Just had a breakthrough!

[badnam]

I am new to vaping, and have watched alot of videos on ecig reviews, every time i saw these videos the vapor that was being produced was not like mine.

I just figured it out today what i was doing wrong, I know to vape you have to take a slow, long drag, which is what i was doing, but like an analog cig, drawing hard and slow, but today i took a drag of soft and slow, completely different vapor production.

TH is much better, vapor is better, sense of taste is better.

vaping Rocks!

Vaping does rock! I wish that the ecigs would come with a quick DVD, a "how to" guide basically.

Yep. Suck too hard and you pull the vapor off the heating element before it gets warm and dense, plus you're pulling more fresh air over the heating element so you're actually fighting what it's trying to do.

It is awesome though when you first learn to get it just right

someone should start a thread on how to vape properly.

You just did!

 

[classwife]

Yep...the slow draws make much better vapor !

Also breathing in through your nose while vaping can give ou better taste

I tried the nose, not as much, made me sneeze, is that normal.

This thread just helped me with my Epipe, i have been having a problem with the vapour production on it, but a slower draw seems to be the trick. Thanks.

It seems some people still use their cheeks to pull the vapor into their mouths and then inhale it into their lungs, like most smokers do. The switch to vaping was easy for me, because I never smoked that way. From my very first cigarette it just felt natural to inhale it straight into my lungs while dragging, and then suck any remainder in after it. The only time I'd pull it into my mouth first was when I was going to French inhale. I know the "normal" smoking method has been a hindrance for my brother-in-law when it comes to vaping. He wasn't feeling very satisfied, and he wasn't getting much vapor, so I reminded him of the way I always smoked (my friends and family always thought I smoked "weird"), and suggested he try it. Of course, it worked much better for him, but a couple of drags later, he was right back to the old technique. It's hard to give up a habit of many years! I've been trying to remind him of this and help him with a few other things (cleaning his atties, refilling his carts, suggesting a new PV altogether), because he hasn't been able to make a complete break from smoking yet, and I feel bad for him because he's the one who got me into vaping in the first place! I just hope everyone who has these difficulties will stay strong and not give up, because there WILL be some combination of PV, technique and juice that will just work for you! I was fortunate enough to find mine fairly early in my vaping experience, and for that, I thank all you great folks here at ECF!

Hey, you're right....slow's the way to go!!

And you don't feel like you're sucking on an ultra light.

Glad you got it down Badnam! Slow and easy

Just think of it this way, who cares how much money you "waste" trying to find a combo that works for you. Your health will be much better when you find something that allows you to quit analogs; there's no putting a price on that.

I could speak volumes on my switch from 2.0 regular Joye atomizers to 1.5 Joye LR's, but for sake of this thread the LR's let you draw a little faster and it gives resistance closer to an analog with better results! Love the LRs on my eGo.
