You started out with some very good equipment, sounds like you've got a good vendor in your area. That said, you now need to go pick up a couple more back ups. You have two batteries, which is a good start. You need a couple more tanks just in case something happens. When you get a couple more tanks, pick up a couple of 5-packs of coils to go with them. You never know when a coil is going to go out on you or when you get a bad one. Having back ups and back ups of back ups is the insurance to your success in getting off and staying off cigarettes. Congratulations on making the switch, and I hope your lady makes a quick and full recovery from her surgery. Welcome to Vapor Talk.

Just ordered 3 rebuildable coils for the Aspire Triton 2 from Coval Vapes. They're having a sale and have them for $5.95 each.

Interesting. I can't wait to read the full report when it comes out. Thanks, Jeff!

I prefer simplicity at its finest. The closest thing to a box mod that I have and currently love is an Eleaf iStick 50W. The batteries are not changeable, it's simple, and it just works. It's variable wattage and variable voltage, I can sub-ohm if I want (I usually prefer to stick to around 1.8 ohm for coil resistance whether I build it myself or buy a premade coil), it has enough oomph to be very versatile. Best of both worlds.

Any way to adjust font size on these, Comp?

Make sure to get the Triton 2 and not just the Triton if you decide to go that way. The original Triton gave me all kinds of problems after the first few tanks. The Triton 2 (version 2) fixed those and is much better imo. I like to use it with a 1.8 ohm coil although there are many other options available.

Yep, what Earthling said. Plus, just because it's popular doesn't mean that it's the right one for you. Vaping is very subjective, only you will know which one works best for what you want.

What Bebop said.

I would contact the vendor where you bought this and see if they won't replace it for you.

If you didn't prime the atomizer first, put it on the tank, filled the tank with juice and then let it sit for a few minutes to let the wick completely saturate, it's very likely that the burning taste you're getting is a dry hit (the wick isn't wet with juice and is burning the wick).

I have both the Triton 2 and the Subtank Mini and by far, I prefer the Triton. It's the best thing for mouth to lung hits and it's consistent every time. I liked it so much I bought two more. The Subtank seems to run hot on the 1.5 ohm coil, even when I build on the RBA part, it's still not hitting right for me. YMMV

How much research have you done into what the FDA is proposing for e-cig hardware and juices? If it were me, I'd wait to see what new rules and regulations are going to be put into place before spending all that money to open up a shop, but that's just me. Welcome to Vapor Talk.

Mint/menthol bubblegum would be okay... so would banana cinnamon roll but put all four together?

Welcome.

Got in two 125 ml bottles of Feels Like a Nut from EC Blends today.

If the flavor of the 18 mg is the same as the lower mg juice, why not mix to two together to get something in between? Mix the 18 and 12 and get somewhere near 14 mg or so.

Originally, EC Blends sent me a 5 ml bottle of FLaN at 0 mg nic as a sampler. Who knew I'd get so hooked on this stuff? I started at 12 mg nic and gradually dropped it down to 3 although I'm thinking to try 2 or even 0 one of these days to see how that flies.

3 mg nic, 40 PG/60 VG, extra sweetener in the 125 ml bottle. Wish they'd increase the size of the biggest bottle on this one. I let it sit for at least a week if not two before breaking it open.

Do they make oven mitts with bling?

I can't imagine having to go up to that level of power, the vapor and flavor I get on my 7 - 9 watts is more than satisfying for me. Even though I have mods that can go high in power doesn't mean I have to.

Compenstine has Fadora Vapor and I've found his juices to be consistent and high quality. The customization to your tastes and the care he puts into his juices is of the highest quality. I order from him quite often. My constant though has been one flavor by EC Blends. I've been buying it by the 120 ml bottle for well over two years (maybe closer to three now?), with never a change in quality, consistency or flavor. They only make the juice once you put your order in so it's fresh every time. That said, I always order two to three weeks before I need it so it can sit for a while before I need it.

Sorry to hear that you got such a bad tank that was supposed to make up for the bad ohm meter.

Sounds like it's toast. With it not working right, I wouldn't take the chance that you could have a catastrophic failure and have it blow up. Better to get a new battery/mod and chalk this one up as a learning experience of what not to buy on Ebay.

I have to agree, Jason. When you first start vaping, there are so many different things to try to remember. TC is just one more setting that will easily overwhelm a new vaper. Learn to walk before you get into the jet...

Done, done, done, doooone.
