Shortness of breath and lungs aching after vaping?

Hi all I've been away from you amazing people for a while because sadly I had to break my streak of non-smokery, of reasons that I don't want to explain to keep this thread shorter, but would gladly if you asked me on the comments.
2 days ago I bought 200ml of 12mg 80/20 n-base in two 100ml bottles, and 30 ml of ready to vape 50/50 12mg juice flavoured with; Kentucky bourbon, coconut, roasted almond, vanilla and brown sugar (tastes like heaven). well, yeah I smoked heavily for nearly one and a half year and just returned to vaping 2 days ago and no desire for cigarettes at all since! (I have a problem though)

I even have this pack that I am not throwing away that I could smoke easily, but you know the trick I am away and I am for good. I wanted that nic rush asap and others just don't cut it, that's why I chose to vaporize 12mg, but will dilute one bottle of the n-base to 8 or 6mgs. The other reason being that vapes and selling any vape products are all banned here, (IT SUCKS!) so I want and need to get everything as cheap as possible(.... is expensive).

I am using a vaporesso revenger X that I chose thanks to you amazing people <3 with the stock NRG tank's GT 4 coil, not coils :(, Which I had to rebuild myself again. Trust me, there are no hot spots or anything, just like the original is what it turned out to be, so I know that the coil is not the problem. I know that 100% it is not because I vaped 0 mg to get used to it while I was waiting for the shipment and it tasted amazing and I had no negative effects at all. I added 9ml of mixology prime flavouring to one of my 100ml n-bases(caramel, vanilla, dried nuts and a slight touch of tobacco) and while I was waiting for it to steep, I wanted to taste it and yeah it tasted decent as well.

The problem with everything (or me) is that my lungs ache when I wake up, (happened rarely if I smoked too many cigarettes that night) I get too much of a throat hit, but the most concerning for me is that I get shortness of breath almost like my alveoli shrunk and it's like; I breathe, and my lungs fill up with air like 1 second later, I can not get the satisfaction of a deep breath, and the effects last for like 3 to 7 minutes. As I said, I smoked heavily for 1.5 years before that and this is what concerns me. Sorry for the novel-long thread but I'm just kind of in panic you know? Hopefully, you understand me. I am vaping non-flavoured n-base as of now and it is gentler on me but is still the same.

What could this be? Any help and suggestions are appreciated. Thank you so, so much for reading this. Lovey'all

Bench Test Results: Vapcell Purple T30 – 35A 3000mAh 21700…a very good performer

These tests below only note my personal ESTIMATED ratings for these batteries at the time I tested them. Any battery that is not a genuine Samsung, Sony, Murata, LG, Panasonic, Molicel, or Sanyo can change at any time! This is one of the hazards of using “rewrapped” or batteries from other manufacturers so carefully research any battery you are considering using before purchasing.

Misusing or mishandling lithium-ion batteries can pose a SERIOUS RISK of property damage, personal injury, or even death. They were never meant to be used outside of a fully protected battery pack and you use them at your own risk. Never exceed the battery’s true continuous current rating and keep the plastic wrap and top insulating ring in perfect condition.

Testing batteries at their limits is dangerous and should never be attempted by anyone who has not thoroughly studied the dangers involved, understands the risks, has the proper equipment, and takes all appropriate safety precautions.

If the battery has only one current rating number, or if it only says "max", then I have to assume the battery is rated at that current level for any type of discharge, including continuous.

Test Results
This is a very good performing cell, about equal to the Samsung 30T at 10A down to about 3.4V and at 30A down to about 3.2V. The Samsung 30T will run for a bit longer if you continue to use it below those voltages.

This is not a Samsung 30T rewrap! I do not know what cell they are using though and I do not know how this cell’s cycle life (overall life) compares to the Samsung 30T.

The 50A “max” rating of this Vapcell is useless, ignore it.

The two cells I tested delivered 2996mAh and 3061mAh. This is not good consistency and would be typical of cells from some China factories. One cell did not meet Vapcell’s 3000mAh capacity rating but it was so close that I am still rating these at 3000mAh.

I would prefer to see these rated at 2900mAh by Vapcell though since the one lower capacity cell I received cannot be the lowest rated one in the batch. The big manufacturers like Samsung, Murata, LG, etc., typically rate their cells a decent amount below the lowest capacity you will measure for any cell. For example, the 3000mAh rated Samsung 30Q typically delivers over 3100mAh.

