After lurking for a month I've decided to join.

Hi everyone!

I've been ONLY vaping for about 3 months now after smoking for about 27 years. After countless failed attempts at quitting, I became reserved to the fact I would never get over the grips smoking had over me. That's not the case any longer... whew, (wipes forehead) finally!

My setup is the MVP with various Aspire BDC tanks and the Nautilus. When I first found this forum I was vaping the local shop's house juices. My eyes have been opened to the various vendors you all have mentioned here on the forums and my pockets thank you for it! Mainly a tobacco flavor guy, I'm loving Halo, Backwoods Brew, and that mysterious Boba's Bounty.

Anyways, I should keep this short and sweet.... and, thanks for having me!

Three months, wow, that's great. And welcome!

Yes it is! I'm totally loving it...

I do have one question though concerning dry burning. Thus far up to this point I've been soaking my coils in Vodka to clean them. Should I be dry burning after to extend the life of them? If I do dry burn, what voltage should I do it at and how long? Can I burn the cotton stuff inside the Nautilus coils by doing this?

You'd only want to dry burn silica coils or empty coils, cotton and other natural fiber wicks will scorch. Dry burning will remove more gunk than soaking will, though how often you need to do it depends on how quickly your coils get gunked up. I generally would dry burn every other time I rinsed or soaked the coils, and I went with lower voltages though I've seen many vids where people go with the highest. Once it glows normally it's clean, let it cool then rinse the ash off. There's lots of Youtube vids on the basic process.

Congrats on your 3 months! It only gets better.
