I used to own a ipv3 li last time but sold already, continue smoking.
If i wanna get back to vaping, any recommendation?
Im a flavor freak, not for clouds.
Budget below rm1k

Get a mod with a DNA chip in it...the smoothness and stability of it is very VERY nice. I've used the ipv3 Li before and am very sure a DNA chip will heighten your vape experience. Bear in mind there is a slightly steeper learning curve and a bit of fiddling with Escribe to get the best out of any DNA device.

If u don't need higher watts, https://shopee.com.my/Finder-75-Think-Vape-...829354.55869325
and a cheaper seller is https://shopee.com.my/Think-Vape-Finder75-P...414965.57597458 (very good value IMO)
But I still think the slightly more expensive Lost Vape Therion DNA75 is sexier brows.gif

U can save some cost (and probably get better flavor) by making your own extracts in VG. My coconut and vanilla extracts are quite successful. Am running low on vanilla...time to make more!

Interesting! Never thought to extract my own flavoring yet, this sounds like fun. How is the yield n quality like?
*
I used 1 pod each of sabah and madagascar vanilla in 250ml VG. Those 2 pods will be reused to make another 250ml with 2 new pods.

It's quite easy to do. Sterilize a good glass jar with airtight lid by boiling in water, drain, dry and put in VG. I sterilize knife and cutting board the same way before I cut open the pods and scrape out the seeds, and dump all into the jar. Screw on the lid, put a label with date on it, and let it sit in a cool dark place. Give it a shake every 2-3 days for the first 2 weeks, then a shake weekly after.

After a month, it can be used. After 2 months the flavor is even better. Usually when we taste a vanilla product, it's just vanillin (synthesized from wood pulp) we taste...that's the most dominant flavor in vanilla.

But if u use real vanilla pods, you'll experience the natural vanillin together with about 250 other compounds, and let me tell u that your tastebuds will love it. Smokey, creamy, prune-ish, raisin-ey, hint of dark chocolate, touch of cinnamon-ish spice, and asam boi (the scent from sabah vanilla) are some of the nuances I get from it. Quality-wise, I've become spoiled and cannot tahan artificial vanilla anymore biggrin.gif

I got my sabah vanilla from https://www.facebook.com/vanilla.kinarut/ and the madagascar one from lowyat user ken_zie.

For coconut extract, a packet of dried grated coconut from Giant is cheap, or u can use fresh coconut meat...just dump it in the VG and give it a taste every 2-3 weeks till it meets yr expectations.

Talk about complexity in one simple ingredient, 250 other things in it eh? Got to gove this a try la, thx for sharing bro!

You're welcome smile.gif

Leo (Sabah Kinarut vanilla) will only have more stock in April...the pods r still growing.
Out of idleness, I surfed Shopee and found Madagascar vanilla there!
https://shopee.com.my/Madagascar-Vanilla-Be...3246712.8472446

Other extracts I've made in PG and VG are cinnamon, star anise, cloves, tenom coffee, strawberry, blueberry, lime and chocolate. No recipe...just agak-agak and kept on adjusting and tasting till it felt right.
The strawberries (fresh korean fruit) and blueberries (fresh californian) were put into a cream whipper with PG and charged with 2 cartridges of nitrogen to burst out the flavor. Tasted very good....but it doesn't keep long, about 3+ weeks in fridge. The lime (local lime zest) keeps for about 2 months in fridge. All the others were just steeped in PG/VG, and keep a long time without refrigeration. Have fun!

The Lowpro rda finally arrived.
Washed it and shoved in a simple SS dual 3mm ID contact coil build. Honestly speaking, the flavor is so much better than all my other rda's, probably thanks to the very short height, and I love it! Cloud production is "ok" at best with my ADV 70VG. This proves to myself that certain reviewers need to be taken with a larger-than-normal pinch of salt.

Gonna get a Pico Squeeze to put it on...this rda is gonna be a great stealth squonker! For USD4.63, I'm very happy with it.
Fair warning: it's a bit fiddly to build...not suitable for those new to vaping or ppl who prefer fast n easy builds.
Cons: Came with 2 chuffcaps, black and white. The spitback protection in them makes dripping harder....best to use a unicorn bottle with fine tip. Those caps also do not easily screw in...gotta be careful lest the threads are stripped. I'm tempted to take a dremel to enlarge the center hole of the spitback protection. If one chain-vapes, it can get a bit hot.

After this set of coils wears out, will put a toaster element atop cotton into it. I think that build'll be good too.

Cute little atty! My vaping style is moving towards high resistance - low wattage (12-30W max), so I might pop the same build in my Odis atty.
Are you on TC mode for it? If yes what is your build and settings like?

I believe my Odis atty arrived today as well, have to wait to get home to see if they actually did deliver it.

