After 3 years smoke free, back to smoking. Need to start vaping again.

[The Ocelot]

Maybe I wasn't clear: but, I do not mix my own juices. I'm simply looking for unflavored liquid in bulk in the pg/vg ratio that I like. Something ready to use and at the nic level that I need. (When I first started vaping it was 18mg but because of my smoking habit now I feel like I need to start with 24). Are there other vendors I should look to for finding 24mg unflavored 70/30 VG liquid?


edit: unless I'm mixing things up, I think im looking for 70 vg and 30 pg. unless that is some crazy cloud chaser ratio, I thought that was the ratio I used to use to not gunk up my coils so fast!?? Sorry for not remembering!!!!

This is my favorite juice vendor. Unflavored e-Liquid | Vixen Vapors

I placed an order with FT. Do they always ask you for a picture of your credit card, or is this a scam?

Edit: Money for the order came out of my account, and I've bought stuff from them before without seeing this. Of course that was years ago. This sounds super sketchy to me.

I've never been asked for that, though I mainly used paypal. That does sound like an odd (and unnecessary) request, maybe check their bulletin board to see if policy has changed? It should be in their terms and conditions too, I guess... If they had a reasonable rationale, I might feel more comfortable doing it. That said, I'm not sure a pic of your credit card gives any more information than typing all the digits on it but they may be trying to avoid fraud in some ways?

I always use PayPal for FT. Only takes a minute to set up and a handy service to have.

The one time I didn't use PayPal they wanted a pic of the card. They want to make sure you're in physical possession of the it. Another site I deal with that's not vaping related wants photo ID and proof of residence before they send money (but not when you send).

If a site offers PayPal as a payment option, I will almost always use it.

The V1 and V2 were beset with problems. I had a V2 that died last year, but it had been out of use for about a year and a half before that. My V3 and V5 still work perfectly. They really are beautiful devices and yeah, I still use'em from time to time.

I take the gunmetal black one out and about in 18350 mode sometimes and I get a lot of questions from people who have only known the Box Mod.

Wish I could get mine working again if for no other reason than nostalgia. My one had the 'rattlesnake' sound which was a sure sign the early Vamos were not a great feat of electronic precision.

I only had one 18350 battery, just the one, and I got it precisely for the Vamo. In 18650 mode the thing was so big that a pornstar would be proud.

There would surely be a weapons act somewhere that it was in contravention of.

If you want to quit smoking a higher nic 50/50 mix on a lower Wattage device would probably work for you. Here's a liter of unflavored 50/50@18nic for $17.99 and you can look around the site for other liquids as well:

18mg E-Liquid Nicotine

I just bought a liter of VG from them and I'm pretty happy with it.

Like you said,,, there's so much out there.
Here's my imput...
1- Authentic KangerTech JUPPI 75W TC VW APV Box Mod Kit $41.o6. Will want 2 batteries + charger.
( Great Flavor,, Nice Clouds... coil will last long-long-long time. Just put new cotton around the coil )
You will want to you tube it to learn if this is what you want..
2-Kanger K-Pin Kit... All is included.Just need the juice. $19.00 . Battery Capacity: 2000mAh.. for 40 bucks from ecig.com, you can get 2 and always have 1 charged. ( Same as above to youtube it to learn more.
Both these will keep it simple.

Every store I'm looking at for replacement coils seems to be out of stock for the t22 coils. Is there a shortage going on, or am I just looking in the wrong places?

Try using vapecrawler.com, which is kinda like Google for vape gear.

They do however sometimes link to pages showing items out of stock.

Vapecrawler is your friend... I hope you find the coils you are looking for...

Best of luck!

As the title states, I was smoke free for 3 years thanks to vaping. In that time I became very experienced with a variety of mod and tank types, had an entire collection of vaping "toys", experienced with rebuildables and drippers and the like(sorry I don't remember specific terms/brand names!). But then I started smoking again. Tried to quit with the patch (thought I was going to be successful and got rid of my old vaping stuff during a move) but that failed. Now I'm looking at vaping as an easier way to simply stop smoking (I'm already back at 1+ pack/day).

My problem: All of the new developments in vaping are leaving me utterly overwhelmed and confused! When I was vaping I had all kinds of fancy mods/tanks/whatever stuff, so I'm not a total newbie, but I am looking for something very simple to get off the smokes and there is just SO MUCH new stuff out there.

Before I started smoking again my daily carry was a mechanical mod with a rebuildable tank atomizer. That one super popular one that everyone had that I can't remember the name of. Using unflavored 3mg 70/30 VG I believe (Obviously I'm going to have to restart at 18 or 24mg!).

