What hardware are you using to get the best out of your aroma juice ?

[Guttermouth]

I saw that too and decided to not get one. I guess they think everyone is running 15 watts or higher. Not me. nautilus mini bvc at 7.5 on the istick. A four second draw gives me plenty of vapor with Beatle juice.

i may get turned into soylent for this but, i think it's mostly a matter of knowing how to tweak things. someone that just started recently didn't have to learn how to maximize vapor production and throat hit within the really narrow confines of 510's,901's and 801's. it's waaay easier to just be able to hit a button to up the power range to compensate for substandard setups in other areas now without having to figure out how to get a good tasting,satisfying vape on locked low voltage.once you learn how to replace cigarettes with a 510 or old school ego and a cart,bvc's and adjustable power are just icing on the cake.

I think you've got a point there gutter. We came up thru the ranks with really crappy equipment compared to what is available now and have learned over time how to make things work. I like a good TH and get that at lower wattage with my preferred devices. I have no desire to push the 30, 50, or 100 watt limits.

Agreed Gutter and Hitt. Burnt just tastes burnt to me. I love me some big flavor but burnt isn't one of them.

I'm happiest with the short delay that a mechanical mod provides but am in the lower wattage category too. Even a slight decline in ohms matters in the taste department. For me and my Black Clove, 7/8 w/ 28 ga. on 16 ga blunt is perfect at 1.3/ 1.4. (Igo L BF Reo). One less coil yielding 1.2 ohms is just a bit too hot and I get burnt hits every so often. (Even though I know this, I try the lower every so often just to prove my point...hahaha!).

 

[hittman]

The coils I bought for my igo L are about 1.8. I goofed once and cut off too much and it came out around 1.4. I didn't like it.

 

[olderthandirt]

What a bunch of fuddy-duddies we are(-;
Seems a lot of preference towards the 2ohm range of things. 1.8 to 2.2 is what works best for me regardless the device or juice.

 

[hittman]

Me too. All my aspire bdc and bvc coils are either 1.8 or 2.1 and more 2.1 than 1.8.

 

[olderthandirt]

That's the range I build my dripper coils as well.

 

[hittman]

I ordered an istick mini today. That way I'll know what I'm getting into before the coop starts.

 

[olderthandirt]

Such a cute lil' thing that iStick mini.

 

[hittman]

I'm looking forward to it. The site said in stock so maybe it'll ship soon.

 

[Guttermouth]

i need to foist this fullsize istick i've got on one of you guys!!

i'm still rockin the igo on the provari mini.haven't changed a wick in a week now. it's been nice

 

[hittman]

I've been using the same coil in my mini nautilus for over a month. I bought a base and metal tank with the window and made a second mini cheaper than I could buy one. I already had coils so didn't need the kit.

I'll bet OTD would like to have that istick. I already have three.

Yer not likin' the iStick? Wanna trade for the Achilles clone I have?

 

[hittman]

Sounds like a deal in the works.

 

[Guttermouth]

yeah - the istick is just too hot for me. it's just sitting in the box collecting dust.
i'm trying to downsize. i may just send you a christmas box sometime

 

[hittman]

I need to downsize on how many pv's I'm carrying to work every day. Thing is I like to have a variety of flavors.

 

[olderthandirt]

You must have a lot of opportunity to vape while at work hitt?
I know I came across an atty somewhere that had two or three chambers each with it's own head. Something like that.... mebbe I dreamed it.....

 

[hittman]

Not really a lot of opportunity but can sneak a drag or two about any time I want. I carry so many because I like to switch between flavors while driving to and from work.

Kinda reminds me of those pens we used to use in nursing 100 years ago: Black for day shift. Green for PM's and red for nights....

 

[olderthandirt]

Yup, like those pens Robin.

I googled and binged and searched..... couldn't find a thing. I must o' dreamed it
