vaping Vanilla Wild Wood today, and enjoying it immensely. Caramel WW has been my absolute favorite from Day 1, so I was eager to try VWW, but when it arrived about, idk, 5-6 weeks ago, I tapped right into it and was somewhat disappointed. It wasn't bad, but it did not live up to it's orgasmic sister. But I take it back now. I've changed my tune. After a good steep, and in the Aurora/HH.357 combo, it sings, and it's an extremely close second to the Caramel counterpart.
On another note, I'm now totally mystified by the concept of vape wattage. Up to this point, I've found that no matter what hardware I use, most of my juices seem to vape best at around 3.7v on a 2-2.5ohm coil, or roughly 8ish watts. Then I got the HH.357 @ 2.5ohms. In the how-to video, the maker lists recommended voltages for the different impedances -- wait, make that resistances, mixing metaphors and thinking about audio gear now. He recommends a *minimum* of I think 4.2v for this atty. This shocked me, because at 3.6-3.7v, it was getting uncomfortably hot to the touch. But I tried it, and after a few miinutes and making some adjustments in *how* I vape, how long the button stays down, etc, it stopped getting so hot. Now I'm just confused. But the flavor and vapor improved immensely (and somehow a drop goes a longer way which is even more puzzling), so I'm sticking with it.
On yet another note, we had some crazy thunder boomers come through yesterday, and a discomforting thought crossed my mind for the first time. In the last few years, we've had some pretty insane storms blow through that have resulted in long term, widespread power outages. That meant no showers, no toilets, no fridge, no phone (once the batt dies), and no PC. Major inconvenience, but deal-able. Now it occurs to me that this also means NO VAPE. Yipe! I guess it's a good thing I have the MVP2. I can make that sucker last 5-6 days if I have to.

Now you're going to have to vape subpar juices the next few days! How will you survive?
