How do you pull these things?

I'm trying to figure out what way to pull on my Tornado seems to be. The two real options are "pull only with the mouth, inhale it all after" or "pull with mouth and inhale at the same time." The first one feels strange, given the extended length of pulls you have to make on e-cigs, whereas the 2nd one occasionally feels like I am swallowing a gerbil that has been lit on fire.

What do you guys do?

Drag on it just like you would a cigarette, only slower and more steady and filling up your mouth with vapor. Then, you will suck it down with some clean air (like you would a cig). In my opinion, you get a better throat hit that way and you don't get a crispy/sore throat from direct inhaling. Plus I think you can enjoy flavors better.

I hope this helps!!

You have to forget the way you used to inhale analogs. A slow and steady inhale into your mouth first, then into your lungs. I also have a tornado and for me thats the best way without choking to death if you just inhale straight into your lungs. Keep in mind different juices have different strengths and weaker ones sometimes may require you to sorta inhale into your mouth first and while you're taking that slow steady drag, you could intermittently open your throat and inhale a small amount at a time.
I'm brand new at this myself and believe me you will catch on real quick. Good Luck!

You hit it on the dot for both types of inhales.

My solution: Get a couple of LR atty's. Use the mouth inhale method, but since it's with an LR atty, you only have to inhale a 4 second mouthful to get a very generous amount of vapor. A direct inhale with an LR atty is way too hot for me.

Whoa, whoa, way to confuse the newbie... LR attys.. Don't assume a newbie knows what that is. Looking at that, you don't automatically think Low Res unless you know what that is.

I do. Posted a thread on them that is still kicking around somewhere. I plan on getting some, but not quite yet. Want to test out the ZFM Carts with a regular atty before I switch to LR.

smoke it like a regular cig. draw to the mouth, inhale all at once. With the e-cig, there is a "new art" to the draw/inhale method.. since a good drag takes like 4 seconds... so just keep working at it and you'll get it.

I'm finding I can't maintain the mouth only draw long enough, and the direct lung pull starts to burn when the vapor starts making it's way past the throat. So I am doing a slow (much slower than I used to with an analog) mouth pull, then a short lung "tug" not long enough to burn, then inhale. So a combination of both....at least until I find a way to get a bigger hit from a shorter pull alone (high volt, low res, whatever). So far I am only using stock atty and voltage.
