It may very well be but I will never buy an Aspire product after they messed up my favorite tank after buying the Anyvape line of tanks. I just cannot imaging a Spinner falling apart. I have used almost every brand of Ego style batteries out there and by far the entire Vision lineup have been the most reliable. Sure anyone can get a bad one of anything with the QC these companies have but in over a year and a half I have killed one Spinner and another one rests in the bottom of the lake. I have submerged them in saltwater, in the lake, left them out in the rain, dropped them and my wife even stuck one in a ceiling fan on the boat and sent it flying against the back wall about 30' away and other than the fire button sticking a little it still works fine. Let me know what you think about the Aspire battery I would not be totally against trying one (Maybe, still mad at Aspire) but with the success everyone I know on here and in real life has with Spinners I would just caution you from judging them based on one experience. I have 8 Spinner 1300mah, 12 Spinner 2s and the wife has a couple 650s and one 900. Some are since I started vaping in April of 2013 and so far I have had one die from use and they have been abused lol. Good luck no matter what you try!

My wife is way hotter than the boat :-) Hijacking is commonplace here, it will get back on track lol.
-
Come see me. I have had a boat forever but we really upgraded this year. 34' Sea Ray Sundancer with a Queen Bed and 2 Fulls, head, shower, central heat and air, generator and twin 454s. Bad boy! Of course I financed it for 12 years lol. Bad thing is there is a 41' Sundancer in our marina for sale and my wife is drooling. She is about to get a huge raise at work or change jobs (she has a great offer but her company has it in her contract they get to match) in the next couple months so what momma wants momma will get! We will boat year round though since the engine bilge and water tank are heated.
-
Yea my wife and I were buying a carton about every 3 days @ ~$55 with tax. Now my boat payment is $515 so my savings ALMOST makes that payment. I have a lot of debt too but am lucky my wife and I have very good jobs lol. If not we would be broke as a joke!
-
I thought yours looked a little high. I am just over 500 days and have saved roughly half what you have BUT that doesnt include my wife which doubles it. I for one have definitely seen the savings. Very little has changed with regards to income and we doubled our Boat expense with our purchase in the spring but still have more in the bank than before. I do not micro manage it but can DEFINITELY feel the savings in my bank account. We were spending roughly $550 per month on analogs and now we spend less than $100 on vaping all things considered.

in search of good juice from an online vendor

I only vape Fuzion Vapors liquids but not sure if they take Pay Pal?? -
Any tank with either an Ego or 510 fitting will fit your Evod Twist. I am not a Nautilus guy but I am sure they are one of the two lol.
-
Hard to give advice on it especially since I have tried a ton of batteries and the Spinner 2 is heads above all the rest of the Ego style batteries.

Weight Gain & Subsequent Weight Loss
bcartervol98 replied to bcartervol98's topic in Vaping Health & Safety
I have forgotten to keep up with my thread but am at 41.6lbs lost since 5-9-14 as of last Friday the 12th. -
My standard vape is 1.8ohm at 3.8v. I popped a coil at work last week and my spares were 2.2 and it was amazing the difference lol. Had been a long time since if didn't have a 1.8 spare. I changed it the second I got home.
-
I cannot imagine running my Spinners wide open using 1.8ohm coils 3.8v is my ceiling. Higher voltage doesn't equate more TH. What resistance is your coil? I could see burning a low resistance coil in a day or less running 4.8v
-
Vape all day anywhere I want. I run an auto dealer group and always have the same think in my pocket a Vision Spinner 2 with old school 2.5ml Davide Mini before Aspire screwed them up making them smaller and dual coil.
-
Brrrr. If I ever move again it will be further South lol. I have turned down some awesome jobs "up north" just because of the climate haha. Year round boater here, got to have my long summer! Welcome to VT!
-
Thats why I am completely hooked on the complex flavors that places like Fadora and Fuzion make.
-
Almost every straight fruit flavor tastes like "fruit flavored candy" as opposed to the actual fruit itself.
-
Its funny about 6 months after quitting vaping we traded vehicles and found a full pack between the seats. It felt good to just throw them away without second thought.
-
Propylene Glycol: Carries flavor, provides throat hit, much thinner than VG. Vegetable Glycerine: Vapor Producer, sweeter and much thicker than PG Both appear in products everyone use daily outside the realm of vaping. There is GREAT info in the stickied topics on basic stuff like this you might want to start there :-) Welcome!
-
All I have vaped for over a year is Endless Summer from Fuzion Vapor and all my wife has vaped in that same timeframe is ECBlends Peppermint. She uses 70og-30vg 24mg and Fuzion uses a 100% VG base and has no PG added except what is in the flavorings.
-
The effect of a low battery will cause slightly less vapor but OPs problem seemed more dramatic than the difference at the end of a charge cycle would cause. Am I thinking about this wrong?
-
No imo. I would say its your liquid. What is the PG-VG ratio? Nic content? The higher the PG% and Nic % the more throat hit.
-
If you are getting the same vapor and less throat hit it most likely is not the battery it is more likely your coil or your liquid. If I had to guess I would say you got some old, bad or just low quality liquid. I would stick to reputable vendors for liquid over any "local shop". 510 days into my vaping experience without a cigarette and I have still yet to buy anything at a store except one bottle of liquid that was, well to put it nicely, terrible.
-
I doubt this is the case, more likely what Bebop said. We had a huge thread on it a while back. I have 10 Spinner 2s in rotation and charge them overnight most of the time and they charge but every once in a while I will unplug one and it will flash orange still. A good way to know if it is charging fully is to look at the light on the fire button when you take it off the charger. If it is not glowing white it is not fully charged and needs to be plugged back in. Probably 20% of the time (roughly) I have to unplug mine and re-plug them in to restart the charging cycle.
-
Same as every day for the last year + Old style mini Davide (when they were still 2.5ml) Endless Summer from Fuzion 18mg Vision Spinner 2
-
Yea the savings are a HUGE part of my motivation. Now that I am down to roughly $75 per month for coils and liquid I am set lol. Probably spent the same $$$ as a couple months of analogs on batteries and tanks I like and just roll with it. There are so many ways to do it lol. I just take the "ease" route and "saving" route instead of it becoming a hobby. For me it is about replacing analogs and nothing more.
-
The day I started vaping was the last day I smoked a cigarette but my wife phased hers out over a couple weeks. Even going on 2 years for both of us she still uses 24mg and I dropped to 18mg but thats as far as I plan to go. There is no right or wrong, just do what works for you and best of luck!
