hi guys, just started vaping 2 days ago and i realized need to top up the tank 2-3 times a day.. is it normal for newbie who start vaping? im guessing maybe because i chose 6mg fruity flavor without minty taste, was smoking on ice blast analog 1/2 a pack a day.. i started vaping with 12w on day 1 and now on 20w.. im using 1.2ohm kanger subtank mini. if this goes on i think my pocket will burn a big hole :( Thanks~

Normal for you is what you decide to be normal. It does not depend on newbie status (this would mean that the longer you vape the more you consume, which is not true). True is: more power/less resistance means more liquid (in the same time frame). It is you and only you who can change the criteria for how much liquid you want to consume.

I dunno if I'm right, but it seems that you might be leaking juice. Running at low watt by right shouldn't use so much juice. Unless u r like every few minutes u take a vape kind.

hmm. i vape like 5-10 times every 15-30 mins? is it consider a lot? haha.. just feel something not hitting my tingling in the throat like my ice blast analog so cant stop vaping :( only can keep on vaping to not touch those 'devil' analog :(

Hummm...seems like leaking somewhere...I vape a lot, but 1 tank 4ml last a day on my mega 1 using 1 ohm and 12w

When you start its natural to be vaping very often. Seems to me that the current juice doesn't offer you the level of "satisfaction" needed, hence you're taking more hits. Maybe try another?
hmm.. i think of that too.. haha.. actually i read up analog contains like roughly 0.8mg-1mg per stick if im not wrong? so i think my nicotine should bump up a little too to match my 8-10mg of analog nicotine i usually vape for the past years yea? :p but really hard to calculate as they say vaping will let the body absorb nicotine much slower compare to analog that can reach brain within seconds.. hope i dun get flame because i usually read half half ..:( hahahas

I think you should try 24 mg bro. Confirm only 2ml per day. Haha.

Anyway it normal lah. At the start confirm vape alot. Give it a few weeks. Should be lesser. Don't think so much, just vape on bro. Your life got no price tag.
hahaha! i dont mind keep vaping and vaping.. man.. this is addictive and shiok.. but my wallet cannot tahan.. unless i work for mr N*jib :D

At ur rate doesn't seem a lot at all and it really shouldn't drain ur juice so fast. Leaking can be seen if ur airflow holes r wet. And maybe u can try not to wipe the drip tip so often, wipe only when it starts to gurgle at the drip tip.

It seems to me your nic is too low. You're looking for throat hit. Bump up your nic content.

Don't try to equate nic content of cigarettes to vaping. There is LITTLE TO NO correlation between the two. A two pack a day smoker may find 12mg too high for him/her while a casual smoker may find it too low. You'll read conflicting advice and contradictory views here. You'll just have to understand/know your needs through trial and error.

Liquid under the drip tip is normal. Just condensation. If it's leaking, I'm sure you would notice it. I'm usually on 1.2ohms at only 12watts to 15watts. And I'm going through 8ml a day,minimum. So your juice usage is not unusual.

completely normal. i still do top ups on my subtank mini. In a day, i do 8ml normally. On a stressful day, oh myy, maybe 12-16ml.
Unlike analogs where u get that sick feelin from smokin too much, vaping gives you numb tongue. So when u reach this point or when ur feelin unwell, just stop.
Another way to be kind on the pocket is to limit urself, if ur already done one top-up, then ur done. that top-up shud last you the 2nd half of the day.

I smoke 0 or 6 MG and I've been averaging around 10ml for the first week.

It might be just the excitement of getting a new toy. I finish 1/4 tank every CS game I play Haha.

Personally I feel 6MG and 0MG doesn't have a much of a difference. The throat hit I get just isn't enough (even at 50/50). Maybe you should change to a smaller airhole so there's more resistance.

Start learning how to DIY. It's easy( I hope so) with the help of the people here.
