In your bushes, watching you undress
I have gained a new appreciation for 3.7v vaping now.

Once making the step up into higher voltage vaping I have gone from 3.7 to 5v and now 6v and honestly I never thought I'd look back after 5&6v vaping. But last night through today I realized I was wrong. 3.7 does have its place.

Last night I was having one last vaping session before bed and my RCR123a's died at the beginning of it. I had another set charged, but wanted to save those for the next day to vape fresh off of them. I do not ever charge any batts overnight due to the risk involved by not keeping an eye on them... so what was I to do? I looked over and realized I had two fresh 18650's sitting there and I decided to grab one for the hell of it.

Typically I use a lighter, smoother juice early in the day, progress to stronger, fuller juices through the afternoon and evening, but then go back lighter late at night right before bed. I figured doing a 3.7 vape would accomplish the same thing... I was right.

I was able to enjoy a smooth, cooler vape with less throat hit (I hate waking up to a sore throat from heavy vaping the night before) and quite enjoyed it.

Not as much vapor, but still enough to satisfy me easily.

So with that in mind, I awoke this morning to another 3.7v session and loved it. I could use a fuller flavor juice and not experience any harshness on my tender, barely awake throat. Then around 1pm I decided to step it up to 6v and was in for a shock... so much more throat hit that I stunned me for a second and slightly irritated my throat.

8-o

Hmmm, never experienced that before because typically I only vape at one voltage all day long. It was an eye opener and made me realize that the two different voltages have such different personalities that there really is a time and a place for both. Of course after two or three hits my body is ready for the 6v and I am loving it.

So now I believe I can enjoy vaping even more by experiencing different voltages throughout the day and giving me more great options. I have gained a newfound fondness for BOTH 3.7 and 6v. I'm so glad that the SB does both so effortlessly.

Thanks for this 3.7v vs 6.0v perspective! Vap'n is really starting to take on the aspects of a great hobby like I used to enjoy with pipes and cigars. Nuances, blends, tricks, attitudes, old masters taking newbies under their wings, etc.

Maybe I should take out my smoking jacket and ascot and wear them while vap'n in that old wing back chair with a good book near the fireplace. Ahh, memories.:)

i have the same experience !!!!!
before i have the SB i smoked in the morning the srewdriver, later in the afternoon i go to the GG.
i find the GG way to harsh, smoke gets really hot and the troaht hit is not nice you can't taste the juse anny more.
now i have the silver bullet and it's so easy to switch between 3,7v [in the morning and just before i go to sleep] and 6v [in the afternoon and in the evening ]
even with 6v the taste is great !!!!!
now my SD's and GG are just for spare
i really love the SB !!!!!!!!!!
