So tonight I was going through my vape drawer, organizing and what not, and I pulled out my old T3S tank and 650mah KangerTech battery. Just for old times sake I cleaned the old T3S and filled it with my favorite juice. Took a few puffs and it brought me back to when I first started vaping. I really enjoyed it. While this in no way lives up to my current vape expectations, it was fun just to tinker with my old things. Just wondering what everyone has sitting in drawers. I figured most probably pass their starter kits on to beginners, but when I started I ended up with lots of batteries and single coil T3S tanks. While I have passed down quite a bit, I usually keep one of everything, even if I think I'll never use it again. It was neat to see how my vaping needs have shifted and how my simple little starter kit got me off cigarettes. And it makes me wonder if I never would have upgraded if this would still work for me to this day. Just curious who else digs out their old equipment for a test drive every now and then.

I just took a puff off of my nautilus mini on the iStick and was like, "oh yeah!" I was digging for some backup nautilus coils because when I first got it it came with 2 BVC coils and they seemed to last almost 2 weeks. The replacement BVC coils have been either burning up within an hour or the longest one has lasted me recently was 4 days. So out of 5 replacement coils only 1 made it to day 4 without tasting like a campfire. I primed, waited, primed, started low volts and worked up with no success. The BVC coils it came with I was running a 12-13 watts no problem for weeks. These replacements seem to be burning up at 8-9 watts. I just remember the good old days where I filled my tank and hit the button and was happy. T3S coil would last a week and I was happy. Now I need more vapor more flavor and I'm like why can't I just be happy with my cheap starter kit. Lol. Why did I buy all this! I'd be lying if I said I didn't enjoy the hunt for my perfect vape. Have you found your "perfect" setup if there is such a thing?

I have 6 T3S/MT3S tanks, and a couple of Mini PT IIs, and some brand new never-used coils that I bought right before I got my first Kayfun. I did try using both a Mini PT II and one of my T3S's recently, but it was awful. I guess the juice I use now is too much of a "gunker," because both of them, by about the 3rd puff, gave those awful dry hits. The juice isn't thick at all, no thicker than the Virginia I used at first, but it *is* sweet, so maybe that makes a difference, I dunno. But as far as I'm concerned, they can all stay in the back of the drawer.

I vape that sweet stuff in a cartotank; I do have to change the carto about every 3 days, which I gather is a lot more frequently than most people do, but at that rate, a 10 pk lasts a month, so that's fine. It's worth it to me because I just don't like the Virginia anymore, and there aren't any other juices that I can vape constantly, all day every day, except this blueberry muffin/banana nut bread.
