CLEANING THE TAIFUN GT

A PBusardo Video – Cleaning the Taifun GT

I was going to do this anyway so I decided to roll the camera!

BTW – I said in the video it was a 4 wrap, I think it’s more like 6. Wanna call it a micro-coil? Ok… it’s a micro-coil 🙂

SOME QUICK NYS MATH

I was curious about something so I looked it up and figured it out.

In NYS, the state makes $4.35 on every pack of cigarettes sold.  In the city, tack on another $1.50.

My habit was a pack day, sometimes more on the weekends.  For this example, we’ll assume a pack a day.

365 x $4.35 = $1587.75

Put the research aside for a second… As a vaper, I’ve personally experienced…

  • An improved sense of smell.
  • An improved sense of taste.
  • No pain from my first deep breath of the day.
  • I don’t get winded as fast.
  • More energy.
  • Less sick days.

We should probably also mention the number of fires that would be prevented per year if all smokers became vapers.

From the US Fire Administration:

an estimated 7,600 smoking-related fires in residential buildings occur annually in the United States, resulting in an estimated average of 365 deaths, 925 injuries, and $326 million in property loss.

As a vaper, NYS has lost $1587.75 from me per year.

From one single person… $1587.75 per year.

So I ask you… do all the proposed bans, tax hikes, and regulations we’re fighting have our best interest and health in mind… or perhaps the pockets of government instead?

Oh well… there’s always the Legal Vape 4000.

ALL ABOUT THE DNA-20

A PBusardo Review -The DNA-20

Although I took a look at the DNA-20 in the Opus-D review, I wanted a stand-alone DNA-20 video I could refer people to when looking at DNA-20 devices in the future.

Some review in this one, but it’s all-inclusive.

Hope it helps some of you out there.

DR FARSALINOS RESPONDS TO THE NEW FRENCH STUDY

If you’ve seen some of the headlines lately, you may have raised your eyebrows.  I’m getting a bunch of questions over it.

The study was done in France and we’ve seen some headlines such as “Study says e-cigarettes contain carcinogens similar to regular cigarettes” and “Report: e-cigarettes are ‘potentially carcinogenic’”

Take a deep breath (which most of us can now do thanks to electronic cigarettes) and read the response from Dr. Farsalinos HERE.

And let’s remember folks, the use of electronic cigarettes is harm reduction, not harm removal.  The safest way to vape continues to be… not to vape.

Now, let’s enjoy a tune from Germany! Nice work Jayden Lyrics & Philgood.

(in my best cavemen impression)
Ugh… me agree… Phil Good! 🙂

I WAS A COTTON VIRGIN

So I’ve been hearing a lot of about cotton lately.

COTTON –  COTTON – COTTON !!!

I always doubt until I try for myself.

Finally, the Golden Greek God himself came down from Mount Olympus and said, “Hey Feel, you should try some cotton.”

I’m one of those guys who, if I can get it to work well and I’m satisfied with the vape, I call it good enough. If I can get a slightly better vape but it increases my build time or adds steps to my build, I will usually shy away and stick what with works “good enough”.

Since using cotton simply changes one material for another, I decided to give it a try and bought some from Mod & World.

My first attempt was using it in the Russian. I rebuilt it last night. I wasn’t expecting much, but I’m quite surprised and pleased.  I made sure the wick was boiled & dried before using it, and that the wick and coil were well primed before the Russian was buttoned up.

This is one of the issues with cotton.  It burns.  So if your wick isn’t always nice and wet, it could potentially burn, unlike silica which has much higher temperature resistance.  Dry burning is also out when using cotton!

Unlike my experiences with Ekowool, which I’m not completely sold on yet, I liked the flavor of the cotton right off the bat.  I thought it was slightly better & cleaner than silica.  Wicking has also been flawless so far.

I see more cotton wicks in my future and look forward to trying this in more devices.
