Whats your current set up?

I have been vaping two weeks now, and am curious to what everyone's set ups are. Pictures are welcomed and encouraged!

My current set up:

I Just moved off my Kbox Mini 50W that I have been using for my first two weeks vaping. Currently using my new Sigelei 150W box mod, with a Atlantis 2. My Kbox was using 0.5 Ohm and I couldn't really get it over 26W before it started tasting harsh, My Sigelei is running smooth at 65-70W on a 0.3 Ohm. Currently vaping a local brands 70/30 mix of green apple. Only flaw is it seems like my Sigelei drinks juice like a Drip. lol

What you guys got?

Currently using my gold color Sigelei 100W Plus with a fat man RDA, dual coil at net 0.8 ohm. Been thinking of switching up or doing a new build on this, but it's a good vape and the coils have been holding up so well that I hate to tear down the build.

My current set up:

Been using the Sigelei 150 too along with the Sigelei Elite sub ohm tank also this 18350 Caravela and Derringer rda. Both working pretty good I gotta say

Two weeks and you are on a Sig 150? Nice! I used ego's for six months before I bought a K101 with an igo-w rda.
I use a nice Chi-You clone w/ a V2 orchid tank, also a Stingray clone with an old Kayfun 3.1 Do love my Sig 150
with an Arctic tank for after dinner etc, and a complete set of ISticks. Still use quality Ego's with nautilus minis,
18 mg nic for work. Just starting to collect...

Thanks I have a question (still new to most things) when you say 'Clone' what exactly does that refer to? I've heard the term alot but never really understood it. I used Ego's a while back when I tried to change over but i always messed up the coils fast because I was trying to get big clouds out of a small vape lol. Another question, whats your opinion on the Nautilus, and Arctics? I always hear positive reviews on both them and the Atlantis series.

Which of those tanks do you like most? like Pro's and Con's?

Chinese copies of the real thing. Some are good, and some are junk.

Is the cheaper price worth the risk of it not being that good? How much cheaper are they?

It's really hit or miss. They usually are 10x cheaper. A good example is the Aeolus atomizer in the picture I posted above. That one is an authentic that costs $85. The clone here is $9. The machining isn't as fine as the authentic, but it's not too bad, and the coil building posts are shit, but usable.

The best thing to do is, if you see something you might like, ask or search the forums for advise. There is pretty much nothing that someone hasn't at least tried before. There is a lot of junk coming out of China that isn't worth trying, as it seems many Chinese manufacturer's are clueless of what the US & European markets want

I see what you mean, there ALOT cheaper lol. I might purchase a drip off there to give it a shot, been wanting to purchase one just wanted my new rig alot more.

Any Drip clones you'd recommend giving a shot?

 

[Robert B]

Can't recommend any clones, but you might want to watch some videos on coil building, wicking, and ohm's law before diving into drippers.
There is the authentic JayBo Indestructible that I can recommend. $32.50 from Steam Distribution

Sweet! Alright man I'll read into it, I did make build the RDA on my Kbox Mini that came with it, it wasn't too difficult, but the coils came pre-rolled so that might be where I have a hard time learning.

It's really super simple if you put your mind to it. Here's a calculator to help you figure out the resistance you want to vape at. enter the gauge wire you want to use, enter your target resistance, enter the inside diameter of the coil you want to build, and it tells you how many wraps to reach the resistance you want.
This calculator will also help you become familiar with ohm's law, if you don't already know. Important to know if you want to build coils, but even that is simple..
