The inside of my windshield gets a film to it. Annoying.
Lol yep. It seems worse in the winter. At first I thought I just needed to defrost, then after cleaning it I noticed it again within a few days and realized it was vaping. Just roll the window down and you should be all good.

I vape Max vg juice now and it seems even worse. But yes, definitely worse in the winter.

    Your build res, wire gauge, wire type, coil diameter, coil style, wicking medium, wicking density, wicking style, airflow, juice type and which regulated mod you are using all contribute to how high of a wattage you can vape at. Wattage is the heat produced and is directly proportional to the amount of juice converted to vapor. I'm not asserting that we should "rate" batteries by juice consumption at a given wattage but rather that to more effectively share our battery life experiences with our mods it is necessary to include those two factors in our discussions when talking about battery life.

    So again, if someone says they get 2 days out of an 18650 but don't share with us how much juice they vaped at what wattage we gain nothing by the comment. I still stand on my original comment:p

    Understood. :)
    I still stand by my thoughts though that battery life is independent of how much or little juice is consumed and is only determined by what is drained from the cell. I think I see what you're saying though. Adding juice consumption to the discussion certainly adds to the knowledge of what happens with different setups, etc. I guess we're at an impasse. Enjoyed talking about it though!

    Question, guys. Now I was vaping looper by ANML and was getting a cool vape I switched juices and now the vape is kind of hot even though the air flow is set to highest standard. Have any of you experienced anything similar?

    Vg has a higher boiling point than pg. Perhaps your new juice has more pg than looper. Higher pg juices tend to be more spitty too.

    That's what I'm thinking because that's what it feels like, on my other mods I didn't really feel too much heat. I know looper has more VG. I was vaping cereal Killa which has a high VG concentrate and it still tasted a little hot to me. I've lowered the wattage as well. And I know temperature control coils can't really be used with the Subox

    If they organic or untreated. You probably don't want anything that has been bleached. If yours are bleached, you can boil them.
    I have no idea what they are, but they are currently in my rba and don't taste bad, did I do OK? I have no other options right now. Thank you @Katya

    You'll live. :)

    In the future, try using organic (not because it's organic but because it's untreated with bleach) cotton. Cotton balls from Walgreens or Japanese cotton pads (Labo, KGD, Shiseido) are preferable. Or cellucotton (rayon) or even silica wick (silica rope), ekowool, etc.

    I've got KGD at home and I should've grabbed some even I refilled before leaving. I knew it was going to happen, and sure enough it did. Thanks for the help, this wick on my second try is actually hitting awesome, without that weird KGD taste.

    Quick question, I'm at my brother's house and my wick ate it. Can I use regular Cotton balls?

    I don't think it is going to Kill you if you use Bleach, Non-Organic Cotton one time.

    Might give you Temporary Blindness. Perhaps a Small Seizure or Two. But it Shouldn't Kill you.

    BTW - When you get home from your Bro's House, Put a Pad of Cotton, a Couple of Coils and one of those Tiny Blue Screw Drivers into a Zip-Lock Bag. Then Put the Zip-Lock Bag in the Glove Box of you Car.

    Or get a purse, like we girls do. I have a zippered compartment in my purse with all my vaping emergency supplies--extra replaceable coils for my GS Airs, a couple of coils for my RBAs, a precut pad of cotton, a blue screwdriver, and a bottle of unflavored...

    And little scissors to trim your wick.
