New to the ecf!

Hey guys! Just wanted to write a little post about my journey into the ecig world... I have been using V2 cigs for the past year & 1/2. For the majority of that time I was using the pre filled carts from their site... At times the product was inconsistent & was ready to put vaping to rest (not so fast)...

I began to research & found out that filling your own carts was a much better alternative, both cost & production. About a week ago I purchased some halocig e-juice... Just ordered (today) some same sample packs from ec-blend & also some Liquimax (clearos) from V2... Anticipating arrival!

Today I was trying to fill the PFC's using the condom method & kept getting the burnt taste (not sure what I was doing wrong)... I switched to the drip method & got better results....

ANY recommendations would be very helpful - juice/ carts/ batteries / how to fill PFC's/ Clear carts (dif vendors)... Really any info is much appreciated... Thanks again!

Since i would not call you just starting out, the choice is really up to you on how deep down the rabbit hole you wish to travel.. I have only been at this for under a month and i currently have 2 Volt X2 batteries.. one is a 650mah and one is a 900mah (manual) , a segelei (not sure how it is spelled again.. sorry) Zmax mod. and a Ego Twist 1000mah. we currently use Smoktech Dual Coil Tanks on the Zmax and the Ego, on the Volt X2's we use Stardust type clearo's and have had nothing but great success.. as for the juices.. i dont recommend what kind, but i can tell you that Alice in vapeland / Kick Bass Vapors / Vaporcast (vaporcaststore.com) are all very good to order from. Aside from what i have written.. welcome to ECF and enjoy your stay.

Hi and welcome. :0

I went to clearos and tanks and I love them.

I have seen the bigger batts... How are they working for you? Better then the normal 808 batts??

 

[bdeef]

I can't wait to try clear carts... Hopefully I get better flavor & vapor...

My Zmax has a 2200 mah battery and i can heavily vape on it for a full day and a half without charging that battery.. the smaller batteries will drain faster depending on your vaping habits. I love my mod.. and i find that with the right juice and voltage combination i get a huge amount of vapor.. which is what helped me stop the stinky sticks..

 

[wmacy1028]

the Ego is a great battery to start with.. get one of those and then put a good carto tank on there or even a stardust style clearomizer.. you will be happy.. in my opinion.. but before you do anything.. always research.. always.. for liquid.. my first one that i fell in love with was called 555 from smokeless image.. but taste is subjective to the person using it.. thats why i dont like recommending a juice to anyone..

I was looking @ the volcano inferno- is that the same type of deal?

Boba's Bounty from Alien Visions is one of the most popular tobacco flavored e-liquids. So if you're looking for a tobacco e-liquid you should definitely check it out!

I use a Volcano Inferno. It uses an eGo style battery. If you get the kit it comes with a 650 and 900mah batteries a 4ml tube tank and 6 1.5ohm duel coil cartomizers. I love my Inferno.

@silentscreams that's awesome! It is much more powerful then my v2, exactly what I'm looking for... So the set up: just need the tank/carto/ drip tip? How is the vapor production & flavor... It must be so much better then what I'm using now... Which batt do you like better? I NEED ONE ASAP!

 

[bdeef]

Also it's a lot easier to fill, right?

 

[bdeef]

Also, any leaking?

The best place I found so far to discover various devices and tanks, droppers, etc is do a search in youtube for pbusardo and grimmgreen. They have some excellent reviews!

 

[bdeef]

Pbusardo is the man! So funny!

Pbusardo is the man! So funny!

If your looking for an eGo batt, I would recommend variable voltage, like the eGo Twist, KGO or Vision Spinner.
What you're getting into, is the eGo and 510 threaded connector on your battery which introduces you to a plethora of options for tanks.

Here's pBusardo's clearo shootout:

Volts on the batteries... V2= 4.2 volts(250 mah) volcano inferno= 3.7 volts(900 mah)... From what I've heard te vapor production is much better on the inferno... Doesn't the voltage help how much vapor you getting? If so do you think that's a down grade?

So you like where you can change the volts? What do the volts do exactly?
