Got one of these when I got my provari and I just don't use it, it still has about 6 whicks left, they're $140 new, I'd take $50
-
It's the first hit and every hit that's dry, I even let it sit and whick for 30 minutes after the first dry hit. I usually vape with the Aspire for organic 100% VG juice, and the protank-2 for thinner juices (I like a cooler vape for fruity flavors) I've also been trying the unitank, which is distinctly meh, more gurgling than the protank-2, also plastic, which i'm not a fan of. The organic juice is 100% vg, I just figured since my aspire bdc has no problem at all with it the kanger would do fine, I'll try some thinner juice and see if the aerotank does any better. Troy: I'm from Greeley, wasn't aware of the vapefest, i might have to check it out. Thanks, guys

So, I just got a brand new kanger aerotank a couple weeks ago, filled it up, let it sit for a while, screwed it onto my provari, and took a hit. It was just like when i first got the protank-2, the hit was burnt, practically no juice went where it was supposed to. So I did what i do with my protank 2 which is turn the coil head grommet around to open up the path to the wicking material. that worked, for about 30 seconds, then it gurgled like crazy, and even leaked a whole bunch. After cleaning everything, I turned the grommet back around and reinstalled it, and it worked for 3 or 4 puffs, then started burning again due to dry hits. Is this designed to only work with certain juices? or is it just a bad design? for the record, I had my provari set to 3.7 volts and was using one of the sweet-vapes organic juices. please help, i've got the aerotank and a full box of coil heads and i'd hate to have to throw them away.

i got a couple of those too (available at the ecig), and i like them too, my only complaint is that they tend to come off the carto at inopportune times, i also use the ming style stainless tips from smoktech
-
emdcc's aren't bad, they're a bit like a much bigger smoktek dcc, only the vapor is the slightest bit cooler, i ultimately ended back up with regular 2.0 ohm boge's, though. for me, nothing compares

What Was The Worst Ecig You Tried
JonHitThingWithRock replied to vapinmamma's topic in General Vaping Discussion
Definitely the Blucigs, as it was the only one i owned before getting an eGo, battery life was bad, only lasted about half an hour, throat hit was sporadic, but their flavors were actually quite good, unfortunately, an entire box of cartomizers was bad, luckily i discovered this forum before my 30-day money-back guarantee was up, ordered an eGo, and eventually got bigger and better stuff and now have a puresmoker legacy -

JonHitThingWithRock replied to bass-n-vape's topic in General Vaping Discussion
I'm kinda thinking that's what it might have been, but the fact that they don't really hold more liquid than the regulars make them kind of a fail in my book -

