First direct to lung hit... hmmmm....

I tried out a sub ohm eGo style device yesterday. It's the Atom Vapes Viper. The draw was so OPEN that taking a direct to lung hit was just the "natural" thing to do. I really hadn't planned on it but had never used a vape so easy to draw on.

Gotta say, not sure I liked that kind of hit at all! Don't think I'll deliberately try to do that more often.

Of course, I've been a mouth to lung smoker the entire 40 years of my smoking too so, I guess not liking the direct hit isn't surprising.

Welcome to the forums!

I'm kind of in that boat. I've tried it out, on occasion I use my DL tanks, but just prefer the MTL experience. Seems more natural to me, considering that I smoked that way, too. I personally didn't notice any major difference in flavor. Vapor, sure, LOL. But, I'm quite happy with my MTL tanks, I get fantastic flavor from them and I don't need storms clouds.

I was a hold out to the whole lung hit method as well. I was more than happy with a 1.0 or 1.2 ohm kanger coil head just puffing along all day, every day in (I believe) a Anyvape Davide.

One day, a very stressful day, I threw together a low nic, max-VG liquid and chunked a fatty coil into a dripper. I needed something a little more... oomphy than my regular coils. Just clicked, and I made the move over to just about everything being sub-ohm (I still semi-regularly MTL, airflow control is a big time necessity) and dove further into mechanicals, drippers, etc. I needed "more" from my vape and found it, now going back to the old Davide is like flirting with satisfaction.

You may not get there, you may be perfectly happy for the rest of your life up there. And there isn't a single thing wrong with that, perfectly normal, perfectly healthy. You're vaping for you, after all. Do what makes you feel satisfied and content - there's no magic anything except your own subjective happiness.

And, oh yes, welcome :)

I did this, too! I keep a couple flavors in higher VG for those occasional times when I want a bit more, but my main vape is MTL. Plus it's a much better stealth than DL.

It does take some getting used to if you've never done it before :p
Nice thing about vaping is that there is so much variety that you are free to vape the way that makes you happy.



I was a lung hit newport smoker, so when I switched, I kinda struggled until I found RDAs.
 
Though I'm not too concerned with the "stealth" aspect, I do like my MTL and I like devices I can put in my pocket and go out and about with. I'm even using a tiny vape pen for when I'm driving since it's so easy to hold and can hold it and hold the steering wheel at the same time! Of course, it only lasts for about two hours on a charge but it fits that little niche for me.

I did notice that the Viper seemed to deliver different flavor. That was interesting.

Got some more flavors of liquid coming today. I've been stuck in "tobacco flavors" for my entire time vaping. Time to branch out!

I started with 1.5 ohm coils and MTL hits on my pen. Within a week or two of having my pen I upgraded to A Kanger Subox Mini. I stayed with the 1.2-1.5 Coil for like a week and tried the .5 coil. Since then I haven't looked back and have been going with the lung hit since. IMO I get better flavor, bigger clouds and an all around more enjoyable vaping experience.

Welcome.

The first time I had a mouth to lung, I thought it was way to airy, but I liked the clouds. But the more I tried it the more I liked it. I did have to change my juice though since the stuff I liked on my pen was 24 mg, and when I went to a box mod dripper I noticed a lot of flavors that were not there on my pen. I also had to drop from 24 mg to 6, then to 3. As long as it helps you stay of the smokes though, you're good.
