Cold Vapor?

Im relatively new to the vaping game and after researching for a couple of months, I figured I would start off with the Kr808d-1 battery from V4L. So far it has been AMAZING and I i've been off analogs since I got it. But now im having a little problem with the vapor. When i first got the battery it gave off a warm vapor with a nice TH, and for some reason now its giving off cold vapor with a noticeably less TH. Is this because the batteries are dying out? I got my XL about 2 months ago and my manual standard about 1.5 months ago so they are relatively new and I cant imagine that they battery would be dying out so soon. :(

I think the vapor always feels cold, but I can't be positive.

I never even knew it felt cold for longest time.
But then during the summer I had the fan on and it blew the vapor back over my face.

As far as the change in throat hit, different flavors often have different throat hit.
And if you've changed nicotine level that can also make a big difference.

Just throwing some ideas out there...

It could be the hardware as everyone has mentioned. It could also be you. When I started the vapor was harsh. That passed in a few days. After a month I wanted more throat hit and warmer vapor. I don't think my equipment changed, I just adapted to vaping. I was ready for higher voltage (or lower resistance).

If swapping out hardware doesn't help, you might consider a battery mod or LR atty's/cartos.

I'm sure there are lots of ways to skin this cat. I went with a variable voltage mod (Buzz). I liked the little extra kick my pass through gave compared to my regular batteries (3.2 vs 3.7 volts), but I didn't think I'd like jumping all the way to 5 or 6 volts. My sweet spot varies with the resistance of the atty but seems to run between 3.9 to 4.3 volts. When I drop my nic level I like it a little higher. The voltages are misleading. From what I've read the regulated voltage mods seem to keep the applied voltage closer to the set voltage than the battery mods keep the applied voltage to the battery voltage.

If your battery can handle a LR carto, that might be the easiest and cheapest way to test the waters without making a large investment. Also might give you more of a feel for what your sweet spot is.
