It is impossible to go backward in vaping.What is your vaping journey?

[brokepainter]

I started with a cig type then went with a small ego, then larger ego to a twist. Then to a mvp chasing a warmer vape and more vapor. Now my mvp is slowly dying and I was at work and the battery died and my back was fully charged but at home. A coworker let me use his spare ego battery and while I was thankful, I can't believe how different it was. The vape was cold and it didn't hit right at all.

I don't think I could go back to that. I know I haven't had the best gear because of finances but I am sure you guys have had some great gear. Could you go back to where you started and be satisfied?

I suspect it MAY be impossible to go backward.
Which is one of the many reasons why I don't go forward.

If it wasn't for me chasing the warmer vape and a more vapor experience I would have stayed with the ego twist batteries.

While I sure as heck would not WANT to go back to more basic gear if for some reason I had to I wouldnt stop vaping. Its different for everyone I am sure but I myself could go back to using basic gear if I had to.

My wife's been vaping for over 5 years - started on cig-a-iikes, then an eGo-style and then a REO. She wound up going back to White Cloud cig-a-likes - she likes the form factor, and doesn't care about a lot of vapor. She really liked their disposable Fling Mini, which they don't make anymore. If she's happy, I'm happy.

Going from an IPV 2 Mini and Atlantis 2 to an ego c-twist would be impossible lol.

I think I don't just keep rushing forward as much anymore. Felt like a rat race. I just sit on the porch and drip.

back?

cost and sustainability are what matters to me.

heck if I ever get caught in a bind, I could vape off a car battery within an hour if I tried.

Back to disposable cigalikes? Probably not. If I HAD to, I could probably go back to rebuilt protank heads on an ego. I wouldn't want to though, and since I use mechs and rda's I don't think I'll ever have to.

If everything got banned and I had to go back to cig-a-likes and top coils, I'd just quit. I quit cigarettes with the help of vaping. I believe it would be much easier to quit vaping. Plus I've given my old stuff away.

 

[WillyZee]

never go back ... we must vape on

 

[BackDoc]

I have a collection of Zmax's and cartotanks , and I also sub ohm with a dripper,and a Subtank............different moods , different Mods.......keeps it interesting

That sort of sucks that they don't make them anymore.
I thought they were pretty good myself.

In one of my kits I keep my old SMOK vv and kanger pro tank as a back up. I decided to go down memory lane and use it for the day at work, it was different than what I'm used to now but I did use it and to answer the question, yes I could go back but I prefer where I am at now

 

[Bootiewootsy]

Yes I could go back.. There are times I still like my Evod with 1.8 silica wick... I am not a cloud chaser, but love flavor.

 

[brokepainter]

Maybe I just wanted my regular vape, but it almost felt like I wasn't doing anything. The vape felt cold and no throat hit at all. I didn't realize that the higher voltage made that big of difference but it truly does. I was glad to get home and chain vape my backup battery. Lol

I've kept all my old gear, started with an e-roll then went onto ego's. At the moment I'm happy with my i-stick but there's a Lavatube 2.5 (that I won on here) arriving shortly. Then there's the ego one that I have my eye on ... too many pretty shiny things.

 

[Rixsta]

No, certainly not, the only way I would ever go back is if I couldn't afford the juice my crazy tank drinks..but I'll be homeless before that happens

I started out with a basic eGo and 510 atomizer back in the day when those were the cream of the crop. Vaped happily on those for around 15 months and then drifted off into mechanicals. Moved to VV for awhile and then drifted back to mechanicals and have stayed there quite contentedly ever since. For vacations though, I switch back to eGo twists with a Penelope. Just easier to get through TSA(I got hassled over a couple of REOs once when flying), easier to carry around and easier to stealth with. I do have to start using them a month or two before I leave to get myself acclimated to them again, but I can do it.However, going back to a basic eGo is just not going to happen.

I also have no interest in moving forward either. I've ignored the whole VW temp control scene and don't feel I've missed a thing. But then that Evic VT came out and I really, really liked the looks of it. So I figured I'd try it out. What I've discovered with it is that I don't seem to care for temp control and higher watts. But I like it very much set at about the same watts I vape mechanicals at. It's a good thing I bought it for it's looks.

Yes well, I go back and forth and still use ego twists with various airflow modded tanks like Vivi Nova, Nautilus's and kayfuns when out and about. Definitely prefer my mechs and rda's BUT only use them when at home (keeps me from going out too much lol).
I will never again travel with anything other than an ego starter kit but may sneak a cheap cloned mech (disassembled) and topper, then buy a battery where ever I'm at.
