My preferred atomizer, the only one I use, is the SV rda clone. It's disappearing from the market so I bought a life time supply (10). Easy since they are durable and cost less than $7 each. I use it for specific reasons and haven't found it's equal. If you have a favorite atomizer chances are it's cheap right now because of all the new stuff hogging the limelight so pick up a few.I have been vaping for four years, starting with a little 650 mah joytech. The tank was the top fill with the coils or wicks being little strings. I thought I had really moved up and have been very happy with my Mini Nautilus and Mini Pro tank II. For two years I have used the Itaste VV3 and/or VV4. I use an Eleaf 30 watt with my Mini Nautilus. Well guys except for the Mini Nautilus the other vape supplies are either no longer available or hard to find. I did find the Mini Pro Tank II in limited quantities and bought a couple. I am now trying to lay in supplies to last me.
The Itaste and Eleaf 30 watt has been discontinued.
What I call sub ohm or clouds chasing is taking over and the manufacturers are marketing toward those who love doing this and leaving the ones like me behind. I cannot use a sub-ohm device. It chokes me. It make me cough so hard, I might as well be smoking a stinky.
I realize that I am a minority and that there are those who say I don't even want to try but believe me I have and every time I bought a set up, I gave it away to my son or daughter in law or sometimes just a friend. Some of us cannot do this. Some of us cannot take this much into our lungs.
I realize I am just venting and no one on this site can help but right now, I am very frustrated.
Power supplies are not the same situation. There are worthy successors to the regulated mods of a few years ago. My Pico is superior to anything from several years ago and is a fraction of the price.
