I was watching this video,
When he said he goes through coils about every three days, I was thinking that's too damn expensive for my blood.
There's no bulk discount on coils from Volcano and they are $12.99 for 3 coils.
I've been getting pretty good mileage out of my coils.
Yea that's the bad thing about Volcano.
I found it best to dedicate a coil to a single flavor. When I changed, I'd put in a ziplock and label it, and put in a new coil for a new flavor.
Things may have changed but it seemed it went bad or tasted bad quicker if I tried doing different flavors from same coil.
So far the only flavor that seems to linger for me is the watermelon, which I taste a lot on my other tank even with a different juice.
That's a good tip, changing it for different flavors.
Yep I usually do start to inhale before I push the button which does help,
I don't think you need the prime it with an entire puff but just a split second
3 days though that's just whack there it wouldn't be wroth using at those costs :/
10 coils a mouthtime for a better rig
Here I push the button and then pause for a second or so to allow the ejuice to start heating in order to convert to vapor before taking each puff. You'll find that the coils won't flood as easy where you start hearing the gurgling sound. Drawing on it first often results in saturation.
Now for a variety of flavors I invested the Tumblers with multiple color tanks to catagorize each color like Menthol or Mint flavors in the green, Berry, fruit punch, tropical blends, in the red or violet, tobacco with blueberry in blue, caramel, butterscotch, etc. candy type flavors in amber/yellow tanks, and for others like Chocolate, Mocha, Coffee in the dark smoke color tanks while the clear tanks are reserved for sampling a little of one with another or some new flavor being tried out for the first time while even those may end up in a color tank.
That requires multiple tanks on more then one battery or apv, mod in order to have several set up at the same time. Just to get an idea of what I mean by having a variety of things I took a fast photo of the two mod stands and a couple of other items of interest with the case in front given to someone to try vaping out before getting hooked on any regular smoking habit and another ecig that actually could be mistaken for something else!
You have to look closely at it to notice the cartridge attached since it resembles a cigarette lighter. On the far right on each stand you will see the Innokin box mods being the MVP in the rear and VTR in the front stand. The front row of each is for bottles of e-liquid while the holes in the front stand were not made quite large enough as specified to fit the 60ml size bottle since the vendor only used the diameter of the bottle's diameter not allowing the extra space needed and why those two are empty there.
Yeah, I'd be looking for a different one too. Something a little more universally available.
Wow, you have quite a collection Night Hawk, what is that Zippo lighter looking thing?
Believe it or not while running a search for something else last year I ran into the eCiggo Kit due to having ecig in the search terms used at the time. They have a sale running it now. I dumped the cartridges after I had a non menthol smoker try those and ended up using the Bloog refillables I already had for it since it's 808 threaded like those.
I also ordered an 808 to 510 adapter which I can then add a 510 to eGo adapter on top of that to vape with a regular tank! I still have a quick snap I took as a gag for stealth vaping with the cell phone. The snap is a bit blurry but you can get the idea of how that went!
That's an interesting kit. So is the "Lighter" part the battery or the charger?
That is the battery! The 350mah battery is made to look like your typical Zippo lighter but has the threaded hole in the center for their flavored cartridges to thread right in. You get that in a complete kit with the charging cord which has the usb plug on one end and the other with a tube with threading on the inside that fastens to the battery as if you were putting a cartridge on. Then there's the 5 cartridges in one tobacco flavor only.
Noticing that the Bloog blank refillable cartridges(one on battery next to eCiggo) were threaded the same I then went for the 808 to 510 long adapter(plus 510 to eGo short adapter) to try a few tanks on it. That's when I grabbed the quick shot there for a laugh. I had a few friends in stitches when I pulled that one on them!
Originally I liked the idea since I could have the feel of the lighter after 3 1/2 decades of having one in a pocket. I later ran into mini size eGo batteries also 350mah but were eGo threaded. I found those while searching around for some smaller clearomizers and ran into the last two CE2 3.5ml "Giantomizers" that unfortunately were disposables as well as discontinued. Then looked even more and found some eGo-W pen caps but the loose sleeves made them useless since the battery and tank would drop to the floor when holding the slip on sleeve only. So those were tucked away for some time until lately going through all the bottom coiled(previous pen style top coiled) and ran into these which put out vapor without turning the watts or volts up. Smok FBC Clearomizers
The FBC clearomizers there have replaceable 1.8 ohm coils that will go into other clearomizers as well as some tanks. For anyone that like a pen size ecig that's an option since you can put just about any flavor of any brand you want into the FBCs and not worry instead being stuck with a selection of flavored refills. You save on the $$$ as well as getting a better outcome as far as taste and vapor! I carry a pair of the 350s on me in a small leather flash drive holder in case the usual larger VV/VW battery suddenly is found to need recharging since at least those will take both 510 and eGo threaded clearomizers and tanks for temp use until back home.
(The eCiggo on the other hand turned out to be more of a novelty rather then practical for the carry on you at all times spare ecig (clever for stealth ... umph clears throat :) ) like the others.)
