New Vaper, new member

[Angelo Grieco]

Hi all,
After lurking (I think that's the term used when you read a forum but you don't post) for a couple of weeks here I am.

As from the subject, I'm a new vaper, 2 weeks (and counting... I even have my banner already... how do you add it to your signature?)

Anyway getting serius...
I've started with a starter kit Jenson S-900 Series and a clearomizer (19.90 at the corner shop), I've then moved to a Vision Spinner II + Aspire Nautilus and today I've received my PV (Vamo V5) and my first RDA (smok Scar) (and all the rest, Ohm meter, Kanthal 32AWG, cotton, 2 Sony 30A batteries and something else )

As I said I'm reading infos here and there and, honestly, I now feel scared to try out my new toys... all this math you talk about, ohm law, volts, watts... It's a bit confusing. Hence my first question:

How do I know I'm vaping safe?

Thanks all,
read you soon

Good morning and welcome to ECF
Pretty sure you're safe from all that until/unless you get into mechanicals

Welcome to the ECF boards, Angelo.

You appear to be using a regulated device. It has built-in safety measures.

I just got a V5 and been looking at charts like this for guidance. From what I see all charts should be the about the same, since its all configured by a mathematical formula.

Well. It's like this. As long as you are keeping your ohm build from 1.2-3.0. And not sub-ohming. You will be ok.

First deal is. Building a coil. You will do this probably 40 times before you really, and I mean really get the hang of it. You will get it tho

As a beginner. You can not beat the Vape quality and flavor that the new nautilus BVC coil provides. So make sure you keep that tank full of your favorite flavor. And use the build able as a tinkering toy for learning. And all of that comes with time and experience

Welcome to the forum. Plenty of information. As well as thousands of awesome people to help with any question you might have. And remember. YouTube tutorial videos are your friend.

Thank you all guys,
after reading I wouldn't have died I gave it a try yesterday. Did a dual coil build on my Scar, 32AWG Kanthal, 8wraps each, came out 1.4/1.5... I was quite impressed at the beginning but after a while I started getting dry hits. I think I've stuffed one of the coils (the first one) too much and the juice in the middle just don't burn, while the cotton around does once it starts to get dry. As a result I'm vaping on my nautilus today (and I hate it, I have the 5ml with BDC and the flavour is just... WRONG!)

Tonight, according to the spare time I'll have, I'll try a new build on the RDA and, thanks to RiP Trippers I'll try to re-build a nautilus head, the BVC way...

I'll let you know...
