Its easy. Just use a screw driver to line it up. I gonna try 4mm build once I could find the rod or screwdriver for it.
UD SS 316L 26g. Hyper Vape selling it at RM20 for 30 feet.

Thats really cheap! I ordered mine from fast tech and it cost about Rm17, Would definitely get from them in the future, most importantly without the waits. blush.gif

By the way, I'm currently on stock coil and the ohms like about 0.88. I'm vaping at 26w and it shows 4.78v. What is the differences as comparing those with lower ohms?
Lower resistance = less voltage needed for the same taste/vape?

I tried bumping up my temperature around 35w even 50w but I cant even take a full vape as the taste like burning the cotton so badly. Why do people vape at high wattage?

Sorry for the questions. hmm.gif hmm.gif

How long before the cotton smell will run off? It just taste awful! I started to get boring with the horny mango and looking forward to get new juice. Which do you guys prefer?

Is apple crumble and crest by madhouz great?

both are great.

if u are looking into something sweet u can try fcking flava pineapple or aj mango blackcurrant

Apple crumble and crest is something sweet too? Any other recommendations that are not sweet, mate?

Not sure what went wrong this time. Did all the same steps like yesterday for washing, rewick and dry burn. Only thing different this time is the cotton used is the one included by smok as compare to the general cotton ball from guardian. Anyone taste something funny after rewick before?

Andy, you using cotton ball from Guardian? If its not organic cotton then pesticides have been used on it. And if its super white then its been bleached.
Try to buy organic Muji cotton or something like that.

Yea, I believe those are bleached but the one came with my tfv4 are super white too. Saw those organic cotton will have atleast some black spot on it right? The funny thing is, I have no funny smell with the guardian cotton. blush.gif Ever encounter something like this before mate?

Feels like throwing the whole thing out. blush.gif Jokes aside, where can we get the muji cotton from?


Just sharing. smile.gif

I watched the video, and can only agree with the reviewer on two aspects: yes cotton balls are very fiddly to work with, and there is indeed some minimal flavor creep (but that goes away after 2 or 3 tokes).

Seeing how he handled (fumbled with) the stuff, I dare say he was mainly a cotton pad user. I started out with boiling cotton balls and even tried dental cotton before which I begged from my dentist. Guess I should state that I use cotton pads most times in tank attys for the convenience and speed, and I have no vested interest in any brand of cotton.

While flavor is very subjective, I find that any RDA I have produces better flavor with Kendo when compared with Muji or Koh Gen Do pads, and is slower to gunk up as well. Dripping DIY ejuice even after a week, the cotton is still in good shape. I don't know how Kendo will fare with local juices, but I suspect that the over-sweetened gloop will gunk up any wick pretty fast.

I still prefer to write using a very old Parker fountain pen...the kind where one has to dip the nib into a bottle of ink and refill by pumping the bladder. Call me an antiquated old fart, and I may agree with you. But that ink-filling ritual together with the feel of the nib's friction against the paper is more satisfying to me than the convenience and smooth glide of any roller-ball gel ink pen.

What has my Parker pen got to do with vaping? Well, the ritual of patiently fashioning that ball of cotton into a good wick (and using a messy inconvenient fountain pen) harkens me back to a time when the world moved at a slower pace; a world where life was simpler. I find it very soothing, yea mayhaps even therapeutic to sit down and slowly work with a ball of cotton or two. Sometimes half the fun of any journey is getting there, and my journey to arrive at a satisfying vape is most enjoyable indeed  smile.gif

Thank you for sharing your experience. I get how you feel about it, just like when you brush clean your leather shoes, put on leather balm and wipe off excess then slowly build up your wax to get that mirror finish. The end result is definitely a enjoyable and rewarding one.

LOL! Am glad to see you don't mind overhangs too! My TVF4 with 2 coil rba is en route and soon will be sitting atop the vtc mini. How do u find that tank's performance?

