I can't agree, but if it is what you really want then Delta9 offers the (nearly) same eGo-W (it fits the Omicron/Persei 601 threading): http://www.delta9vapes.com/products.php?product=Ego%2dW-for-3.7 But I should add that I stopped a friend from buying one a couple weeks ago (many better...

Re-filling is normal operating procedure for many of us and "re-use"ing the cartridge is quite common. The lessons you will need to learn are (my recommendations): Learn to tell when is the cartridge empty (*USE A SCALE*)? Become familiar with when is the cartridge clogged? Any most...

Normally I'd think cell phones, texting or even (Heaven forbid) Twitter aren't good excuses, BUT I'd like to say the same at the moment - I'll start ASAP :) -NDA

5.9 Ohms show a couple things: My first guess was wrong and it is likely both your heaters are intact. I'd stick with the second one now - The wick is shot. Also 5.9, I've not seen over 5.2 (carts seem to be +/- .2 Ohms, but the same in each box/batch), so either the meter's zero point was off...

Absolutely! And now the OP (who seems to be a new user) gets to learn one or more methods of "reclaiming" the contents :) (This thread, the Omicron thread and Vaporpedia all have lots of good information) -NDA

If the ouside gets "really hot" but you only get wisps, you may well have reached the state where the furnace hearer is shot, but the bulk heater still warms the load. If it gets "really hot", I doubt you have a priming problem - sounds like the wick is shot/clogged. The best test for if I'm...

It is difficult to beat the cost advantage of a toothpick, but somehow I feel more secure using TV's cute (but expensive) Teflon tipped tool. At least I can tell myself that I know it is intended not to scratch or chip the ceramic (I clean too many other similar things with paperclips with one...

More specifically, it appears to be a Young-June Lavatube knock-off. Variously claimed to have a 3.2 or 4 Amp output limit (instead of the KR's 2.5) and it has a function to measure atty/cart resistance. However, if it is one of these, they were the ones many retailers pulled because they would...

You are entirely correct about 1VA == 1W for DC without a reactive load. I was concerned some people might be familiar enough with UPSs (computer or otherwise) to get confused (and yea, my many 1500VA 120v A/C units can only supply about 1100W - different manufacturers sometimes play games with...

This has been beaten to death, but one large factor seems to always be ignored. In my opinion (maybe Tim has real numbers :) ) it isn't so much that the LV or SV versions use more or less power as much as the fact that a single "large" cell will usually be more efficient (in terms of storing...

I believe it does need a heat sink running above 3Amps - I'd have to check the PDF. But, IIRC, it uses a cheap TO-220 sink, so as small or as large as you like and just for pennies. I've seen the 6A versions used (by hobbyists, not in commercial gear) for >3A 9v in automobile apps (and your...

I think that the scarcity of the already announced SV PAs shows that not much is easily available in power supplies that can deliver the current needed. So far TV seems to be seeking a one-piece COTS solution. Unfortunately not much is available in high current supplies at either 4v (or 4,2v) or...

Yea, the ecig auto-off. Definitely a PITA until you get used to it. The Twist's timeout is about 10 seconds (supposed to be 10, but I just measured 10.7). I guess it just has to become second nature - I click the button about every 6 or 7 seconds without thinking (anymore) - for me that's...

For my DARTs, with the two Twists I have, anything from 4v to 4.8v delivers the same 4 volts to the DART. Do not try the same with a 2.4 Ohm Omicron cart - I've seen the "smoke puff of death" from the bottom of the cart when trying 4.8v for too long (maybe 10 seconds? don't really know) - Now...

For many decades someone had to look at those pictures we (USA) dropped from satellites into the ocean. Some of us were good guessers (is that a new tank? Do those wings look different? What is inside that building?) and most of us had other technical skills as well - I'm pretty sure that THIS...

I'm pretty sure the mouthpiece is white because it is made from PFTE instead of Delrin (It also looks like "710" size, if you want to look at ecig sites for a replacement). We can also see the 601->601/skirted eGo-style adapter (same as used for D9's eGo-W) at the base (I had asked about it...

Off topic, but... Jam, Since you make your own concentrates, I'm curious what you use for tincture. I make an Everclear tincture out of hash, which I assay (I make the "raw" stuff just over 10% THC) and then dilute to 5% with PG - close to Sativex or Gold Mist (but I use mint, not cinnamon...

"smart" just means I learn quickly. "knowledgeable" means I've learn a lot about many things. Unfortunately, with more "wisdom", I'd know when to keep quite more often :) -NDA P.S. Those colored Persei's are quite pretty. I wouldn't carry one in public, but I can already imagine them as...

When I first got a Twist, just to play with, I used with an adapter for Omi carts. It worked very well, but the dial would sometime turn in my pants pocket, which seemed "dangerous" to me (it can drive a 2.4 Omi to a far too hot temp). I put it on the shelf and ignored it for a while, until...

Kevin, Glass often doesn't work the way you want it to. For common US boro, a 1200 Hammer is heating at about 664C, which is well above the thermal stress point (which "just" has to be figured in). G is correct that there are many reasons, but for a simple one, anything as thick as you ask for...
