I have a good friend that I got started on vaping. She didn't start vaping because of my sales job, she started because she got bronchitis and it scared the crap out of her. I lent her some of my old vaping equipment until she got her own. At first, she like the nJoy npro until it just wasn't doing anything for her anymore --I don't know why. So then, because of my sales job and look of contentment on my face due to my USB PT, she got a USB PT. And she loves it --when it's working.
When she first got the PT, the switch was sticking on and she immediately burnt up 2 atomizers the first day. I figured out the problem with the switch and discovered that if the PT is held at a certain attitude, the switch won't stick. And the adapter collar cannot be screwed on too tightly. She should have sent the PT back to PS and had it fixed properly, but didn't, because didn't want to let it go so long as it was working and she was getting that excellent blast of vapor.
But now, she's burned up two atomizers, less than 10 days old --again. I tested all of her equipment, and the problem MUST be in the technique that she vapes. And the glitchy switch.
She is very, very new to vaping. I've given her lots of technique tips and maintenance lessons, but I don't live with her, so I have no idea what her habit is when she is mindlessly vaping in front of the TV.
When she last smoked, she was using 2-3 packs of analogs per day. As a vaper, she's using 6ml of juice per day. I think I read somewhere that 3ml per day is average.
I make the juice that she and I use. Maybe that's the problem. I vape 1ml per day and have ZERO problems with anything. But maybe my formula is a bad thing for a 6ml / day vaper.
This is the formula I make for her:
56% Glycerin
24% Distilled water
14% Flavor (in a PG solvent)
6% Nicotine (from Puresmoker -Fierce)
The nicotine content is about 3.5mg/ml in the finished juice. It's low because she wants it low. I think that could be a problem and that's why she blows through 6ml/day. But she assures me that it's not the nicotine that she wants. She's addicted to the feel of vaping and smoking. That, I understand perfectly because I don't use any nicotine, but couldn't face a day with a good warm cloud of tasty vapor and the action of vaping. But, that may not be the case for her.
I don't know what do to help her anymore. I'm on the verge of telling her to go back to analogs. It's so frustrating. I never have any problems and she can't touch a piece of electric equipment without creating a FUBAR scenerio. My vaping start doesn't apply to her situation because there just wasn't this kind of retail equipment back when I started.
Can anyone share some experience regarding new vaper problems, rough starts, spastic smoker syndrome, allergic to electronics.... any advice would be greatly appreciated. She should be reading this forum, but I think that whenever she touches her son's computer it breaks or something goes wrong.
