Hi there, i am very new to the forums(as you can see), but i have watched all the new users videos on here and i hope my question is not too stuped for a newbie. I did see on the introduction video that VG produces more vapor than PG, but my question basically is:
What is the best combination of e-cig and liquid to produce the most smoke(vapor)?
I currently own 3 super minis(yes 3 since i got a decent deal on them and after reading this forum)(been reading as a guest for over a month and just regitered today to ask) and i am not satisfied with amount of vapor it produces. Any recomendations? Which e-cig, which liquid, any additional tips?
I am an ultra lights (analog)cigaretts smoker(about 1.5 packs per day) and mostly smoke Carltons(1/0.1/1) or Philip Morris ONE(not available in US so get friends to bring from Europe(1/0.1/2) just to give you an example so not looking for high amount of nicotine content but mostly very low(or under 8mg). Thanks and i hope this question is not too noobish for someone to answer!

Get a screwdriver and vape VG. I dont have a SD device, but all you read about is the wicked vapor. And PG does not create as much vapor as VG.

As for your nic content...I would recommend starting low. From what I read, most people enjoy vaping constantly (myself included). So you might want to start low, then wait for your body to tell you if its too much or too little. I cut my nic intake by at least 50% in the first week of going from analogs to PVs.

Screwdriver without a doubt. Manual switch so you can get outstanding throat hit and vapor and batteries that last 8 hours. Also no concerns about getting liquid in the batteries and mucking up the switch like the auto switch devices. Nothing comes close other than a homemade mod.

Thank you for quick answers! this forum is really full of helpfull people not like some others(no name but you know the ones). The thing is i am really hooked onto - no button design, as a long time smoker i dont really want to adjust to pushing the button and just puffing. Is DES901 the better choice(with VG liquid) in that case or should i try 801 or some other(trying to stay away from e-cigars although i have heard they put out much more vapor than e-ciggaretts)

VG "is" said to create more vapor, put it also adds more sweetness to the taste.

I've also found that on the auto type devices that slow longer puffs or better yet.... sipping type puffs as you would from a cigar produce more vapor.

If your the type who savors the flavour in your mouth then inhales and holds the inhale, you will find that when "exhaled" the vapor is quite deminished. In other words, its not like an analog cig at all and never will be.

Perhaps you should read over the DIY (liquids) forum and play with creating your own mix (as well as nic strength), or simply cut your supplier bought juice with some PG/VG to help create more vapour and reduce nic.

These devices are a great "alternative" to analogs, but as such, require some use adjustments and some results shortcomings in comparison.

I would also refill your carts cutting a higher nic content with glycerin. I use 25% VG with 24 giving about 18. The glycerin does produce more smoke and find it best to take a double toke exhaling the first while inhaling the second. This gives you a primer puff and at least somewhat slows your second draw giving the best smoke production on a super mini. The VG does also cut the flavor but that is not always a bad thing either. I would not cut more then 50% so you could use an 18 cut by half and get about what you want and still puff a lot. There seem to be no real rules of thumb but you will get the knack soon enough.

Been vaping for almost a month....have vaped 32mg all the way down to 8mg, and really like the lower mg levels. Throat hit first thing in the morning and last before bed is what I like....smooth, low mg the rest of the day. Everyone has a different routine and likes/dislikes...pace yourself until you find your niche for consumption.
