    To Nic or not to Nic - I challenge you...

    Ok, let me add my 5c's worth... Can you recall your stinky days? The 1st cigarette of the day? Deep inhale and..... that relaxation sinking over you.... this is bliss.... I never had this with a vape, not with 0mg (for obvious reasons) not with 3mg, 6mg, or 12mg, so as a nicotine delivery...

    Yup, well, here http://pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.1021/acssensors.7b00118 is more info on the 3D printed sensor and the the UConvict is unfortunately the University of Connecticut....

    Holy fireballs (lighting your cotton)

    Ok, looked at the video as well, since its the juice that's burning only, how is this supposed to remove the "cotton taste" that some people reportedly get? I still think if you're getting a cotton taste, you're doing something wrong, probably not letting the wick get properly saturated before...

    Holy fireballs (lighting your cotton)

    Ok, here are my thoughts on this. Don't, anytime a flame or temperatures close to where a flame in this scenario will burn, molecules come about that are carcinogenic and exactly that, which most of us are trying to get away from. Those that don't want to get away from these, you may as well go...

    Ok. This actually happened

    This has some merit, but none of this would imply, that in a series circuit the cell that is 1st, (what does that actually even mean? the one closest to the positive side of the circuit? that would be the last, since convention states that electrons do the moving, thus that would be the last...

    Ok. This actually happened

    We'll let's see, I'll shoot 5 of your Huskies, the 6th one has enough strength and endurance to drag 5 dead Huskies and a snow-sled around, that sounds feasible, now lets replace the Huskies in your scenario with 6 X 18650 Cells since its a parallel and series circuit combined, the analogy to...

    Ok. This actually happened

    @Cespian not sure what you're getting at, but Huskeys etc. don't make an apt analogy, that would only work if the Huskey's ran on a circular track where the Huskeys only could move the snow-sled if everything worked together properly, the front Huskeys would need to be tied to the back of the...

    Ok. This actually happened

    Ok, @Feliks Karp , I'll byte, please to be explaining, how, in a series circuit, the 1st battery gets hit more than the others, assuming there's more than one... this aught to be good, where's my popcorn...

    Resistance jump

    Its a funny I haven't seen, but I switched to TC control early on and am using pretty much SS316L mostly, I do have some NI200, but mostly do stainless steel, maybe someone else has more experience with Nichrome under VW mode, but I haven't seen such variations with my setup, so can't say...

    Resistance jump

    No, don't worry about the oxidisation, any metal (except gold) will oxidise to some degree or other, your nichrome should be fine, I'd think, give titanium wire a wide berth, else I think you're ok. I also use a Minikin as one of my mods, with a RDTA and a pair of SS316L coils and do use temp...

    Resistance jump

    The only reason you'd ever want to lock the resistance, is if you're running temperature mode, I'd think and I don't think you are, or are you? if you are and its still working with such a wide varyance in resistance, I'd think the mod isn't working right either...

    Resistance jump

    I wouldn't think there's much risk, you are running a regulated mod, else how would you know the resistance variance, so that's pretty much a safeguard, I'd think... Are your coils closely spaced? ie no spacing between the windings? It could also be resistance climbing due to oxidation on the...

    Resistance jump

    You're running power mode, I guess, not temperature mode, so the resistance variable, can be ignored, but assuming your mod is accurately reflecting the real resistance, then it is something to be mildly concerned about, why should your resistance vary by a relatively large amount, this, in my...

    Resistance jump

    When do you see the resistance increase? when the coils are hot? or after they've cooled down? Those numbers you're mentioning are a bit high/too much of an increase for Nichrome, I'd say you've got a bad contact somewhere else as well, either the screw contacts holding the wires in place, else...

    HE v non-HE

    That, at least, is better than being pissed on... but yes, I think its time to call it quits... what have we learnt? HE=Horribly expenive LE=Less expensive Vape quality is not directly proportional to the amount of money you burn^Wspend on your kit and the LE kit is pretty much great at keeping...

    HE v non-HE

    High End ? Horribly Elitist? Come lets all spend the money where we each want to spend it... Just for an example most seem to value the DNA based mods highly and they seem to be more pricey than I believe to be reasonable, but all that aside, whenever I see a picture of one on here someone...

    Vaping Pet Peeves

    Top of my list is... RBA, really? a Rebuildable Broken Atomiser? or is it a Really Broken Atomiser? Can't people just stick to RTA for a Rebuildable Tank Atomiser and not come up with horsemanure like RBA?

    A Device-Independent Evaluation of Carbonyl Emissions from Heated Electronic Cigarette Solvents

    I saw a video talk which, I suppose referenced this study.. can't find the video off hand but http://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0169811 is worth a read and someone more intelligent than me can explain it all :) but it would seem that temperatures from 215degC and...

    Need Help!! Vaping student in need!

    Frans, for pretty much most of us, this is a replacement for cigarettes, so, I'd imagine, most of us suck on our mods just about all day long, of course, depending where you work, this may not be possible, but I'd imagine if there were no restrictions on this, very few would not be using their...
