I didn't think to look at the Mint, tbh I should have. I went on old memories of a tabacconist weighing with copper coins. He showed my dad 16 2pences weighed against a 4oz weight. It balanced - both ways. Blow me, if it wasn't a fiddle, to my dad's advantage.

Is that the updated spec? Sometime (awhile ago, can't quote the date) they changed the coinage and it got heavier - as well as magnetic. That's why I specified non-magnetic, there's a difference. In the magnetic coppers 8pence = 28.48g. Non-magnetic 8pence = 28.1g (looking at that page it seems to disagree, but it used to work). Go for the magnetic 8p = 28.48g tomj777, I seem to be behind the times

I just weighed my 10 from 3 different suppliers and the varied between 45.17 g and 45.47 g, to check your scales tomj777 weigh 14p in coppers it should be 49.84 g (my scale read this as 49.64 g). 8pence (non-magnetic coppers) should weigh about an ounce (~28 g) AWTs here average 44.2 g

As the AWTs are supposed to weigh ~44g then I'm gonna say they're genuine and your scales have an error tomj777. Edited my first reply to reflect this.

The white label is a common thing for vendors do, as the spec isn't actually printed on the wrap. Weight isn't something you can go on 100%, the specs say 45.0g Average. The AWTs are supposed to be ~44g too, showing a possible error in the scales. Even if it's a 20Amp rewrap you'll be able to use to 50Watts whatever coil you use. The wrap looks good, the crimp at the top looks good too. If the base (negative) is raised rather than completely flat then it certainly looks good. Your mod will tell you about the IR anyway. If the mod rejects with 'weak battery' rather quickly after a full charge then it's a fake or a tired recycled cell. I'd say genuine - but take it easy until you confirm that fact Bear in mind I'm only going on the weight and the photos.

If they're the same screws that Smok use for the M50/M65 (it looks like they are) then all the Smok users should have 4 spares. If I can find mine I'd gladly send you a couple DiscoDes

Ketones are a constituent part in the smell and flavour of Rasberries and similar fruits.
For use with foodstuffs (apart from the nicotine that's exactly what juice is) which contain aromatic hydrocarbons and ketones, Viton is better suited and safer. If there is any leeching you'll probably never see it - it's chemical.
It's up to you what material you use, and I'm not trying to lay down any law. If I can't find silicone I'd rather use, and recommend, Viton o-rings. There are other materials available that are even better, but cost more and I don't see the sense in paying the premium.Ignore. Seems the FDA have a different idea so that's what everyone is going to believe!! I'll still not use viton though

Been too busy for it Postmodern Smoking. When the PC was nicked I lost access so couldn't maintain the server. Police have recovered it but it's in evidence. They kindly let me recover the ssh keys and here we are. Just have to sort the advertising and I'm a host again

Don't whinge, this won't work properly til it's finished
It's common to get a warning, especially if you've never downloaded a playlist like this before. I don't pass viruses or malware to anyone - I have a reputation to maintain For those who can't get the above links to work there's an online player here. Plus there's an alternative one in my siggy ETA: music is live.
