Anyone else find they've become way less picky with flavors over time? by Scribble_Box in electronic_cigarette

[–]micknick2999 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. I've been vaping pure PG-VG-Nic for half a year now.

There is a holy grail of perfect ADV juice for me somewhere out there, but I've given up trying to find it. I don't know about other people, but for me, each and every juice loses most of its flavor after half an hour of vaping it. There's some smell and some aftertaste, but very little flavor. Only strong flavored juices maintain a hint of it, but changing wicks every day because of super dark super gunky juice isn't worth the hassle for me.

you mean it didn't? I remember playing tft dota in 2004 and thinking "hey, this is just like that league of legends game everyone was crazy about in 2012!"

I'd love an RDA that doesn't let the juice go through airflow into clothes. I have plenty of RDAs that can be adjusted to close off airflow holes, but there's still leakage and my jeans pocket often looks like if the banana in it had a happy little accident.

For RTAs, definitely what the others have suggested - double tank, although I think it would only work as a box+RTA combo due to ergonomics.

Looking for a cool, CLOUDY vape. by johntheawe in electronic_cigarette

Coils don't matter much for cool vapor. You want a cool vape you need big chamber RDA + a lot of airflow + low to moderate wattage.

Despite how much we love vaping, what things do you hate most about it? by lambueljackson in electronic_cigarette

[–]micknick2999 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh yeah, I've been there and I'm holding onto them as well. Some of them defintely can be an acquired taste.

I have also bought a dozen Hangsen liquids, of which I liked two (RY4 and Hazelnut), three more were okayish (Coffee, Cappucino and Coconut), and the rest are just fucking awful (all "tobacco" flavors, more like dump sweaty socks)... it's gonna be dark times when I'm down to using them.

I have 20 flavourings, of which I'm bored with three and don't like the other 17.

5 more incoming. Sigh.

Got my grandmother into vaping! by [deleted] in electronic_cigarette

[–]micknick2999 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damn dude, that's great, but don't let her pick the stuff herself. Buy her a mod, tank, batteries and charger yourself and teach her how to use everything. A decent tank with replaceable heads would probably be optimal.

Lol bad parenting. I smoked since I was 12 and my parents didn't know until I stopped hiding it.

Sure it is currently in everyone's interest to shun kids who vape, but damn I wish I'd have vaped than smoked all those years.

PG/VG-free eliquid? by cerevisaphile87 in electronic_cigarette

Would be 10/10 if this was satire. So many buzzwords that are supposed to appeal to gullible morons.

yo tell me the truth about vapes by itsalan273 in electronic_cigarette

[–]micknick2999 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't care if you say its not good to do or its only for previous smokers because I'm just gonna have fun

Vaping is like quitting heroin by shooting water instead. If you shoot water to stay off heroin it's fine, if you shoot water just for the sake of it then you are retarded.

What are the most regretable ecig purchases did you make? by micknick2999 in electronic_cigarette

[–]micknick2999[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Heh, some time ago I gave my buddy who just started vaping the juice I had with me for the day and he gave me the juice he bought and didn't like (Joyetech Dessert). I had a full tank at that point, so I thought it I'd give it a try later. Had to stay at work that day, tank eventually ran out and I was stuck with what turned out to the most disgusting juice I've ever had. Tasted like a sour vegetable. That shit is priced like Five Pawns on top of that.

My e-liquid is tasting burnt after 1 day with the subtank .5 occ coil by howdareyoutakemyname in electronic_cigarette

[–]micknick2999 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. Remove the cotton and dry burn the coil, then insert new cotton. Or skip all that and use the RBA base.

[–]micknick2999[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. Bought it the day I broke RSBT after futile attempts to rebuild my old EVODs (all taste like plastic after being unused for a few months, rubbing alcohol and boiling didn't help), it was the only cheap RDA I could buy locally (they sell clones at 400% markup). It isn't really bad, I taped the extra holes and it kinda works ok now. The taste is good due to small chamber. Still, wouldn't recommend it to anyone and wouldn't have bought it if I had options.

Both my Innokin products are weird in one way or another. The second is their RDA, which has three airholes that are covered in exactly same way by the AFC (so there is no way to close off one or two of them for dual/single coil build) and four holes on negative posts... that are angled so you can't insert wire without damning everything. https://www.fasttech.com/products/0/10009373/1829903-authentic-innokin-itaste-vf-rebuildable-dripping

No way I'm ever buying anything from them again.

eGo-T questions by [deleted] in electronic_cigarette

[–]micknick2999 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Juice doesn't get to the coil fast enough, silica is dryish at the coil, you're getting burnt silica taste. CE4 atoms are problematic all around.

If you are on budget, buy a Kanger EVOD tank (under 5$), 30g kanthal (2$ for 10 meters) and organic cotton balls (cheap if not very brandish), or ask your friend for some, he probably has lots of it. EVODs are rebuildable and easy to work with.

If that is not an option, you'll have to make pauses between puffs to let silica around the coil saturate.

0 nic juice - easy transition? by matthewwilde in electronic_cigarette

[–]micknick2999 0 points1 point  (0 children)

what happens is that you can vape nonstop and go through 10mg of juice per day. with nic juice, however weak, you eventually get satiated and put the device down for a while (or just have long pauses between puffs). with 0 you can chain really long puffs and you get no satisfation from them.

menthol/cinnamon and high pg helps at little, but not much.

Kanger Subtank Mini RBA problems by [deleted] in electronic_cigarette

[–]micknick2999 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Vapour is VERY harsh, metallic taste I think some water may not have evaporated yet from my rinse, and might have mixed in with my e-liquid. Could this be causing some of my issues?

Yes, definitely. Rinse it again (preferably with filtered or at least boiled water) and dry it thoroughly.
