Pimp My Vape

 


“[Some vapers have] created hobbies out of rebuilding and customizing “mods,” metal tubes, similar to e-cigarettes, designed for “vaping” flavors and nicotine. By hacking these devices, they’re able to produce stronger flavors and — more importantly — create more impressive vapor clouds.”


There’s a great article on Mashable about the hacker ethic so pervasive in the vaping community, with users going hands-on to modify their vaping experience. It covers a wide range of topics, from vapers who create their own custom-flavored juices, to tweakers of rebuildable atomizers.


There are several inaccuracies scattered around the article that’ll be obvious to the more hard-core vapers among our readers, but it’s definitely interesting as an outsiders’ look into vaping’s “science-rooted” subculture: those of us who enjoy fiddling, rebuilding, customizing and fine-tuning our vapes.
