heidi ho! (MilesCadre)

[milescadre]

So I been lurkin and lurking round these forums for months now and decided to finally register up.

Little bit about me I suppose is in order;

I started vaping around 7 months ago, I picked it up simply because it looked cool. I dont smoke, I never have smoked, never will smoke, so it definitely makes me get a TON of weird looks at my local vape shops.

As such, anyhing I vape must be 0 nic, which again gets me all them weird looks.

as far as my collection goes, I have several ego style batteries, a chemesis (nemesis clone) a chammer (hammer clone) MVP v2 (my fav <3), and in the tank department I have a ithika, kanger pro 3, pro 2 mini, agr+, iclear 30 and 30s, not to mention several other stragglers.

I'd have to say my major goal is to find a good performing single or maybe even dual coil tank. I've used cartos and theyre ok, but I really want a nice warm, flavor filled vape and the iclears seem to work great for this, minus the horrendus juice consumption ^^; so I'm kinda lookin for a single coil since my kanger mini pro 2 works so well.

Also need ot look into a good charger for my batteries, I use a 18650 NCR18650CH panasonic in my nemesis and a cheap dishy 18350 (which will soon be replaced by a AW preferably in the very near future) for my hammer. I'm looking at the efest LUC charger, lest theres any hrrible reviews (IE makes batteries explode?)

also I plan on kicking my hammer, so a 18350 that would be capible of 8-9 watts of vaping would be nice for recommendation (considering I dont vape alot, I'm not worried as much about life of battery. my mvp is still on the same charge and its almost a month since last charge...)

I know its a wall of text a asking tons of questions ^^; sorry, but hello everyone and hopefully I'll fit in somewheres in these forums

I got the Nitecore Intellicharger I4. Reviews were good. Cheap. It charged a variety of my batteries (CR123, AA, 18650, 18350) almost any rechargable. I think there are nicer ones, but this one is decent.

I hear the AW batteries are the best. What do I know? I am a Newb.

If I were you (looking for 0 nic), I would order PG and VG and then flavors. Just mix your own. Order the PG/VG at the cheapest place and then order flavors from other vendors. You can't OD on nic if you aren't using any.

I actually been just buying a bottle of five pawn every other month. 30 ml lasts me anywhere form a month to a month and a half and I love their flavors. 15$ a month (abouts, since a month and a half is when I buy it) isnt bad imo for a top shelf juice. course, if I have a hankering or want a different flavor I just buy a bottle of sweet southern vapes ejuice for 6$ form my local shop

Wow. I go through a bottle of Queenside in a week. Gambit lasts only slightly longer.

yea, I just do it casually.

not to mock people who are using it as a method to quit smoking (thumbs up to all you out there doing so) but I found early on I dont eat as much (especially candy) when vaping a sweet flavor. so ironically, I save aroudn 20-30$ a month from buying candy or snacks, but I waste it on tanks and mods =P

but hey, at the very least if they discovered tomorrow that vaping turns your toes orange, your tongue green, eyes blue, and gives you a 3 foot long nose, I can drop it and never pick it up again. I'm nt dependant on the mod, I dont have any health concerns, I knw what risks *may* be involved, and choose to take them.

On the bright side, vaping also for some reason REALLY helped with my chronic bronchitus and chest pains. I think it helped to get alot of that garbage out.

Try a rebuildable dripper like one of the igos. They're cheap, simple, and do the job. The LUC looks like a decent charger, I have an efest brand charger (probably lower end than the LUC) and nothing bad has happened. I always use IMR batteries, 30 amp for rebuildables. I love my sony US18650VTC4s, and the efests I have aren't bad either. As for your last question, I don't think any 18350s are capable of anything serious but I could be wrong.

although a RBD atty would probably suit me personally better, I prefer a tank. which is why I'm kinda asking the community ^^; I prefer glass, and single coil. preferably top coil, but understandable if bottom. I'm looking into the nautilus, and dont want any more protanks.

I wish I could find more info on that panasonic, I heard it was a good battery when I ordered it 6 months ago, but cant find specs. Is it IMR? Whats its max discharge? etc. I just know its around 2250 mah and 3.7 operating voltage(?)

and yea I'm just hoping even if its 7-8 watts, it lets me use my hammer without going to single 1.5 or less coils.

The guy that owns the B&M store I go to has a nautilus and says its the best tank he's ever used. And he's not just trying to push them, he doesn't even carry them.
As for your battery, it is a NCR and the discharge voltage is 10A although I couldn't find specific information.

so should I tape the ends and ditch the battery at lowes? is it safe to use in my nemesis (despite me using it for the last 6 months =P)?

What exactly IS NRC?

and I imagine 10a is more than adequate for dual coils (IE, 2.0 ohm dual coil carto/clearos?)

 

[sherman_cj]

IF you like tanks why not try a Kayfun or one of the clones. Then you have the option of building coils as well as a tank to hold juice so you don't have to drip all the time.

I think the NCR will be fine if you're not rebuilding. It is important to use IMR batteries when using a sub one ohm atomizer but I think you'll be fine otherwise. Also, I believe 10A is plenty for the resistance of the coils in most tanks (> 1.5 or so). You should be fine with what you have but if you get into low resistances I'd highly recommend getting a 30A sony US18650VTC4 or something comparable. Let me know what you think of the nautilus if you get it, I'm kind of interested I'm just not too keen on the replacement coils being $3 a piece I go through those pretty fast.

http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...e-made-2250mah-10a-imr-battery-aw-slayer.html thats the one I got. CGR18650CH

its a IMR Hybrid cell, 2250 mAh high drain at 10A

I'd think I'll be ok til I start doing sub ohm dual coil builds =P

 

[milescadre]

so after the hard short incident, and that a *certain* person on this forum thinks I'm stupid enough to have ignored said defect in my nemesis, both my CGR18650CH battery (which I dunno if I can replace since panasonic stopped making em) and my Nemesis both are retired.

I'm half tempted to pick up a vamo v5 threaded head to make my nemesis remains still useful. though I'm not too sure if I'm in the mood to play with it.

So aside from my MVP v2, and the half dozen ego batteries, and the chammer I got, I'm looking for a good tube mod to replace my nemesis. preferably something like a Zmax, since vamo is just too tall. I'd go provari, but I cant afford to dunk 200+$ into a mod atm. my budget is more around 60$

EDIT: and this is what makes it hard; it can NOT be a telescoping mod. Dear lord I hate those things. nice and flush like my nemesis ^^
