I’m sure your vape collection looks something like this. If not, just read this post again in six months! How did my desire to quit smoking cigarettes lead to my current collection of vape paraphernalia?
It all started simple enough. An E-GO 500mAh battery and the standard plastic cartomizer filled with some free House Juice at 18mg nicotine. I began using my pen like it contained the last sources of oxygen. One successful smoke free week into my new endeavor, I awoke and noticed that my battery took no charge overnight.
Two things that I must have in the morning are caffeine and nicotine. Caffeine, check. Nicotine…nicotine…NICOTINE!!!! I had no cigarettes, no charger, and a huge headache. This situation lead me back to my local vape shop for an upgraded battery. I chose a Vamo variable voltage/wattage Advanced Personal Vaporizor (APV) and upgraded my tank to an AeroTank by Kanger because my original showed it’s lack of quality.
My choice of the Vamo APV required an additional purchase of two rechargeable 18350 batteries and a battery charger. I noticed an immediate difference in the flavor of the juice and I was blowing bigger clouds. As a former two decades long smoker, the bigger hit gave me the satisfaction other quit smoking techniques lacked. All was well. I ended up having a great day!
Ten days passed when my AeroTank began to spew e-liquid down my throat. A new atomizer was the solution at a cost per unit of $5. Instead, I left the store as the proud owner of an Aspire Nautilus! Another improvement to my vaping experience. The gurgling of the AeroTank had been replaced with the smooth and tasty pulls of the Nautilus. Vaping bliss and a small collection of hardware within a month.
I found a Sweet Tobacco House Blend from my local shop and I must have vaped 500ml of it. I was good to go until the day I was out with family and ran out of juice! I googled, yelped, et al. and found a Vape Store in the area I was. I explained that I enjoyed sweet tobacco flavors and they suggested Space Jam Eclipse. Premium Juice?
The game had changed. The flavor of the Premium brand trumped any House Blend I had tried. I began seeking out all the different sweet tobacco vapes and a small mountain of vape mail became a daily standard. My research into juices kept pointing me to building coils and RDA’s and flavor, and cloud chasing…. I like clouds.
I bought a Nemesis clone, a Patriot RDA, and built my first coils.
(flashing lights!!!!)
Dripping was undoubtedly The Best delivery system. This decision led to the purchase of four Sony VTC rechargeable batteries, an IntelliCharger, Kanthal, organic cotton, and of course, new juice.
I have become passionate about my new hobby. Subsequent purchases have included a Stingray Clone, an Authentic Enigma RDA, and my new baby here!
I have updated this setup just a bit. I replaced the drip tip with a Pyrex tip and it cools the vape down perfectly! (Another purchase)! So, I see how I ended up with all of my Vape Stuff and sadly/joyously I expect the search for the Perfect Vape to continue. What’s that? A Box Mod?