Try Boge's, seriously, they're very consistent, and a much smoother vape than dual coil, if you fill them right, they work wonderfully. I used smoktech dcc's for quite a while, and when i came back to boge's it was a night and day difference. Regular Boge, BTW, NOT the XL, there's something horribly wrong with those. -
Stalking The Mailman Thread.....
JonHitThingWithRock replied to bamsbbq's topic in General Vaping Discussion
Sadly, i already gave the lot to my neighbor, i tried sweet-vapes' fudge brownie at "mostly vg", and smartvapes' sv101, and the taste is better than cartos, but it's still a mess, and i still get more dry-ish hits than good ones, and after several months of only using cartomizers, they're just way easier and less messy than dripping. -
Stalking The Mailman Thread.....
JonHitThingWithRock replied to bamsbbq's topic in General Vaping Discussion
turns out i still don't like dripping, now waiting for 3 boxes of boge's and 5 bottles of juice from sweet-vapes -
I, for one, don't believe that the sky is falling. Strict regulations will more than likely (imo) affect the pre-filled carto / beginner packaging sector a small amount, and the niche market the rest of us live in very little, if at all, I doubt anyone in the fda even knows that you can buy an empty cartomizer and fill it yourself with juice. Keep in mind that you can still buy a bag of tobacco, a box of tubes, and an injector and make your own cigarettes for less than a dollar a pack, while pre-packaged cigarettes are around $8 a pack, depending on where you live. Broad, sweeping regulations, like the prohibition of alcohol, ultimately fail, you could still obtain alcohol illegaly or make your own until prohibition got crushed under the weight of its own stupidity. Governmet is too big and too slow to kill off e-cigs altogether, and after going through all the revisions and changes, the final bills that get passed rarely end up affecting much of anything. And with tobacco companies come lobbyists, and if tobacco companies want to make money with e-cigs, they will, because lobbyists run washington, that's why nearly everything that's passed in the last 30 years has benefited people who can afford them. I think more and more tobacco companies will buy out e-cig companies once they see the potential profits, and the inevitable losing battle of trying to kill them, and with big tobacco companies and their lobbyists behind e-cigs, i'd be surprised not to see fda regulations wither and die, meanwhile the rest of us who buy giant devices running off enormous flashlight batteries, getting our juice from mom and pop shops will be largely unaffected while big tobacco, and big government do their silly dance. I could be wrong, the FDA may be plotting to destroy e-cigs altogether, and big tobacco may be buying up e-cig companies only to shut them down so that their dying business model can limp along for just a little bit longer, but i severely doubt it. Free markets deliver what the people want in spite of governmet. There are already nicotine alternatives in the works for e-juice, which i'd imagine could eventually eliminate the need for nicotine in e-juice, which would nullify any fda regulation involving nicotine, and in the meantime, if big tobacco wants to join our club, make e-cigs, and profits from them, then they also bring their advertising dollars, business sense, and lobbyists, which are bigger guns than we've ever had. So I say welcome to the party, big tobacco, bring all your friends

when this happens, try using a needle injector to put some liquid at the bottome of the cartomizer, or spin it down to the bottom, from what i understand, that's where the action is so it's where you want your juice to be -
What Tube Mod Would You Recommend?
JonHitThingWithRock replied to mse12's topic in General Vaping Discussion
Another option is the Legacy from PureSmoker, if you get the kick and the extension thing, it's variable wattage, also, not chinese crap -
just a quick note on high (or regular) resistance dual-coil cartomizers, you have to have high voltage to use them, they simply don't work with an eGo battery, way back when i used eGo batteries i got a couple 2.5 ohm dcc's and they made almost no vapor and absolutely zero throat hit, so wait on those until you have your 5volt setup

Vixenvapors Tobaccoberry Suicide Flavor?
JonHitThingWithRock replied to Soberrider's topic in General Vaping Discussion
haven't tried any liquid from them, but tobaccoberry suicide is a hilarious name -
are you talking about a tank and atomizer setup, like the eGo-T or eGo-C? or a cartomizer with a tank sleeve, there's a pretty big difference

I Think My Tastebuds Are Broken
JonHitThingWithRock replied to myrielleak's topic in Troubleshooting & Technical Issues
i have kinda special needs taste buds, so i feel your pain. If I switch to a similar but different flavor on the same day, whether i brush my teeth or not, the new flavor tastes just like the old, i have to either switch to a completely different flavor, or wait until the next day -
E-Power 18650 Issue
JonHitThingWithRock replied to Tagsanstuff's topic in Troubleshooting & Technical Issues
with the cheaper stuff like e-power, it's good to have spares laying around (i picked up 2 e-powers when i got mine, 1 ego-style 18650, and one regular 18650), sometimes they'll last years, sometimes weeks. take a look at the Legacy from PureSmoker.com, it's purely mechanical, no electronics to go wrong (except what's in the battery you use with it). it is more expensive, but infinitely better made (in America, of all places), plus you can use the 18650's you already have. -
My Wall Charger Quit Working

Ahh! My Drip Tip Just Broke!
JonHitThingWithRock replied to mse12's topic in General Vaping Discussion
look at the canon powershot line, i've owned 2, and i've been extremely happy with them. you may wanna take your nikon to a camera repair shop first, though, you might be able to get it fixed, or possibly sell it, also they may have used ones you could pick up for a song
