What advice was that please?

I think pictures from the first moon landing are both amazing and engaging. Having seen the images before doesn't diminish them in my eyes nor make them any less compelling, but that's just me. :)

I use normal 0.25 or 0.30mm kanthal. I understand twisting lowers resistance, but does it do anything else? Edit. Sorry, I should have just watched a bit more of the video - hard to do when it's Rip :) Here's a little video of dual micro-coils in an Origen dripper. Footage at 400fps taken with...

My box had no seal nor any evidence of there having been one so I'm not sure if there was supposed to be one. The plastic bag the camera comes in had a seal though.

+1 I couldn't see what all the fuss was about - I thought it was just reviewers nit-picking. My Nikon J1 can turn on with a twist of the lens, but you have to hold a button down and it doesn't turn off when you close the lens. The XF1 is straight-forward and doesn't take much to work it out...

I think the idea is that you buy them all at the start and they are unwrapped at monthly intervals. Still a great idea, just watch out for any "use by" dates on gift vouchers or tickets.

Just be careful if attempting to solder to batteries. I'm not 100% sure of the technique required, but I think it goes along the lines of high temperature and short contact time - please research properly before attempting. As for £300 for a battery - I'm utterly gob smacked. I used to work in...

Vapour production is influenced by many different factors, some of which also result in loss of flavour. Low ohms, high watts, dual coils, big airholes, high VG juices etc. If you're not using the same equipment and juice that person in the video is using, then it's a moot point anyway. How you...

Thanks everyone for the welcome. :) I've now bought a Nikon J1 twin lens kit and may be looking into an 18.5mm f1.8 lens mainly for indoor shots. First impressions are very good, but I'll need to spend some more time with it before splashing out on another lens. I'm Spanish as it happens Sara...

Best of luck Martyn, I really hope you succeed. You're right that there's still an addiction involved with nicotine in e-cigs and also the habit side of it too. I would rather be free of nicotine altogether, but it's a far less harmful alternative to smoking for those of us still addicted. I'm...

Testing my new Nikon J1 out :) 2nd pic is on a Canon 400D

I really dislike those things. I think they are over-priced and nowhere near as effective as they imply they are. By saying "Costs less than regular cigarettes, depending on usage" it would be fair to expect them to last the equivalent of approximately 15 - 20 regular cigarettes. You might want...

Old post, I know, but could anyone show me what a diy bounce adapter might look like?

Hi everyone, I just picked up a J1 twin lens kit for a song. It's my first decent camera, my current one being a Nikon S570 although I've also used my brother's Canon 400D. First impressions are amazing and I'm just getting to grips with the basics. Low/indoor light seems good with still...
