    Charging a battery inside a mod

    I know charging dual-battery mods isn't recommended unless they're DNA, but I'm looking at my Fuchai squonker now (single-battery regulated mod).. is there any reason I can't charge the battery within the mod using a charge cable? My chargers are full as hell, so it'd be pretty convenient.

    GBox leaking issue

    Well, not so much leaking as messy a.f. I've got the GBox 200W, and really like it. But I've noticed that the back of the bottle gets smeared with juice after a while. You especially notice it when you turn/rotate the bottle a bit within the squonker and notice that it's full of juice...

    Dropped batteries

    So my Gbox did that thing that Gboxes do, where it unloaded my batteries like Scarface dropping his mags when I opened the bay door and wasn't paying enough attention. About a 1.5m drop onto ceramic... ouch. It bounced and everything. #drama. Anyway, no scuffed wraps, no bulges, no dents. I'm...

    Help me build a recipe: Tobaccos

    In the first episode of my "help me build" series: I have a question for all experienced DIY'ers on the forum, to get your creative juices flowing. Rule #1 is the death of us all, and with that in mind I want to see if the "help me build" threads would be viable. It allows DIY'ers to help each...

    Bass fishing

    Any avid bass fishermen/women out there? Man, this last season was terrible in the Cape. All the usual bass fishing spots were either completely dry (as in literally no water), or pressured. The spawn was extremely late too... I actually did not catch a single bass this season, and had to...

    Wayne's Triple C's

    Not too sure about this one. Don't know if you've tried it before, @RichJB ? It's cakey and sortof caramelish but it sure doesn't layer well with my testing. Tried it at 2, 3 and 4 weeks. Feels like a bit of a confused mix. The bitter aftertaste actually has me puzzled.

    Zamplebox or equivalent

    I spoke to Zamplebox today and while they do ship to South Africa, there are 2 main problems: 1) shipping is $15, and 2) the parcel is handled by SAPO once it reaches SA. That's rather brutal. Are there any of you who are bringing in Zampleboxes monthly, and if so would a monthly group-buy be a...

    Flavour RDA's with deep juice wells

    So I need some input from you guys. What RDA would you recommend based on these criteria: - 22mm or 25mm, doesn't matter - preferably 24/25mm though - Flavour much more important than clouds - Single or dual-coil, again doesn't really matter - Side or top airflow.. no bottom airflow though. -...

    Rediscovering my Sapor V2

    I first bought my Sapor V2 about 10 months ago or so (if I remember correctly). Used it as my first RDA before getting a Peerless.. then an Icon, then a Hadaly.. etc etc. For the most part I just used RDA's for testing my DIY mixes, and tanks were my daily drivers. Fast-forward a few months...

    Wanted: TrackIR 5

    If anyone knows of, or has, a TrackIR 5 for sale - please do let me know. Incredibly hard to find stock in SA of a new one, so trying second-hand at this point.

    Pairings for INW Creme Brulee

    Apart from the excellent Plum Brulee, does anyone have any pairings for Creme Brulee? It seems to be a pretty versatile concentrate, but I'm curious what's tried&tested out there.

    Resistance doubled on a fused clapton

    Weird thing happened tonight. I built a 4/5 wrap fused clapton using a roll of Geekvape fused clapton wire (3x30ga wrapped in 38ga, all nichrome). Installed it in the Engine Nano, and it read 0.25 ohm. That's before I started adjusting it. After adjusting, pulsing, strumming, etc - it read...

    Best coil-head tank for flavour

    What is the best commercial tank (using coilheads) for flavour these days? Not looking for high-wattage cloud-chuckers, but rather something that focuses on flavour. I have an iJust S currently, and something like that would be perfect - the iJust is just a little outdated in the flavour...

    Juices and memories

    It's funny how certain juices can bring back a flood of memories - sometimes by the strangest means of association. I have personally experienced two cases quite recently: The first was when I made up a Peach Yogurt. The first attempt was a bit of a mess, as it was way more peach than yogurt...

    FA Guava

    What the HELL is this? Guys?! It's like someone put a very, very old bottle of Chanel No 5 into a pot of VG and boiled it with air freshener. Please tell me it's not just me, cos I swear I'll need therapy if that's the case. Yass this shit is awful.

    Koolada mellows out Menthol

    Interesting observation. Well, for me, anyway. I had some juices at 0.4% menthol. For my taste preference, that's pretty strong damn menthol right there. On a whim, I decided to use my other menthol "base" which is 0.5% menthol + 0.5% koolada. MUCH more mellow. So the menthol went up, but...

    Working on a new yogurt base

    So I love Wayne's yogurt base, but wanted something that adds a little more vanilla and a little less tartness. Tested around, and came up with the following mix: FA Cream Fresh: 2% CAP VBIC: 2% CAP Creamy Yogurt: 1% FA Vienna Cream: 1.5% FA Meringue: 0.5% FA Caramel: 0.5% As you can see, it...

    Suggestion for stock: label printer

    Hi @Richio ! Rather random suggestion, but have you ever considered stocking a (cheap, Chinese, whatever) label printer and label spools? Kinda like the Brother P-Touch ones. Something a lot of the DIY'ers like to have in their arsenal :D

    High ohms on an RTA

    Just curious.. I see everyone usually sticks to 0.5-0.6 ohm max on RTA's these days. What would be the drawback of an 0.9 ohm fused clapton coil in an (single-coil) RTA? On a regulated device, that is. Should be just fine, right?
