Cool, thanks. Didnt know if the extra wattage was necessary or not. even if i get into building coils, I'm not yet comfortable with sub-ohming.

I'm not 100% sold on it yet. With my current job situation, i have a good bit of alone time and thought it could be interesting; i may hate it. Only time will tell.

qu1cks1lver56, I wasnt joking when i said its all subjective. it literally all depends on your preferences. Do you prefer a tighter draw or looser? Do you prefer vapor quantity or taste quality. unfortunately none of this is "one size fits all".

Prime, thanks for the input. do you have the 20 or 30watt istick?

I don't know what a prefer because I don't smoke and have never vaped lol. I'd venture to say I'd want more taste over amount of vapor, though. It's pretty amazing that something that seems so simple gets so complex and customizable. I'm gonna check out Prime's suggestions and try to go to the local vape shop and see what they've got to offer.

Oh okay, i gotcha. Not sure about your local shops, but all ours here will let you sample and can explain in better detail what products will give you what results. Good luck friend.

I am not going to lie, I want to get into Vaping because my urge to smoke these days is killer, but heck if it's not intimidating with all these different models and mods.

I am so confused.

I'd love to get my mom a set up.. She is 70 and I'm scared she wouldn't use it.. She suffers from copd and I feel like this would help her a bunch

It probably would. Best place for older people stuck in their ways to start is with the blu type setup. It looks like a cigarette, it feels like a cigarette, and it is draw operated.

Don't get overwhelmed. I listed some good websites. Get an istick, a tank w/ removable atomizers, some juice, and try it.

Set foot in a B&M today. Pretty much confirmed that I hate people and buying this stuff online is much less hassle. And holy crap cheaper than an actual store. But. I was in a pinch and my online order for juice hasn't come in yet.

It's a lot smaller than I thought. But its stupid powerful.

Are those the settings that you landed on for your best hit? I've got one on the way in the mail from Mt. Baker. I've had a couple other batteries but never felt like I was getting any real cloud to it(Evod 650mAh). Gotta kick these analogs to free up money for mods :p

Picked up a Kanger EVOD from a local vape shop. Got some 0 nicotine juice in peanut butter banana and apple pie. Low propylene glycol %. I dig the flavor.

I have joined the ranks of Vapers. Lady got tired of smelling smoke on me (Had been having smoke or two at work here and there).

Got a iStick 30w device. Big thanks to Prime for talking me through how it works and such.

I will figure it out eventually

Analog == regular cigarette

ahhh, gotcha.
Nope, been pretty content to be honest. Even at WAW. I just kept it charged through the day when I was driving around.
I will say though - trying to fill the tank in 20 degree weather after many beers is not fun.

So im considering getting into this.......if i do im going straight for 0% nicotine. For me it seems to be more of a habit to smoke than a desire for nicotine.

Also.....cuban cigar juice....just saying. Ill be going with VaporFi too.....i can get half off everything.

What are you smoking now? Because I can tell you, if you go to straight 0 right off the bat, you're going to be one craving cranky mofo.

Black and milds. But I've gone a couple of days without smoking and not really had a craving. Monday i didn't smoke and didnt even care to. Thats why i think its more of a habit from doing something repetitively.

Word of advice to vapers with kids. If you have small kids that like to chew on things keep your stuff out of reach. A few kids have had to be hospitalized because they broke the cartridge open and got the nicotine in their system. The average cartridge has around 40 grams of nicotine which is enough to kill a small child.

I have entered the vape world. I picked up a Sigelie mini and arctic sub tank for $50. My buddy showed me this flavor called Milk it tastes like cereal milk and is damn good.

So I finally broke down and got started. I love smoking my hookah but it's become a pain in the ass when I want to smoke, but not for a 1-2 hour session. I went to a local shop and paid a bit more for the product than online but 1. supporting local and 2. the guy took the time to explain everything in great detail to me and answer all my stupid questions. He started me out with a kangertech subbox mini kit (black edition which looks awesome) mainly because I told him I'm an avid hookah smoker but didn't want to break the bank on my first foray into vaping. I got some No Name juice in Toucan flavor which is pretty nice too.

I don't know how guys stand to drip at all. It would annoy me having to drip every 10 minutes. Tanks ftw.

Depends what you run at. I have a regulated box so I keep it round 50 watts and drip every 15 to 20 depending how much I hit it

Its interesting - I've actually been using mine at 18.5watts with 3mg juice. I find that anything above twenty just gives a harsh throat hit with this specific juice at least. My wife tried it and liked it most at 15.5 watts. I have the airway opened to wide open though, the smallest setting was too tight to pull and the middle one was equivalent to dragging on a cig.

So I ended up loving the vape life...I already got a small collection of juices going and I just ordered a second box. The battery life on my Kanger subox mini seems to drain fast so I also picked up a supposedly better 18650 as well. The new box is a sigelei 150w in silver. I'm pairing it with a Royal Hunter rda so I have a drip setup. I think my next mod is possibly going to be a mech mod. I would love a Vicious Ant valkyrie or Phenom, but since they are sold out everywhere I think I may go with a tugboat v2.
