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.

    @farangmick - I picked up one of these at the local Amorn Electronics shop in Pattaya for under Bt 1,000. Works fine (and will save the rice cooker [and you!]). :p

    They will give you a quote for the product after you send them what you want.

    You can also drop by their shop in Chiang Mai.

    I am new to the Ultra Sonic Cleaner thingie
    you guys put there just water or some Detergent as well?
    and if so is there anything to put inside to make copper mods shine again?

    and ... you remove the o rings before you put the stuff inside?

    Either will work...I use a bit of dish detergent for the first cleaning of new attys. I've found it helps to remove any machine oil left over from the cleaning process.

    Probably not a good idea to put mods in the ultrasonic cleaner...AFAIK, the only thing that shines copper is elbow grease & a bit of polish/Brasso (but I don't own any).

    I don't...o-rings should be fine in an ultrasonic cleaner.

    O-rings shouldn't sustain any damage in an ultrasonic, but any gunk juice underneath may not clean from contact areas.

    I just ordered one of these through Lazada but it come from China. I was looking for a solution to deep cleaning my vaping parts and this looks like it is worth a try. I will report back with a Photo of the one I ordered when it arrives.

    Don't buy anything that looks like this. Very cheap, for a very good reason. It vibrated across the floor happily for a couple of weeks. Then it worked if it got a good smack, like a 1950's TV. Now dead. Back to the toothbrush and cotton buds.:sad:

    Mine showed up yesterday from Lazada. Same one as pictured above. The one they sent me is 100-120V???? Why they would send that voltage to a customer in Thailand I can't even imagine. I will return it of course for a refund. Now I am off to Tukcom in Pattaya next week to see if they have one. Good thing I checked the voltage before I plugged it in or it would have been toasted.