These cells were donated for testing by Vapcell (www.vapcelltech.com). Thank you!

Now I need more. My husband has been smoking a vape for a while and likes juice flavors. He recently started making his own juice.but it's come to a point where the juice flavors are just to sweet. Does anyone have any suggestions or recommendations on either diy juice or a brand/ flavor.

Hello Everybody!

I'm back to vaping! The price of vapes have went down, and the vapes have gotten better! It was the JUUL that got me to quit smoking for awhile. It's too expensive and leaky pods. I vaped 5% nic salt before they had less nicotine pods. I recently tried a Puff Bar style of vapes and the VUSE alto and vaping greating got better.

Hey there!

Hey there,

New member wanting to introduce myself. Fairly new to vaping, completely new to this community. I hail from the Netherlands and my collection currently contains two Aegis mods (a Solo with Nautilus GT mini and an X with a Asgard Mini) and a Dovpo MVV 2 with the Dead Rabbit v2 RDA. I'm currently waiting for an Abyss to be delivered and in the next few weeks I hope to acquire a Ohmwerks, as well as a Mad Beard Onegin M. Both of which are mech squonkers. The vapelife got me good as I've also started building coils ;) I hope to have some nice conversations and to learn a lot. Cheers!

Biden Admin Mulling Massing Changes to Cigarettes

How do you think this will affect vape regulation?

  • Positively: the government is finally seeing vaping as a harm reduction strategy

    Votes: 0 0.0%
  • Negatively: this is just phase one from an out-of-control Nanny State

    Votes: 2 100.0%

The Biden Administration is apparently considering requiring tobacco companies to cut the nicotine levels in cigarettes to "nonaddictive or minimally addictive levels." But that's not all. Menthol cigarettes will be banned as well.

There's a lot of misinformation and speculation about the plans and how they might affect vaping regulation. What's your take?

Univapo Kipo MTL Pod Kit 3.jpg


Specifications
Material: PCTG, aluminum alloy
Product size: Ø18.5x86.5mm
Battery capacity: 520mAh
Pod capacity: 2.Oml
Resistance range: 1.0Ω ~ 1.5Ω
Refil: Side
Color range: Purple Dream, Lime Green, Cherry Pink, Red, Green, Gun Metal, Black.

Univapo Kipo MTL Pod Kit 4.jpg


First impressions:
Kipo Pod despite being a "starter kit" has a fairly rich package, with two different MTL cartridges (1.0Ω and 1.3Ω), a sturdy metal lanyard with silicone collar and a type-C cable that promises through a 2A port a great speed of recharging (20 minutes declared).

Univapo Kipo Pod made of CNC machined aluminum alloy, is clearly inspired by the mech mod devices, confirmed by the tube shape and the activation button at the bottom. The form factor with the pod installed is also reminiscent of a bullet, thanks to the CNC machined spiral texture.

Kipo really feels ultra portable and comfortable, but also sturdy! I dropped it a couple of times without showing the slightest scratch. Kipo is therefore a small 520mAh device with a very original design that also offers the possibility of a convenient automatic puff. Through the notification LED it will be possible to monitor the battery charge level and the operating status.
Ultimately a beautiful "Mech Style" object but with all the safety features offered by an electronic circuit.

Univapo (whom I thank) sent me three different colors of Kipo Pod, all pleasant and with different finishes (gold or silver) really very elegant.

Univapo Kipo MTL Pod Kit 5.jpg


At the base of kipo Pod there is a metal ring with a smooth silver or gold finish, the ring includes the signaling led obtained inside the last letter of the word "Kipo" (O). Opposite to the led we find the USB-C 2A charging socket together with the wording "Univapo Made in China".

Inside the compartment / pod are two circular-shaped magnets, the sensor for the automatic puff, two gold-plated and spring-loaded contact pins.
As on some "Mech" tubes the Fire button is located on the bottom of the device, I really like this idea! The key is rightly contrasted with a good return into place with each press.

Univapo Kipo MTL Pod Kit 6.jpg


Pod / Coil:
The replacement cartridges are sold in a pack of 3 pieces, on the bottom of the cartridge it is possible to identify them as their resistive value is indicated.