No idea how Madhouz Crest's aroma is like, but u have good taste in mods and tanks...so it MUST be good  biggrin.gif

I have no fancy packaging, but my juices smell pretty aromatic right now...am letting this batch of trial concoctions breathe a bit. The one in the amber glass bottle is my new fav...it has a light touch from 8 flavors including 3 tobaccos and 2 types of coffee...smells like the atmosphere of a tobacconist's shop!  smile.gif

Thanks for your compliment, Andy. To be honest I only read the reviews beforehand and hope for the best. Horny mango would be on my poor list as compare to this Crest and Apple crumble. The aroma from both of these liquid are amazing, they linger around the bottle even when the cap is seal tight. You would definitely fall in love if you able to smell one of these. biggrin.gif

For the tank wise, there's leaking issues when I just got them. Did some google around and found a solution that it solves it off completely. Its my first mod and tank so I'm not sure how does it compare with other RTA out there, using the single coil rba at 0.85ohm since day 1 and so far so good. Waiting the arrival of the stainless steel wire so I can rebuild a coil and play out with different set-ups. I'm also waiting for Vain to sell me his muji cotton. Hopefully he would sell it to me. laugh.gif


When your dual coil rba arrive, please do share your experience comparing with single coil head and would you brew extra juice for us to try? Who know you might venture into this business soon. rolleyes.gif

how much is the discount?  shocking.gif

20% off with no minimum amount. Just tried on Alexng shopee and it works. wink.gif How you get the code bro?

At first the Apple crumble taste very well when I mix with my existing horny mango in the tank but after cleaning everything and fill with only apple crumble, I seems couldn't take it even for a short draw. The sweetness is so intense, it just make me feel like drinking concentrated caramel syrup. Choke on every short draw. doh.gif

Anyone having the same experience with apple crumble? or it's just me over-saturating the coils?

QUOTE(andyng38 @ Nov 3 2015, 10:13 PM)
Aaah u r indeed a flavor connoisseur! At this rate, I'm gonna have to buy some commercial juices and try to clone their feel and taste if I can  biggrin.gif I think you'll appreciate the "clean" taste of Ti coils...at the right wattage for a particular juice, they really allow the more subtle nuances of flavor to be revealed. ...but please do read up on safely using such a metal first.

Right now I'm vaping on a black cherry/vanilla/cream/tobaccos mix, using 1 dripper with nichrome, and another with Ti. The Ti coils win hands down when it comes to putting across the flavors. Earlier on I had let a few vaping kaki try the same juice on the same coil setups, and they could detect crisper and more pronounced flavor notes from the Ti coils. Only one guy failed to detect the difference...and he's the only one of us who's still smoking.  I haven't played with SS yet...will definitely have to compare it with Ti. Time to do the fasttech fandango again for a coil of SS I guess

Hmmm..so the TFV4 leaks a bit eh? I hope it's just a case of wicking problem. Tell u what...when I get mine, I'll be masochistic and wick it with material from a cotton ball not a nice neatly cut sheet, and see what happens. I'll let u know how the dual rba performs...on Ti! I don't feel like using kanthal anymore..damn I'm getting spoiled. If ppl tell u that they quit cigs and vape instead to save money, DON'T BELIEVE THEM!    I've been spending way too much for too long on unnecessary shiny new toys, flavors, additives and ancillary thingamabobs.

I don't really intend to get into the ejuice biz..but who knows eh? For now I'm just contented mixing the stuff for my own consumption. But if our paths should ever cross, I'd be happy to pass u a bottle of my current fav effort  smile.gif
Woohooo! Macro coils! I want I want I want!

Put everything aside, where do you resides now, buddy? rolleyes.gif rolleyes.gif

Saw a solution on youtube for the leaking issues. He did it by installing the chimney to the top cap first while the rba head goes to the base then only sandwich everything together. It solves the leak for me. Maybe you can try the conventional way and this one if it leaks. Gonna agree with you on the spending part. Less than a week or two and I already bought another 2 bottle of juice and order those wire jig stuff. Saving is a no-no here.

By any chance, any of you guys know whether if those tiny little screws on the rba head that screws down the wire can purchase in local hardware store? One of my screws are pretty loose, I need a new tight shiny one. rolleyes.gif

SG post > China > China > China > China > China > See ur face got problem or not > China again maybe > SG > Malaysia

But how do you choose china post? I dont reckon there's a option for you to choose or there is? Dang.
