You're one of the few who are sub ohming on here. I am, because I had to guess when I bought my first, what machine and are you diy on coils as well? Im looking to get to a time where I'm not spending half my spending money on vaping supplies. I don't think vaporfi products like atomizers are available through any other retailers, so I get blasted on shipping.

yes I wind my own coils.

Might I make a suggestion. When you get your new mod and tank. Give that a good try. leave subohming/coil winding until you get the rest of your vaping to a place you are comfy with.

Edit: I have already mentioned earlier in the thread what I use. I am not going over it again because I do not want to confuse you. Learn what you have coming and it will give a better indication of what the next step should be. :) MANY people never subohm

Edit 2: DOes anyone on the porches know if Fasttech has Nautilus coils? I used to use their protank and evod coils and they were not all bad and a whole heck of a lot cheaper and free shipping.

Vape? Once you get your new setup try soak old coils in vodka for 12 hours then water for 12 hours has worked great for me have only thrown 3 coils away in 7 monthes. I just make sure as soon as I see vape production go down I change coils do not wait till they get burnt taste.

She might be able to do that with the setup she has now to tie her over until the new one arrives.

And da congregation shouted "Amen..."

Ellen, IMHO, you were tossed into da deep end of da pool and can barely tread water. It's not your fault!

Yes, you've been off cigs fer a couple of months which is fantastic. BUT, you're not really getting da pleasure you could/should due to equipment and lack of info.

To my understanding, you're receiving a more than capable combo. We here will walk you thru any issues you may have with it. And hopefully, we will watch your vaping enjoyment and knowledge grow, as we have for/with many others!

Now just relax and keep

Vape? these might be a cheaper source for coil heads for the Nautilus. I think you just need like a $20 order to get free shipping. DOwnside it can take WEEKS if not longer to get them so plan ahead.

I h ave a few put away to see if they get better with time? First impression of Most fruit flavours I've tried Is usually artificial. Be lovely to find a watermelon or one that really tasted like fruit. No high expectations here, ha. The wintergreen is reliable. What's your general taste run to? And do you have companies you like better for pre Made?
One of the things you'll hear most often in the vaping community is "Taste is subjective". Juice that tastes wonderful to you might taste terrible to me, so it's really hard to recommend flavors or juices, or grands to someone without some kind of starting point. You are going to have to just stick your neck out & expriment. A canilla custard by one brand might be terrible, the next brand's might be wonderful. That's why I recomended Giant Vapes to you. They carry many brands in one place. Each brand have several if not many flavors. You can browse & shop, read the flavor descriptions & order several smaller bottles for trying out different juices & brands. Better than ordering from a bunch of different vendors & paying shipping on each one.

You mean pry the atomizer open and take the coil out, or soak the whole atomizer? I've still got 7 or 8 .5 in a blister pack, and if I get the 1.2 atomizers for the vice, while not ideal, I'll have a backup when charging the new setup. The time for shipping is totally unpredictable, except ups. It can take anywhere from 9 days to 30 some. Im lucky to be able to try what I'm getting, I've got this far, and so appreciate having somewhere to come with questions. It's all good.

stick the atomizer (the atomizer not the whole tank)in the vodka do not pry it all apart. Just let it soak for a good 12 hours in vodka and then another good 12 hours in water (I prefer to use distilled here because our water is so bad). THen let it dry. It might let you reuse some of your atomizers until either a new supply or the new tank setup arrives.

Fasttech is going to take as long or likely longer if you start ordering coils/heads/atomizers from them. to the US the fastest order I have gotten was 10 days and the longest 4 months LOL. Such is dealing with China.

Vape? One more thing with Fasttech.

Until you know more about vaping only buy things that are listed as "AUTHENTIC" much of their stuff is not and is in fact poor quality clones. Once you know more what you are doing you can sort through clones and have an idea which are worth buying but for now stick to authentic.

Also do NOT buy eliquid from them. Most people find the liquid to be rather disgusting.

When it comes to paypal, I've read that it won't work when buying some authentics on Fasttech.
Really? I have never run into an issue using paypal to buy anything off Fasttech. That is the first I have heard of that.
