Trying again. Recommendations.

[jkhristian]

Hi guys,

I tried the smokingeverywhere gold and didnt like it at all. I dont want to give up on vaping yet so I am resolved to try another brand. Can anyone recommend one that hits strong, lots of vapor, has decent battery life, and a size thats not too invasive. (I like the minis but might be willing to step up if the quality is a major factor. I just like them cause they look like a ciggie). I appreciate your patience cause I am new to this vaping thing and I really want to get off the analogs. btw I like my cigs pretty strong. been smoking camels for years.

You'll probably get many, many recomendations about personal preferences.
I'll give you mine.
Go to Bestecig--http://www.bestecig.com/-- and get a BE112,(801-Penstyle).
The're not as chic as some of the smaller types but they work very well, hold a lot of liquid, have good battery life, etc.

Just my $.02.

Based on your criteria, "hits strong, lots of vapor, has decent battery life", you want the screwdriver or a mod which is the best PV on the market. The picture makes it look bigger than it is. It's no longer than a 901 and the way you have to hold it to activate the manual switch, it can't be easily seen by others. You just can't get the "strong hit" without a manual switch so you can heat up the atomizer more. The auto switches all have "cut-off" on them if you inhale over 5 seconds. I haven't tried the Janty Dura-C but it also has a manual switch and looks more like an analog. That is another option. I have a 901 and 801 and neither come close to the SD for battery life (6-7 hours), throat hit, vapor and consistency. Plus the batteries for the SD can be purchased just about anywhere. The SD costs more initially, but it is more than worth it. And trog has been great in answering questions. Here is the link:

PS: there are advantages to your PV not looking like an analog. You won't get accused of smoking an analog. You can tell people it is your Personal Vaporizer and they tend to then go, "oh", and walk away.

I have tried the penstyle and the mini and I personally prefer the penstyle because it does produce a good vapor and the cartridges last longer. Also as far as vapor and throat hit it will also depend on the type and strength of e-liquid you use (IMHO). I found using the pre-filled carts to be good for the first 10-15 drags, but then they feel like they start to peter out after that, so I top them off with a few drops of e-liquid and then I am good to go!

I agree with wv2win as far as it not looking like an analog. I never felt the need to have it look like an analog, I just want it to produce similar to analog for my satisfaction.
