Due to the F*CKING FDA!!!! No -- there is nothing to worry about! They just have to put a disclaimer on there now.

New to the game, I want to quit smoking.
- Thread starter deadmau5whomp
- Start date
Welcome to the party @gakudzu ! Been helping Mr. deadmau5whomp get off the stinkies we have. Quite the conversation going and we thinks we got him a proper setup enroute.
ah okay good lolIt is their disclaimer, because none of the batteries on the market are actually intended to be used with ecigs or mods
This is especially true of mech mods and hybrid mechs. Those are the ones you mostly see in the news
thank ya thank ya, yes welcome to the party lol i'll be going "up in vapor" in no time hahaWelcome
so why would you need like a 220w box? is the one i got not strong enough?

Keep it simple for success. 75 watts is more than ample to start with.
Few actually need such a thing as 220 watts - especially when you are first starting out. My first regulated mod only went up to ...... 15 WATTS OF SUPER BITCHIN' POWER, lol
For starting out it's plenty strong. 220W MODs are for those that really like HEAT (a little fire in their pie hole).
I'll admit it, I have a couple of them now.... However, I still don't vape over 60-75W. The awesome thing about those MODs are the battery life though. Example: I have the SMOK Alien (and just bought another today) -- Dual 18650 batteries. With the tank i'm currently using everyday I can vape all day on a single set of batteries.

Yeah, I have a Triade 250W (triple batteries!) and a few mods that were twice the price of that.
But I still take two 60W Isticks that are about a year old to work with me everyday so I can vape my way through all kinds of stress. Also, my old 50W Istick with a built in Lipo. These are still my daily drivers. They are easy to use and have never failed me.
Then I come home and play.
Those Picos are then next generation after those Isticks - great mods that get the job done with minimal fuss.

ah i see. everyone around here is like "look at that cloud" yeah i am not interested in making a big cloud. haha
so what kind of battery life can i expect? i work 12 hour shifts.
LOL No shit. I had one device for a year until I found this place. Within a couple of months I've got 4 new mods, 6 new tanks, couple thousand feet of wire, coil jigs, etc, etc, etc.I'll use gakudzu as an example... he recently got into RTA (Rebuild-able Tank Atomizer) and coil building... and now can't stop.

Depends on how much you vape - I'm allowed to vape at work, so I vape all day long and rarely if ever have to change the batteries, but I'm usually vaping at about .8 ohms and tend to chain vape if the situation allows
okay then i should be good then lol what about changing flavors, do i have to change a coil every time? i have read to just put the coil in a plastic bag until i use the flavor again? and just put a new one in?
Using my PICO (before upgrading to the Alien) using the .5Ω coils, I could easily go 12 hours. My habit was to go vape for about 5-10 minutes about every hour while @ work. This was my "habit" while smoking, I didn't want to "disturb" all habits at one time... baby steps for me. I did always carry a spare battery (always in a plastic container -- NEVER LOOSE IN YOUR POCKET).
GET ONE!!!
They also make "battery condoms"

oh yeah for sure i ordered one of those, not the condom lol, i actually got 3 batteries instead of 2. a charger, and a case for the batteries.Using my PICO (before upgrading to the Alien) using the .5Ω coils, I could easily go 12 hours.

I personally never went to that trouble. Just put a new flavor in my tank and just kept vaping. The old flavor goes away after a bit.
AWESOME!!! That right there is thinking ahead of the game. Good job!
night dude talk to you later. i am off tomorrow woohooOk everyone --- I gotta head to bedz ... 1:30AM here and I gotta works tomorrow.
Life sucks but someone has to pay the bills and buy vape supplies!

There are some strong flavors that will own a tank and coil and that method works.
But when I was using prebuilt coils, I did like Phantom, just added the juice on top and waited for the old flavor to go away
I usually don't change coils, or wicks, if the juices taste similar. Like from one fruit to another, or one dessert flavor to another. But anything with mint in it I keep separate. Mint tends to linger a looong time, and doesn't mix well with many flavors. At least to me it doesn't.

Make sure you turn it off before putting it in your pocket. It should fit fine though.
XXX is awesome

i will probably just use the 3mg he gave me until my juice arrives, they might all get here at the same time though.
awesome i got that and the capone. like i said i am a big fruit guy so i probably won't change too many flavor profiles i'll probably just throw it on top as wel

I won some TMaxx awhile back - that Pear Cake is some tasty shit
vaping.watch? is that tmaxx? just looked it up
I haven't tried the Pear Cake. Not big on pears, really. The Kentucky Bourbon Vanilla Custard, Orange Cream Bar, Homemade Apple Pie, and Cinnamon Dusted Doughnut are all delicious. And the Vanilla Mint Candy. I didn't love the Pina Colada, though. Too much pineapple for me I think. Gonna have to try the Pistachio Ice Cream on my next order. I lovvve pistachio ice cream lol.
gonna have to try the kentucky bourbon being from kentucky and all! lol i would like to just find a couple flavors i like but it looks like that is just impossible with all the combinations.
who is that made by?
oh is that the company
so on these batteries, i am not supposed to run them down very low? do i basically just charge it back up as soon as i get back home? and swap them out.
had to share this review i read on an ejuice. it definitely helped this newbie lol
