Share you're go-to everything!

[treehead]

Hi guys!

I'm genuinely curious what all you beautiful ECF members have ultimately figured out to be your general all-around favorite vape configurations that you've figured out. I know we all have different tastes and preferences, I just think it would be cool to see what others have settled on to be their ideal daily vape.

So share that yoda-like wisdom that you've discovered so far! I guess to guide in a general direction I mean you're favorite:
-toppers
-mods (or battery power)
-coils & wicks
-settings (wattage, temperature, volts, ohms, regulated/unregulated, whatever's pertinent)
-Favorite e-liquid(s)
-Anything else for the setup you go to work with, sleep with, wake up with ETC.

I think we could all learn from each-other by sharing the cream of our crops per se! And if you have pics, post'em if you got'em!!!

For quite a while now I've landed on a squonk stainless steel mesh setup that is so perfect for me, I think I'm going to have a hard time changing anything about it. Starting at the top I'm in love with the Profile RDA v1.5, it's a very simple deck with plenty of airflow and primarily designed for mesh coils (which I'm extremely partial to now, the best flavor i've ever experienced, instant ramp up, and big vapor), but also capable of putting my own built Ni80 coils when I get a bug up my ..... I'm using a SS316L 150 mesh (very small holes), in order to Temperature Control (I'm using a TCR value of 90 and that works perfect if anyone's wondering) at 455 Farenheit on my Dovpo Topside Dual Squonk Mod. I'm in love with this mod because you squirt your juice in from the top so it's just as easy and clean as dripping, only it holds 10ml in the squonk tank, which usually lasts me all day unless I'm really harping on it. The SS mesh is usually 0.15 ohm-.2 ohms, which I like because the mesh instantly ramps up and stops at 450 on the dot. I'm not going to lie I do miss building coils more often, but the mesh has alot more surface area and I can change it out in about 3 minutes. I'm wicking currently with organic cotton, and the mesh circumference is about 6ml, so it's quite the chunky wick.

As far as juice goes, for me it's been Kai's Virgin Vapors' "Celestial Honeydew" at 3mg , I've always been a fan of high VG E-liquids, and KVV uses actual organic fruit and herbs to make their juices so it doesn't taste like hard candy, it tastes JUST like your biting into a ripe honeydew! HOWEVER I literally just discovered (about 4 hours ago lol) Nicotine Salts, and that my local shop sells 6mg nic salt juice. And I've got to say I like the faster nic hit that these provide, and the throat hit is there but much smoother (which I actually prefer, just enough to let you know it's there). So I think I'm on the hunt for a tasty organic Nic Salt based juice around 3mg.

All in all, I want a fast, consistent and flavorful vape, that I can set and forget! And if anyone can recommend a good low mg Nic Salt juice I'd greatly appreciate it!

 

[vaper1960]

I love my RTAs (when they don't act up) Thank god I have a couple simple MTL (drop-in coil) tanks just in case (and use them for carry around also) Mostly enjoy restricted DL. Oh yea, I also have a little pod for "vooping"

 

[vaper1960]

As for juice... I'm all over the place! pre-mades, DIYs, combinations of both. I love variety but always also have my tobacco mix in one tank (I like that in the mornings)
My only regret is that I didn't get around to trying Squonking (I'm all set for now, and broke) maybe one last purchase before Sept?

 

[smacuser]

Pico/Berserker Mini MTL, 1Ω round 2.5 id kanthal coil/Walgreens Organic cotton, at 9 watts. DIY 65/35 USA RED @14mg.

In it to not smoke and save money .

 

[Brewdawg1181]

In order of preference:
-toppers BD Vape Precisio, Ehpro True MTL, SJMY Doggystyle (occasionally)
-mods (or battery power) Artery Nugget X, Vaporesso Target Mini, Asmodus Colossal
-coils & wicks SS316, 2mm id, 7 wraps, 0.58 ohm, KGD cotton
-settings (wattage, temperature, volts, ohms, regulated/unregulated, whatever's pertinent) 7W on Nugget, 10W on Target Mini, 7W-H on Colossal
-Favorite E-liquid(s) diy NET from Stixx Mix, max VG, 14mg FB. For pods, 70% VG, 25mg FB, same Stixx Mix NET.
-Anything else for the setup you go to work with, sleep with, wake up with ETC. In addition to the mod/atties, I keep a Vladdin RE with the 25mg diy juice, and a Vuse Alto rich tobacco 5% on hand. High octane alto is mainly for am coffee and post meals.

 

[barkfunklerbunk]

Authentic Erlkönigin but lately Sjmy doggystyle, Squid Double barrel, Samsung 30Qs, vaping DIY juice on a .8-9 ohm single coil kanthal wire at 12 watts. I've been tootlepuffing 99% of the 7 years I've vaped and to me it's been perfection. I found my cozy little spot with the Erl and coil build/watts about 6 years ago. Eff cigs when I've got this instead

 

[stols001]

Precisio RTA, Rose v3 Fumytech RTA (I build it weird though single coil on diagonal) and well, anything dicodes. Because the vape is so fantastic and I'm fairly certain, most of the time, I will not break it. I am also fond of the Minikin Thor Perfect handfeel don't know what it is.

I could go on for way too long but DIY I get to do it myself. This is good, and bad.

I've been a squonker for almost a decade. I vape with the KISS principle. I work in a rugged environment, so tanks are a no-no due to glass+stone=cuss words. I have a days supply of liquid on board ~10ml, so no worries with fumbling a drip bottle. One 240ml flavor will suit me until it is gone, then I DIY another flavor for the next two weeks.