Univapo Kipo MTL Pod Kit 7.jpg


The cartridge holds up to 2ml of e-liquid and is built in dark PCTG, but nevertheless offers good internal visibility. The refill is of the lateral type, protected by the classic silicone rubber.

Univapo Kipo MTL Pod Kit 8.jpg


Operation Guide:
* The circuit works in bypass mode and automatically recognizes the resistance contained in the installed pod providing the optimal power for vaping.


Through the fire button it is possible to perform some operations.
- Power on / off: Press the button 5 times in a row.
- Lock / Unlock: Press the button 3 times in a row, the green light will flash 3 times.

Battery status indicator:
During the vape, the LED light will indicate the battery charge status.
- High: During operation and after stopping the vape the light is Green for 2 seconds.
- Medium: During operation and after stopping the vape the light is Blue for 2 seconds.
- Low: During operation and after stopping the vape the light is Red for 2 seconds.

Protections and notifications:
- Protection from overtime: (Cut Off) after 10 consecutive seconds of vaping.
- Low voltage protection: The red light will flash 8 times.
- Overcharge Protection: The blue light will flash 3 times.
- Open circuit protection: The blue light will flash 3 times.

USB Type-C Fast Charging:
The indicator light is red when charging and when the battery is fully charged, the indicator is off.
Via the type-c charging port with a speed of 2A it is actually possible to fully recharge the lithium battery in about 20 minutes!

Univapo Kipo MTL Pod Kit 9.JPG


Vaping test:
Definitely one of the best MTL / PODs I have tried, the Puff with the 1.3Ω resistance is restricted in the correct way, the aroma comes out well with both resistances, Hit and flavor are present and balanced even with low nicotine concentrate and the consumption of liquid is very limited. If the Kipo were a car I could say that it delivers maximum performance with the lowest possible fuel consumption.
With a full charge cycle (20 minutes) you can vape from 4 to 5ml of e-liquid. Dispensing via the button seems slightly stronger, however the automatic puff also behaves well and has not created any problems for me.

Highlight:
- Mech Style Aesthetics
- Attractive color range
- Comfortable size
- Robust
- Double activation of the puff
- Silent suction
- No e-liquid loss
- Aromatic performance and low e-liquid consumption
- Good transparency of the pod
- Charging speed
- Convenient price

Thanks for reading.

Frustrating tank issue. Maybe suggest a new one.

So I've been using the Uwell Crown 4 for a while now. I like it but the problem I have is the juice collects in the drip tip to the extent that I have to wipe it clean very frequently otherwise I get juice in my mouth. I have had numerous crown 4s and they all do it.
Recently I bought the Valyrian 2 to try out. It doesn't do it as much as the Crown but definitely still does. I don't like that tank for other reasons, though.

So I guess I'd like some advice on finding a replacement tank if yall know of a good one that doesn't have this issue.

Oh, I use 60% VG. I used to use 50/50 but switched because I thought that may help this problem, but it didn't.

Just looking for some advice here if maybe there is a solution to this or if you'd recommend a different tank.
Thanks in advance!

GEEKVAPE Z MAX SUB-OHM TANK REVIEWED BY BIGBOB2322

Hello again folks and welcome back for today's review of the latest sub-ohm tank from Geekvape. The Z Max tank measures 26mm at the base and holds 4ml of liquid in it's bubble glass of which 2 were included in my sample package, I don't know if the retail version will include 2 bubble glass though, you will probably receive a 2 ml straight glass as well as the bubble glass . The Z Max uses the new M series of coils that are quite larger than their previous sub-ohm coils. Before my review lets have a look at some information on the Z Max.

NEW M SERIES COILS


GeekVape_Z_Max_Tank_M_Series_Coil.jpg



FIRST IMPRESSIONS


The tank that I received was a sample version and some items might be different with the retail version.


20210424_131725.jpg



In the small box below the tank are a extra drip tip, extra 4ml bubble glass, 0.2Ω triple mesh coil rated for between 70-85 watts, spare o rings, owners manual and warranty card.


20210424_133242.jpg




After I washed the tank I assembled the pieces for you to see starting from left to right with the top cap and drip tip, 0.14 coil that is pre installed, barrel chamber with airflow ring attached, 4ml bubble glass and base.


