You can still find Kanger Kbox mini mods.
Good little mods. TC sucks on the new ones but I do not use that anyway.
Youtube is a great resource for learning to rebuild and wrap coils and even making ejuice.
For good batteries.
LG HG2, Samsung 25R and 30Q, Sony VTC5A and VTC6. For complete battery info check out Battery Mooch's vids on Youtube.
Good resource here as well for general questions and making ejuice.
If you go 100% DIY and Rebuildables your costs will be vastly smaller than smoking costs.
My vaping costs are $20 (USD) or less per month and I go thru 20-30 ml of juice daily.
My sympathies on vaping in Australia from what I read it is about to get very difficult.
Thanks so much, Yes nicotine usage in vape is completely underground that being said their is no governing body to enforce it yet i.e. cops dont go to local flea markets and hassel sellers, It's only illegal because my government hasn't found a way to tax it and if they did they would be responsible for a tech/product that hasn't had proper study on if it is harmful or not. If you havnt heard already, Cigarettes are roughly $20 USD for a pack of 20's in an covenicece store. Our government originally used the excuse of what smoking costs our universal health care but statistically speaking every year there are less and less smokers in my country and at the moment we only have a population of 25 million with a set explosing of 80% growth by 2050 with a predicted population of 36-40 million people which only leads me to believe my government puts the taxes up each year so they can 'make hay whilst the sun shines' same with petrol/diesel, We have massive fuel tariffs, Roughly half of every dollar you spend on fuel goes on tax, Our energy suppliers rip us off blind as well as they know their days are numbered as more and more of us are switching to solar panels on our homes.
It personally doesnt bother me if the effects of vaping on the body is harmful, it's got to be better for you then smoking and I have already noticed my health improve so the proof for me is in the pudding.
I just found a mob that sells machines to crush any plastics you want and then create filament for 3d printers. Id be pretty happy if I could take plastics i.e. a milk jug or a plastic sippy cup and crush it down and print things for home. Plastic isnt going anywhere but things like this are a step in the right direction to an alarming problem, Plastic is evil and not only that continues to drive the oil economy.
I will start looking around your information in hopes of one day being able to produce something from almost 100% scratch