I have many mods, atties, batteries, bottles, etc, but I always have a squonker for my all-day/everyday vape use.
I try to remember to swap my RDA wick once a week. I see other vapers with drippers and tanks and wonder where they were led astray. There is a better way. It's called squonking. Fresh flavor, spill-proof (excluding over squonking), no glass to break. Seems a no-brainer, but I have a higher than average IQ, too. Whatever works to keep a person off cigs is the way to go, honestly.

 

[treehead]

These are all so good, you guys are awesome! I have a lot of googling to do tomorrow to see what some of these are, I'm excited. I went on a LONG streak (3 years) of going back to the dark side (smoking) for 6 months, then to nicotine lozenges another 6 months, and finally back to the promised land lol. And the last two years I was using my old Tatroe T1 RDTA (still has a special place in my heart).

But this last year being back the technology has jumped EONS ahead of where it was (thank god lol). I think I'm caught up, but there's quite a bit that I've missed too!

I used to have a tobacco juice for the morning myself, I kinda miss doing that, I think I might do that again (is there a juice you'd recommend?). I'm a huge squonk fan now, it's just a tank that you can force man, my favorite part is after a while of using it you start to give it a little squeeze every time without thinking about it. So my wicks and coils stay good forever! If you're looking for one that doesn't hurt the wallet, my last one was the GeekVape Aegis 100Watt, and it's at $50 right now. Although if you have a rough lifestyle like myself, I'd go with the Dovpo Topside Dual I'm using now. It feels really good in the head, has a chip with regulation and temp control, I love it to death!

 

[evan le'garde]

First off, any regulated mod will do so long as it can provide 11.5 watts of electricity.

At the moment i'm using a married pair of Sony VTC4 30 Amp 2100MAH batteries.

These days i'm using an SXK Kayfun Prime (I have a couple of authentics but prefer to keep using this clone).

I'm strictly a mouth to lung vaper.

I build a simple 1 ohm, five wrap, 2mm coil with 29 gauge Kanthal wire.

I use Muji cotton.

D.I.Y flavours are made with Capella Flavor Drops (TM). Irish Cream, Cappuccino, Sweet cream, Choc Fudge Brownie/Coconut, Cinnamon Danish, Green Apple, Apple Pie/Vanilla Custard, Double Chocolate. Flavourings make up for only fifteen percent of the finished liquid (One and a half ml for every ten ml of E liquid).

I use 72mg (UK's maximum) 50%VG / 50% PG nicotine base cut down two to one with Vegetable Glycerine to make 24mg liquid. Finished liquid is approximately 75% VG / 25% PG.

To make 80ml (in a 100ml bottle) i'll use:

12ml flavouring.
26 and 2 thirds ml's of 72mg nicotine base liquid (50%VG / 50% PG).
41 and a third ml's of Vegetable Glycerine.

I'll give it all a shake for ten minutes and it's ready to vape.

Seems a no-brainer, but I have a higher than average IQ, too.

Didn't see a or a so I'm guessing you're serious,hmm so none squonk users have lower IQ?
thanks for that...

Anyway back to topic.

I dabble between different flavors so i use different two attys on two different mods.
Jackaroo with PeaceMaker 25mm RTA on top,that one i use for my citric and minty fresh e-liquids.
Swag 80w with WASP NANO RTA i use for when i have sweet tooth,usually with sweet flavors,currently vaping on churro,love that flavor.
PSA:Churros originated in Spain,im proud of that,that is our contribution to the world

The world will forever be in Spain's debt for invention the delicious churro. However, there is another awesome contribution:

FOOSBALL!!

Me and you are quite alike my friend, I want something I can set and forget and not break while blacksmithing/welding for 10+ hours per day. That also entails it ramping up quick and me not having to think about it. I'm curious as to what kind of coils you use? I bet you'd like mesh as they're pretty KISS friendly.

Well, I didn't mean any offense, and I didn't imply that anyone else had a low IQ. If you took offense, maybe YOU have insecurity or are sensitive or just enjoy creating drama where there is none to be had. Anyway you look at it, you're smart enough to have quit smoking. So, don't beat yourself up too much if some of us are gifted. We are NOT all created equal. You probably have some quality that is superior to somebody else. Vape on!

I use vandy vape mesh cut to fit the profile v1 with 22mm cap.

I wish I could blacksmith/bladesmith, but alas, I am blind in one eye, so depth perception, or lack of, prevents me from being able to do some detailed tasks. I'll just continue making the world better outside. I operate a design/install landscape business. Inches aren't that important, generally, except for levels in stone work. I have tools to compensate.

Apologies for off topic combo posts! Back to your thread topic lol

For the record I love emojis and I am serious . And although I'm a squonker, I'll still dabble in dripping and see my tank brothers/sisters as absolute equals lmao. I like your style, and Spain has given SO MUCH to the world, especially in the sciences (which nobody nobody knows about), its truly a utopia I could see myself retiring in. (Although Alaska is pretty dope, not gonna lie.)

Maybe next time try to think better before you post,maybe you didn't mean any offense but your phrase was offensive in nature:

I see other vapers with drippers and tanks and wonder where they were led astray. There is a better way. It's called squonking. Fresh flavor, spill-proof (excluding over squonking), no glass to break. Seems a no-brainer, but I have a higher than average IQ, too. Whatever works to keep a person off cigs is the way to go, honestly.

Seems to me you ''think'' you are smarter because you skuonk?

No insecurity,not sensitive nor do i enjoy creating drama,just look at my posting history and you will see i'm far from creating drama.

But that doesn't mean i like being told i have low IQ just because i don't squonk,just seems to me that you have a high opinion of yourself:

''So, don't beat yourself up too much if some of us are gifted.
Seems a no-brainer, but I have a higher than average IQ''

Anything else? i don't know maybe you could post a pic of your ferrari,or show us your mansion.

P.S. done with this topic,not worth spending more time than i already did,i stated my opinion so I'm done,do what you will.
