Hello all, new guy from Adrian MI. At least I think I'm new, when I registered it kind of acted like I already had account? It is possible, I belong to so many forums it is hard to keep track lol. I am pretty sure I never made an introduction post here though.
So, my name is Paul and I am from Adrian MI. I am 50 years old and disabled do to mental issues (anxiety, depression, and other mild issues. No I am not nuts or out of touch with reality lol). I honestly don't know when I started vaping, but it has probably been at least 4 or 5 years ago. When I started Ego Twists and cart tanks were high tech. I started with a cheap cigalike kit, then got an ego with a stardust tank.
I wasn't a heavy smoker, maybe a few cigs a day. I also enjoyed the occasional cigar and tried to smoke a pipe (what a pain in the .... that was). I mainly checked it out looking for something to get my girl friend at the time to quit smoking.
For me, vaping is everything I wanted from a pipe, without the hassles and health issues.
I prefer RTA and RDA's. It isn't that hard for me to re coil a tank and it is cheaper and easier than messing with coil heads. Some of the tanks I have I don't even think you can buy coils for anymore. And for what a couple coils cost for my nautilus mini I can buy enough wire and cotton to make a ton of coils.
I am also not into the low ohm stuff or fancy coils. A simple micro coil between 1.2 and 1.8 works fine for me, at around 10 to 15 watts. I messed with the low ohm stuff (if you consider .5 ohm low lol) and fancy time consuming to make coils. Just wasn't my thing, and I really didn't notice a difference honestly. Even in my drippers I just run a single coil at around 1 ohm.
My most recent toy is the Aspire Speeder because I wanted to play with temp control. Jury is still out on that one. I need to get some SS wire to try and get some better batteries.
