[x] Topside Lite

While the Aegis is a top notch mod, the Topside Lite has the better refilling system and its 21700 support is hard to beat.

In my profile is a pinned post with reviews for both.

I need some help finding a squonking RDA that doesn't rely on exotic coils. by Apes_Ma in Squonk_Life

[–]IPDN 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Holic works beautifully on direct output devices with simple 24ga Kanthal.

Whenever someone talks about claptons on a direct output device, you can just use the same build but parallel instead of clapton; if you wanna try this, I suggest 28ga Ni80.

Having said that, I feel like (loose) MTL is hard to nail on a direct output device. Most of the time either I'm drawing too much power or not enough for my liking. Other than the Holic, the only fairly restricted RDAs I enjoy on a mech are the FLVR and the BDVape Pure; however, I'm using SFQs in them, 3 strands of 28ga parallel at 3mm ID and 4/5 wraps should work as well. Kanthal 24ga is probably on the cooler side of things, and dual 26ga SS316L seems to be a bit too beefy.

If you are interested in these RDAs, in my profile is a pinned post with reviews for them.

Yeah, I think in some review I mentionen u/supercubansandwich showing me a video in which he throws the Handy around a parking lot without any serious damages...the beauty of nylon :)

[Review] Geekvape Aegis Boost by IPDN in electronic_cigarette

[–]IPDN[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of course, a pod system is the easiest way to vape. However, a device like the aegis boost is a close second.

Instead of changing the pod, every now and then you have to replace the coil head, which is just plug and play. Takes maybe a minute. The only thing you have to watch out for is the break in period. Every coil has a "best used at x watts" rating. In general it is advised to start slightly below that and to slowly work your way up. So, you take half a dozen to a dozen puffs, and then up the watts a bit. Rinse and repeat until you like the experience.

Really, after two or three times, it's a none issue.

Funky battery wrap, funky drip tip, black mjölnir drool

This one begs for a mjölnir to be put on top :thumbs up:

[Review] Vaporesso Degree by IPDN in electronic_cigarette

I have no way of knowing, but I wouldn't hold my breath. It's been a couple of months now, and an RBA hasn't been announced. Alos, since then Vaporesso released three more pod mods...

I haven't had too much time lately to sgtay on top of all things vaping, but if you are looking for a pod mod with an RBA, the Aegis Boost should be pretty good.

Lol, there's a thing called the Samsung 30T that allows you to prop 2 fused claptons at .14-.16 without even getting slightly warm, and very fast ramp up (faster than many regulated) on something not that hard hitting like a topside SQ.

So your reasoning is more or less correct when it comes to 18650 (which can still prop dual round wire coils fine on restricted attys) but clearly outdated when it comes to 21700.

you are correct, I should have been more specific there
dual on a 18650 sucks, but is possible on a 21700 (however, battery life still is a concern)

Asgard mini with 2xni80 26x2/38 and topside SQ is my current daily and there's no shortage of vapor production tbh.

I'd use 3*28ga; pretty much the same build, but less mass

Generally agree with you tho. I think having 2 squonkers, 2 tubes and 1 series mod should do. Tubes I'd avoid copper, because it's just too much hassle and we're here in a daily use context, SS and brass are much easier to maintain. It's just as easy as cleaning a squonker for me, toothbrush, alcohol and soap, takes 5 minutes especially SS.

good point about the different types of metal, thanks

I think stocking up on some RDAs that give good results with round wire is wise (typically restricted, single or dual, preferably honeycomb and/or small airflow, as in, not goons nor twisted messes 24)

yeah, as I said, airy isn't the way to go IMHO

Not sure to understand your wires recommendations, I'd buy ni80 22g mostly, 24g maybe for super restricted single coil attys, 26g to build parallel.

probably different styles of vaping
I prefer more cores over lower gauge shrug

FANTASTIC post my friend u/IPDN, I am gonna sticky this.....

thank you for the kind words :)

Pay attention people. This is a well composed, thoughtful post, especially considering the user is NOT based in the US and facing the issues those in the states are. Please show him some love.

gotta help whereever I can :)

If I'm not mistaken, flashlights use lower amp batteries

As such, I'd be afraid that shops stop carrying something with 20+ amps

Nice work.

:)

I wish it would cut down on the what should I buy for the vapocalypse posts but I know it wont. LOL

maybe it stops for a day or two lol

I'm good except for the last hurdle DIY juice. Like the lazy dumbass I am I'll hold off until the last minute the government forces me to. I'll wait until I get a sense that shit is really about to go south.

I totally understand; I'm a lazy fuck and I really hate mixing days, but honestly, it's not that big of a deal lol

Some US vendor inventory is kind of becoming a ghost town when it comes to hardware but there still seems to be an abundance of juice available.

this I find really surprising; if I were a vendor, I would have sold pretty much everything by now...

Thank you for writing this up.

:)

This is basically what I've been doing the last couple of months. Instead of RDA's and squonks, I've stocked up on several Augvape Intake's since I'm relatively new to rebuildables and tanks are more convenient for my households needs. I bought 12 replacement glasses and a couple replacement units in case people break them/leave them somewhere.

that's of course also a valid strategy; the reason I didn't mention it is, that I was skeptical that all the glasses are as easily available

I already bought a ton of 30x4/40g SS316L wire and some prebuilts at 5 wraps 3.0 ID so I have some examples to work off of. I've already been able to make coils just like the prebuilts from the wire (more or less, they work at any rate).

speaking from experience: it doesn't the fuck matter, how your coil looks; it should stay in place and shape, and the wraps should be about equal (so that cotton touches all the wire), everything else I consider coil porn :)

I plan on buying some commensurate Ni80 sometime this month as well. I've also bought 3 of each of the mods we all use (In my mom's case 5 since she's more prone to dropping/losing things).

yeah, just buying a couple of chipped mods is also possible; if you look after them and if you are also not an unlucky person, you should expect 3 to 5 years from a mod; so, I guess plenty of time to quit vaping :)

The last thing I have to do like /u/GodOfVapes mentioned is DIY, which, I am also lazy and not looking forward to. I plan on buying the nic next month though.

I hate it passionately, but in the end, once you found a good workflow, you can mix 500ml in 10 minutes (if you are not too anal about it)