20210425_095734.jpg



The 0.14Ω pre installed M coil is a tightly woven mesh rated for between 60-80 watts, the triple mesh 0.2Ω coil is rated for 70-85 watts. Trying to get a good photo of the triple coil for you was very hard because of the metal base the coils sit in that is recessed in the main coil itself, but I did get a good shot of the single 0.14 coil.


20210502_064308.jpg



This is a top air tank that has 2 large slots on each side of the tank and uses a airflow control ring that has a hard stop on both sides with just the right amount of resistance as to not come off it's setting easily. The Geekvape name is etched into the metal of the control ring on both sides. You are able to remove the airflow control ring when cleaning the tank, you are able to see the hard stop to the bottom left of the airflow slot.


20210430_150112.jpg



Geekvape made filling the Z Max tank easy by using a quarter turn to open and close, one of the locking stop tabs are shown on the inner airflow tube of the barrel chamber as well as the 2 cutouts on the top cap. The top cap secures very well and also has some knurling to assist you.


20210501_132935.jpg



The 2 fill ports are very large and are able to receive large bottle tips or dropper tips easily.


20210501_132703.jpg



The juice delivery ports are nice and large square cutouts located on each side of the barrel chamber allowing plenty of juice to reach the coil . I have never received a dry hit even chain vaping the Z Max.


20210501_172039.jpg



As far as the Z Max dimensions goes I'm very happy with it's size even though the bubble glass really widens the tank from it's 26mm base to 32mm at the center of the bubble glass but it keeps it relatively short. The appearance of the tank is bold and attractive even keeping the Zeus image on the chamber.

Even the 810 drip tip evens out the Z's look and is also the right size in height, I really don't like low profile drip tips and kept the stock one on while testing the Z Max.

I was sent the gold color version and thought I might have a bit of a problem matching a mod with it but going through my collection of devices I came across a device that had gold accents on it but it just didn't feel right until I remembered the Geekvape Aegis X that I have.

After screwing on the Z Max to the Aegis X I new I had a match especially after changing the color of the display screen.


20210501_104124.jpg



USING THE Z MAX


I started out with the pre installed 0.14Ω new M series mesh coil slightly under the recommended starting wattage of 60w, this is something that I always do with drop in coils to bed them in first. The flavor wasn't quite there after 1 tankful so I increased to 65w and the flavor improved some.

Slowly making small adjustments I came to a sweet spot of 72 watts, The flavor was good and airflow was a RDL a little on the airier side. Airflow is super smooth with no turbulence or whistle sound. After vaping the single coil for a few tanks it was time to try the new M triple mesh 0.2Ω coil out.

The 0.2Ω coil is rated at 70-85 and I began the bedding process at 67w with very good flavor coming through right away even below the minimum wattage recommendation of 70w.

After the first tankful I began increasing slowly and found out my sweet spot was actually at the minimum recommended wattage of 70 watts. The new M triple coil just kept getting better and better flavor, the triple coil has great flavor and edges out the single coil by a large margin.

Changing the wattage settings reduced some notes in the juice I used but increased other notes so if I want a little change I just begin bumping up the wattage.

I also get plenty of warmth from both coils but the triple gives a bit more than the single. One thing I noticed right away was how thirsty the Z Max is. Because of the way the coils are positioned in the chamber ( very low ) you can vape it down to a quarter of a tank before refilling which will be often.

I will list all the pro's of the Z Max but you will notice that there are no cons because I can't find a single con other than it's appetite for juice, but I would rather get a flavorful saturated vape than a dry hit so I'm fine with it's appetite for juice. I've talked about flavor but haven't mentioned vapor production, rest assured the Z Max will cloud up a room in seconds if chain vaped for a short time.

In my opinion this is Geekvapes best sub ohm tank as of this date and I will be ordering more triple coils for it. The Z Max sub ohm tank is a definite winner folks.


20210501_104319.jpg



PROS

* Great Flavor

* Attractive

* Smooth Airflow

* 4ml Capacity

* Easy Open Top Cap

* Large Fill Ports

* Top Air ( No Leak )

* Airflow Ring Can Be Removed



CONS

* 0


I would like to thank Allison and Geekvape for providing the Z Max sub ohm tank for the purpose of this review and I also would like to thank the readers of this review and really want to emphasize once again how well the Z Max performed once again.

THANK YOU