Can anybody give me suggestions on devices to look at to get started again? Preferably:Something low maintenance and simple (I don't think I want to go rebuildable right now), Ideally small-ish, will last me through a full day in terms of tank size and battery. Basically, if all I have to do is fill it/charge it when I'm at home at night (I also work 10-12+ hour shifts everyday) That would be great!! And durable too, I can't tell you how many devices simply broke on me.

I have noticed this new "pod" system in my beginning research on getting back into vaping. While it sounds very interesting, it doesn't exactly strike me as being cost effective and the tank sizes all seem so small?! I'm used to a standard of 5ml tanks. So obviously a lot has changed in vaping since I was in the loop and I would appreciate any sort of advice.

Thanks!

I don't think it can get to much easier than a Juppi Kit.
Kanger Juppi TC Box Mod Starter Kit $49.99 ( Get it in 3 days )
$41.71 Authentic KangerTech JUPPI 75W TC VW APV Box Mod Kit - 3ml / 0.2ohm / 7-75W / 100-300'C(200-600'F) / 1*18650 at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping $41.71 ( Get it in 3 weeks )
You wont need to build coils. Only re-wick them like you never seen done b4.
My coil is still brand new after 3 months and 150 to 250 ml of juice. Actually, I bought a five pack for $14.00 and I don't know if I'll ever need them.
I torch the coil with every cotton change out. (8-10ml)
This little 2ml tank IMO is one of the top tanks for flavor. And creates a thick cloud as well.
The tank itself is about $15.00. (.23ohm Nichrome (notch coil))
You will want a couple good batteries.
Best to watch a few reviews,,
Best of Luck aje....

Go to heathers for unflavored, it's called NADA and it is unflavored e juice that you dont have to mix.

Nada - $6.00 : Heather’s Heavenly Vapes, Top Quality Custom E-Liquids

I'm going through posts and I'll be back with suggestions.

It is a popular item, so places may be sold out. I gave you a link to Fast Tech earlier in the thread. They are in China, but A+ on the trust chart posted in another thread. I just ordered more yesterday. If you order 5 five packs at once it is about $1.18 per coil, and they are genuine. I use USPS E- packet shipping. Took 8 days to Chicago suburbs on last orders. For less than $30 you will have a years worth of coils if you are doing unflavored, or light juices without a ton of sweeteners. Use paypal if you have it. Secure.

I would not go with the pod systems if I were you.

As you were using a mech with a rebuildable atomizer before, and want something durable now, this is a good suggestion for you:

Aegis

And I would pair it with a good sub ohm tank, the wismec reaux is one good suggestion for you.

Wismec REUX Sub-Ohm RTA Tank | Ultra-Versatile Structure

With this set up you will only need 12mg of nicotine to start, and the ceramic coils will give you excellent flavor. Much more efficient at delivering nicotine.. if 12 is too much, then go for 6..

Good luck to you!

More expensive here, but in US.

Innokin Endura T18 / T22 Replacement Coils (5 Pack)

 

[redeuce]

Here's FT. The price will automatically drop to 5.92 per pack when you put in a quantity of 5.

$6.52 Free Shipping Authentic Innokin Endura T18 Coil Head (5-Pack) (Endura T18 Coil Head, 1.5ohm: 5-Pack) at m.FastTech.com

Excellent price. Great coil.

Only buy genuine T18/T22 coils. A couple guys I know complained about leaking. Turns out they got Innokin I30S coils because supplier said they fit. They look alike but don't. Among other things different silicone seal. There are knock offs out there too.
A T18 or T22 cannot leak unless you have the wrong, coil, a defective coil, a warped piece on the tank, or a cracked glass. The coil pushes in and seats to the tank. Then you screw on the bottom of the tank. The top of the tank has a ridge that seats into the silicone gasket of the coil. There are no air holes. If all parts are good, it's as leakproof as a tank can get.
I carry mine upside down in my pocket so I don't lose the drip tip.
Some people make the mistake of grabbing the mod when unscrewing the top to fill. The tank bottom can loosen this way. Hold the bottom of the tank when you unscrew the top.
If the tank is secure in the 510, the bottom and top are snug, you can store it up, upside down, sideways.
Once or twice a week unscrew the tank and dab any condensation off bottom of tank and the 510 connection. When you fill it, dab the silicone seal so it's dry before putting top back on. And clean the drip tip and hole once in the while.
Maintain, and it will be your mtl friend.
Get a tank band too. Just in case. I've dropped mine on both tile and concrete without a prob.

My t22 and unflavored juice came in the mail. I took a few puffs and now it isn't doing anything!? When I try to fire it the button just flashes green. I did a google search which said to make sure the connection is dry but still I'm having this problem. wtf is going on? I'm about to smoke more cigarettes until I figure this out!! I used it for only about 10 minutes before it crapped out!!!
