Vaping Evolution

[rommel19540]

Got a new toy today, the Joytech Cuboid; which, is a massive upgrade in power from my Eleaf Istick 40w/TC that has served me well the last year. Earlier, I was reminiscing about a year ago, when I first started vaping on a dinky Ego LOL and it's cheap polycarb tank, wondering why in the hell anyone would need 100-150w of power; an now, here I am with 200 FRIGGIN WATTS of power!!! I LOVE IT! Now I need to build up a wire collection and start building some massive coils to take advantage of all this power. I also failed to take advantage of the Eleafs TC function for the most part but can see that is where I'm heading now. I dunno, maybe its me, but it's funny to look back at my vaping evolution. If you read this, I hope you appreciated it and had some fond memories of your own evolution.

I went from a dinky little pen to an Eleaf Istick in less than a year and looking to go up again soon

Vaping is a funny hobby. When I started I didn't anticipate how quickly I would gain a passion for it

Just remember, just cause you have a Lamborghini doesn't mean you have to go 200mph. I have 3 mods including a cuboid that are capable of 200w and have never made it past a 100. (that was playing with a TFV4) Really not much need to but I do understand. Just be careful and use really good batteries if your going to be anywhere near 200w

LOL thankyou for reading and yes it is a hobby unlike smoking which is pure habit

It wasn't much more than a year and a half ago when the Kanger subtank was the best thing going.....

LOL great point and I'm sure I wont need all that horsepower but I do know the Istick was working really hard at 40w whereas this guy is quite comfortable there. And thank you for the battery safety tip. I have brand new efest 35amp batteries so I feel good about them

Yeah there are so many products like every month it's crazy but in a good way. I think so anyhow.

The sad thing is the battery industry didn't keep up with the times.

Actually, there is no such (actual) 35 amp Efest battery.

My bad 30amp, good catch

Regardless, you are correct, the evolution of vaping has come a LONG way in a very short period of time..!

Those who know what real evolution is remember having to do a Taryn spin.

I started on a piece meal kit(individually ordered parts) that looked something like this, no box/no manual

Still have it......................And a Whole Lot More

 

[sonicbomb]

I started out with one of these back in 2010. I don't have any of the kit now as when I got my first Ego-tank I filed it under bin. I'd be interested to know if any of the swathes of people buying these 200W mods ever get close to using that much power. I like a hot plume as much as the next guy, but I rarely go above 70 watts even with big claptons.

I wish ejuice would evolve as quickly as hardware has. It is still either sickly sweet or perfumy. To me at least.

Ah well, I guess I will have to wait for McDonalds or Burger King to jump into the business.

Don't forget Troggs screwdriver...the original "MOD".

Taryn spin. Yep, I still have a dent in the wall where one of my cartos got away from me. Those were the days.
