Hello ECF, new from NJ

[ThroatPunch]

If you M2L (mouth-2-lung) inhale, vs direct lung inhale, I often recommend an eleaf istick 30 watt or innokin CoolFire 4 (40 watt) with an Aspire Mini Nautillus or eLeaf GS Air M (tanks). Videos below.

eLeaf iStick 30 Watt
Innokin Coolfire 4
Aspire Nautilus Mini
eLeaf GS Air M Tank

Picture of the Mini Nautilus on the iStick 30 watt

I think I'm about to buy a new eLeaf iStick 50 for it's potential in my new found desire to cloud chase LOL, thank you, great call on eleaf from what I've read here and on seller sites. MFS .com seems to be a good go to site too for online purchasing.

Now for tank research probably going to stay away from sub-o'in for now but we'll see how long that lasts

Those two mentioned tanks seem awesome. Checking them out asap.

Ya on I like mad vapes on 22 in Green Brook. Also depending on where you are in Essex in Union on 22 their is a head shop/vape shop right In the middle of 22 on top of the pawn shop. I'm by New Brunswick so also Gorilla vapes on rt1 and probably a bunch more in Essex Google it bro you find them Mad Vapes has awesome prices almost competitive with Internet prices.

I'll definitely keep those in mind.. As I go along with this I'm noticing more and more shops and people that vape all kinds of eGos and box mods.. lots to choose from.. little overwhelming but I'm sure I'll find my balance.

I'm planning on buying hardware online and juice at shops.. Hit up this new place for the 1st time last night in passing and kinda got turned off by the dude thinking I'm totally new (which I am, don't get me wrong, but compared to last week I know a ton more, like what I'm actually looking at and it's intended function LOL) and tried to push a Kanger mini protank 3 BDC for 21$... @MFS, only like 9$.. And I know, shipping, shop mark up, product in hand etc but still, more then 2x what it's worth I'd hate to go and pay 100$ for a boxmod that's MSRP for 40-50$ but that's why I'm on ECF and talking with you guys

Congrats! That's a perfect beginner setup. I order vape stuffs from all over the net, I try to spread my business thin so everybody gets a shot at taking my money. There is plenty to learn here online so stick around and don't be shy to ask when you need help. Seems like you're picking up our lingo pretty quickly, so that's a good thing. I'm an NJ local as well by the way. Shame you didn't start a bit earlier and visit Vape Expo NJ it was a blast and a huge inspiration and reassurance that vaping is a community I want to be a part of. There is another expo on October 24th, let me know if you want me to grab details and I'll send them by. At Vape Expo NJ I walked away with a few hundred ml's of juice, stickers, expo bags, prizes, a skateboard, etc. I won all that for a $10 entry fee. The expo paid for itself and lots of vendors profit was going toward protecting the industry from big brother (our government).

I've already out grown it! Learning new lingo everyday and I'm still off analogs! (thank goodness, feeling SO much better health wise) I find myself vaping through out the day, bunch of solid puffs, put it away for 30 mins, back at it.. Only finding myself refilling my EVOD 2x maybe 3x if the GF hits it some. Probably at best, 5mL? Chain vaping yet? haha

The battery is what gets me.. not enough power to last me the whole day.. Hopefully the iStick 50w with 4400 MaH helps with that.. Keep the spinner as a back up.. If you have info on the expo in October, please share

Thanks again guys, sorry for delay in reply, doing too much research, practically obsessed hahaha

Random question.. Is it safe and practical to charge my vision spinner overnight? Will it over charge? Diminish battery life and capacity? Shuts "off" or stops charging when full?

Check out ECF Forum Suppliers

The past year I've been ordering mostly from:

• Sweet Vapes
• My Freedom Smokes
• My Vapor Store
• Wet Vapes
• Ahlusion & eJuices -- for e-liquid/juice

I often use vapeCrawler to see who has the best pricing. If I only want to see suppliers from the USA I make sure USA is "green" and all the others are "gray". If you go down to the very bottom of the page you can see all the vaping websites vapeCrawler searches.

