My venturing into sub ohming

[xDarkRelic]

So I just got in a Istick50w and subtank mini (thanks to dbrands for the suggestion) and I'm having a hard time.

I'm currently on 15w and I'm basically choking myself out. I find it hard to inhale for more than a couple of seconds without it being too warm. I'm also worried about the safety at vaping at a too low of watt. Is that even a thing? Lol

Anyways, I'm using the stock occ coils with the subtank, which is .5. Are there any tips for a lung inhale? It seems like this coil is so open its hard not too. I haven't coughed like this with any other mods (aspire cf vv+).

Any tips? Tricks? Help is much appreciated

Inhale quickly. Keeps the air moving so it doesn't get so hot.

See, that's completely surprising to me. On the nautilus mini you could barely inhale so fast because you'd get juice popping back in your mouth real quick.

I guess I'll have to learn some new habits lol.

If you are used to using the Nautilus Mini, as I was, you should expect to cough when transitioning over to any of the Subtanks. Maybe you shouldn't force yourself to inhale longer than a couple of seconds?

I'm inhaling at all of 2.5 seconds haha. I'm trying though. Also, is anyone has experience with the istick50w, is the button normally need a decent amount of force to fire? If I let off just a tad too much it stops firing.

Sorry for so many questions, I feel like I'm new again.

How do you have the airflow set? At .5 you need lots of airflow to keep it cool. Open it up. Keep in mind the type of juice and the nic level play a big part at .5 also. If you normally do say 12mg then 3 feels about the same at .5.

The mini comes with a 1.2 ohm coil head too. If the 0.5 is a fail for you
just switch it out. Cheers.

What mg nic are you using?

What mg nic are you using?

thats exactly what I was wondering, because hes only running 15 watts, 0.5ohms and 15 watts is only 2.7 volts. That shouldnt be hot, it has to be that your nic is high. 0.5 ohms at 15watts is like baby subohm vaping and you shouldnt even feel heat. If you are running high PG high MG nic though, you will feel like your throat is burning, but that would be due to the juice and not actual 'heat' burn.

I was new to sub ohming with the same set up and it took me a day to get my direct lung inhales correct.

Now I use 50/50 6mg juice
0.5ohm coil
Air Flow wide open
24watts on the istick 50w
Deep and fast inhale for about 5 seconds

Not hot at all and wow the office is in a fog of vapour if I chain vape !!
