Just make sure to properly prime and break in the Uwell coils. People have reported a .25 coils lasting 2-3 weeks running as high as 80w, and even 120w. Personally, I had no clue how to break these coils in whatsoever and went straight to my vaping wattage between 60-80w and within days it was just a bad tasting coil that needed replacement.. I wish I could tell you that breaking them in properly worked for me, but by the time I had done the research and found the youtube video on how to properly break these in, I had switched to the nickle coils and began utilizing temperature control.

That being said.. I did take some time to slowly ramp up the power and temperature for my first nickle coil trying to break it in properly. I'm going about a week on it and it still tastes great. At the same time however, I attribute some of that to Temp Control itself... it never lets my coil get hot enough to do any damage to the cotton wicking on the inside, or gunk my juice up. I mean..the wicking is so efficient that it guzzles juice as I vape.

AWSOME I NEEDED TO KNOW I WAS TOTTALY CONFUSED AT WHAT TO FIRE IT AT

I like 45 watts with the .5 coil, everyone is different naturally, but it works fine at 35-55++ watts too.

Sad you had to pay so much, hopefully you can get coils at a decent price.

Watch for sales, bought a boat load of .5 coil packs for $6.25 US during the black friday specials.

Uhhhm. I've never personally owned any e-juice that had alcohol listed an ingredient. But a quick google search led me to another ECF post that said it is used by certain juice makers to dilute VG mixtures. I can't verify that for you one way or the other. Sorry. My recommendation is to first google that question.. and if that doesn't fetch the answers you want, start a new thread and I'm sure people will gladly chime in. And if you're still in doubt after that, find a new juice vendor. ;)

Actually after poking around a few threads on ECF via googling it seems the general consensus is that alcohol is sometimes added to enhance the throat hit.. meaning you'll feel it more when you inhale. And if it is present in your juice it's such a small amount that it's not going to get you drunk or anything. That being said - it's really up to you whether you're ok with alcohol in your juice or not, as I'm not sure what kind of studies have been done.
