So, here's the thread that I mentioned in the ECF Refugees that we really need -- I know I'm not the only one who is decidedly not into 'cloudz bro', but does want a great vape with rich flavor.
This type of vaper is called a "Tootle Puffer" over at ECF, but this is not ECF, thank all that's holy. I know a lot of folks really disliked that term, so I thought I'd stick with just a general description, which is really just a more-conservative style of vaping: some of us can't handle a lot of vapor because our lungs are too compromised from decades of smoking; some of us live with non-vapers who definitely don't want their homes fogged up; some of us may have the need to "stealth vape," at work or wherever, where lower wattage and higher PG produces clouds that are a lot sneakier. Or perhaps we prefer conservative vaping economically, because it doesn't go thru liters of ejuice like there's no tomorrow.
I fall into a lot of those categories: asthma, so high-VG, high heat, and massive vapor is right out of the question; husband who waves away my little PG wisps like the worst ANTZ you ever saw; and really cheap and tight-fisted, who prefers to use as little ejuice as I possibly can.
I also prefer the extremely tight draw that I was used to with cigarettes, the mouth-to-lung style of inhale; doing it any other way will never feel right to me. Cartos were great, but once I got used to Achilles RDAs, there was no going back even to Kayfuns, nevermind cartos; I'm too spoiled with rich flavor.
Some of us may prefer purchasing coils, for whatever reason, though that alternative may be going the way of the dinosaur, thx to the FDA. I started building coils strictly for economic reasons: it's a hell of a lot cheaper to buy wire and cotton, even expensive organic cotton pads, than buying pre-made coils, and self-built coils provide a lot more room for customization of the vape -- a real issue nowadays with all this sub-ohm crap that's available.
If you're a tight-draw/low-wattage/M2L conservative vaper, please join in! If you're a full-time cloud chaser... we really don't need to know how lame you think we are -- we vape this way because we like it.
Any info about vape hardware particularly well-suited to this style of vaping is VERY welcome! It's getting harder and harder to find!
