the idiot that sold it to him). He tried to be nice and insist that I keep it anyway, but I told him that I couldn't do that to him (or anyone for that matter)... He had been taken advantage of once already, and there was no reason why he shouldn't ENJOY his purchase, to the fullest extent possible!

I took it apart and showed him how parts are supposed to fit, how the coil was built and mounted, etc. I then educated him on using an Ohm meter (showed him how with mine), how to dry-burn the coil (and look for inside-out glow), how to tweak the coil if it gets bent during re-wicking... how to wick it, re-assemble, and how to properly fill (from the bottom).

He was so excited to see it properly built, and insisted that we fill it and "take a break" so he could try it out

BTW, Comp, he loved your PBFB, and I gave him your website so he can order more

He had bought that RTA about a year ago, and it had been sitting in the box (slowly leaking juice) since the day after he bought it Now, he has a fully functional, authentic RTA... and hopefully he's a little more educated as well

On Tuesday, I was vaping outside work and one of my co-workers noticed my gear and struck up a conversation. He realized I was using a Russian 91% and mentioned that he had one that was "junk", and wanted to know if I could use it for parts. Hey, free is free, so I said "sure"... he brought it to me yesterday... in the original box, unopened accessories, and leaking juice like crazy .

Last night, I was taking it apart for cleaning, and quickly realized exactly WHY it was such a horrible RTA for him



He normally uses KPT2's/Nautilus on a Mech-mod or Vamo, and some shop in/near Lexington, KY talked him into buying it (obviously to make a sale of a $139 RTA)... and this is what the shop built for him... with cotton piled-high around the coil, packed in the chimney!

I checked the resistance, and it's a 0.7 Ohm coil... on an RTA where builds are best in the 1.2-1.8 Ohm range (yes, the upper deck is scorched and insulator slightly melted - yes, it is wrapped around the air-hole). I honestly don't see how this thing could to anything but make the deck hot and leak like screen-doors on a submarine

I cleaned it up last night, and tonight I'm going to build it RIGHT @ 1.4-1.6 Ohms and organic Japanese cotton... and offer it back to him tomorrow... after-all, it's not his fault the shop is ran/staffed by idiots....

they wouldnt send me one for review but Amazon is sending me one fer the nice sum of $23.09...

Besides this being a load of BS and spamming the board...
How safe is your cleaning fluid for the coil which is the only item in a E-Cigarette, besides Vapers Tongue, that can cause flavor loss?
What chemicals are in this cleaning fluid?
Are they GRAS for human consumption?
How harmful is the residues that are left behind in tanks and on equipment?

You advertise that it will clean batteries as well...
How is that Safe?
How safe is it for the electronics in a mod?

MSDS for Ultrasonic Cleaning Fluid

"HEALTH HAZARDS (ACUTE AND CHRONIC):
Eye Contact: May cause irritation and redness. Contact of Sodium Carbonate may be corrosive to eyes and cause conjuctival edema and corneal destruction. Skin: Prolonged contact may irritate skin and cause redness to occur. Inhalation: May irritate the upper respiratory tract and mucus membranes. Ingestion: May be harmful if swallowed. May cause discomfort/diarrhea or stomach distress."
You, IMO, are advertising a product that is not only un safe for humans, but can case potential harm to the Mods and batteries you state on your site that it will clean.

Sometimes all it takes for someone to turn their life around is for someone to do something simple for them. The smallest acts of kindness, no matter how simple they seem to be, often can make the largest impact. You are a good man.

I recently bought parts to make my family/friends OKR T/10 Box Mods and have enough parts left over to make 9 kits. I bought my parts based off the kit found on findmyvapes.com, except I took a little liberty and sourced some different parts on my own.

The OKR T/10 chip delivers up to 50 watts. This chip allows you to adjust the voltage output from 3.4v to 6v.
This DIY kit includes all the essential parts needed to build your very own OKR box mod. It does not include wire, tools, etc

What is included:
OKR T/10 Hammond 1590g Enclosure w/ oring Keystone Dual 18650 Battery Sled Black horn style button Low profile FatDaddyVapes 510 Connector 200 ohm Potentiometer 220 ohm Resistor 1k ohm Resistor Zener 5.6v Diode 4 x Round Magnets I am asking $65 shipped for each kit. You will need to supply your own 20awg copper wire.

I do not have any pictures of a finished mod, but these are essentially HexOhm V1's with a fatdaddyvapes 510.

Thanks guys and Jason hope it works for them.

Finally school back in session

That is great. My sister and her husband came by last night. They are trying to get their lives back on the right track. Years of addiction, jail...ect. I loaded them up with a few tanks, coils, iStick 30, VV V3, chargers, and nearly every small bottle of juice that I have not touched in months (200+ mls) I am really hoping it gives them something to stop smoking, and a hobby to keep them busy.

That's awesome to help out your sister by paying forward your gear! I'm sure the MVP and Nautilus will help her greatly... I know my MVP was the game-changer for me when I started vaping

Flavors are subjective, but I think all smokers looking to quit have the mental need for a tobacco flavor, but she'll soon realize other flavors exist

The i23 appears to be a custom-build/logo version of the iStick @23W? It has the same size and look (even colors) of the iStick 20W, but seems to have a different programming on the chipset and hopefully the 510 connection has been upgraded to spring-loaded like the iStick 30W.... and hopefully the programming has been changed to RMS, which will make these superior in performance to the iStick 20W!

yer Goblin is on the same canoe as my Vertex from FastTech...

I hear some really good things about the UD Goblin. It's on my "hit list" queue.


The UD Goblin RTA

Below is a really in-depth review and build tutorial from Trevor Jones (the "Mr. Rogers" of the vaping world). He covers every possible question you may have about the Goblin RTA, and he's got some great tips on general coil building and RTA wicking, too.

I am really learning to like my SubTank Mini. I have started to learn to build on it and it is getting better every day. (coils are easy, it is the wicking that is tricky for me) Comp has really helped me. This is only my second RTA so I don't have a lot of experience. My first was a Billow. It worked great, but I didn't know what I was doing so I got rid of it.

I have seen this too: http://www.discountvapers.com/anyvape-sega-tank/ It is the AnyVape Sega. It has an RBA Section and uses Atlantis atomizers. I have not used one, or the vendor. I saw a review on YouTube and it looked interesting. It is on my list after the Delta II. I would pull the trigger on it, but I have spent too much money lately.

The reason I like these is the ability to put a factory coil in them. I do want to try a Russian or Kayfun one of these days, I just have not done it yet.
