Righto, nub to vaping here. Smoker for 15 years.
Want to buy a "starters" kit if poss. Looking at the Tornado or TITAN kit at the moment.
Recommendations? Considerations a nub would need?
EDIT: Screw it, gonna order a Titant Tank black kit.
Good shout on the tank, once you get to grips with how it all works and how your body reacts to different strength nicotine juices it's all gravy.
For all the guys just starting out with the tank system, I thought it'd be worth mentioning a few tips:
- if you get a burnt taste that means it isn't wicking properly: make sure the tank is properly fitted into the atty, give it a twist (sometimes the flap of plastic from the hole blocks the wick spike), take a few "dry hits" without pressing the button to suck some juice down the wick, or wait a minute or so for the juice to soak down (usually if you've been chain vaping this can happen). Also, if you happen to be lying in bed on your back, gravity is preventing the juice from getting to the wick so try facing it battery down and dry hitting it a few times.
- if you get a bubbling sound and get a harsher than normal hit with little vapour, especially when combined with a harder pull than normal, the atty may be flooded: remove the atty from the battery and clean out any liquid that's spilled through using a paper towel and blow any excess liquid back through from the battery end of the atty (should sort the hard pull). I also find tilting the tornado upwards (ie so the juice can't get to the wick) and taking a few drags until it starts to vape properly is an easy way to sort this. Worst case, remove the tank and vape directly from the atty until the excess fluid is burnt off (known as "tail piping"). I find tilting the ecig upwards is a quicker method of doing the same thing though.
Hope that helps with anyone having teething problems.
Oh yeah, it takes a bit for a new atty to get going so don't worry if you don't get any vapour straight away, keep at it until you've gotten through the primer and the juice comes through.
