Hi guys, great site!
I'm a veteran vaper, I guess. I've been vaping for 11+ years. I didn't see a brick-and-mortar store or meet another person (in person) who vaped for the first four.
I helped myself along with a forum I think was called ecigforum.org, I can't recall. I bought joyetech products and used those terrible old tanks until cartomizers came out, which I thought were the best thing since sliced bread. People were making mods back then but I'm not particularly handy. I liked the carts because it was like 'fill it and forget it' for a week. Never wanted a harder hit than a fresh cart gave me.
I was mad when they stopped selling carts. OK, had to go to tanks. This to me was like having bought a phone and told that no phone company would support it after 3 years.
So I started using tanks with joyetech batteries and, lo and behold, the market is no longer supporting what I un-technically refer to as 'not sub ohm' products. Here we go again. I'm not crazy for any tank I've had anyway...the coils cost 3x what a cart did...
I don't like the non manual box mods on the market. My partner, who is a machinist, uses one. I can't find one I like. I want to build a manual. I'm given the impression that I have to be an engineer to build and run one, but I managed to get by with what we had 11 years ago.
I want a manual style battery arrangement that will work with a simple tank apparatus (drip is fine) that doesn't put out a huge mystery cloud. It should be safe enough and not too strong of a hit, just a medium type vape. I like to puff on my ecig throughout the day, like sipping a beverage, not slamming a shot.
All Joyetech ego batteries are is batteries contained in a stick anyway, and I don't see why a manual has to be so damned hard. I think that if I went to manual I might finally be in a place where I am not a slave to the market. The BF says that I'd have to hand build coils and wrap them in cotton. Isn't there a prefab part? Why is this so much more difficult than the original (2006) Joye tanks? They were terrible but simple...but then no one was around to tell me that they were 'hard'. I remember playing with the wires and cotton but not much about it. How can I go about this? Please advise...
Thanks, Nikki
