Nice story, GG. I did Camels (mostly Camel Light 100s) for about 50 years. Started vaping a 618 e-pipe (was also a tobacco pipe smoker and cigars too), but it turned on by suction (no fire button) and I didn't quit the cigarettes. I got the EVOD thing and iStick30 about the same time. Won lots of juices from several vendors and was having a hard time figuring out what flavor I wanted as my primary vape. Once I found "the one," I dropped the stinkies. All those mods in the picture (a couple posts back), I only bought the EVOD-wannabe, X6, iStick30, and Kbox. The others were PIFs or contest wins. I have often wondered if I like the iStick30 best because it was my first baby, but having played with those others, both good and bad, it is still my "go to."
I still want a dual 18650, just for battery life mainly.
That Koopor is dual battery and, with full charge and using a KangerTech Protank-II (1.8-Ohm), after only about an hour of sucking (not the total time of being "on" but total time in use), it is down one bar already. I haven't had it long enough to know yet how long it takes to run those [3000 mAh] batteries empty, but I suspect if it were my primary vape, it won't last all that long. I get two days on the iStick30.
my vaping is all over the place.
Wow! Most people I have talked to so far tend to be one or the other. Nice to know there are some who run up and down the scale and still enjoy both sides. So you think it depends on the type of juice. I have heard similar suggestion from others. Maybe that's why I am not sub-Ohming... my favorite juices are high in butterscotch and chocolate and work best at lower Watts, while Wifey is primarily into cheesecake, graham cracker, various creams... maybe that needs higher Watts???

Well, time for me to get off here. Another long day ahead tomorrow.

6 think I will follow these tracks.jpg

Yes, I do think the type of juice makes a huge difference...I have this one juice I just loved in my Nautilus Mini running around 10-12W and thought I'd give it a try in my Subtank Mini running around 20-22W...never could find the sweet spot for it in that tank and those watts...it's a fruity vape and I guess it just doesn't like higher watts...I have other fruity ones that are awesome in that range. So I guess that's why I vape at so many different levels. It's all about taste for me and I'm finding each juice has it's own level that it's perfect at. It's just a matter of finding out what that level is.

I don't have that affinity for my first mod. I'm too poor for such things. lol That's an interesting point about the battery. I forget that it depends on how they're set up, series or parallel. Sometimes my brain still says "more batteries equals longer battery life." I didn't start researching such stuff until I started vaping.

TIOA Sns 6 eps 2: Blue watched as little darling skipped away...... leaving through the door and while shutting there looked to be a electric wave shutter. Something was different.

Angel was back. How did it go? Good, just like normal. Did anything happen? No why? Are you sure, something is different? Nothing stated Angel and placed her hand on Blue's shoulder with a smile.

Blue walked through the ship, watching all the people and the surroundings, it looked normal; but the color was just off. Her mind was beginning to think more; when Count got up out of his chair and walked through Blue without seeing her.

Oh no.

Good morning, everyone.

You could always get one of those new Mini Volts, they're tiny. It would look like your Koopor had a baby mod. :)
Ah, no. I'm not really in the market for anything new--the MVP, though, is a good price.

I know both Count and Shawn are also on the high end
Actually, Fuzzy, I'm not at the high end. While I do most of my vaping in Subtanks, I almost never go higher than 20 watts (25 max)--and usually stick between 12-14 watts, even on a 0.5-ohm coil. On a 1.5-ohm Aerotank coil, my upper limit is usually 11 watts. I don't know if any of my flavors would taste better at higher levels--the vape is usually too hot for me or I can taste the beginnings of a burn.

Rainbow Pajama Party! :lol:
Wow, no self-respect left for that mod! :laugh:

Computer issues tonite...
Good luck with that, Katz!

TIOA Sns 6 eps 3: Blue went back to the machine and set the settings for forward time... She stepped into the machine.

There was a table, circular; and Blue was sitting looking at Blue standing. Fuzz said "You can not be here." This is not the place. Blue looked out the window at the stars moving past the ship.

You need to go back to the present and find the answer there........ she returned. No one could see her.... Angel! She ran forward; reached out her hand and it fell through her.

TIOA Sns 6 eps 4: We are ready. stated Angel. Blue gave a fake smile. All ready. "You staying behind again?" asked Angel. Yes, stated Blue. The machine worked and all the treefam went back in time......... all but blue.

The ship was not empty, Blue could see everyone on her. The bodies walked around, ate, sat; things all would do. Blue could walk through them all, none could see or hear her...... she was the only one who knew that something was wrong..... it was out of place.

The present was not being kind, no word from another; no interaction........ walking toward the machine, she set a date. She would leave them all on the ship; and go alone.
