NEW TO VAPING-LOVE IT BUT NEED HELP!!!!

[BeautifulSoul]

HEY, I just started vaping to quit traditional cigs and I am happy to report that I went 5 DAYS without buying cigs but, I have a few issues and questions I am hoping you all can help me with...
1. I am an all-day vaper, starting from when I wake up, until I go to sleep..I also take long deep hits from my personal vaporizer, causing it to get hot and my battery to blink I currently have what I believe to be a T3 Ecto tank with just a screw-on battery I got from my local porn shop. Help me please! What I am asking is what kind of set up should I get, that will allow me to take the long deep drags I find to be satisfying, without compromising the tank, battery, heating filament- whatever is going wrong here! I originally was using the Kangertec plastic 3.0 ml tank, but found this one to be leaky and gurgly. That is when I got the Ecto tank and it was doing okay at first, but now it's screwing up. I love vaping and it has caused me to absolutely HATE cigarettes, but I am a smoker, so until I get the right equipment, I will have to use cigs.....PLEASE HELP ASAP!!!!!

i am sure you will get lots of suggestions, but i recommend you get an iStick, a couple aspire vivi novas, and a couple boxes of BVC coils. everything together should be less than $80. to me, it's the best setup you can get for the money.

eleaf istick and nautilus mini will give you what you are looking for at the best price and without rebuilding. you could then buy a rebuildable tank like a kayfun when you are ready or even a dripper if u want to go that route. there is a lot of customization to how you want to vape once you get into it

I take a kanger emow with me and love it. Use my MVP at home.

I also like a long draw and have been really happy with my MVP and my vv3 (both at 101vape). I also really like the Tesla Spider(discount vapers). All of these are at least variable voltage. I typically use protanks, the mini and the full size. My preference with coils (super easy to replace or to rebuild) is a 2.2.-2.5 ohm range.

I've been hearing really great reviews for the iStick and believe it'd be an easy one to use, as well. Congrats on your 5 days! MAJOR accomplishment.

Your first issue regarding the battery you are using is VERY common, and most of the "stick" type batteries out there have the safety shut off. For that matter most regulated devices will have this same safety feature as well. If you are the type of vapor that likes to take LONG slow hits then you will run into the timeout issue a lot. Suggestion is to find a device (Mod or battery) that has a Longer Shut off timer or experiment with a Mechanical Mod that will allow you to take those longer hits. Also contributing to your problem is the tank you are using and the fact that it takes at least a few seconds to get up to the right temperature until it starts producing the amount of vapor you like and by that time your timer is almost up. If you do not want to get into "rebuilding" yet then I agree that you should give the Nautilus Aspire tank (with the BVC style heads) a try with a MOD that does not have a short safety cut off or a Mechanical Mod.

One thing I might add is to try a Kanger T-2.

It's older tech but it is a top coil clearo and has a warmer vapor than bottom coil units.
$2.99 for the complete unit

$2.99 for a pack of 5 replacement coils

I have been using these for years, they don't leak and they don't gurgle unless you installed the head or filled wrong.

Get yourself an iStick, MVP, or Magnetic Bolt and either a Protank II or Aspire clearo. You should be very satisfied with this setup.

For a beginner looking to get off smokes, I'd recommend a Protank III: http://www.canvape.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=V3IIIPROTANK
or a Genitank: http://www.canvape.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=Genitank
Start simple with a battery, but get a variable voltage: http://www.canvape.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=1600spinner
Don't forget a charger and cable: http://www.canvape.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=USBPS

Done!

I like the Aspire mini nautilus. I used the pro tank II for a while but had the gurgling issue and went through coils very quickly.

 

[Peter Shukin]

Yes, the Protank III and Genitank use dual coils. Anyways, the Kanger dual coil revised, are awesome. I pump 15 watt into them with my Vamo V5, and they just pump for premade coils! The nautilus vertical coils are another way to go as well... haven't tried them but would like to.
