In Portland - My Story

[pdxtechdoctor]

I just started vaping in early Feb. Smoked for 20 years, quit for 3 and started back up a year ago. I really started vaping to find a way to save money when times are lean...

First purchase V2 Cigs.. I am a bargain hunter and searched around for a few days and all I found at the time where the vaping items that looked like analog cigs. Out of what I found they were going to be the most economical and they sold liquid and some clearomizers..

I think I used them about 2 weeks and then came across the one vendor here in Portland that sells more advance stuff (NicStation) and bought an eGo Twist and a couple of their clearomizers CE2 or T2 type I believe... I really hated the clearomizers - Always tasted burnt after 2 or 3 days and they sold the heads for $4 each... I had to find another way...

That's when I found this whole new world of ecigs..

So I bought and eVod with some extra heads.. Started looking at the reviews and videos on how to get the most out of them..

Then I found ecblends purchased a bunch a flavors.. Now I needed a way to sample them without filling up my eVod..

This week I bought 2 phoenix clones, wire, wick and a 306 atomizer...

Not really impressed with the 306, but I really like the phoenix RBAs. It took me a couple tries to get a coil built with the right resistance, but it vapes great! I've even rebuilt a couple of my evod heads already..

Looking for some locals to see what they are using and sample what juices they are using...

Thanks! I've got to stop buying stuff but at least I figure it's about the same as buying cigs right now and will get cheaper as I setting in on my vaping style..


I only have 1 ego battery right now so I really need a backup in case it dies. I have a 1000mah twist and it almost always lasts me the day... I was going to get a mini just for a backup, but now that I have some different atomizers, the idea of variable wattage is really appealing to me so I'm not having to remember to change my twist voltage depending on what I put on...

So now I am going to get a Vamo and just use my twist as the backup... And I really want a ProTank for my all day vape...
