Vape / e-cig Thread

A place to talk about e-cigarettes, vapes, mods, etc.

What do you have?
What juice are you rocking?
Where do you get your supplies?

Throw up pics, tips and tricks, online deals, or whatever!

I'll start off with this pic. The one in front is my Emit Vapors Grenade Mod. Stainless steel that I heated with a blowtorch.

Heating

I have 2 IGO-W's, one dual coil one single coil, a few knock offs, an IGO-F on a 14650 knock off mod, and the trusty Ego Twist with a VapeOnly BCC Mega tank.

Sub'd. I've got a couple small e-cigs that I ordered from Green Smoke, and use occasionally. Been wanting to get into more legit vapes, but there are so many different brands and so many personal opinions on them.

I used to vape, until all my units broke. I was going to save up for a Lava Tube or something like that and get some 0% juice, just because I could save money instead of keep buying cigars.

Got a Chi-You clone from FastTech.com in the mail just now. It's fog an IGO-W dual 4/5 coils with a MNKE 18650 battery

Right now I'm using my SLB eGo-V v2 with a kangertech protank II. Next paycheck I'm gonna be buying a vamo and a couple different kinds of tanks and clearomizers and what not. I mostly vape menthol variants but right now I'm hooked on Imperial Juices White Peach and Cherry Cola. They're both low nicotine levels which is nice too. I recently got into it but I'm already addicted to buying new parts and what not thanks to a subreddit I found while browsing reddit.

Which sub? I found r/electronic_cigarette and r/RBA the most helpful

r/electronic_cigarette, haven't looked at r/RBA yet. I'll have to check that out. I'm actually in the process of replacing the micro coils on my kanger tank. I've used the 1.8 ohm and 2.2 up so it's time to replace the coils.

Mac what are some go-to juices that you find to be your favorite? I still have yet to find vape nirvana.

doyouquaxu · #9 10-29-2013, 06:54 PM

I haven't found one I like. I have a few that I liked a lot with my Ego, but now suck with a rebuildable atomizer.

tomdmcpwn · #10 10-29-2013, 06:57 PM

That's the issue I'm seeing. My protank vaporizes the flavors harsher than my little ego with a cart. Idk what I want as far as an RBA and battery, but I definitely have the modding bug. I'm intimidated by some factors of it though. Thank god for Reddit haha.

Just started vaping sat. haven't smoked a real cig since. I'm really digging it. I picked up a eco c twist and kangertec evod that seems to be doing me well except the batt.doesn't last long enough through the day. Hope to move to a segelei or vamo soon.

I don't smoke now but I have wondered about the e-cigs and I really don't know anything about them. Can someone tell me the difference bewteen the e cigs and regular cigs? My uncle on my dad's side is a virtual chimney stack. He's already been diagnosed with emphysema and copd and he refuses to quit. My dad also smokes still and he has had half of a lung taken out due to lung cancer. My dad use to tell me that if he smells a cigarette he has to have one which is crap. I smoked for a long time (27 years) and it'll be 2 years this coming april since I've quit.

What eCigs are is virtually vaporizing flavored water with other unharmful chemicals. They have an atomizer with takes the 'juice' as it's called and turns it into a water based vapor that comes in different flavors. They're an awesome alternative to smoking, and you can get any flavor you can think of. Flavors range from sweet flavors like cotton candy and mt. Dew, to menthol and tobacco flavors. There are different nicotine levels in each juice as well, which is good for someone who would come from smoking a lot of cigarettes. The government likes people to think that they're unhealthy and cause cancer, and they're trying to outlaw them and say they're a tobacco product, don't listen to that. I actually got into vaping because my friends smoke hookah, and I was jealous seeing them do all the cool smoke rings and ghosts and junk, but I hate hookah smoke, vaping is great though. See if your area has a store and stop by and talk to a worker. They'll be able to give you a ton of information, the community is great and friendly to people interested in it.

Thanks man. That'll be a great xmas gift for my uncle. I've got access to a couple of tobacco shops in my area that sell alot of that stuff. I was pretty much told to quit by a surgeon because of the bone/cartlidge cancer that I had. They said if it went into my lungs, there wasn't alot they could do for me and if it went into my bloodstream then there was nothing they could do at that point. That and I was in the hospital for 42 strait days. That's pretty much how I quit. While I was in there someone came in that had been smoking and my sense of smell had started to come back from where I was trying to quit earlier that year and it made me so sick that I asked for nausea medicine. Is it very expensive and how long do they last?

Vaping itself can save you quite a bit of money, the part where people lose money is getting addicted to collecting different 'mods' (a higher end e cig). Starter kits cost about $50-$75 and juice is about $5-$10 for a bottle (which lasts me a long time). I use an Ego-V V2 battery with a kangertech protank 2. Like I said, I'd highly recommend going to a vape shop and talking to a worker. I'd advise you to stay away from the Blu products you can buy from a gas station.
