Ok So I Am somewhat new to vaping. Ive been at it for 2 months Switching between Cigarettes and My Ego-T. Recently Its just not doing it for me. It works but I just don't feel like its enough for me...

Im in the Market for a New Ecig. Something Stronger then My Variable Voltage Ego. And stronger then 4.8.

I want more Cloud and throat hit and Some better Flavor.

I use a Bouge Carto & smoketech DCT. i also have Tried the Atomizers that you Drip into..

And i throw it on Full Power and it just dosent seem to be what i want.


Ive been looking at Mods...something Stronger and more Power..

I got around $100 Burning a Hole in My Pocket.

I would hope that i can Stick with the 510 stuff so i Don't have to switch over.

What would be a good mod Or device to Get me in the right Directions.?



Also im located in Las Vegas.. any good shops that you know of here? im kinda new to the area.

Most Advanced Mods have the 510 connection, so you're good there. Have you tried higher nicotine juices? What nic level are you vaping now? Also, higher PG juices will have more throat hit and flavor but less vapor.

I just got an eVic about a week ago and am really liking it. You can get those for around $100.

There should be lots of good vape shops (B&M) around you. Check out this link.

This may not be the popular idea but I would recommend you keep browsing the forum to learn more about atomizers. I think your problem may be in your "delivery method" more than your battery. In the meantime I would suggest getting some lower ohm cartomizers or dripping atty's, whichever you prefer. 1.5-2 ohm. Look for some e-liquid that you really like also. There are a lot of different factors that go into your search for the "perfect vape". Read about it, learn about it, and then start spending.

My Nicotine level Is 24


I don't understand why low resistance what will that do?


How much are Vamo's?

Low resistance will produce more vapor at a lower voltage. Watts = Voltage squared/resistance. A 2 ohm coil at 4 volts gives you 8 watts, a 3 ohm coil at 4 volts gives you 5.33 watts. Higher watts produce more vapor. The down side is that higher watts drain your battery charge quicker.

This is a good deal also from Fasttech, $51.42 Vamo-Vivi Voltage Adjustable E-Cigarette Battery Compartment Set - with Nitecore I2 US battery charger/charger cable/2*Panasonic 18650 batteries at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping If you go with any of the Fasttech deals, try the code from ........, might save you a couple of dollars.

It's not necessarily your eGo's limitation of 4.8V that is the problem. 4.8V is enough to "pop" many a coil. Your throwing your money at the wrong thing before trying out the obvious/cheaper things first, and it's more likely to steer you away from a successful transition after being disappointed.

Firstly, try making sure your getting the proper nicotine strength you require for your habit. This should usually be more than what is in your typical cigarette.

Try investing in a Low Resistance cartomizer or atomizer. Something less than 2.0 Ohms. This will give you a MUCH warmer, thicker vape. A quicker, more massive and impactful hit. Anything above 4.8V on something with less than 1.5 Ohms of resistance will most likely taste like burnt "something."

Get a single coil Low Resistance XL cartomizer for your DCT, and load the tank up with some juice with at least 24mg of nicotine or higher. If that doesn't float your socks off, I dunno what else will.

In my opinion, higher variable voltage PV's should be more for people wanting to experiment more with flavor production of juices. It gives you the ability to use a higher resistance atomizer so you can tweak both hotter AND more importantly; cooler. Compare that to using a lower resistance atomizer, where you basically have the option of vaping either warm, hot, hotter, or burnt inhaled death immediately followed by a blown coil.

I think people are getting too obsessed with "I need MORE POWER! That's the problem!" It's not a car engine. I've watched some videos by well known YouTube e-cig bloggers just completely F' things up. "Well, I've got this 1.0 Ohm cartomizer, and I'm just gonna crank my provari up to 6 Volts and.... mmmm that's good vaping!" Ummm... no sir. If he suggested an item off of a menu at a restaurant, I would not only avoid that item; I'd avoid the restaurant! Totally charming and entertaining YouTube blogger, but full of some wary mis-advice.

In summary;

Buy a higher nicotine content juice. (5 bucks for a bottle of some good 24mg stuff?)

Buy a low resistance cartomizer/atomizer. (8 bucks for a five pack of Boges?)

4.8V is more than enough to get to the "extreme" of vaping. (keep yer damn twist, it works!)

Throwing money at large, expensive, shiny phallic shaped PV's should not be your first course of troubleshooting when you have a perfectly good, transportable battery already.

that price is ideal but you still have to buy batteries and a charger. Most I see advise to buy 2 sets of batteries. I think you can buy the whole kit for 51 dollars somewhere with free shipping.

I am still a little skeptical that you cant find a good throat hit with what you have. I have bought some juices with a choker TH running 3.7v Are you sure it's not just the 100 bucks burning a whole in your pocket lol. If so that's cool too.
