Spot On chykensa you can definitely get a bigger bang for your buck  more suitable starter kit, that wont go bang, from the advice off of members here. I think most find the forums after they use their first kit and think 'this could work'...I didnt even know there were forums for vapers before I gave it a go, and wondered if their was anything that worked better than the ego and ce5. Wasnt long before I was saved by good advice though. I also wonder about the wisdom of recommending sub ohm and TC to new starters who ask for advice on what kit to start with. When reading these suggestions I can't help thinking its a step too far for a new starter......make it a bit simpler like for example mini nautilus and istick 30 rather than sub ohm mini and TC mod which are great for the experienced vaper but I question the wisdom of suggesting this to a newbie. Not a truer word is spoken^^^^^^^^^^^^ Although the subtanks have premade coils and the Istick now comes in a TC version, it's still more to get your head around than is necessary and over-complicates things for the beginner. Keep it simple. |

You cant always tell from the pic the quality of finish but you can get an idea as to whether the rest was a 'rushed job'.
Take a look at the reviews, if it has any and see what keeps being brought up...Yours wont be the only one that is like this.

I managed to find a couple in the end. The velocity and goblin both come in white so have get those 2. Just as well as my evic mini is in the post and finally the D2 was sent as well. Cant wait to try out  |

I dont even use the small air-holes on the velocity Ali Bongo the airflow comes from the 2 large slot type holes. You screw down the top to close and unscrew to open the flow more |

Thanks for the suggestions. blakey tim Have the black one so another in white sounds like a good choice, didnt see it in white when I got the black, I should take a closer look. kreed I saw a whole bunch of these just in somewhere, They are tempting me. For the tank atty Ill probably go with a sub tank type that has an RBA deck. Dont know which yet.  |

So thicker wire provides more resistance and will need more wraps. As such you can get more vapour and flavour in general? So coil design plays a large role then as well as wrap amount and wrap size? Thicker wire produces less resistance so more power is needed to heat the wire to the same temp as thinner wire. The thicker wire will give you more surface contact with the wick so more juice is vaporized, so bigger clouds and flavor. There are many other factors like airflow and coil geometry that effect vapor production and flavor as well. |

Finally got the second base set up so it wouldn't leak when left upright. Dont know why it would cause the problem, but after i tightened the center screw underneath a 1/4 turn it stopped behaving like a siphon and the leak has stopped.

Malwarebytes does not like that link above, trying to work out if its the site or a redirect that is flagging red.

Strange question I know, but I want to choose an atty that is finished in white. Can have some stainless showing or similar but predominately white. Want an RBA but will buy RDA as well. Want to build on it and use sub-ohm. Would appreciate any links if you have seen some lately. I've not seen many but something like a Goblin would be spot on for a tank atty.  |
