M2L is all I really enjoy. I tried lung inhales when I played around with dripping on a Mephisto but it just didn't do anything for me. I still drip but I use a Magma on single coil and a small(er) acrylic drip tip. For me there's only one reason to do a lung hit...and it's been years since that urge has hit me. :2cool:

I still don't know what I am. I kinda do both at the same time and interchangeably. I smoked tobacco before vaping, ALL kinds off tobacco, via many many different methods of smoking them. So was an all of the above type hitter (drawer) before and kinda the same now. Pretty much if I need a dose of satifaction, ie nicotine/whatever, couple big fat lung hits. just want a taste to roll around the tongue and sinus, to savor, maybe a little puff.

Well, very interesting responses. Thanks everyone... seems that I may have never had enough air flow to get an adequate straight to lung hit. I keep trying and on top of it being awkward I feel like I miss the flavor... Although letting it out my nose helps that. Someone said they bet I use clearos or setups with less airflow and that is true. I mostly vape silo lite with aspire bvc (non nautilus) coils on my ipv mini and istick. Recently got the joyetech egri with the rba base which has the most airflow of anything I've ever used. However, soon I'll be buying a subtank mini or two and that is really what brought all this to my attention. Someone had said mouth to lung hitters may not like the subtank mini because it doesn't vape well for that style vaper. So I began paying more attention to my style... Wondering if it might be a mistake to buy it if it doesn't suit me. Since reading other mouth to lung hitters have adjusted I am still considering it... I am concerned about my nicotine level though. I have mostly 18mg juice and if what I'm understanding is correct, that could make me nauseous... so... If I buy some juice at 0 nic same flavor and mix em 50/50 I think I'll be ok, right? I had to go down with my egrip rba too... just a better delivery so I don't need such high mg's with it... well, I'm glad I asked. The people of ECF came through again... Thanks everyone!

Well you don't really get a straight to lung hit on a Nautilus. You need a device that has much more airflow. The devices that offer this kind of airflow are designed to be used at high power and make massive vapor... the airflow is needed to keep the vape comfortable. When vaporizing that much juice, 18mg is going to hurt. You could tone it down with a 0 nic juice, but it would also work just to pick up a bottle of vegetable glycerin and just dilute it... you probably will need a good amount of this (more than half) because you will probably end up feeling comfortable once you get it down to about 6mg or below.

If dripping or using my atlantis i just basically start breathing in and immediately exhale. I do not take a secondary breath of clean air to pump the vapor deep into my lungs.

If using my nautilus mini ill do a combo of the above and also use my cheeks to do a mouth inhale, still not taking a draw of fresh air afterwards to get it deep into my lungs, i just kind of hold it in my upper respiratory if that makes sense.

airflow aside ive been using my egrip with the rba base and it delivers nic better than anything I've ever used. (I've never really successfully dripped) Tonight i went 50/50 with my 15mg nic juice and some 0 nic vg and flavor is still grrrreat and still i think i could drop my nic some more... I'm liking this, a lot...

Uhm, I'm a lil confused... reading snd trying what you explained, lol... not sure I got it... and sounds like you have some good lungs...
typically I'll draw into my miuth for 6-8 seconds (stopping just before 10 sec cut off) then inhale and hold it 5 or more seconds... not exactly sure why. It's habit now though...

I was straight to lung on smokes and do the same with vapor. I can't taste anything anyway. Gotta be careful though...have received a few dry hits with the deep ones.

This must be one of those things like the right and wrong way to load your dishwasher or take a shower?

If there'sanything I do know about vaping there is no right or wrong way, lol... the dishwasher is another story. there is most definetly a wrong way... lol
