So far leaking shouldn't be an issue eh? I think juice flow open half can d lol, open full I think will finish in no time

ya still never had leak like i experienced with uwell crown which you practically can see droplets inside the airholes sweat.gif on this tank sometime i can feel some liquid/wet outside the tank, but i guess that because of the vapor that came from the airholes when i blow them out before vaping, and by times it accumulates a bit..

so far using this for few days, i keep the holes closed most of times.. if to ensure my wick don't dry, i just open the holes for few seconds and close it back.. the juice vent have a bit space which can hold a few drop of liquid imo, thats enough

but the popping a bit bugs me though, give me hard throat hits when it pops when i drag.. maybe i shouldn't use calpton

edit: i constantly feels wet outside of the glass tank, makes me wonder does the juice sips from the bottom of the glass? because the glass practically just sit on top of the base, there is no "trench" for the glass to sit on

Regarding the popping sound - Try using more cotton. Actually popping sound is quite normal isn't it?
As for your "wet outside of the glass tank", isn't there an o-ring under the glass? Tighten everything.
*
Yup, there is o ring but the trench is very shallow, so the glass seems like just sitting on flat surface only.. The o ring is very thin tho. Change with soare o ring provided, seems like the issues is minimize now.. I think need to find thicker o ring

Now u know why Richard Ng called it an intermediate level tank. Hold the glass and topcap tighter when unscrewing. You'll get a feel for it soon enough.

Your "super itchy throat" could be due to several things: the juice itself irritates you till yr throat gets used to it, semi-dry hits because of poor wicking, or you have a mild allergy to some ingredient in the juice. Want faster ramp-up times, use nichrome instead of kanthal.

Nichrome contains nickel? Must use TC?

Yes it has some nickel as part of the alloy. It's not a TC wire, and is what many vapers used before kanthal became popular.Faster to heat up, and cool down, but it is not as forgiving as kanthal, and has a shorter life span. My coils (with dry burn cleaning) last about of 3 weeks compared to kanthal's 4-5 weeks. But i prefer the faster heating and (IMO) better flavor.

Contain nickel but no need use TC? sweat.gif

I'm kinda interested with snow wolf mini.. But it does not support SS.. Too bad.. I'm interested to use SS instead of Ti, and definitely no for Ni i just want to avoid the risk

after several time recoil on the griffin, i think this is the best it can go for this set up.. the popping liquid is unavoidable.. i have to pulse fire for 2-3 times to let it pops, only start vape when the firing consistant.. mouth full thick vapor, good flavor, throat hit a bit too hard to my preference.. i can take max 5 puffs then i'm done.. definitely can satisfy my cigg crave.. 12mg grandmaster.. i think next purchase i really need to go to 9 or 6mg.. looking forward for zero cigg in 2016 onward.

Don't confuse Ni60/Ni80 with Ni200(which is meant for TC).
What risk?
*
nickel at high temp risk to health right.. well using TC suppose to keep the temperature at desired level, but only if the TC never mess up.. sweat.gif for those using expensive tc mod maybe save, but for cheapo like me, such as if using RX200 if temp goes haywire without our knowledge, die lo.. better off avoid it, for me la..

so Ni60/Ni80 no need temp control but they still contain nickel? sweat.gif

Hahahahaha....... Joyetech/Wismec/Happytetek fanboi budakdegilz is going to say you got a 'lemon' unit!

You can fire it at 600F - its not even hot. Thats UNDERFIRING.
Try firing at 500F in your D2 - see how hot it is.

Totally can't vape when it hits Temp Protect right? Cos it stops firing after a second. Sometimes instantly.
The RX is wrongly calibrated. Its not for our local warm weather. Cool the RX & atty in an aircon room. Then when the mod & atty is really cool, lock in the resistance. - Thats one way to overcome the 'Temp Protect' issues.

