There is a huge world of Rebuildables to choose from, A good place to start would probably be a dripper as they Are generally the simplest to setup out of the box. As a rough rule silica Rebuildables are less of a challenge, work well on Regulated power supply that most people want to run their first Rebuildables on. If you are interested in genesis and stainless steel mesh wicks, then They are more suited to mech mods, for ease of setup.

Sometimes it's hard to know where to start, Customer wonders in "I smoke Rollies so want something like that......" Ok so far, I'm thinking they are talking about flavours, "I've seen the ones that are normal cigs, but those are just too BIG...." It might be worth mentioning the smallest thing I sell is an Ego650 and CE4 So I start trying to explain about battery sizes and why larger Atomizers work better, they stop me, "Why can't you just put those little watch batteries in them then, you need to have a word with your designers....and I want my percentage For coming up with the idea!" Hmmm, So ........I think it's going to be one of those days

Have you seen anything to indicate its not allowed - then puff away, if they don't want you doing something that you can reasonably assume is allowed then its up to them to politely make you aware.

I do pretty much the same but use tin foil I started the experiment with foil, then I was warned about it being potentially toxic when in contact with liquids. There is some research on aluminium poisoning from cooking with tin foil. I'm sure it's ok in limited exposure, but all day everyday straight into lungs is a bit of a worry.

The smaller the better, I've snugged some into my stormrider which already Had a tiny chamber and it's just astounding how much more flavour I now get. My ihybrid had been getting neglected but now it's back in regular use, making me smile again. I have a doc Dave turbine on the way and that has a reputation for being A flavour monster, it should be interesting to turn the volume up on that.

is it the protected type or unprotected. the reason i ask is i have seen my friends battery keep dying as when it gets hot it causes the protected circuit on the battery to kick in. get unprotected battery. hope this helps If any device is getting that hot it should be sounding warning bells, the only place you want any significant heat is in the coils, anywhere else and you have a problem. If you find a device is getting really hot then stop using it - remove the battery if you can, switch it off, find out whats going wrong before you reactivate it. Rechargeable batteries can become dangerous if over heated.

Welcome, Sounds like your muddling through with the good old trial an error method. A good place to learn about the equipment you have, or are thinking of getting, Is youtube. You can go for a general search and just type in the name of the device and "review" Or go to one of the big reviewers channels, Grimgreen Pbursado Or if you don't like an American accent Todds e cig reviews Just type in the name of the device into their search box, All the above also do general tutorials on vaping in general. And yes, at the end of the day it's about playing around until you find what suits you, There is no wrong way, just your way.....

This is what the filler ends up looking like after just over a weeks use

As many of you will be aware the best genesis atomisers have reduced air chambers, this is one of the best ways to bring out the flavour. the problem is that most that have the desired reduced chamber also cost quite a bit more than the more run of the mill stuff. i have seen the plastic inserts you can get for the RSST, I'm not keen on the idea of plastics next to what may become a red hot coil. I'm sure it's fine when everything is working perfectly and positioned just right, but on those other days I don't fancy vaping plastic fumes. So I have been playing with simple DIY ways to reduce my top cap chambers. i have currently settled on packing the unwanted space with cotton wool. it would be hard to miss the popularity of the material as a wick, but I like mesh wicks. So I can't see any issues with it being in contact with my juice or under the hood of my atomiser. i simply pack some cotton wool into the back half of the chamber, replace the top cap and then I can do a final fine tune through the drip tip opening. i then give it a soak with some liquid which holds it all in place. To make life easier i then leave to top cap in place and with the help of a long blunt needle I can refill the tank through the drip tip opening.

Hmmm, I saw pics of this a while ago, Without a display to see the atomiser resistance I struggle to see the point of it. Whatever "mode" you are in the battery works by sending out volts, If it's not quite right for you then it's not really a big deal to turn the adjuster a bit.
Vv is simple, just what it says on the tin. Vw is a calculated output, it takes what you have asked for in watts, Compares that with the measured coil resistance and works out how many volts To pass.

You should be congratulating yourself. Don't put yourself under pressure to leave analogues behind. My first few days I Told myself I could have one in the evening as a treat, it stopped being a treat Quite quickly as my taste buds started to revive. Most people still think of trying a ciggy now and again, as time goes on they Just become second best.

Sounds like you are enjoying the new toy. Re the flavour on your genies, both the ones you mention Have quite large open top caps, I find reducing the free space with Some cotton wool has great results. Just ball some up and compress into the back Half of the cap, you can do a final positioning once the top cap is back on By working through the drip tip opening. Once it's positioned nicely I soak it with juice to hold it in place and avoid any Risk of scorching. I then use a long blunt needle for refilling through the drip tip Opening so that the top cap isn't disturbed again.
