VAPE DRAMA!!!
.JPG)
DRAMA…………
…..isn’t here, but we’ve plenty of things worth getting yourself indignantly over excited about. Many folk were mortified at the bare faced nerve we had to offer you a 33% discount on our wire reels, but we didn’t care. We were even less bothered about what people thought when we hit you with a cynical cash grab 15% discount on Evolv DNA Boards. And now we’re about to something else as equally irksome and daft.
So prepare yourselves for some awesome lack of innovation followers of fashion! This one is almost as good as a pod. We’re going to completely and totally surprise you by giving you a total slap in the expectations. You’re going to feel as cheap and dirty as our idea.
Ready for it?

JULY BONKERS WIRE SALE !!!!
JULY WIRE SALE !!!
A long time ago, in a reality far far away, a man with a plan sat hand winding kanthal onto business cards, with a feverish mission to bring you the finest vape wire in the galaxy....
Some said he was crazy, many scoffed at such a sally, but the evidence is impossible to refute. Ok, we may be a little a bonkers (we’ll certainly give them that), but nearly eight years on our wire mission is totally and utterly well good. Clean, consistent and expertly reeled, we have built our success on providing only the best product to the best customers, and we really are very chuffed and excited about that.
So not only do most of our Kanthal, Ni80, 316L, Ni200 and NiFe reels already come with a whopping 50% extra free, but now there’s also a little something else. A little thank you for trusting our leap into the great unknown....

5 EASY WAYS TO CLEAN A SQUONK BOTTLE
5 EASY WAYS TO CLEAN A SQUONK BOTTLE.
Squonking is fantastic. There’s no denying it, but like everything else in vaping, there are certain routine things you have to do in order to make sure you’re getting the best vape experience every single time. And this one, I have to say, is definitely my least favourite of all…

Dry Burning and Pulsing your Coils: What You Need to Know...
Back in 2016, scientific friend to the vapersphere (and all-round good egg) Dr Kanstantinos Farsalinos inadvertently caused a kerfuffle by discussing “dry burning” coils in an interview on what was the old Ry4 vape radio channel. Concerns fluttered across the internets that we were exposing ourselves to potential unknown harms when building and maintaining our wire and coils for vaping. We panicked. We argued. We consulted arcane metallurgic grimoires and tomes. But mostly we just argued, nothing much actually happened, and the rest, as they say, is confined to the lore of vape history....
But some effects of that discussion remain. With the massive popularity of complex coils like Fused, Staple Staggered Fused and Alien Clapton coils, and their increasing use amongst folk relatively new to the rebuildable atomiser world, people are (quite rightly) asking questions about the materials and techniques they’re now using. They want to know how to correctly make their resistance wire work properly for them. They want to know what’s the best way for them to clean their coils. They want to know how to make their wire and coils last as long as they possibly can. All of this this they want to do effectively, and most importantly, they want to do it safely.
Is dry burning and pulsing my coils going to make me die? A reasonable question I’m sure most of us would agree.

400 Watts?! Why??!!
400 Watts! Why??!!
Good question. A box mod with the ability to safely deliver 400 watts of power does at first glance appear to be a little bonkers. In an interview with DJLSB, Brandon from Evolv (the manufacturers of the DNA 250C board for modders) said 400 watts was unvapeable.Why? Because he’d tried it. So why would he make a board that does such a thing? I mean, surely the “wattage race” of a few years ago is over, right?
Fortunately there’s a bit more to it than just wattage willy-waving though. The DNA 250C board is a remarkable piece of electronic engineering. It features not only variable wattage, temperature control (all pioneered and developed by Evolv) but also utilises the groundbreaking “Replay” function. This function will work with any temperature sensitive wire material (such as Stainless Steel 316L, Titanium and NiFe30). Dubious results with Nichrome (Ni80 / Ni90) can be achieved but it is not recommended, and unpredictable Kanthal (although a mix of 316L and Kanthal can be used) is definitely unadvisable. This feature allows the vaper to simply adjust their vape to taste using wattage, then when they’ve found the “sweet spot” click “Save” and the device will enter “Replay” mode. This will then deliver the same vape experience to the user over and over until the atomiser runs low on liquid. At this point the useful temperature limiting of temp control kicks in and prevents any nasty and unpleasant “dry hit”. So at the push of a button you have the same sweet spot vape again and again until either you battery needs charging or you’re out of liquid. It’s like some sort of pleasurable vaping Groundhog Day. And almost as cool as Bill Murray.

Which is Best: Silver, Silver plated, or Copper Contacts?
Which is Best: Silver, Silver plated, or Copper Contacts?
We get asked this a lot. And there’s always one answer: “That would depend....”
Each material has its benefits, and also its drawbacks. Selecting which to use in your device can depend upon several key factors, and depending upon which factor you wish to prioritise, the answer to the question “Which is the best contact for my mod?” will vary.

TFR CSV Files For Our Wires
What is TCR or Temperature Coefficient of Resistance?
Every wire material has a specific resistivity. As a wire heats up, its resistance will increase in a predictable way based on its TCR.
TCR for a material is usually measured by the wire manufacturer using MIL-STD-202 Method 304, which uses a series of test temperatures. The first series is 25°, 0°, -15°, and -55°C; the second series are 25°, 50°,75°, 100°, 125°, 200°, 275°, and 350°C. The lowest test temperature in the first series, and the highest test temperature in the second series, are used as two points to create a linear TCR value.

VAPE FEST 2019 CANCELLED
We're very sorry to see an announcement posted on UK VapeFest's official facebook page that what would have been the 10th event, VapeFest 2019 event will not be happening.
When Ric, Vapefest's previous organiser stepped down after the 2018 event the committee vowed to "build upon the legacy and bring more UK Vapefests for the vaping community to enjoy" in their announcement shortly after VapeFest 2018 it seems that wasn't possible.
