Vaping mistakes

[monty]

Got anything you wish makers or manufactures had done or find yourself wondering why didn't they do that sooner? Here's a couple.
1) Instead of of using boost and frequency modulation, they should have used thicker Kanthal lower Ohm coils in attys. Then they could have used buck circuits in VV and VW mods, cheaper and a smooth output.
2) Why I mean why did and still do genny makers have to use a post and two nuts to secure the Kanthal. These pull the coil out of alignment and make setting up unnecessarily difficult. Have they never heard of post holes?

Why do 90% + manufacturers put shit coatings on their mods. BIG MISTAKE.

Edit : all box mods should come with a silicone sleeve as standard.

Considering how much feedback they get here's a list of stuff they've had plenty of time to put right.

Buttons that rattle.
USB on the base.
Fixed 510 pins.
Or worse, those that don't allow for a flush fit at all.
Loose battery door covers.
Paintwork that last about 5 mins. (Yes Kanger I mean you)
Standardized drip tip connection.
Fancy build decks that don't do **** all, except add cost.
Coil heads that are the actual resistance they are meant to be and not a country mile away.
Labels that stay on the juice bottle.
Airflow adjustment that stays where it's set for.
Screens that you can see in bright sunlight.

I couldn't agree more unclegromit particularly about standardising drip tips (diameter and length and 510 connections (length on both mods and atties).

I wish my Rolo's had been made with fat daddy 510's

Disagree completely, I always use the wide bore tips or chuff tips if available with RDAs and RTAs for a very enjoyable DTL vape, a standard fitting would limit the bore size to MTL dimensions.

Talking genies, I love my IN'AX but them springs for holding the wire do my nut in.

I just wish they hadn't called them E-cigarettes from the off and used Vaporizer instead, and hadn't used the term smoking in connection with them. But what's done is done.

Perhaps I expressed that wrongly... I don't mean the diameter of the top section that goes between your lips, I mean the lower section with the O rings that fits into the atty.

But that dictates the diameter and therefore the airflow. I like those RDAs and RTAs that have a top which can be swapped between a large diameter opening able to take very wide drip-tips and a standard 510 diameter hole so everybody is catered for. I find the standard 510 diameter hole, even with a mega wide drip-tip to be compromised in the amount of vapour passing through and for me reduces the flavour a bit.

But, on the other hand, labels fixed to the bottle with some super goop that refuses to clean off no matter what products or methods you try.


I say this as a person who re-uses bottles.

My biggest mistake (well not acutely a mistake) is my temper with things vape related meany a time things get lobed up the garden or thrown away in a temper tantrum.

Note to self " just bloody grow up "

That's exactly what I want. Labels that stay on.
