I'm sorry if this is a commonly asked question, but I'm getting dizzy reading all the reviews. So if theres someone whos tried multiple e cig brands and can help me that would be amazing.

First some background.

I have been an off and on user of ecigs, I have tried multiple brands with good short term results but no long term results. Quick list below

Blu
njoy
901 or something like that - long pen shaped model
tornado
screwdriver

I've had issues with long term success due too not being able to get enough smoke or throat hit. I've played with the whole vg/pg mixes. I've just found the ecigs a bit too weak for me.

I also realized that the fun flavors were also a problem (just too much sweet for heavy smoker like myself). I now stick to cigar and tobacco flavors which has helped.
I'm currently using the screwdriver, which I'm doing well with but it burns out the juice flavors which is really important to me. The weaker models I tried had great flavor but no power.

Is there a model that will give me the trifecta vapor/throat hit/flavor

Thank you

You're using a 501 atty, aren't you? From what I understand(I've never used 501), 501 gives greater TH with less flavor, and 901 gives a little less TH and more flavor. I always got mine from PureSmoker.com - USA Electronic Cigarettes & USA Made eLiquid!!!

If you want to switch up on gear though, and keep it simple you should check out the newer kr808d-1's. Like Welcome to the New BLOOGPLANET.com - The Future of Smoking - Your One-Stop E-Cigarette Resource , or the ones at NHaler • Smoking Alternatives which are called the MF style 808's. Thereare several other companies out there selling these as well. They're worth checking out imo. Very simple, and very effective.

95% of GOOD throat hit or what I call the "inhaled feel" of an analog, comes from two things: warmer vaper (bigger/better batteries) and nicotine strength. LR attys do help with small battery (3.7 volt) PV's like you have but they tend not to hold up well. In the long run I think you would be more satisfied with a larger battery PV that will provide better and more consistent throat hit than what you have been using. And the flavor should not be affected negatively. Idealy, for throat hit, consistency, long battery life and flexibility, a good variable volt PV would be your best option. For a fixed volt PV, I would recommend the 5 volt GLV2 from Great Lakes Vapor. For variable volt, I would recommend the Darwin as my first choice from nhaler.com or evolve.com. My second choice would be the Provari.

You didn't mention what nicotine strength you are using, which also could be part of the problem. I would recommend at least vaping 24mg eliquid and if that is not working, then bump it up to 30 or 36mg strength.

LR attys simulate High voltage vaping. my screwdriver 3.7v with a 1.5 LR carto is like vaping 9-10 watts i hated the normal attys 2-3ohms on a 3.7v device- not enough TH for me. Buy a Provari, adjust to your liking by using variable voltage.

I think the LR brings out both more flavor and TH- just uses up batterys more. The screwdriver comes with a standard 901 fitting.
