New to vaping, have some questions

[Greg095]

Hey everyone,

My wife just surprised me with a Kangertech Aerotank and a 1300 Mah eGo-c Twist battery. So far I am enjoying it. However my concern is It doesn't produce near the vapor that I have seen on video reviewing the same Cleromizer. Any thoughts?

Thanks in advance,
Greg

For more vapor, you need more VG, and a higher setting on the Twist; it's suggested that you go up slowly, till you find a setting that suits you. If you get a burnt taste, back up again till the flavor is good.

Welcome to vaping, and the ECF!!

There are several things that can affect vapor production.

1) Style of inhale is very important, you want to take a longer, slower, softer inhale. More like breathing, less like smoking.
2) juice ratio, more vg will produce more vapor but too much for some set up can hinder the ability to wick fast enough and will result in dry hits.
3) voltage used, higher voltage will cause the coil to heat up faster and hotter. That will vaporize more of the juice faster, but just like the vg too high a voltage can result in dry hits.
4) lighting is one trick some you tube reviewers use, more light in the background will make the vapor appear to be more dense and give a bigger fluffy look. try vaping late at night with minimal light and it looks like nothing is there.
5) moisture or humidity is another, I live by the everglades so pretty humid and my vapor production is double here, when in NY visiting family during the winter it is a lot less. get out the shower and take a couple of puffs, you will be surprised at the difference.
6) hydration is key also, drink plenty of water. just like the shower, drink a cup of water and take a few puffs, it should be better then before drinking that cup of water.

This is all great info. I will look into all of this. I was just surprised after I filled with a new juice last night, the performance seemed to plummet. But it sounds like the juice could have something to do with that. Also put in a new coil when I changed juice. I just hope I didn't screw it up somehow.

Well, got it fixed. Stopped by a local vapor store after work Friday. I had been laying my set up on its side, and juice had slowly dripped into the adjustable air controle valve. They explained how to clear it out and to store the tank upright. Haven't had any issues since. If ever in Salt Lake, visit Vapor Craziness in Riverton. Amazing customer service.
