I have only been vaping around 12 months and I am a little bewildered and ripe for being conned by unscrupulous sales people so I plead for some honest advise or even a 'you prat, it can't be done!'
My entry came in the form of an Aspire Pock Ex, which was soon replaced with a Voopoo Drag 3 on the recommendation of a friend. With the Aspire, I needed bellows on my neck to get a hit - ex-smoker of roll ups and associated substances for 35+ years - I was told by the sales person that 'it's foolproof and simple'. Or was that the tattoo on my forehead?
Anyway, the Voopoo has opened up a whole new world of 'woofers and tweeters; slimline salad-dressing...etc' - Not the Nine O'Clock News for those old enough to remember it!
The nitty gritty then: I use 20mg nicotine, pre mixed salts in TPP tank with 1.2 ohm coils. It was working ok but I was getting leaky residue as I like to burn at around 10-15 watts so I can have a looooong 5-6 second draw. I also like the bottom vent almost fully open.
Recently, I visited my 'friendly, local Evolution Vaping Store' for some supplies, help and advise. After much bluff and bluster, I became the 'proud?' owner of two different tanks and differently rated coils. I should have mentioned that I have been using 1.2 Ohm coils pretty successfully up until this point in TPP tanks.
However, my style of vaping is better suited to a higher impedance but the coils aren't available - apparently - in 1.6 Ohms for TPP tanks, hence the new tanks and coils.
Well, it certainly stopped the 'leaky residue', in fact it stopped full stop. After 1 day with the advised set up, it was like vaping a bonfire, much coughing - even at 8 watts, and a full 36 hours and dead coil. I returned to the shop to be told 'coils can burnout in 1 day sometimes' blah, blah, blah.
So, short of headbutting the shopkeeper and lecturing him on unwarranted and inaccurate guidance, all I really want want is some independent advise/guidance on the best set up for my vape and the way I like to use it for a satisfying nicotine and vapour hit. Or if it's not possible, that's ok too.
I try to use low sugar liquids to preserve coils, but still need my N I C O T I N E!!
I eagerly await a response.