The RX chip is utter shite when compared to a Yihi chip. If you set the resistance in the D2 while the mod & atty is still warm, the D2 will just fire hotter. It won't go to 'Temp Protect' and stop firing.
*
RX is using same chip as eVIc VTC Mini, no? its from Joyetech..? but vtc mini quite ok lor, maybe the software shiat.. if that is the case, hope they will revamp the software.. thats why i never use TC on this RX too.. i consider it as a "hulk" only, mighty and lot of energy, but on the muscle only, the brain can't really work.

I had expected such a replyĀ 

You need to find out for yourself what temperatures your mod can actually produce, what temperatures the various alloys melt and vaporize at, and could you actually stand to vape at such temperatures in the first place biggrin.gif

Going along your line of logic, kanthal is also unsafe for it contains aluminium (oh yeah it can bind with your brain cells, dude), stainless steel also contains nickel and is unsafe. And while we're at it, why not throw in the dangers of diacetyl, acrolein and formaldehyde?

Are you a gibbering paranoid mess yet? Well don't be. My point is very simple: go find out for yourself the actual facts of the matters at hand, and you'll be better for it. smile.gif
*
I am also expecting such reply.. Lol

First, it doesn't necessarily to be virtually melt for it to combust and reacts with the chemicals in the atmosphere.. Say, the coils suddenly have hard hotspot till it snaps, can you figure how much is the temperature at the point of hotspot before it snaps? At that moment, some chemical reaction could be happening.. I say, could.. just to add, i also did mention that my another concern is the unreliable TC chips that might not regulate temp correctly.

Aluminium, yes most if not all metal compounds hazardous to health, but the aluminium u said could bind to brain or nerve cells upon direct exposure to the atomic compaund, which in this case is somewhat irrelevant as compared to the potentially carbon monoxide production from nickel due to catalyzed by combustion. Also, aluminium may contain nickel (depends on type) but at negligible percentage as far as carbon monoxide is concern.

And going along with your line of logic as well, if you know your juice contains diacetyl, acrolein and formaldehyde, wouldn't you want to steer to other type of juice that does not or contain minimal amount of that substances? I would. If you wouldn't, then your logic is self explanatory. sweat.gif

Am i a gibbering paranoid mess yet? No, its called "precautions" not paranoid.

My point is simple: i will minimize the hazard risk anyway i could. Its personal choice, anyway laugh.gif

but do you have any proof of it? I think not. Wires don't snap by hotspots alone, inherent, or introduced weaknesses also contribute to it. When a wire snaps, what happens? No more vapor...so what's the problem?

By your logic, No wire is safe to use. I purposely brought up aluminium (in kanthal, which you did not choose mention in conjunction with it), and do you even know what temperature and heating period/conditions is needed in order for nickel to act as a catalyst and create CO? I think not.

And it's obvious you don't know how acrolein and formaldehyde come about, if you think it comes in a bottle of e juiceĀ  biggrin.gif As for diacetyl, do u have proof that vaping causes intake in amounts large enough to cause any harm? I think not.

The very fact that you have to ask about nichrome and TC shows that you really need to know more. It is because of people like you who prefer to listen to scaremongering and sensationalist reporting, and erring too far on the side of caution/paranoia that will cause vaping to fail, and give more ammo to those who have vested interests to see it fail or be banned.

You can indeed claim "personal choice"/play safe and that is your right if you can't be bothered to find out the truth, the proper facts, and actual situation. But usage of such paranoia/ignorance to perpetuate scaremongering is irresponsible.
*
again i need to remind here that i'm a nubissss LOL biggrin.gif

but being a nubiss in vaping doesn't mean i am illiterate

you ask many questions above, i would ask you the same, do you know? no right.. but we all know there are potential risks.. POTENTIAL. and there are different level of risks available as option, i say i would go for the lowest risk, any harm for you? sweat.gif

Dude, i do know how acrolein and formaldehyde come about, simple google can give anyone answer too.. how can you simply judge my knowledge by barely a sentence?

