My sub ohming experience.

[fletcher6490]

So, I've been officially vaping for one month and loving it. I've been using a 20w istick and nautilus tank. I pre ordered the 50w istick and ordered a delta 2 thinking that sub ohming was my next step into enjoying vaping. Well, my new toys showed up yesterday so I went and got some lower nic juice and loaded up the delta. I also got an Atlantis tank so I filled her up as well. I started lung hitting the new tanks and didn't really like it. The juice tasted too warm and started getting gross and started bothering me. About two hours later I felt real sick, had a really bad headache and my urge to vape was completely gone. I felt like this all night and every time I thought about the taste of the warm juice I would almost gag. Today, I had a pounding headache all day and it took quite some time to try and vape again. So for now the sub ohm equipment is put away. Has anyone else had this happen to them?

Keep in mind that on Monday I had surgery for a hernia so I've been on pain pills and haven't really been in tip top shape.

More info please. what nic strenght did you use before? What are you using now? Wattage? Resistance?

Yes, I cut all my juice by half with pg a week or 2 ago when I started using the ego one 0.5 ohm tank/coil.
Same type symptoms as you.
I also had 400ml of diy that was just horrid at 30 watts, I now have 800ml.
Not a bad thing.

I started at 18 mg but after a week dropped down to 12. The juice I bought yesterday was 6 mg. With the delta I started at 30 watts and then went up and down from there but nothing was good. Maybe I just didn't like the juice I was using. Blah, when I think of the taste I get sick to my stomach.

I have the Atlantis / Kanger / Delta II and Arctic tanks

I went from vaping 12mg in my Kanger Aero to vaping 6 in my 1.8 build kfuns now down to 3/2/1/0 in the Sub ohm tanks

I tried 6 when I first got the atlantis no bueno got me a little jacked up :- )

I find the 3 being a real nice vape @ 9/15/20ohm range with a 30/40 ohm for short periods

I really enjoy the sub ohm tanks

I'd maybe try dialing down the wattage a little bit. I've found that sub-ohm vaping with lower-nic juices seems to get a little warm and crackly even about about 20w.

nic sick. try 3 MG at most. you will have to find a balance of flavor and vapor that suits you. thats the quest we have all been on. GL

I think 3mg should be the most you should go with sub ohming with the large lung hits you will be taking.

You know there is a difference between vaping say 1.8Ω 12 watts and 0.5Ω 40 watts.

 

[fletcher6490]

The thing is, I'm not sure that the nic physically made me sick. I feel like it was the warm flavor that totally grossed me out or something. I'll have to give it another try tomorrow and see how things go.

I do not know enough yet about sub Ω'ing, but I just wanted to say I'm glad you are doing great after your surgery but sorry you are having headaches. I personally would wait until you get off all the pain killers before you know for sure if it is the vaping. Medications can make other drugs more potent. Maybe it is doing with the nicotine. I don't know, but I sure hope they stop for you.

Keep feelin' better. . .
