[QUOTE=DeadCow;46881787]If you literally were taking in more vapor than oxygen, yes, that is why. Otherwise, make sure you properly clean your rda/coil regularly.
You see that black stuff on your coil? Take the cotton out once in a while and pulse the coil, then rinse with cold water and repeat until the black buildup is mostly gone.

I'm not a doctor, but as far as I know it's not all that harmful if at all, so don't worry.

An unrelated tip: I can see from the two wraps closest to the camera that your coil doesn't heat evenly. Next time you build a coil, before you put a wick in it, pulse it a few times to check it's heating evenly, from the middle-out. If it isn't, pinch it while it's glowing hot with some pliers or tweezers to press the wraps together. It will give you more vapor/flavor for the same resistance[/QUOTE]

Premade coil I got from a friend, and it does heat evenly. I think the reason that buildup happens is because I run 100% VG juice. I cleaned it just yesterday too. When I pulse it to the point where the whole coil heats up, the outermost wraps do heat up, just not all the way. I've made sure there isn't any hotspots either.

So I guess my Ago G5 pen is more of an e-pipe than a vaporizer since it combusts the weed. I've heard it doesn't perform nearly as well if you use a screen to prevent combustion. Though I like it anyways

[QUOTE=CritNick;46884691]Why not just build an RDA?[/QUOTE]

I want to, but I'm shit with my hands and I'm afraid to invest in a kit and start at it, only to cock it up and fall back to something I could've gotten in the first place and saved the funds on. I dunno. I'm drunk.

[phlexiglass]

I've concluded that the juice that I bought a few days ago is causing my negative reactions. Probably allergies. They became way more pronounced today after I was vaping and after researching a little, they're really common allergy symptoms so I'm gonna get rid of my juice and get some new juice.

It's really not hard at all. I have humongous hands, not to mention they are very unsteady, and I get along fine. Just takes some practice. You don't need to buy a kit to build coils, all you need is some wire and something to wrap around like a screwdriver or a drill bit.
RDAs are not all that expensive either, you can get some really cheap yet decent ones on the internet for around $20. And you can get a 100-ft spool of kanthal for $5-10 on amazon. Plus, not only is it satisfying to build them yourself, it's also cheaper in the long run. Stores charge out the ass for pre-built coils.

[QUOTE=DeadCow;46884321]Perhaps you have a short in your mod? That's really strange and I can't think of many reasons why it would do that[/QUOTE]
You were correct, the atty side bung was full of water from when I sanded the mod loll

Fucked my new vct's now I bet :(

To be completely honest I felt really intimidated by RDAs when I first started using them but they're 100x easier to keep up with and use then RBA's. It's nearly 3-4 parts and thats it. Just replace your wick and coils thats all you gotta do.

Buy a SIG-S if you can. It's 20$ and its really reliable for a beginner RDA. The only problem i've had with mine was the airflow holes were a bit small so I drilled them out, and the juice well is kinda small but it's a cloud chaser for like 25$ total.

My liquid is brown

Why is it brown

On your wick? in your bottle? what

[circuitbawx]

It'll literally turn brown inside the tank after 12 hours of being in there.

I assume you mean it turned brown after several days. That's called steeping, it's normal. If there's a drastic color AND taste change that means the juice has gone "bad." It's not hazardous, but it tastes like shit when juice goes bad. That usually takes a couple months though.

[editline]8th January 2015[/editline]

Ok, after 12 hours, it definitely didn't go bad. That's just the juice reacting to oxygen/heat exposure.

[circuitbawx]

Yeah, it still tastes fine. Thanks

[Solomoncrunch]

Yeah juice darkens over time because the nicotine in it oxidizes. Nothing to worry about

Oxidation of nicotine

I got my 26awg Kanthal yesterday so while at a friends house I wrapped my first parallel. 4/5 wraps, comes out to .3 ohms. Thing hits like a beast, can't wait to get my new juice and my new RDA in.

[NINTENDUDECT]

I'm currently using an eleaf istick with a regular Aspire Nautilus. Finally ordered a toolkit(really didn't feel like ordering an ohm meter and all the tools separately, plus it was a good deal) and a Magma Paradigm v2 clone to get into rebuilding. I'm gonna be using the SmokSid with an A20 18650 battery with it.

Any recommendations and advice for a beginner? The kit comes with 6ft of 28awg Kanthal and some organic unbleached Japanese cotton to get me started.

I got my first vape, a Kanger Evod Starter Kit, and I'm finding that it's spitting out droplets of e-liquid in the vapour, and it sounds like it's bubbling when I toke. Any ideas what I've done wrong?

[AcidAmbience]

Try tightening your coil or replacing it with a new one.

[arcticdrinker]

Hey guys I've got a dripper vape and I got my tonsils removed today. When would you say I'd be okay to vape again?

[CritNick]

When you're fully healed. Any foreign material, and drawing in smoke will either A) Infect your open wounds, or B) Give you dry socket C) Open your wounds. I'm sure you see your dentist for a followup so i'd ask him when it's okay to vape again.

the thing about the G5 is that yeah its a shitty vape, but for its price point it's a higher efficiency, butane-less pipe, so its absolutely not a bad thing to have

[agentalexandre]

Has anyone here tried Mewlew's Magic from Velvet Cloud? Looks pretty good from the reviews I've seen online.

Edit:

Ended up getting a bottle. Tastes pretty good but has a bit of a weird smoky flavour at the end, can't quite put my finger on it. Might be the nicotine since I'm used to vaping 0mg.

[meanwhile]

Today I picked up an EVOD Starter Kit, and so far it's been really great. Any flavour recommendations?

[arcticdrinker]

Mount Baker Vapor has the best juices and its dirt cheap. It's in America though but I'm sure they ship to the UK.

I'll be sure to check them out.

What's the lowdown on Golden Virginia style juices? I've still yet to find one that tastes even remotely close to real GV.

I just lost my X.Fire that had adjustible voltage like the spinner so I had to go out and buy a new one that's a spinner V2 and a new Aspire head to go with it. The only reason I didn't switch to a kanger right there is because I already bought a few atomizers that fit the aspire heads.

What kind of flavors do you guys have, if any? I keep wanting to get more and haven't finished the ones I got so I gotta hold myself back on buying more :v:

I got vanilla ice cream, root beer, coconut, caramel apple, banana cream pie, and butter rum flavors.
