    Vaping is definitely a lot cheaper than smoking so I’ll be here a bit it’s very helpful reading the old and new post you guys are very helpful

    I like it here as well.  My favorite forum.  If you're into or get into DIY juice the cost goes WAY down.  I figure about four cents US an ml.  Then you can buy lots of mods!!!!!

    I did the firmware update 1.03 for Eleaf 80 w and I got better battery life today. Plus just for novelty I like the puff counter

    Good deal!!!  I have had good luck with Eleaf devices. I think you have a really good unit there.  Having two is always a good idea however ;)

    Any time, @Jarhead. We're here to help if you have questions. There may be times when you get more answers than you wanted... and threads get derailed around here. Just a warni... Hey, @Walt, since the Vapor Talk store no longer carries third party goods, another vendor you might like to check out is Discount Vapers. They have millions of things to spend your money on and excellent customer service! They just helped me buy 20 boxes of 5-pack coils tonight.  :lol: 

    OMG!  Buying two years worth of coils at a time.  I love it.  Ok, I'll check them out.  I love it when you spend my money.  I'm gonna haveta start sending you some of this stuff!, lol.

    Yep, did that Tam. Only thing listed in included products that may have wicks was "spare parts".

    Includes:

    • 1 Veneno Box Mod
    • 1 TFV8 Big Baby Light Edition Tank
    • 1 0.4ohm V8 Baby-Q2 Dual Core
    • 1 0.15ohm V8 Baby-T8 Octuple Core
    • 1 Replacement Glass Tube
    • 1 MicroUSB Port
    • Spare Parts & O-Rings
    • Instructional Manual

    ". Being my first mod, I'm unsure what accessories are included. I also researched the batteries best suited for these, even watched several battery tests on Youtube, and bought the best performing batteries according to several "experts". Bought them from a reputable business that only sells batteries [in America]. 

    Sounds like you're on the right track.  Two coils that come with the kit are all ready to prime and vape.  Add batteries and e-juice and you're good to go.  Do look up Battery Mooch.  He is  THE battery expert for vaping.  Also give good consideration to getting a good battery charger.  While the mod will charge the batteries internally, I have seen incidents.  Always safer to use an external charger.

    loads that a .04 and .015 ohm coil demands

    I'm going to say, just don't!  Here's a link to where battery Mooch published his ratings on batteries.  The Sony VTC5A will give you 30 amps and the LG HD2 will give you 25 amps.  Building under .1Ω is just asking for trouble unless you under-power the build to where it barely gives a vape.  On the LG HG2's (20A)  Mooch advises about 60 Watts per battery or no more than 120 watts on a two battery mod.  Beyond that you are really punishing the batteries and they may not receive that punishment well.

    Thanks for the welcome. That’s the one issue so far is the battery life people are saying it last a long time but I’m only getting a day at the most. I keep it on charge in my truck so it doesn’t

    Using a 0.4Ω coil, if you vape quite often, a day is good battery life @ 5000mah especially if you are vaping at 40 to 50 watts, which would be about right for that resistance.  Battery life is dependent upon numerous factors.  Your mod is probably running off of a 3.7V battery which when tasked with 40 to 50 watts will have a reduced mah in comparison to if you vaped at say 10 Watts.  Obviously just the difference between 10W and 50W alone over time will have a very different time span per battery life.

    You are very welcome!   Especially Djlsb and PBusardo really dig deep into products.  I've seen DJ throw samples in the trash can because they were junk and he would not give them away.

    @Tam nailed it.  Nobody can tell you which you will like.  It's also a pretty tall order to do a full comparison of the two devices.  I suggest you google the two with the word "review" after them and look for video reviews.  Three reviewers that I like to watch are DJLSB Vapes, PBusardo, and Mike Vapes.  Zophie vapes is pretty good to come to think of it.  The rest to me are just salesmen.

    I went to www.e-liquid-recipes.com and I was so surprised with the variety of recipes that are there. I want to give DIY e-liquid a try but I am not sure where to get the ingredients. Any suggestions for the best store for DIY e juice?

    I like Nicotine River for nicotine, Wizard labs for flavors and I use Amazon for PG and VG unless someone like Wizard Labs has a great sale.

    I have a friend that I recently started making e juice for. She would like menthol or Koolada added to some of the juices I make for her (she was a menthol smoker). I've never used them in my juices so I don't know how much, percentage wise, to put in to start with. I know everything juice wise is subjective. Can somebody help me? Please, pretty please!

    Never used it either but if you get desperate you can go to www.e-liquid-recipes.com and they have average percentages used for all kinds of flavorings.  That may get you in the ball park.
