Hello,

My name is Marie and i'm glad i'm here!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I've been vaping about a week already and have been analog free for about 6 days. I'm currently smoking an Ego and Ego T type B tank.
I would of been smoke free much longer but a few months ago i bought a NO. 7 e-cig kit and it was horrible.

So, i'm sort of okay with the ego... but i'm beginning to want more vapor. I was wondering if the rough stack from madvapes would be a good investment. OR would i be getting the same vapor production? Right now all i can spend is $45 on a good mod.... and thats it.

The cheapest route to more vapor is to use LR atomizers. They're available from most all of the vendors. Look for a 1.7 ohm or so and you'll see more vapor and throat hit with your current battery. The difference in vapor production between a mod and your eGo is the voltage. Mods usually run at 3.7v nominal while an eGo is 3.2v. When you increase voltage the atomizer can get hotter, and do so quicker, so it'll produce more vapor. If you want to go with a mod and are on a budget, you might want to look at boxmods. For your price of $45 you can get the boxmod, a pair of batteries, and a charger and still come out with some cash if you work it right. It'll vape just as well as high dollar 3.7v mod too.

First off , welcome to the forum. There are A lot of factors that go into how much vapor is produced. The roughstack is a 3.7 device and performs like a 3.7 device. Except I could get 2 days of vaping out of mine. You can get the maxi tube to get up to 7.4 volts. I would recommend the maxi tube and use it at either 4.8 or 6 volts.

The amount of vapor is determined on your juice, ohms of your atty, and volts of your battery. So using the same juice and atty/carto on a roughstack at 3.7 would give you about the same vapor as an ego at 3.7 volts. That being said, the roughstack is an amazing mod for a beginner. It was my first one and it performed well but wanted to try higher voltage. So I also ordered an maxi roughstack. I am glad I did.

If you go with the roughstack, get the maxi roughstack. I say this because you can use an 18650 for 3.7V vaping and the charge will last you longer. You can also stack 2 lifepo4 batteries for 6V. Pair the lifepo4's with a dcc and you'll be in vaping nirvana when money will allow.

Hairball what is a dcc if I may ask ?

 

[Michael Curry]

You're getting good advice here - The simple truth is that my ProVari will not vape any better than a $35 box mod assuming that I am set to the same voltage as the box mod runs at. It's really not necessary to break the bank to get good vapor.

Using a lower resistance cartomizer or a dual coil cartomizer (dcc above) will give you more vapor from your same battery. Only difference is, it will deplete the battery at a faster rate since it's hitting it harder every time you press the button. Not horribly fast, but you will notice the difference. So heads up - that isn't a malfunction.

Really good advice given

Hi and welcome!

I say pick up the variable voltage box mod from Madvapes for $35 so you can tune in the voltage you like best. They also sell a voltage meter so you can see what voltage you're set at, but really, you can just turn it up or down to suit your vaping mood and you don't have to know exactly what you're set at. VV is a beautiful thing.

best idea for more vapor is changing your e liquid to more vg then go to lr attys about 1.7 as been stated. I find vg has a better vapor cloud wow I could see the stuff and cloud a room up. I recently bumped up to vv so I can control the volts to enhance flavor or get a better hit off my attys. Its a vast improvment

Hey Altoids - We're practically neighbors. I'm an hour down 231 from you. If you ever get down this way, you gotta check out the local store. Best attraction on the Beach, IMO. lol

 

[altoids]

I make mods out of altoids tins which are vv they are awsome to use. send me 5 tins in good shape I will make you a vv and send it to you back. no batterys attys or cartos included its a good deal and only will last a limted time. send the candys in the tin if you dont like them I will eat them making your mod. you choose a 901/808 or 510

 

[altoids]

wow an e cig store that close to me oh my diddnt know. I make mods but can't find the people to sell to they think its odd to have a box that smokes. I will also be making a cheaper carto tank setup soon. I love to mod anything

 

[twisted6]

thank you joe thats what I thought it was.

 

[Pepe Le Vapse]

LR cartos on my eGo and slow steady drawn produce good vapor .
You might try getting a adapter -510 bat /808 cart. The new 808 carts make great vapor and have good flavor as well.
Grats on going off analogs Marie. keep going. It gets easier.

 

[rwnielsen]

Try these
I use them every day

As you can see there are a bazillion ways to vape.

When you look for any mod don't forget that you also need batteries and a charger to go with it. So the price goes up from what the mod costs.
This will do anything that any other mod will do at 3.7v at a fraction of the cost.

[altoids]

if you got the time making your own is well worth it. You learn what you like and hate real fast its your own idea of how to setup the mod. switch placement how the atty sits and what batterys you use.
