Sounds like a good habit to have. Everyone always comes to me when they need something because chances are extremely good that I'll have it. Between the two of us, we could probably teach the Boy Scouts a thing or two.

So how much does your bag weigh, Jason?
-
Batteries, especially, weigh down a bag fast. Since I like the iStick 50W so well, carrying those as back ups really weighs my purse down. Three of them have tanks and juice and there's one that's just as a back up battery. There are also two Vision Spinners with KPT3 minis on them just as an extra back up too.

From personal experience and also that of so many others we've helped along on this forum, I have one bit of advice for you when it comes to any flavor: Try it for yourself. I'm not trying to be non-helpful, but everyone tastes juice in a different way, it's all so subjective. What I think is the greatest tasting juice in the world, someone else will say it tastes like wet socks to them. Four people can say this is the best tasting tobacco juice out there but it may taste awful for you. The only way to find out is for you to try it for yourself. If they have it in a small size, buy it to try it. Then, if you like it, buy it in a bigger bottle. Just know that if you let it sit for a week or so (this is called steeping by some), the flavor will deepen and get richer, you'll also probably taste different notes that will come out with time.

Depends on what you want to do with it. Do you want to use the temperature control or use it in watts? It looks like the Innokin iSub tank has more options for different coil styles: http://www.myvaporstore.com/Atomizer-Head-for-Innokin-iSub-p/ink-isc.htm

If you have the money for it, get both. You'll never be sorry you have a back up when you need it. Seriously.

Here's the easiest way to find the sweet spot on your Nautilus with whatever juice you're using. Start low (go with watts or volts, whichever you're most comfortable with). Vape. If it's not doing it for you, turn it up a little. Vape. Repeat until you get a slight burnt taste and then back it down just a bit. That's the sweet spot for that resistance of coil, that tank and that juice. You may need to adjust with different flavors. The bakery/heavy flavors tend to like more heat. The fruity flavors like it cooler.

I've been getting emails from all the vendors I purchase from that they're having Valentine's Day sales. Are there any vendors you usually buy from? I'd start there to check for sale prices. Check in the vendors' section of this forum, they should also be having sales.

It also comes down to how you vape. Are you a mouth to lung vaper or a direct lung vaper? The two tanks that Bebop suggested are better suited for direct to lung vaping. That means you inhale the vapor straight into your lungs. Most former smokers have a hard time with doing that at first. Mouth to lung is more like smoking a cigarette where you inhale into your mouth first, wait a split second before inhaling into the lungs.
-
Yes, you need to make sure you get the correct coil that fits on that specific tank.
-
The coils that come with the tanks are generally... how to say this nicely... crap. Most of us throw them to the side for when we get into a pinch. For some odd reason, the coils that come with tanks don't perform as well as the replacement coils. The Triton 2 comes with two coils (one 0.5 Ω Clapton and one 1.8 Ω), it also comes with a separate Pyrex tank if you don't want to use the plastic one that comes on the tank when you buy it. ALWAYS buy extra coils right away. You won't be sorry.
-
You don't need to go as high as 2.0 ohm coils. My go to tank is an Aspire Triton 2. Although I have the rebuildable, I prefer the stock coils -- call me lazy. With the Triton 2, they make a 1.8 ohm coil. Just bought two more tanks and four 5-packs of 1.8 ohm replacement coils. I change coils when it doesn't give off the flavor/vapor (it doesn't work as well as it should) anymore. The kind of juice you use also plays a part in how long a coil will last. With light colored, less sweet juices, the coil will last much longer. With dark, sweet juices like what I vape everyday, I get about six tankfuls before having to change the coil. The sweet, dark juices gunk up coils faster.
-
Hey, Bebop, are you building your own coils on those or using stock coils?
-
It means you and your friend would be well served to do a little research on these terms so you can vape safely and not wind up on the six o'clock news as a new casualty.
-
The tank we'd recommend would also depend on what mod you want to put it on. For the best performance, you'd want to pair the two.
-
Your iStick is just the battery. What tank are you using?
-
The iStick is just your power source. What tank are you using? What resistance is the coil? What is your PG/VG level in your juice? Those all have a part in making more vapor.
-
Well, this is all good news. It sounds like he's getting you trained pretty quickly. Good boy!
-
So cute! I can't believe how much he's grown... and how can you resist those, "C'mon, play with me" eyes?

Welcome to Vapor Talk.

Today when I was at the vet's I saw a St. Bernard/Great Dane mix. Never seen one of those before. He was a beauty! Too bad I didn't think to snap a pic. He was 115 lbs, his little buddy of the same breed was 12 lbs but only 7 weeks old. So cute! I want to see what Bo looks like now. He must've been busy growing up a storm since you made the initial post.

Wanting to make juice that tastes like soda
Tam replied to Pu$$yDestr0y3r9000's topic in DIY E-Liquid Recipes
There probably is. What's the actual drink you're trying to make? -
We frequently get asked, "What's the best..." from new members / new vapers on this forum. "Best" is a very subjective thing in the world of vaping. What's best for one person will not work for another. Yet, despite us saying this over and over and over again... we still get asked the same questions. What's the best battery? What's the best mod? What's the best tank? What's the best beginner's kit? Let's have a discussion. What's the best for YOU and why is it the best? Okay... go!

Most of us on this forum use vaping as a means to get off cigarettes. While we believe that vaping is less harmful than smoking tobacco, there are no long term studies that have proven research that conclude vaping is safe. If you still want to take the risk, then I would encourage you to start reading threads on this forum to gain information about vaping, different tanks, coils, coil resistance, PG/VG ratios for different vapor output, heat output, watts/volts, different metals and wires, battery safety, amps, etc. There is much to learn in vaping. We stress safety. Always.

help me decide between these vapes please!
Tam replied to charliemen's topic in General Vaping Discussion
Scroll down the page on all three links you put down and you'll see this disclaimer/warning: Advanced user item. Use at your own risk! There's a reason why they put that kind of warning on their page. You are not an advanced user so I would recommend you skip these and keep looking. For someone who is just beginning, there are better starter kits that will ease you into vaping.
