1. Welcome to Thailand Vapers, an English language forum for members in Thailand and the rest of Asia to talk about vaping.
    Commonly referred to as e-cigarettes, vaping is really about the use of personal vaporizers (mods) and atomizers (tanks, clearos, RBAs, RDAs, RTAs) filled with e-liquid.
    Are you looking to get started or an old hand at vaping? Everyone is welcome here so sign up today and talk vaping with us!

    I clicked on the thread because of the thread title.

    It appears that this thread has nothing to do with whoremongering as I had been initially led to believe.

    I am disappointed.

    The id of a 510 is 8.5mm with o ring so the widest bore would be 7.9 mm most DT are around 5mm inside Diameter . I am waiting on some more SS rod and will see what i can do do you prefer a short dt or longer .
