Also my e liquid doesn't last as long in my new e cig.
Muscles cars have awesome power but when taking off from the starting line you can watch the gas needle just drop.
Well, in the instance of e cigarettes, your juice (aka e liquid) is your gas. The more power you put to it, the more you will consume of your e liquid.
Just find a happy place where your getting enough power to satisfy your cravings for a cigarette, and realize that is the amount of e juice you will be consuming. We are all different in this regard, I think average is anywhere from 5-7 ml per day, but some go through less and others quite a bit more. (I've seen some people say they go through upwards of 15 - 20 ml per day)
If you find buying e juice is too expensive for you, you can always make your own -but that's a subject for another day when you have a little more experience under your belt.
Terms:
VG = vegetable glycerin
PG = propylene glycol
Your nicotine level is based on milligrams per milliliter of e juice. So if your at 6mg, then it's actually 6mg/ml of juice, but it's easier just to write 6mg.
Vg does make you slightly dehydrated, so drinking more actual water is a good thing. This is across the board for everyone.
I've never heard of vaping making anyone constipated, but if your having a decent intake of fluids then add more fiber to your diet. Fresh fruits and vegetables, salads and such.
don't drink anything an hour before bed either. It may help with the getting up to pee in the middle of the night.
Nicotine makes it more difficult for some people to sleep, so avoiding nicotine an hour before bed might be of some assistance too. You can vape some zero nicotine e juice in order to keep the hand to mouth habit assuaged if need be.
Other abbreviations include:
Rta = rebuildable tank atomizer (for people who build their own coils instead of buying factory made ones)
Rda = rebuildable dripping atomizer = for people who don't want a tank reservoir for their juice. (Long story, no point explaining, but they literally drip juice onto their wicking material instead of filling up a tank with juice)
Rdta = a term that is just an rta.
Coil = your atomizer
Wicking or wick = what goes through the coil and wicks the juice to the coil which is the heating element so that e liquid can be vaporized.
Tank = reservoir that holds your e liquid
Juice = e liquid
Drip tip = that thing you put your lips on when vaping.
Mod = your device that houses your batteries and computer chip which makes your atomizer fire. (Stems from the beginning days of vaping, when people were actually modifying... now it just means your device)
Fire button = the button you push to get power to your atomizer.
Atomizer = coil but with the wick in place
Coil = atomizer but without the wick.
Those two above terms are used interchangeably and can often mean the same exact thing to the person writing.
510 pin = the screw which protrudes from the bottom of your tank.
Atty = short for atomizer tank and encompasses the whole of the piece you put juice in and screw onto your mod.
Nic= short for nicotine cause we are too lazy to write out the whole word.
Can't think of any other abbreviations right now.