Yes i ask about nichrome and TC because i am unsure, nickel is one of the main compound in nichrome, so why we should not use TC on it

"usage of such paranoia/ignorance to perpetuate scaremongering is irresponsible" but don't you think that you spread opinion that there is no such risk is also irresponsible? and again, not paranoia, can't you digest the word precautions already?

well, lets not drag this further, the point is that any information could be useful to anyone depends on how they perceived it, so this is a forum, can't we freely express opinion? no need to bash me la.. ayam nubisss only, taikor... tongue.gif

to put it simply: isn't it safer for u to quit smoking/vaping altogether instead of convincing yourself on this complicated decisions?  smile.gif

the point of i quit smoking is to steer to a safer alternative, as of now vaping, but steering to the safest path a much as i can biggrin.gif

I never gave the slightest implication that anything I advocated was 100% harm-free. I challenge you to show me where I said anything was risk-free! Even tho this is non-serious kopitiam, I do take care in my choice of words, and you should do the same. I operate on the simple premise of innocent till proven guilty. Unfortunately the ignorant seem to prefer "guilty till proven innocent".

And I did easily judge how u don't know about acrolein and formaldehyde, simply by your inference that it is present in e juices. If you really googled properly, you'd have know what it takes to cause the formation of such chemicals. The facts are out there if you really want to know.

I do know you are new to vaping. And earlier on, I did suggest that you educate yourself more about the things which concerned you, but instead you took the easy route preferring to fall back on the "personal choice" cop-out. If you want to expound on matters which you are not very familiar with, the logical thing to do is to perform due diligence first. And this is not bashing at all, in my book. You did not hear what I said to one holier-than-thou asswipe IRL who tried to tell me that e juice contained TAR and was worse than smoking; now THAT was a proper bashing. I don't like to do that, but when push comes to shove, I do what I have to do simply because vaping matters to me.

Aiyo taikor, your talk like go around the roundabout, like spitting to the sky.. Prior u said this, the later u said like that instead.. I can google or browsing scientific journals to find facts to keep on replying to you, but I won't because it is pointless to show who is more clever here. You also got all you vaping knowledge via the internet and experience, so whats the point.. But i still stand that all my arguments are legit.. You just refuse to accept.. On the side note, when you are good in english and using bombastic words, it doesn't prove anything when its just spurs of word without fact.. Same same lah taikor.. laugh.gif sorry lah no feel feel okeh.. Cheers

And that's what I asked you for...FACTS! You say your arguments are legit, but didn't and couldn't back it up conclusively. There is no reason for anyone to give any credence to your stances. As far as I'm concerned, you're just trying to perpetuate scare-mongering. You want to be paranoid/play safe, fine and good. I accept that easily. Just keep your fears and ignorance to yourself.

I just couldn't believe you can't even get it when i said precautions, you keep on saying paranoid and ignorance. If i am ignorance, i just simply vape without bother to ask.. Arrogant people like u makes a medium like this less welcoming..

I have organized informal seminars on smoking-cessation through vaping before. Heard all kinds of shite from smokers who were "forced" to attend by their peers/loved ones. Only those who were really wanting to quit didn't come up with such screwed-up statements.
Unfortunately our KKM had been taking the extremist stance towards vaping by distorting facts and telling outright lies. They saw that they weren't fooling enough people, and had to eventually resort to the Poisons Act in an attempt to get their own way. All the more reason for vapers to educate themselves. Right now the biggest danger to vapers is our own government. Who knows if pockets had been lined by Big Tobacco.

The situation for vapers in Malaysia is dire enough as it is. Of course we should vape safe, but there's really no need to be self-destructive and throw fuel to the fire from needless scare-mongering. We should not be our own worst enemy.
*
now i could figure why my posts offended you..

sincerely sorry for that, never a slight thought on my head to go against vaping.. i am successfully on zero cigg for almost 2 months now, finally can really depends on vaping for the nic crave, which i'm very glad.. my new year resolution is to totally ditch cigg (this resolution has been repeated almost every year, this time i really wanna make it)..

but just being a newbie, i'm craving for information and looking for healthy discussion about the doubts and issues that i think of.. you and me probably on a different mindset (i would say) when we started replying to each other.. that is quite unfortunate.

cheers
