Newbie at vaping, help!

[TinsQuD]

Greetings fellow vapers!
I've been using The Baby Beast TFV8 BABY with H-Priv 220w by smok and I'm feeling I'm not getting everything from it. I'm not familiar with set ups nor liquids to use. I've enjoyed using following liquids
Cheeky V
Nuclear Plusion

both 6mg. I don't get thick clouds I've also tried some 3mg and 0mg and the latter is not for me.

Basicly I'm asking some guidance to set my setting properly.

I'm feeling I'm not getting everything from it

Hi and welcome.
A. Could you please define what you mean by "not getting everything from it"?
B. Tell us which coil you are using in the BB, How many watts are you feeding it? How do you have the airflow adjusted? Are you trying to MTL it?
C. Which batteries have you chosen to use?
D. Is this your first foray into vaping or did you have a set up before? What was it?

Cheers
I

not getting anything from it as in ....? not enough nicotine or not enough vapor for you?
if it's cloud chasing that you want, a higher vg juice would help...
if it's nic then raise the nic levels
if it's throat hit then a higher pg juice

 

[Izan]

Once the coil (Q2?)is broken in (tank or so) it should do fairly well at about 60W. If your wicking keeps up, open the AF a bit more and huff it. Just understand that you are at the top of that (Q2) coil's range.
If you want even more, you will need to drop your resistance/bump wattage. Do you have the T-8 coil as part of your kit?

Not enough vapor. Nicotine is just fine at 3mg. Differences between PG/VG?

 

[Shadav]

pg tends to give more of a throat hit whereas vg tends to give more vapor

If you want more vapor then a 'max vg' juice is what you want.. it stands for vegetable glycerin and is one of the main components of e juice. Pg stands for propylene glycol and is the other main component - pg carries flavors better and also gives you throat hit. Vg gives you a higher vapor production. You will want to buy your juice somewhere that you can get a max vg juice and perhaps an extra shot of flavoring.

Is there some sort of specific settings for max VG liquids? Does nicotine quantity affect flavor and cloud? I'm eager to learn everything!
Thank you for answering informationally <3

 

[Shadav]

eliquid is made up of pg, vg and then maybe nicotine and flavoring
for better vapor you'll want something 70% or higher vg and then whatever nic level and flavor you might like.

Welcome and glad you joined. Might try vaping pure VG. It may give you an idea of what a maximum cloud looks like.

There aren't any specific settings for high VG. You do tend to need coils with bigger juice flow holes, but anything made for the Baby Beast will be fine.

Nicotine does affect flavour but it doesn't affect clouds. I don't know how to describe the flavour of nicotine. It can be a bit peppery, but isn't always. I find the juice flavouring gets stronger as you lower the nicotine.

Welcome @TinsQuD and I hope you enjoy your stay!

I vape my Baby Beast with the X4 Quad coils at 30 watts or less. Clouds so think I had e-Liqiod drops on my monitor!

 

[TinsQuD]

Does someone know a good website where one can order quality liquids? I've been normally ordering liquids from ecigwizard. I live in Finland which is part of Europe!

Thank you all for helping me to get into vaping! Your answers have helped me alot!

Have you tried this shop? (I don't live there but it's a Finnish shop I think..)

E-liquidy, liquidy do e-papierosów

Or this shop here: FinnVape - Täyden palvelun sähkötupakka- ja nikotiinineste -kauppa who on top of e liquid also seems to sell FA DIY flavorings.. if you want to get into diy..

This place sells a lot of flavoring for DIY.. so if your not finding flavors you like you can always add flavor drops, or DIY Capella Flavors e-nesteet ja tiivisteet

And I believe here ships internationally for the rest of your diy ingredients 100% Pure USP Vegetable Glycerin: Food Grade VG Liquid | Buy Vegetable Glycerin (in case you need something else that you can't get at the aforementioned shops)

What brands/flavours do you prefer?

[djsvapour]

I guess TPD means no cross-border sales?
Still, not buying ecigwizard would be a bonus. I would seriously recommend DIY and shopping at the Inawera shop. You'll need base liquid (72mg) very fast now. 1 month before it's gone.

 

[TinsQuD]

Finnvape website and products are not good quality, imo, my friends used to order stuff from there.
Also Puff website sells only sealent not ready-to-use liquids. Friends only ordered parts into their e-cigs.

I don't like Liqua brand they don't make good flavors. Their liquids taste "dry" inhale and exhale.

Also DIY= Do It Yourself?
I do want to make liquids by myself but I've not found any good guidances or "teachers".

I like citrus, coffee (well I am Finnish...), strawberry, cream

Nicotine level 3mg. Preferred bottle size 30ml.

Yes, DIY is do it yourself.. you will want to make your own e juice for a high quality just the way you want..

One of the sites I linked you to had all the flavorings we use - nearly every brand, and inawera shop sells good flavoring as well nicotine and other do it yourself supplies.. you can make high quality e juice for very very little money, around .50 cents (less than one dollar U.S.) a bottle.. you have an initial investment, and then you have excellent e juice for a long long time!

Here: DIY E-Liquid you will find links to e juice calculators, recipes for e juice and be able to find out everything you need to know..

In your country, soon it might be harder to get nicotine shipped in your country? Someone mentioned you need to buy nicotine soon, so you will want to keep this in mind that you need to make some purchases very soon..

Everyone in that forum will help you get started with your own.. SO much cheaper, and so much better because you can use the quality of products you want, and you can make it exactly how you like!
