i lost all control

[darkwitch]

i am sooooo addicted to my ecigs, i have spent over 500.00 in the last 2 1/2 mo trying to find that sweet spot. i cant stand my self anymore, im out of control. i have the 510 kits, egos. a blu premium 100 and i just bought a 801 kit. i have lots of differant cartos, extra batteries, tank stuff, pccs and lots of assesories. with all that said, im still smoking analogs.

today i got in the mail 801/510 adapters so i can use my 510 cartos on my 801 pen style, they wouldnt work at all. i also got some 801 cartos for my 810 penstyle, the cartos and the battery heated up really hot so i dont want to use them. once again ive wasted more money. i need to get control of myself and get back to the basics and just stick to my ego.

Hey DW, are you close to the north metro of the cities by chance??
Just trying to help - There is a shop there that could help.

Don't be too hard on yourself. For some, it takes time to eliminate the analogs. At least you have cut down - right?

Good luck with the 801. I started out with those 3 years ago. The quality on those is very hit and miss. Batteries have a short life and some of mine didn't charge fully and only lasted about 10 minutes at times. Very frustrating when you leave the house with a freshly charged battery to get halfway to where you're going and have it go dead. I always thought they were on their way out the door, I guess I may have been wrong lol

Get a provari and be done with it I have only bought juice, cartomizers and a few tanks since I got one. Im now finding that no company has any juice I like except one so ill be getting into DIY juice for fun.

I have to agree with the above poster except for that I'd just say "Get a good e-cig" A provari is probably worth it if you can afford one. But spending that kind of money on cheapy cigs is like buying a new hyundai every month for 3 years instead of a mercedes that would last you for 10. I've got a box of new 801 parts I've contemplated selling a few times, but decided I didn't want to put that kind of frustration into somebody else's hands

The provari already has paid for itself in a month of quiting cigs, I was smoking about 1 1/2 packs a day @ $8 a pack. I was spending close to 300 a month on cigs when I broke it down.

thanks for your answers, i live in maple lake about 50 miles west of mpls. no vape shops around here. very dissapointed in the 801, i can put juice in the filter and get a couple good hits, then there is no taste. that was a waste of money. the problem is that when i get the kit, i order the extras to got with it. i quess that kit will go in the land of no return box with my 510 that i dont use. i need to wait a while to recoop some money, but i think ill get a provari. thanks all

If you can make a trip to Anoka, MN there is an e Cig shop there. The owner is very knowledgeable and extremely helpful. For the amount you have invested I am certain he can help. He has some very high quality 3.7 volt units that might suit your tastes or even a 5 volt (for less than the ProVari). If you want more info PM me and I will send you more information.

Don't feel bad. A year ago I was introduced to vaping, and spent lots of money on it only to go back to analogs. I came back to vaping a month ago. You will find your sweet spot, and you will settle in. Keep up with people in the forum for support. That really helps!

Maybe your sweet spot cannot be found with slim ecigs. If you want bigger drags and more heat with more hit, you need to go to the fat battery models so you can use LR cartos and stuff.

And you are set on slims, you don't own the strongest. The strongest is KR808D-1 (3.7v) manuals (to get the best hit) and particular because their typical cartos are 2.5 (V4L WOW cartos) to 2.6 ohms (Bloogplanet/SmokelessImagecartos), which is at the hot end of what a slim ecig can use. I use the V4L single logo manuals for their custom 10+ second cutoff (the other KR8 slim models have a 5-second cutoff which is a bit short with manuals where you want to press the button is 1-2 seconds earlier than the start of your drag so nice vapor is waiting)

And what did you try on Ego? Did you try Boge 2 ohm cartos which are what are used the most on fat-battery 510-threaded devices?

And once you have a device that feels the way you want, then the search is for juices, not devices. I prefer high PG juices like 80PG/20VG that let the flavor and nicotine hit through well and work easily in cartomizers.
