It doesn't, not once, not a single littlpy drop. I tens to keep in mind where the wick sits and keep that side up if I'm laying it down, it's just logical to my left brain lol. But yeh, no leaks at all. Only time I've had that is with the protank 2, stopped leaking after I recoiled it but it just misses the spot the AGI hits so don't bother with it. Not tried the likes of the kayfun and it's clones yet but they sound like they could be good too. I've spotted the AGI for £15 on Grey Haze E Cig Store, i think it looks like the decent rebuildable tank i have been after. Is it possible to use my silica wick in my builds because this whole stainless steel mesh has got me quite intimidated to be honest. I'm not intending to use it as a dripper but i love the look of it & i'm taking your good advice on it & will be making an order later on tonight

right now u have accepted the safety aspect i will answer anything that you want to know about the subject but i didnt wantpeople wrongly blowing there face off through misinformation and getting e-cigs banned as this is what we are all on this forum for to help each other out and i know this more than most as i have only been a member for 2 weeks and i have had members bending over backwards to help me and i have total respect for all members on this forum and that is you included So if my device has regulated power at 3.7 volts what ohmage am i safe at basically?...likewise about the whole respect thing, i see us users as a community & was raised to be respectful to others which seems a rarity in people of my age haha!

Haha that makes good sense yeah i've got a pt3 refuse to even use the thing after buying a pack of replacement coils of which only 1 actually even functioned! It's been nothing but trouble from day one! I don't like those kayfun things i've not used one but once again another overpriced bit of vapegear :/

All I would say is I got this thing within a couple of months of getting into vaping and I don't regret it one bit, people often say newbies should stick to other atties but I say no, go for it and learn. There's TONS of youtube vids on how to set them up and when you get it right the vape is just gorgeous. Rip trippers, todds reviews etc, loads of good vids. Here's some of my antics with it lol allaboute-cigarettes.proboards.com/thread/35842/coily-goodness-adventures?page=2&scrollTo=630396I build my coil then hook up to my svd and check the ohms first, if they're good then I'll carry on and fire it to check for things like hot spots etc and go from there. Wire, mesh, silica wick, there's plenty of good companies sell it all cheap online but yeh, just check out some vids and ignore it when any of them say not for beginners. I actually saw that thread just by chance whilst browsing through here a few minutes back haha! I never check usernames though on posts what's it like in terms of leaks and what have you?

i dont want this to get into a slanging match as well but has you have said your dad is an electrician he works with AC electricity if you dont know what AC is ask your dad i am a electronics engineer diagnostics and repair i work mainly with DC current and AC current and i can assure you that DC can be a killer and if you think there is a lot of scaremongring about this subject i feel sorry for you as i have seen electronic circuits that have blown up due to battery failure caused by low ohms as it causes the battery to discharge to fast and create a lot of heat i am very sorry if this sounds insensitive but if that is your dads opinion about ohms i think he needs a refresher course to stop this turning into a slanging match i will not be replying to this post i also teached in my local university so i know what i am talking about I've removed that aspect of the post from the thread now, he made a mistake like we all do so let's just move on from the subject. It wouldn't turn into a slanging match as i'm not the type to have a pop at someone over a forum haha

Now going on the thread title yes, they are most definitEly worth it. I got myself a UD AGI that can be used with a tank or as a dripper, it's fantastic! The taste and quality of vape from it is soooo much better than the likes of my protank 2 etc. They do vary in price but then they do also vary in materials and quality. Some raw materials are a lot pricier than others. Now for the battery part, they can and do explode on people, that's why it's all over the net. I appreciate your dad is your dad and maybe even your hero but like everyone else in the universe he to can be wrong sometimes lol Sweet I've seen those on a couple of sites & really am tempted by it but I've only just started rebuiling drippers & the gennys seem a little intimidating to me haha Don't ud make the IGO attys? Yeah I see now that he was wrong but i'm glad this forum is friendlier than another that won't be named as I would probably have an uppity admin who would have been like the vaping community's answer to Jeremy Kyle throwing a wobbly

I am a JIB electrical technician and a vaper and I am afraid your dad is wrong, there is a very real risk so ronaldo was correct in pointing out the dangers. It wasn't until your second post that you mention that you were using a regulated device which does indeed reduce some of the dangers. No one is having a go at you but if a new member reads your post and tries it with a mechanical mod then there is a real danger of something exploding. I feel like a bit of a berk now i'm sorry then folks, I'll order myself a cheap multimeter then or ohm meter to be safer with the whole situations. I appreciate your concerns & I apologise for passing on my misinformation

sorry but no multimeter no ohm s meter no battery safety no info not fromwithot from any other member i think you should value your face and your eyesight more than this low ohms could take your face off or blind you we have to try to protect our members if we dont want the government banning e-cigs...........get yourself a meter and make this a safe enjoyable hobby The device that I use has a short circuit detection feature built in & i use the stock protected battery that came with the device itself (my e cig body & battery are a proper brand with reputable history) the wire length is too long to be sub ohm which is apparantly the danger) I'd like to say again my father is an electrician who has been one all of his working life & he's already sat me down & told me that the only danger is the coil not working & there is a whole load of scaremongering going on with regards to this whole safety crap. I don't want this to come across as rude to you or anything, that's not the case at all matey

Got myself a TW DDA which is pretty much just a rebranded Octopus Dripper, it's cheap simple & is a great bit of kit to say its currently on sale for about three quid. Good build quality & airflow I love it & am tempted to get the mini version too. Is it me or are these drippers put on a pedestal get made out to be a specialist job when if I can do it (using 32 awg kanthal & silica wick in 2mm) any bugger can haha fair enough it does take a few attempts to figure out how to do it. I use about 4 coils which is about 1.5-1.8 ohms roughly I think, could be wrong but I'm aware that the ohms is made of wire length and gauge but i'm no cloud chaser so I'm looking for above 1.5. I ddon't check the ohms but have a multimeter on the way But can anyone give tips on how to make my coils last longer my wicks are fried after a day and I don't even wrap them that tight they just gently sit on the wick

I went on Site and can't find hangsen ry4 at all, can't find any hangsen eliquids, you sure it was hangsen and not just their own version? If you look down the left side at the selections theres HS 100ml, HS 30ml etc, i was unsure myself & e mailed them, the reply ssid that all the juices stocked are by hangsen

I have tired about 8 different RY4's and every time I always get more caramel taste than tobacco. Its not a bad thing I was prefer the sweeter taste ry4! Fair play mate, have you got any recommendations?

Just get yourself a few of those cig alikes, I know they're not brilliant mate but it's better to give a few disposables a blast than riddle your lungs with chemicals & tar, or pop down the markets & grab an ego battery with a few clearos. You'll always have a back up then I guess All the best mate stay strong
