First we had atomizers. Those had to have juice dripped into them after every hit. So then we invented cartomizers. Which were basically atomizers with cotton stuffing around the heating coils. Then we made clearomizers, which were clear cartomizers. Then, we invented tank style clearomizers...
In the later months of the year of 2013, we now have a more complete picture of what contributes to Throat Hit, aka TH. When I first came to this forum, and asked my peers what contributed to throat hit, I usually got the same answer 100 times. "Nothing contributes to throat hit more than the...
Every VV/VW mod on the market today have a protection circuit that shuts the mod down should your atomizer or battery short. They use Pulse Width Modulation to boost the voltage to 6 volt pulses. IMR batteries are rated for high drain situations, and they are considered to have a safer chemistry...
Just picked up two "packs" of NJoy Kings because I literally ran out of vapable juice almost 2 weeks ago now and had ZERO money to order any more. So, my mother bought me 2 packs of cigarettes -___- Ugh! So I went back to smoking, my only hope of getting back to vaping being waiting for an...
Quick post on trying different vendors and beginning DIY: You will get many replies. I have found from being here so much that whenever someone asks for an e-liquid vendor, the main vendors that are recommended are the ones that are popular on the forum at the time the thread was posted...
well there are some great cases for your mods, so people do anticipate the almost inevitable drop. Build quality issues I've found with the evic: Its NOT a badly built device and its not going to break EASILY. But, the threads are very small and the rocker wheel on the control head does (at...
believe it or not your not noticing a sudden influx of provari fans. this forum has had the same "problem" since the provari came out. and the reason for this is that the provari is a good variable voltage device, and the 1st of its kind in many ways. when it first came out, we were stacking...
I'm coming on in to check up on the new vaper! Hello Insignificance! You are not insignificant and your quitting smoking is very significant. I've been vaping for a looong time so I hope I can help you with this. I personally vape 12mg. I found 12mg to be my perfect level. If I vaped 18mg or...
the main thing you have to do with an atomizer that is acting up, is experiment with your draw speed, your draw strength, and how your holding the atomizer. For instance: 1. Try to picture in your mind, the juice in your atomizer right now. Maybe it is all UNDER the coil platform. In which...
please refer to my blog with any questions. You can reach my blog by clicking my user name. as said above, cig-alikes are OK for beginners, sure, but as soon as your dad realizes he can quit with vaping, he'll want a bigger battery mod such as an eGo kit, (which is a sharpie sized e-cig...
In my opinion, the amount of cigarettes you smoked each day has NO correlation to your juice's nicotine level. lol. Thats just my opinion. Your juice's nicotine level more-so correlates to how long a drag you take, how many drags you want to take before you put your PV down, Throat Hit, etc...
This was a new member's introduction post to the forum. I read it and found that it truly articulates in a very organized way the initial reaction new members can/will experience when buying and receiving their very first electronic cigarette, mod, etc. The post was by PansSiren, here on ECF...
This forum is a bank of knowledge and the members here will help you through this if you'll let them. For now? You need to R-E-S-E-A-R-C-H. Thats all there is to it. Do not impulse buy. Research. An eGo kit will be perfect for you as a noob to vaping. That is your decision. But it sounds like...
Lavatubes and/or Vmax- These are cheaper devices but they are quite nice devices in their own right. At just $50 to $100, these devices have a huge following with users of every forum. Collectors of PVs and regular users alike can appreciate the features in these devices. Both the Lavatubes (aka...
The following is a post I made to the running "Post a Picture of your PV Thread" and it was in response to a new member stating that he was stuck between getting a Caravela and a Provari. I took my time in writing this and I had to let him know that obtaining a Caravela and some of the more...
The following was a post I made about switching to vaping cold turkey. That is, quitting smoking by switching to vaping from your PV, and not smoking at all. Here is my advice/experiences: As far as quitting smoking with vaping... I've done it 3 times now, NO cigarettes. As soon as I picked up...
So you NEED your favorite cigarette brand's flavor in an e-juice? I'm sorry, but its the general consensus of the forum and it has been for quite a few years now, that a vape juice company may never be able to FULLY replicate a tobacco cigarette. There is just no way to replicate that burning...
I've been vaping Halo's Prime15 in a 3.2ohm carto at 5.5 volts for the past day. Its a dry flavor, not too sweet, but there is a sweetness. The best I can describe the flavor is... Roasted. Its a roasted peanut flavor in my opinion. Its a roasted penut, or roasted cashew type of flavor. Although...
I received "Pound Cake" from MadVapes as a 5ml sample bottle. It smelled and tasted of a very strong vanilla when it came in the mail. After a week it has mellowed to a great muted vanilla flavor. I can see why this is a vanilla cake juice. Its very close to a flat vanilla juice but its got...
Resistance- The LOWER the resistance, (resistance is also known as "ohms") the more power that is drawn from the battery. So typically, people like a 3.7v device with a low resistance atomizer or cartomizer. Typically, they like 1.5ohm to 1.7 to 2ohm cartomizers. (those are all low...
