Good morning AUvians! Happy Sunday!! Rylee arrived at 5:14 this morning so I’m officially a Pop Pop!!!
I can assume pictures will be forthcoming at some point?
The Lumi wins the beauty contest hands down. It is the most attractive of the disposable tanks I have and has the best AF control. But so far performance is not so hot. Mine is reading .27ohm and I have tried it at 30 W to 40 W and the flavor is muted at best but really I think it is more a cotton flavor. This has prevented me from getting though a whole tank because why put up with that when you have, say, a Mystique right next to it with the same liquid and spot on flavor?
I have another Lumi and will ditch this first one soon and let you know how round two goes. I don't remember doing it, but maybe I scorched it with too much power right out of the box as Mystique has lower ohms. I don't remember doing that but I did toast a fresh Jewel right out of the box by not letting it soak long enough before first fire. Good thing they come in three packs!
Hard for me to say because I'm not in it for the Nic so sometimes set the mod down and forget about it. The Mystique next to me has been empty now for at least six hours and I'm too distracted to care to fill it or switch. So time is not a good measure with me. I don't think it is too bad on juice though. Nothing like a baby beast or TF4 or TF8. Maybe twice the mileage per ml as TF4?
Also, I can't get my mystiques to hold 3mm. And I have measured with a syringe a few times. More like 2.7 or 2.8 ml, even when accounting for what the needle holds.
Thank you, the comparisons with the Smok tanks help.
I'm not sure I'm in it for the nic either. Right now, my DIYs are 0mg nic because my nic tastes funky and the commercial ones are 3mg. Using both, I'm probably vaping 1.5mg. However, I think I have an oral fixation. I seem to want to fill my mouth with flavor all the time and keep it active with inhale/exhale, lol.
@Shawn Hoefer Have you tried any of the other disposables? I was curious about the Blitz Mate.
I'm getting very conflicted here. The Jewels are producing far better flavor than some of my RTAs with the exception of a few, and even those are just on par. I'm either losing confidence in my building skills or thinking that these pre-built, vertical mesh coils can't be beat for flavor. What's your personal experience so far?
And speaking of vertical mesh coils, how would you compare the Vandy Vape Mesh RTA which is a rebuildable vertical mesh coil to the pre-builts/drop-ins?
I have a Blitz Mate, and like it well enough. It vapes about like the Jewel/NuNu/Mystique, and better than the Lumi. However, it is wide open with no AFC at all. On the other hand, it has a top cap for the fill port rather than a silicone plug.
I vape almost exclusively on fused claptons and find the warmth and flavor on those slightly better than any mesh. That said, I prefer the mesh drop in/mesh disposables to the mesh RTAs. In order to keep things from burning, the wattage mesh coils need to be run at typically does not provide the warmth I like.
I think I've come to the conclusion that I like my vapes tepid. Has anyone ever said that before?
Congratulations Mark! Cute lil bug!
The house the kids bought is the oddest thing. Besides being nasty it's so odd. Locks everywhere, caulked screwheads, splashes of rust colored something on the walls...day 3 tomorrow and it feels like Friday already. Lol I've been washing walls, spackling and tomorrow is primer day, just for a change of pace.
