Why can't I mtl all the sudden?

[HeidiB]

I always have the craziest vaping issues. All my tanks are mtl but I started getting very weird taste when l mtl that I don't get when I take restricted direct lung hits. It's working so i'm not interested in changing my thanks and just diluted my juice a little bit. This makes no sense to me.

Heat of vape effects taste. More air flow and it is cooler. Might be the reason, lower wattage with MTL might help by cooling vape

 

[HeidiB]

I went down to 9 watts and not even sure I should go that low, with it opened all the way up. With it all the way open at only 12 w I can do a restricted lung but that doesn't bother my throat.

 

[Zutankhamun]

Are you using the same wire/coil and tank at 9 watts that you do with 50 watts?

 

[HeidiB]

I don't go up to 50. Highest is 15 with a .8 ohm coil.

Took me 2 years and some experimenting to settle into my vaping "style". It all worked for me for a while but would have to adjust something eventually. Just part of the vaping journey.

If you’re getting a different taste when you pull smoke into your mouth with the same device than when you don’t the variable isn’t the device, it’s your mouth.
I would consider a visit to the dentist.

just curios what tanks are you using,since I have nothing to add.

It could also be your taste buds coming back if you have recently quit smoking. Takes some a few months to come back. Could just be you are tasting nuances in the juice that were not noticeable before.

I switched to vaping with MTL setups. After vaping for a few months I went to DL. I'm still doing that after 6 years, though now it's a pretty restricted DL at around 16 watts. When I try MTL now it just isn't 'right' even with MTL setups, though when I smoked I was always happy with MTL inhales.

Things change, smoking isn't the same as vaping and I adapted.

Things change and that's OK with me. IMO, go with the flow and vape how you feel works best for you. Best of luck with it!

Taste, smell, ability to inhale more vapor all change as you continue vaping. I am still a MTL vaper for the most part but I'm able to tolerate (even enjoy) some lower resistance coils with more wattage, from time to time. It's not all the time, and I imagine I will pretty much always sit on that side of the fence.

But, what you are describing can be quite common. As long as you are still enjoying vaping, all should be well, etc.

That's what I plan on. Overall it is still an enjoyable experience and I'm patient. Years ago when I last tried they didn't have the nic salts and I spent a fortune trying everything and nothing worked without me feeling like death so I'm happy that I found something I can work with multiple ways.

I thought I answered this but can't find my answer. I am using the Zenith MTL with a 0.8 coil wide open.

Yes, I'm sure this is a big part of it. I smoked for over 30 years with very short breaks in between so my taste buds are going through a lot of changes.

I think this is also a big part of it. Back when I did vape for 8 months all they had was MTL, so that is all I really knew how to do. I found the lung hit this time when trying to bypass my tongue during the inhale and found I really like it better. I still can't see doing a full DTL with the wide tips and high wattage. The restricted seems to being doing well for me right now so I'll work with it and hopefully still be able to my current tanks. I'll have to get more 0.8 coils because I just got a pack of the 1.8s. Sigh.

Thanks Anna, I have no plans on giving up. I found something that works, I just need to find how it works best for me. Overall I like the experience and I LOVE not smoking!

it could be the coil,since your at the mercy of the manufacture.

I should be getting a RTA tomorrow or Friday. I went with the doggystyle since it was cheap and I won't be out much. I never thought I'd even try to build my own coils so who knows if my hands can even handle it.

 

[Vaperer]

It takes a while to figure this out when you first get started that's for sure. It's worth it at the end though so keep vaping on!

You can buy premade coils that are pretty cheap. You might want to do that just so you have an easier option at first. I have gone all the way to unflavored liquid now. It tastes like a really clean smoke to me.

I agree. It is worth it. I'm still kind of giddy that I can even get the nic salts down my throat. Many years ago I had to quit after 8 months of vaping because I literally could not get the vape down my throat. My throat actually started seizing up in protest at the pain it would cause. The nic salts still give me a little bit of a fit on few occasions (admittedly completely me and not getting it down right), but for the most part I can have a completely comfortable vape. I'm absolutely thrilled!!

I saw those. I'm trying to get my cost down as minimal as possible, but it is great to know that is an affordable option and for not much more than making my own.