Statistically speaking most battery incidents occur while charging. Here are some safety tips:

1. Don’t leave a charging e-cig unattended; if something goes wrong, you need to be there to deal with it.
2. Overnight charging is asking for trouble; unplug the charger when the battery is powered up.
3. Charge away from sources of heat or intense cold, and keep it away from flammable items and children!
4. Use the manufacturer’s charger where possible, but if not, research threading and power rating carefully to ensure compatibility.

Yo did you buy a Eleaf already or are you still looking around

I did buy one.. It's on its way... utt-ohh.. why..? lol

 

[Hank813]

Only because if you didn't buy a Eleaf 50watt you might want to look at the ipv d2 or Sigelei 75 watt box mod only because if like you said your out growing your first setup already both of the 2 mods I just mentioned are sweet. But both have external batteries which for me is a huge plus simply because I can have extra batteries and pop one in whenever and wherever I'm at instead of a Mod with a internal battery. Don't let me confuse you there are advantages to both but I prefer external batteries all day. But that's just me. Not that their is anything wrong with the Eleaf but both of the mods I mentioned go up to 75watts do temperature control and you can find them for $50 to $70 bucks. I think you would like either one of those better and really won't out grow them as easy if you want a sweet mod I really like my Yihi SX350J M CLASS. But know your spending $200 bucks but that is my favorite mod out without looking at custom mods.

Sweet.. Had a feeling those were the correct actions to take before I asked.. Very similar guidelines for my other addiction, RC planes lol, those use Lipo, high discharge etc batteries.. Thought with an e-cig it might be different because it's enclosed and not subject to the abuse RC airplanes are.

Thanks again!

 

[Hank813]

How much did you pay for it and not that their is anything wrong with it just throwing it out there for you to have something to think about. But that's up to you. I just know what I would recommend to a friend in your shoes.

Ahh I see.. Phew... Well, honestly, I was seeking something with internal batteries. If I'm not mistaken, the 18650s and 18250s? require a different charger and you're left with more things to lose (for me, at least). And I also do construction work so keeping lose batteries in my pocket could be bad news for me lol.. I did come across most of those mods you mentioned above and they look like quality pieces, definitely worth a 2nd look, once I move up. I read and watched a lot of reviews on different mod boxes and for its size and power the iStick 50 seemed to be best option... for now...

If anything, it's just another 70$ or w/e, and for me, that's just a light week on analogs... That's my way of rationalizing my new e-cig purchases hahaha....

 

[ThroatPunch]

Thanks Hank, you're a good guy! I paid 45$ for it on MFS. I also got an Natilus Mini and 30 mL of juice, like 100$ total but I got 15% off for 1st time purchase. At the end I spent 94$, including 2-day shipping, so it should be here tomorrow or Saturday.

 

[Hank813]

Ya I do construction to so I understand where your coming from. I know I guy that was relatively new to vaping went to a vape shop what they sold him a Simple mechanical mod. Which if you're not familiar with has direct contact with the battery and they sold him a Atlantis tank with it. Any way long story short battery vented in his pocket and he's just lucky it didn't completely blow up.

Ya that was pretty much like one of my starter kits I had to bro. I liked the Nautilus tanks but like you said you going to be surprised how quick you out grow things and if you already like blowing clouds your hooked and you will see it easily become a expensive hobby but so much better than smoking.

[ThroatPunch]

Nice nice.. what kind of construction? And I looked into mechmods.. not for me.. not yet at least lol... And yeah, keeping batteries in your pocket is not so great.. especially if you have metal things like keys and coins.. learned the hard way with 9V batteries and some coins as a kid.

and Yeah eff analogs.. I was around my friend the other day, smokes newports.. almost puked.. I'm about 12 days off analogs now, so far so good.

 

[Hank813]

Not just batteries bro he had a mech mod with a tank attached to it in his pocket. Plus the SIMPLE mod is the name of the actual mod it has no safety so it was just a little pressure on the button that caused it. I always keep my batteries in a battery case but this poor guy had no one explain to him about battery safety I actually told the guy who sold it to him and the owner of the store off and that they have no business even selling the merchandise that they are selling to people because they were simply idiot's.

Damn.. Vape shops should have a DOs and DONTs of vaping pamphlet for new people lol.. Id read it.. And a battery case, great idea haha I should look into that and probably a case for my mod.. I'm sure leaf dust will taste amazing in my mod come this fall (landscaping side job) haha
