***The Vapers Lounge*** 3.0

Glad you're getting on with it Droolinggimp.

Before we go any further, DO NOT USE FOOD FLAVOURS IN ELIQUID. Just to be clear, many food flavours are oil based and that is not going to be good for your lungs. Buy flavours that are designed to be vaped by companies such as Favour Art, Cappella, etc.
As a first start I would buy a concentrate of a vlavour you like and then make that up and see how you get along. You can move up to making your own from individual flavours if you get along with it. I can highly recommend T-Juice or Chef's Flavours. They both have a good range of concentrates and are reasonably priced. Custards you need to steep for about a month before they taste right so bear that in mind when you mix. Fruit flavours are usually shake'n'vape.
I would buy a cheap jewelers scale from Ebay. It's much easier to mix by weight than volume.
 
I bought this, and now I feel like a dog flying a helicopter. I have NO idea what I'm doing.

I wanted a replacement for fags, and I jumped in the deep end. A more experienced friend put it together for me. I've also updated the firmware (?!!)

That's a big setup for a first dip in to vaping.
So, looks like you have yourself an RX200 and a Uwell Crown. Both are decent but are a little large for a carry-around. I have several RX200s but they stay at home.

So, what do you want to know? Fire away.

That tank is good at around 50W by the way.
 
That was my first question actually! Thanks!

What about temperature, or is that more to do with the juice?

Also, I've got juice from juicemeister which seems pretty nice, but do you have a preferred retailer, or do you mainly make your own?

It does seem like a bit step for vaping, but I thought "buy cheap buy twice". :-D

Well, the Crown with either the 0.5 Ohm or 0.25 Ohm coils can run in temperature mode or normal power mode. You want the SS program on your device to run them in temperature mode.
For the 0.5s, 50W and 230 degrees C
For the 0.25s, 80W and 230 degrees C

For liquid, give Rejuiced or DragonRise a try. They are cheap and their liquids are pretty good. You will want 3 or 6mg with that setup.
 
New update for the VTC is bloody awful. Pre-heat has been added in a stupid way (as a specific value rather than as +20W or +10W etc) and the new interface is utterly terrible.
Gone straight back to 3.03.
 
Anyone recommended me a nice tank with prebuilt coils? Specifically for flavour. Getting really tired of building/re wicking RTA's once every few days.

Not a fan of the original Crown and the Smok tanks have all been garbage for flavour imo.

I am still a big fan of anything that uses Atlantis / Triton coils. The new Atlantis EVO coils are proving to be excellent for me for flavour.
Have a look at the Atlantis EVO tank. It's only 2ml but flavour is really good.
 
Compared to the iStick 50W it's about double the weight and at least double the volume.
I have 3 RX models (RX200, RX200S, and the DNA200 version) and none of them leave the house. They are just too bulky.

Menthis, if you want a good sized, very configurable mod then go for the Joyetech VTC Mini or vTwo Mini. Both are excellent mods, go up to 75W and can do TC with a variety of wires. Get a good quality 18650 battery and you're good to go. If you would prefer a device with a built-in battery then have a look at the Cuboid Mini by the same company.

For a tank, the Crown 2 is a decent one for direct lung if that's your thing. Not good for mouth-to-lung though if you vape that way. If I were after a tank for direct lung that took pre-built coils then the Crown 2 would probably be the one I would get at the moment.

The Atlantis EVO is worth a look too. I have two of them and really rate them for flavour. Very small capacity though.
 
I'll give you the same advice as I gave on the preious page to another user:

Goblin Mini V3 turned up today. Looks very nice. Build quality is good and I'm looking forward to building it with the single coil deck. Will report back once I've vaped it a bit tonight.
