I just modded my Russian 91% for giggles. Drilled the air flow port out a bit bigger, and the air hole at the end of the intake tube (at the build base) I counter sank. Increased airflow dramatically.
Then mixed a 70VG/30PG juice and put on a high flow drip tip.

For a lung hitter its pretty beast and the clouds it makes are truly just insane. Like a fog machine and thats not stretching to much lol.

Pretty fun to play around with.


I use 4mg Nic with it though, because it produces so much vapor, any higher is too much for me.

I'm at 8-10mg 50/50 now in the Kayfun though, as my all day vape. Not quite ready for 6 just yet but in a couple months Im going to try and drop to 6 all the time.

I've tried mate. Believe me, I've tried. She has the will power of a packet of biscuits.

Yep 70/ 30 seems a good mix,
16 nic seems a bit weak to me after using 24 though :/

Two weeks today at 11pm am cst

Most actually prefer a 70/30 if they want the flavors to come out. Now if 16mg is weak and you have 24 and that later seems weak and then you try what a few vendors offer at 36mg(Ultra High) and find that weak is because it takes a 50-60mg to equal what you get from one regular tobacco cig! The absoption from vapor is far less then seen from smoke!

I still have bottles with 24mg here and don't even notice a difference to those without unless the vape is noticeably warmer due to the nic being present. In fact I just took two flavors from two vendors one with and one without and mixed them up since those were old try over a year since first ordered in order to see them vaped off. Haven't noticed one iota when adding nic from one into the other. Same as when first looking into vaping.

Here I run mainly 0% without any problem since I was able to simply give up the tobacco draw which is where the actual "strong enough to draw you back" pull comes from not the farse about nicotine which by itself is far from being addictive! Vaping is an entirely new experience that you have to break yourself into over time. This is what you will be finding for yourself is that the long time tobacco taste will be no longer as well as the flavors and vapor being much. much cleaner.

Another thing I found worth mentioning is no longer seeing a head cold move into the chest in the last few years since I started vaping as PG was found back in the 1940s during WWII to kill off the Influenza virus during the outbreak at that time by spraying it in hospital tents. Now that I am no longer breathing smoke just one more improvement in health!

I know mate, exactly why I want to do it. I'll get round to it.

It will help if she wants to as well.! The addiction to habit is the overwhelming part where you have to find a way to break the cycle but gradually introducing her to vaping not trying to ram it on her with big demands of any type. Here I still lit up for months while first getting into vaping and then gradually finding the need to upgrade the hardwares. Likewise most have to find just that right "sweet spot" and then go from there!

You mean the physical habit?
This was the part I struggled with the most by far. The simple act is hard to break. But, I know now it was all in my head.
Quite difficult to realize at the time when you're trying still trying to break the habits though.

That's where the problem lies! At first vaping seems like the new toy being a new experience until you realize that this is the actual alternative when not being to simply quit cold turkey as many have actually done and never looked back. Vaping also seems at first to be a good temp substitute not replacement of.

Will power and state of mind are what actually outweigh any farse about how strong addiction to nicotine is. Unfortunately that has been pumped up out out of reality for so long people believe they could never when actually it is more of the matter of simply "setting the goal to do so" as far as quitting the one habit with or without any assistance.

What vaping does over the long term is keep you from going back since smoking is too well remembered when you decided to light the next one up. All that "oh yeah..." comes right back at you! The object lesson however is reaching that point where you say "never again"! Any time the urge to reach is felt you say to yourself "no thanks!" and shrug it aside not to hide it under the carpet for later but right into the garbage can!

One thing you may have to watch out for and what most people(people who vape regularly in particular) may not be fully aware of is how drastically your taste will change as it did when you first started smoking and loss of appetite as food no longer tasted as good to some extend to suddenly finding it tastes even better now! It's not only the e-liquid flavors you go through and favorites are learned there but your dietary intake can be effected.

To understand that one better over the last few years even before the first disposable came along my intake was shrinking a bit. Once I quit it didn't seem like I was eating any large increase in the volume of food but the calorie count still went up and rather then being a bit underweight I went in reverse to having gain some extra. I found that out when the arm on the belt got sucked through the loop one day telling me I needed a new one since my waist line had grown. Try a good three inches in just a year's time without even knowing it!

Off topic. Out of interest Night Hawk, how did you come about your username? Do you mainly come out at night or something like that?

Well to be frank I was finding myself always looking after things more so at night especially when a friend or two ran into pc problems and I was then asked to look at something whether on desktop or a bug on a laptop. I reinstalled Vista twice on an older Toshiba(2007 model) as well as saw two hard drives replaced. The original Hitachi bit the dust and then the WD scorpion went where a second of those went in. KIDS!

Oh yes Mommy let the kids use it and malwares, rogue spywares, etc. got on because someone clicked the wrong.... trashing Windows naturally! Plus I was until recently looking after someone close at all hours of the day and night since mid 2006 explaining a lot of "restless days and restless nights" explaining the Night part of.. Hawk as the watchman part! debugging the headaches of others there!

 

[paulpicks21]

Well that explains that then lol.

Now Vamo V6. Thinking of ordering one tomorrow as a kit which comes with 2 different size batteries and a charger as apposed to the one on it's own in this link. No variable Voltage, just Variable Wattage, is that an issue? Discuss.

[Dude]

I'm not sure if it's different or they just call it variable voltage instead of volts. I'm doing good, right at two weeks cig free. Spoke with my better half (The wife) and she is going to give vaping a go soon

Here is some info on the comparison

Nice job Doug. How you feeling health wise?

I was pretty sure before but that link kind of confirms it's just 2 different ways of inputting a certain amount to get the best flavor. I am not really sure why many have both VV and VW perhaps just like metric and imperial for some people? Each person prefers to work by one or the other.

Cheers for the link and well done again. It will be 2 months for me on Friday. Looking forward to some new juices next week.

 

[Dude]

I am feeling better. I have noticed I smell and taste more, and I am hungry a lot more. I will probably end up gaining some wait, but that's okay. I came in the world fat and bald and will go out that way

 

[essenbe]

Not sure I like your chart Doug.

 

[essenbe]

Great job on the smoking. Great job. Both you and Paul have done real well. Congrats to both of you.

Nice one Doug, the first thing I enjoyed was actually not stinking of smoke all the time. Clothes just soaked up the stench of cigarettes and now I can wear the same clothes for 2 weeks without changing (just joking lol).

I don't know if I can smell or taste more. I think beer tastes worse not sure. I will have to try a few more and get back to you on that one.
Lol. I think I am eating more too but I was getting skinny so I need to put on some weight.

Thanks Steve, I hope you are doing well with it too.

I noticed that with beer too Paul, I confirm that just drinking more resolves it.