Oh and FYI, Squeeze ships the next day on FT now. The one I ordered during Xmas was shipped today  biggrin.gif
*

Not gonna bother with TC for this rda. The Lowpro was born to be squonked on the unregulated Pico Squeeze. I been monitoring FT for that mod...still not in stock yet (ETA 1/15/2017 yeahrightsuuure), but they do have ready stock for the kit. Anyways, no hurry for new gear...I've got a few new toys to play with right now....lets see what kind of offers they'll have for CNY. As I suspected, you'll be squonking before me biggrin.gif Enjoy your Odis!

Hi guys,

just trying my luck here. is there a vape/mod repair shop near wangsa maju, gombak, setapak area?

just a minor problem actually. the back cover magnet didnt work properly. kinda loose.
used to fit perfectly tho.

im using vapedroid sbody C1D2 anyway.

thanks in advance

If the magnets are loose, try extracting them and applying some epoxy glue to fix them back into position.

Maybe the battery door and/or the main body has become slightly distorted over time due to wear n tear/pressure from the battery. If so, try slowly and gently bending the battery cover a little bit, and/or pressing down on the main body portion above the contacts.

If the magnets are still good but the fit of the door is still not proper, maybe a bit of double sided tape applied in the proper places could improve things.

That's all i could think of to help you. Dunno of any repair shop in the areas u mentioned, but if you happen to be in the SS15 area: http://www.lelong.com.my/vape-electronic-c...7-01-Sale-I.htm

Debubu is a good seller...I've bought several items from him b4

EDIT: But if u can wait, this tiny mod looks like it MAY be able to fit 25mm attys on too. The pico 75 is limited to 22mm max.

Umm...debubu has RM7 off with code HUATKAWKAW for new users...erm....maybe u can borrow a phone and make a dupe account? And yes it's cheaper than FT even before any discount, without the long wait for Singpost! biggrin.gif

Coincidentally I was just sitting down to enjoy my picos (and prep them for tomorrow's use...it's my fav carry-around mod). Espresso in one dripper, coconut vanilla butterscotch in the other on this cold rainy evening, slowly vaping while listening to the frogs sing. Life is kind to me smile.gif

rclxms.gif Welcome to the Pico club! And u got it for a bargain price! biggrin.gif I got silicone sleeves from FT in May last year. Locally, I recall Hyper Vape carrying those sleeves, but I dunno if they still have stock.
user posted image

I don't really like using them because if there's a leak, it's harder to notice the juice between mod and sleeve. Dust and lint also sticks to the sleeves...can be easily wiped off with a damp cloth. In town, my picos are nekked, but in a bouncy 4WD on rough roads, the sleeve does offer some protection.

anybody tried Regular Air Mail (FREE) in fasttech? Is it safe? I dont mind on the slow speed of delivery...
*
There's a high rate of missing mail/delivered to wrong address in my area, so I've never tried unregistered air mail. Better u pay a buck for registered, or order USD20+ to get it for free.

U can try pooling orders from fellow vapers in yr area...or even consider non-vape items from FT. I've ordered action cam mounting adapters, harnesses, drypads, lenspen, suction cup mounts and misc items for presents...all of which were way cheaper than local pricings.

Am currently considering a few of these..and waiting for CNY sale.

Noob here, and some question to ask. am using a kayfun 5, clapton coil, muji cotton, was running fine on premium juice previously, since last week change to local juice, due to budget and it tastes good, but seems it gets burnt quickly, having burnt taste after few hours, rewick and it only fresh for another few hours. recoil, and the result is same, even i try lower down the firing to 15-16w and it still last only for few hours before burnt taste appear.
it is not really a dry hit, juice the vapor somehow having the burnt taste but still the clouds is normal.

Is local juice more likely to burnt? or it is the cotton problem, I tried to wick with as little cotton as possible, or the tail short enough to tuck in to just touch the juice channel, and it is still the same, and now I have to wick like every night. and every time the juice on the deck seems to already turn brown after a few hours of usage.

Any sifus here can suggest what to do? I am suspecting the muji cotton as the local juice seems thicker and absorb slower while I prime.
*
The cheaper local juices have lots of sweetener and/or coloring in them. Will gunk up your build very fast. If u wish to save money on juice, DIY instructions are on post #1 of this thread; there's also plenty of how-to vids on youtube, and u can get the necessary ingredients from https://www.facebook.com/vaper.stuff/ Better ingredients + less sweetener + no colorants = slower gunking.

Claptons retain more heat than normal coils and will keep on cooking the juice after each toke as the heat dissipates. More cooking = more gunk. This can be lessened by switching to spaced regular coils of kanthal/SS316l.

Certain juices (like coffees, chocolates) will be fast to cause gunking no matter what u do. Better-quality cottons like Koh Gen Do, Cotton Bacon v2 and VCC Supima are mostly slower to clog up than Muji, but do cost much more.

Damnit.

I guess they (or their carrier) weren't following regulations as I never saw any of the Li-Ion stickers that always need to be applied to the shipments with batteries they sent. Can be quite big fines for this if caught, so I guess that's the reason.
*
You're probably right. Air-shipped batts have to have that sticker on them, unlike those shipped by sea.
