Hello

Welcome J Sickness to the ECF!

All you had to do was say hello. Then maybe give us a little information on your current knowledge and setup. Within an hour you would have had the required number of posts by just replying to those who respond to your post.

Trying to avoid the post count limit right off the bat is definitely not a good way to start.

Welcome to ECF, everyone will answer your questions in this topic as well... just a simple spambot measure by ECF.

Hi J Sickness! Welcome to ECF!

(This is the part where you say hi back)

How are you today? Tell us more about how you got into vaping.

(Your backstory goes here)

What set up are you using?

(You describe your set up)

That would have been 4 posts already.

 

[J Sickness]

I understand... it's just a little frustrating....

i dont really have any questions tho... im pretty secure in what i vape... how are yall doing today?

[MODERATED]

So in an attempt at not getting another slap in the face .... i would like to state that im *wondering if this counts as #2?

 

[JRIP]

Good and what are you vaping on?

Hello and welcome to the forum. Glad to have you here!

There will be 4 more to come :/

No there won't. Our mods are a "STEALTHY" bunch.

i dont really have any questions tho...

Alternatively you can post responses to others in the New Members Forum. It's always nice to help out others that aren't as knowledgeable.

sry yall... I didn't mean to come off like that... i really didn’t expect such a live community here

here's some pictures of my set up.... oh wait... i cant submit a link... (fail) - lol

Well... the link is... jsickness.imgur .com

im currently using a 26650 at > .3 ohms (dual coil w/ six wraps of parallel 26g kanthal and organic cotton) but im safe as im still vaping within my 60a burst for my battery im thinking about taking vaping to the next level... as i am a cloud chaser (which can be dangerous) but at the last vape meet i saw alot of people running parallel 26650's which were producing almost 2x the amount of vapor *jus a little jelly over here - sp reference

but im safe as im still vaping within my 60a burst for my battery

You have quite a few nice devices/toppers in your collection! How long have you been vaping?

Just a note...

The constant amps rating is what you should be concerned. The burst rating is only meant to be maintained for a period of 1-2 seconds at most.

It's okay. We just get a lot of posts like this! lol

We understand it's frustrating but it really cuts down on the spam.

If you hang out here and just say hi to other "noobies" those posts will count as well. Since you're advanced maybe jump in and answer some questions they have.

i really didn’t expect such a live community here

There is over 18,000 ACTIVE members here no other vaping forum comes close.

JSickness's albums - Imgur << Here is your link

In general, many of us don't like to talk about pulse Amps, especially in the new member forum. Too many uneducated new members wanting to blow cloudz. And (in general) most of us respect the continuous amps (with headroom) of our batteries.

This is a blog post by Badditude (our battery/safety expert): Continuous Discharge Ratings vs Pulse (Burst) Discharge Ratings

The constant amps rating is what you should be concerned. The burst rating is only meant to be maintained for a period of 1-2 seconds at most.

I only use IMR batteries so if they start to get hot or vent (which none of them have thus far) then i will simply open the mod and pop in a new battery - (after i check my build of course)

Ive been vaping on and off for over 2 years now... i started on a cig-a-like and im now looking for something bigger than a 26650 (power wise) *kind of crazy i know... however, to me vaping is not all so much about quitting analogs (which i was on a pack a day b4 i started...) but its now more like a hobby... what do yall vape for?

**EDIT** hey Susan~S thanks for the link and (we can drop the battery converstaion)... i didnt get to read your post b4 i posted this... but i can always del it if yall want?

 

[Susan~S]

I've been vaping for 8 years. Started as a way to quite smoking, now I enjoy it for the flavor (and some decent amount of vapor). I enjoy the comradery I find on this site.

I don't have to sub-ohm (although I do on some of my gear) to get all of this. I'm currently vaping on a mini Woodvile, 1.4ohm single micro coil, with Peppermint Bark (from Ahlusion) and it is heavenly!

 

[J Sickness]

I feel the vape tech 2yrs ago is terrible compared to today... i can’t imagine how you feel about 8yrs :/

Yup, you can't even imagine what we had to do to get a mediocre (by today's - or any standards) vape!

The rise of the ego battery and a carto tank was when it started to get better. No more proprietary connections, tea bags & aquarium filters, boiling, etc, etc.

The industry has really grown by leaps and bounds, FINALLY!
