Need to resize the SVD, its comically large. Need to take a picture from helicopter view to fit it all in
But anything would feel large, after using this
I have little hands, but the SVD is fairly large even in mini mode
No I don't but luckily I wiggled the pin up (well it kind of popped out a little) so I screwed it back down with the protank and it appears to be working! Tried it with my other batteries and they are dead though.
Ordered two more already from fasttech as well.
Cheap ego batts. They're hit and miss. I couldn't go back to them. I'm tempted by one of those apollo VV batts though. Maybe pop a low res nova on it for nights out.
I trust you'll be furnishing us with pics?Really want something better than eGo batteries but not quite robot todger...
It's a fair old robot todger, but that's actually what I like about it. It looks and feels very cool. So shiny!
I have no issue furnishing you with more pics
Should be fine. I'm sure you can get them even cheaper though. Or, you could buy a vamo/svd or any other cheap VV mod for about £20 and they have a resistance meter built in. And you'd have a VV mod too
Seem a bit pricey for what you get. I'm not a fan of the cigarette lookalikes because the batteries don't hold a great charge, and the auto pressure switches break too easily. I would suggest a kit that comes with an ego battery and a decent clearomiser. Battery will last you all day, push button to activate so it always works, and you can refill the clearomiser with a liquid of your choice cheaply. I'm sure someone who isn't on their phone will link you to a kit that will do all that for less money than the kits in that link
Haha my bad! Well I'm glad he's doing well. Cigalike kits are still the best selling and most profitable units to sell, so he's on the right track.
It helps to have small fingers, but I would stick with it, or at least keep the materials in case you want to have another go. The savings are just so epic it's worth keeping at it. Mesh on the other hand, that takes the patience of a saint!
Glad you cracked it. The top cap will get hot, which is normal, and after pulsing the coil loads (poor batteries, I keep one aside just to be abused for this) the whole base can be scorching hot.
Sometimes I think I have it down pat, then I go to build a new coil and spend days trying to get it right! The wick will bed in as well, which makes it easier to fix shorts as they pop up over the first few days (this will happen!). If the wick is good, never bin it lol.
I don't normally recommend vaping to non-smokers, but you can pick up zero-nicotine liquids and pop them in a device if that's what you fancy. A lot of the best premixed liquids only come with nicotine though so you may miss out on the favourites.
Probably not. I had all these problems when I first started (still do sometimes!). I presume you're already using the peter k method, so just pulse, and if you get a short/hotspot, twist the wick a little bit and try again. This seems to work for me.
No problem dude, it took me days to get my first coil right. I was inspired by your struggle to give it another go with my RSST since the existing coil was playing up.
Here's one I made last night that was surprisingly painless (funnily enough the peter k method failed me, one coil always ends up being loose and getting hot) so I just wrapped this straight on the wick and it was fine (usually shorts every time lol)
Do some work! I go a bit crazy when my battery dies or I run out of juice (you should have seen me when I started worrying 50ml wasn't enough for my week in Rome back in May!), so I feel your pain. I find getting stuck into something to take my mind off it helps. It's more the idea that I can't vape that is worse than the actual not vaping, so distract your brain. Go for a crafty fap in the bogs
Yeah, always wash your hands if you ever get juice on them, especially if you're working with concentrated Nic (wash immediately). In practice, a bit of juice on your hands is not going to kill you, but you just don't know how much Nic you're going to absorb so play it safe.
Yeah, that's the biscuit. I've got a Pro-tank 2 on my eGo...I believe they are rebuildable? Once this coil dies, I may rip the coil apart to have a look...reverse construction often works with me
I would go for a VW/VV device like the vamo or SVD (I like both, but the SVD feels better built to me and both can be had very cheaply from slowtech). I would definitely start recoiling your protank heads. If you're used to building RC cars then recoiling a tank head will be a walk in the park. Such good value!
I mixed up an almost identical batch (50ml) and am happily vaping it after week 3. I admit I used the accelerated steep method straight away and vaped it after a few days, but it smooths out very well after 2 weeks. I can't say I've noticed any difference between weeks 2 and 3 though.
The i30s, yeah you'll need replacement heads (dual coil is a biatch to recoil), but the protank you could recoil quite easily 100 times for the price of one new head.
