I Slipped And Went Backwards In Vaping.

After six or seven years I am back where I started. Back to my mechanical mods, Rocket and Kayfun rebuildables (have about 12 of each) with the only changes being changed over to nic salts in them. Wife vaping eco's and Vision spinners now when we go out. Have coils coming out my ying yang that I rebuilt years ago. Used to love my mechanical with kayfun in my tool bag with a 4 inch curved drip tip. Would have it sitting by a furnace or fireplace and customers would always ask me what the torch is for. LOL We will see all this old school leads to this time. CHEERS!

Been Away From Vaping For A Couple Years. Need A New Mechanical Mod

i've been a away from vaping for a while and i'm sure stuff has changed. i recently dug out my joye 510 stuff and have really liked it again over analogs. either way looking for a new mechanical mod around 50-60 bucks preferably with a 510 connector and can accommodate a vision mini nova. also one that will take a 18650 batt. doesn't have to but since i still have a few 18350 batts laying around i wouln't mind something that also will take the shorter batts as well.  

Thinking About Downgrading From Mod To Rechearable

Well I bought a mod and a kayfun and after about a week of fiddling and trying to get it to work its just way too much of a hassle so I am probably going to sell it to my friend that wanted a mod and kayfun anyway. Now I currently tried to upgrade from mini nautilus and vision spinner 2 to mod but I kind of want to downgrade even further since I went through 2 vision spinners and 2 mini nautlius in about a month and a half so obviously I am not happy. Im sure you all know why i hate the mini nautilus. But now i was thinking about going back to the Halo g6 starter kit that i got started with vaping. When i look back it was so hassle free, convenient, and i didnt attract attention like the bigger batteries etc which are usually frowned upon by people in the general public. I use 12mg so I was wondering to make up for the smaller battery and vapor that i should upgrade to 18mg? Yes I know im going to end up spending like another $100 for a starter kit and halo ejuice which is expensive since its $20 for 30ml and other ejuice doesnt seem to work in the g6 cartridges. I really need a 2nd opinion on what people think of this plan. The g6 should last me awhile unlike the vision and mini nautilus which id have to keep rebuying which is like $50 a month even though i buy off mtbakervapor which has much lower prices than halo even though its also prob lower quality. What do you guys think? Are mods just an addiction hobby thing that smokers actually need.  

Glad I Started When I Did

I joined ECF back in August of 2017. I was sixty-five years old and had been smoking 25-30 cigarettes a day for 40+ years. I began vaping at the same time win the hope I could at least cut down. I dual used for months, continually cutting back on cigarettes. I smoked my last cigarette on May 11, 2018 - I am coming up on my three year anniversary. When I began, I vaped 24mg nicotine. Now I alternate between 3mg and zero nic.

Given how incredibly positive vaping has been for me, I am in shock at recent events. I was down to two working mods. I have ordered four mods, some tanks and a bunch of coils. I am still able to buy some eliquids where I live - but many of my favorites from Halo have been discontinued. I still have some outstanding hardware orders that I hope get delivered.

The treatment of vaping in the media has been a one sided disgrace, and propaganda works. Over the years when I have mentioned to people that I quit by vaping, they respond, ‘so you quit smoking by picking up a habit that is even more dangerous’.

I am set for at least a year. Fortunately I have kicked my addiction to nicotine - I recently vaped zero nic for a month. If I was just starting out, it would truly be panic time, and I would go back to cigarettes for sure. I suspect that many will do just that. Happy I started when I did.  

Kayfun L + Drip Tip Getting Hot

Just as the title says..just bought a kayfun lite +/ Russian 91% clone, and the drip tip gets hot after a few hits..using mvp 2.0 that only goes to 11 w ( which is where I usually vape) with 1.7 coil/cotton wick..should I just look into another drip tip made of a different material? This is my first rta..my protank 2 tip never got hot even when chain vaping..the tank would warm up pretty good, but never the drip tip.  

A Replacement For My Spinner Ii's.

Maybe this isn't the right thread so I apologize if it isn't. I've been using Vision Spinners for the past six years. Yep. Six years off cigarettes. I can't find Vapros Spinners anymore and am looking for a replacement. I like the pen style batteries and have tried a couple of replacements: The Aspire CF and EVOD. Not cutting it for me. Just not getting that throat hit.

Yeah, I'm old school but I like the feel of the pen style in my hand. Any suggestions? Money isn't a factor.  

Mr Totle Puffers New Order

Well lately I have been wanting to do this :



what this is is basically is a starter kit . I only had one of these once which lasted a few days , after I rebuilt the coil head with 24 gauge and because the battery didnt have protection , it shorted out and that was it . So i bought another one of these , coil heads and some e-liquid as well . Personally I love vaping these at my house because they are nice and small and go well with jazz but idk its just something about the feeling when you vape on these things that makes it special . I think some of you know me , I have a **** load of other mods and atties but this and I am one of the few who started vaping on a mechanical mod with an RDA without ever getting a starter kit .  

Rest In Peace > 'kayfun Lite-plus V2'

To all the mouth to lung (Tootle Puffers) here ... There was a time when the famous "Kayfun Lite-Plus V2" was the gold standard when it came to single coil / higher ohm / low amp Tootle Puffing.

Now that this atomizer (to include all the Chinese clones of it) are so very hard to come by (to include spare parts), has anyone here replaced there old Kayfun Lites with the new "Kayfun Lite 2019" atomizer ?

I just ordered a couple of Chinese clones of the Kayfun Lite 2019 so I can make the big changeover.

Good bye to the sweet Kayfun Lite-Plus V2
Almost 6 years vaping on this
Rest in Peace ....

Some Questions After A Long Break Billet Box

Hi ,

Was an active member for quite a while. Gave away all my vaping gear apart from two billet box mods. A 2015 and 2017.

I've dusted them off. Bought some eLiquid from old Old faithful halo.

What are people running in their BB? I've got a box of 510 cartomizers. Should I look at something else ?

I've been on nic gum for the past few years..and need to get off it. So back to vaping ..thanks for the help.

I noticed since I gave vaping away reos mods has closed. And nic salts are now an option..how quickly things change .  

Mechanical Mods???

So me and my frwinds usually end up getting the same build, not because we're trying to fit in but because we are all trying to get something better. Unfortunately I'm sort of bored with that whole gig and my newest eye candy has become mechanical mods, however I don't know that much about them nor what the best one on the market is, at least below $100 that is. Any ideas/tips??
