Any Vapers?

[derekimo]

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.

 

[Wishmaster]

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.

 

[derekimo]

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.

 

[ThrashZone]

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 mouth time for a better rig

 

[Night Hawk]

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.

 

[derekimo]

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?

 

[ThrashZone]

Wow ? more like shit

 

[Night Hawk]

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! :roflmao:

 

[derekimo]

That's an interesting kit. So is the "Lighter" part the battery or the charger?

 

[Night Hawk]

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.)

Seems mental to me for someone to get through a coil every 3 days! He must be a real heavy vaper!

I would say I get through between 3 to 4ml of juice a day and each of the BVC coils for my Nautilus mini has lasted over 2 weeks so far. Considering they are less than £2 each I am happy with that.

 

[ThrashZone]

Well this is the end of the third week
I finally polished off the volcano chocolate 70/30/24nic that was almost full Steve sent not sure how much of that he used with a full tank left in the inferno,
Plus 2 tanks of the American tobacco 70/30/16 nic of which it's still full in my other tank,
Probably would say 10 mils a week in actual usage :/
One coil in that time so the costs are low,
I did mix a cowboy blend 25/75/18nic 6mils left over with a deadly sin 12nic I guess 50/50 about half full too 6 mils together plan to use that with the cleaned coil because the 25/ 75 seems like it's going clog up a coil pretty fast as would the 50/ 50 stuff ?
Derek's been using the d-s 50/50 so it must of lasted 3 weeks to so I'm not sure about the mixture of 25/75 ?
But the deadly sin 12 nic was too weak anyway so I said what the hell

 

[paulpicks21]

The Vamo and the Nautilus arrived. I am very happy with it.

What did that setup set you back Paul ?

 

[Night Hawk]

It looks like the color of your V6 is brass black or gun metal chromed there. Were you able to get into the menu options with ease or did you run into the same thing as far as the need to work fast to move and click the main button when going to enter one of the settings?

I see you went the older model by Nitecore. The one I ended up with here I got off of Amazon being the D4 model that also charges AA, AAA batteries. The D4 features the lcd display that shows current a battery is charging at, voltage, etc. http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00KW3MTNG/ref=pe_385040_30332200_TE_item

The total for the whole kit was 49.99 ThrashZone. That was in the UK, I would imagine it to be a lot cheaper in the US.

It's Black Chrome, great for fingerprints! The menu did not seem bad to me, I only went in to change it to display the Ohms of the coil but it was not very hard to do.
It came as a complete kit so I didn't have a choice over charger or batteries but it saved a bit compared to buying them individually and made it very easy.

 

[ThrashZone]

Not bad for a Cuban

 

[SIW2]

Fifty quid?

Have you got a link to where you got that whole kit.

I might buy it for somebody.

Are there 2 batteries - looks like it in the photo.?

The only other thing needed is the liquid?

Vamo V6 20W Full Kit Black Chrome - Mods

Yes. You get the Vamo V6, 2x batteries, a charger and a choice of clearomizer/tank from a drop down menu. See picture.(some are free or you pay extra if you want a high end one). The clearomize/tank coils will only last a certain amount of time though before they need replacing. The norm seems to be a couple of weeks for a coil. The coils are relatively cheap but it's worth checking how much they are for the tank that is chosen. For example if you choose the Kanger Protank 2 I expect you will get 2 coils with it which will be good for a month and then you would need to order some more which would be these - Protank & Evod Coil head - Accessories not very expensive.
It's free delivery on orders above £40 and £1.95 for orders under £40.

 

[Dude]

Anyone get the vaper tonged thing?



I need to get some more juices, I think I am going into "vapor tounge" earlier I was thinking my juice must be bad. Then I replaced the coil, same thing..not getting the same taste.


I have been vaping that Bavarian hazelnut/bourbon hard.

My juice seemed to loose the strong flavor it had at first.

Apparently I should rotate my juice selection more according to google fu.
Have you had that?


Edit:

I was in a rush earlier when I posted this. I'm busy handing out Halloween candy to all the kids.

I can smell way better now, and taste all the food I eat amazingly better now, but all of the sudden I can not taste my juice as well. I cleaned my kit, replaced the coil and same thing, the taste has lessened.

I googled it and came up with the vapers tounge IE http://www.ecigarettedirect.co.uk/ashtray-blog/2014/03/vapers-tongue.html , that's why I asked.
