    Pls Help me

    The thing is.... Most hobby vapers upgrade to big battery/mods eventually. A 200w mod and the Melo 300 is often unnecessary to quit smoking, but be happy as you will enjoy and use it. People quit smoking on very basic devices, some not even 20 watts. If you get a good level of Nicotine and...

    Pls Help me

    You'll get used to it all. The Melo 300 comes with a six coils (in one) 0.17 beast! Think of it as attaching a space rocket to your skateboard. Great - if you like that kind of thing.

    A vaping story: An embarrasing vaping anecdote

    Sounds like an audition for Breaking Bad II. Do Fasttech sell Polycarbonate Safety Shields? (I want one between me and the wife when I'm vaping CCD....)

    Buying from Fasttech

    I usually buy Authentic and pay the extortionate $2 charge to get it in 6-10 days instead of.... ... zzzz... ... zzzz ... Ask me in 2018. :-x

    Ecig problem....

    Just in case you are still confused. W is the watts. (unit/measure of power) V is the volts your mod is 'using' to make 21.3 watts. Ohm is the resistance of the coil/atomizer head (unit of...um... resistance) A is the amps (unit/measure of electric current) that will read something (probably...

    Hello :)

    Great! This is what we like. It makes the rest of us feel more normal. :eek: :D Welcome to THE ECF :thumbs:

    12mg HARSH!

    Hi @Reloader1 No, i.m.o. - it is not always the case. Either the liquid (ingredients) or a change (rise) in power or a different atomizer. I was vaping 3mg last night (54w) and loaded up my day-time atomizer with 12mg this morning and have it on 14w. Now, if I tried 12mg at 54w then I...

    Just started

    Well done @Wallydragon Anyone who ditches iqos for a real vaping device gets my vote. Their wallet will thank them too. I can't get the Penguin to work satisfactorily. I must be too much of a newbie.

    Really liked my eLeafs until this week :(

    i.i.r.c. all my internal Eleaf iSticks are now broken/dead/expired. My Pico is holding up well though. Vapers become fairly philosophical eventually. You save your health, you save your money (once you stop shopping!) and things are not so bad. I bought a Cortex mod that never worked...

    A vaping story: An embarrasing vaping anecdote

    I accidentally ran an Innokin iTaste battery on and off for almost an hour in my pocket during the eating of an Indian meal. It got hot, I got hot and the Chillies were the least of the problems. I think the restaurant enjoyed the smell of extra lime though. Mods in pockets is OK as long as...

    Hello!

    Welcome @Neekolie You'll be OK with the 'Reactor' from Halo. It's a good & proven design. Sadly, Halo don't make it. :eek: It's likely you were sent there by the mysterious advertising powers at work in the e-cig universe; of course nobody tends to shop at Halo for long because they take...

    Another newbie question - how often should I rewick?

    I've been known to change dripper wicks daily. On a rebuildable tank... less regularly. I like things as clean as possible, so 3 or 4 days seems about right.

    Where do the flavor chasers hang out these days?

    I can't find them either. My mod reads 0.98 ohms so shucks, I guess I'm out of the gang. Good luck. :)

    RTA - Mouth to lung - subtank replacement needed

    The eGo one range uses the Joyetech CLR coils which are re-usable with a clean, dry burn and fresh cotton. The cotton is tricky to get right at times. You have to cut very close. MT Baker is not my kind of option for Europe, although I know they tried hard to ship to the EU. These days, it's...

    RTA - Mouth to lung - subtank replacement needed

    Can you say what watts you like to vape at? I use Merlin (Augvape) and Kayfun 5 (SXK).. both are good, BUT Merlin doesn't last forever. I can probably tell you what is not good more than what is proven.

    Hello from Chicago

    I make a DIY liquid from concentrate intended to taste of choco/nut/almond candy bar. I give it a mark of 3/10 at most. As for eating the real thing... yup... I have been on a chocolate splurge now for 5 years. It started the day I quit smoking and got worse as my taste buds got healthier (or...

    Hello from Chicago

    What a fabulous start to posting on the ECF @Robby Wilson - The thread opener was just brilliant! There is no 'best' watts, only bad tasting vapor when you realize they mostly are too optimistic about the possible watt range of factory coils. I more or less vape half of the maximum. If I want...

    Ktech toptank nano user, alt tank options

    Kanger don't make stuff deliberately just off. They do however make fairly proprietary stuff. (You need to visit the nasty rip-off brand e-cigs for that really, deeply, despicable behavior. ) I could name them, but they have lawyers. :eek: Anyway... whatever... Chicken or Egg? If you want to...

    Best wattage to use

    I know lots of 0.5ohm coils that are seemingly (magically) able to 100w which in reality need to be vaped in the 30w area to last more than a day or two. The infamous iJust2 was blasting away at nearly 60 watts on a fresh battery. Coil life = 2, maybe 3 days at best. "Many burnt tastes for you...
