Tootle Puffers, Redux (The Sequel)

[smacksy]

Noooooo, now you've gone and done it! Shall I take the dangling bait? Your comment may prompt me to edumacate myseff, thus leading to an avalanche of purchases.

Are you willing to be partially responsible for me blowing my retirement fund?

So, I got a co-worker to start vaping and he's been happily tootling away with his Ego One since July. He's one of those "Millennial" types and swears by shopping on Flea Bay. He just texted me and said he got 3 "duds" out of his last coil purchase.

Where can I send him for good, authentic blister pack coils?

MFS seems to have authentic coils.

Watch a bunch of reviews on Youtube. Very enlightening.

I see you up in Canada, but your profile didn't state whether you're male or female... Just thought you were male. But your right, I couldn't tell from your Avatar pic either way..my bad, [emoji12]

For me, the thought of making any purchases is like opening a bag of potato chips - once I start...

I opened the vaping door 5 months ago and have yet to make additional purchases since my first 2 (no pointing & laughing! ) I'm STILL trying to decide what to buy as a 3rd set-up! Sheesh...

Me too I have until last week the same setup over and over again. I have picked up some rebuildables to play with and for the stash and some far my $3.40 setup works better.

I don't even know what half the stuff is I see people talking about.

Perhaps ignorance is, as they say, bliss

Just nod and smile.

View attachment 509615 found this in walmart good for juice mixing and transfering into smaller bottles just dremel the needle off level with the side hole to lose the pointy tip holds 30ml

I was looking at on of those last night only in stainless.

Thanks @Robert Cromwell that's what I love about ECF folks...always helpful. Don't know where I'd turn if I hadn't landed here.

I've been watching quite a few vids on YouTube. I've recently subscribed to Paul Busardo's YouTube channel. I quite like his reviews. Even though I'm "lost" sometimes while watching him, I'm hoping I'll learn by osmosis.

Cheers

Ignorance also can mean you have no idea how good your Vape can be, you're missing out. Lol

They say "ignorance is bliss". I think this might be especially true of vaping gear. Unless one has unlimited funds! If one is happy, why rock the boat, right?

Nope, no "bad", not at all. Us Canuckleheads can be quite androgynous The profile pic is our new Prime Minister (right @TrollDragon ?) ...I like to dabble at caricatures

No harm done my friend.

Sadly they don't seem to have anything for the Ego One

EDIT:
But Wow! 12 bucks for Nautilus BVC's sounds great! I'm gonna snag some for my Kabuki's

Because one can always be "happier"
improving his vaping experience with new technology...I'm always chasing the more perfect vape myself to remain tobacco free and enjoy the pure pleasure I get vaping... And the $$ I save not buying 4 cartons of Marlboro a month anymore buys alot of new gear, juice and accessories... just sayin[emoji12]

Indeed @fourthrok. Living in Vancouver can be financially challenging, especially for us retired folk (I'm not complaining! ...love retirement). That said, I need to be very careful not to run amok in our local vape store

Don't know anything about the Ego One but I buy all my coils from Fasttech only authentic.

I too have been using (2) ego ones since July. I buy my replacement coils from our local B&M. I grew tired of buying packs of ego one coils and getting bad ones in the lot. Plus, I found the coils constantly unscrewed from the housing. I was given 2 Protank 2's a while back and have used them on both ego one batteries ever since. They may not be the latest/best tanks but I prefer them over the ego one tanks. The draw is tighter which I prefer AND the replacement coils are half the price of the ego ones.

Bull crap, if I was any happier my head would explode.

Don't get me wrong because I like to tinker with new gear but the truth it my older gear performs more reliably and consistently than any of the new. I trust it fully. Sometimes you can educated yourself on new gear/technology for interest but othetimes it's better to spend quality time understanding what you have.

I am not sure I would even recognise a perfect vape because it's in the eye of the beholder. I vape to remain smoke free and must have reliable, consistent and replaceable gear. The rest of the tinkering is a hobby but rarely replaces what I use to vape everyday. Tootle puffing is the perfect vape for what I want......it does not get better

 

[juskiddin]

About to grab the walking poles and do a quick hike...because I can breathe so much better having given up the smokes!

Have a great day everyone, wherever you may be.

Cheers!

Ok long excruciating post time:

First, was the question about TC ever answered as to whether you're a Tootle Puffer or not? As far as 375F being a good temp - well, it is. I don't have to worry too much about wicking issues when running at such a low temperature as the combustion point of MOST wicks is between 390-430F (I'm referring to cotton and rayon primarily). And you're absolutely right AndriaD, wattage really plays no real factor in TC except the amount of power used to heat the coil.

Second, contrary to popular belief, TC coils don't 'HAVE TO BE' spaced anymore. The reason they space TC coils originally is because with the older model TC devices, a contact coil would tend to throw off the sensor, causing your temperature to fluctuate greatly. That has been fixed with some of the newer chips now. And with the continued advances in TC technology, before you know it - we'll be able to run some crazy coil builds with all of your favorite metals... mixed into 1. IE Nickle fused Clapton with one strand being Titanium and the other being stainless steel - LOL! Or alien wire with Nickel, Titanium, Stainless Steel, Kanthal, and Nichrome - WITH RIBBONS!

Last, Kayfuns don't hate anyone. Kayfuns love everybody... equally... even though they tend to show some amount of distaste for some...

Ignore that part, but Kayfuns... I love them - still. They are my "go-to" tanks and will continue to be until I quit vaping. I do keep my Kanger Subtank around when I need monster hits though. But as far as convenience, fluid capacity, flavor, and construction... my Kayfun goes with me - EVERYWHERE. They can be touchy at times but keep your head up because they still (to this day, despite what many say) produce the best flavor, hands down. I frequently pop my old Kayfun(s) on to test juices with. Because a Kayfun doesn't lie (if it's built / wicked right) by telling me whether or not the liquids have been OVERFLAVORED or TOO MUCH / LITTLE of VG / PG / Nicotine. Also the draw is about where I like it - kind of like where I enjoyed my cigarettes - TIGHT!

Enough rambling out of me for now. As far as me being a 'ModWhomper' - how about a hybrid genus? The TootleWhomper?

We keep telling folks that we will chat to anyone (well within reason). Happy go lucky TP who thinks everyone has value to the vaping community. I find this thread to be pigeon hole and judgement free....so you can be whoever or whatever you want to be.

Ps note to self to keep using power puffers in a sentence.
