y3hman Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 been vaping for over a month now. i started out with a tornado tank system and strugled with that kit for the first two weeks. i bought that system thinking the tank will hold alot of juice and i wouldnt have to keep refilling with juice, and that part is true as it does hold good amount of juice and lasts me few hours and refilling was a snap. however i just couldnt get it taste right on a consistent basis. half the time the taste wasnt there for me, and i looked at lots of video reviews with tricks and just couldnt get the right taste all the time. so i threw out the system keeping the batteries only as the did last me a good long time. so the first two weeks i was smoking analogs. then i ordered some LR attys and cartomizers, rated at 2 ohms with some tobacco juice at 18 mg nic and then things started to get much better for me. since then, about a month ago, i havent had a single analog cigg. i finally found an equation that worked for me. two weeks ago i recieved my silver bullet and started vaping at 6v with HV 306 attys at 3.5 ohm and now im where i need to be. silver bullet at 6 v and 18 mg nic. is the closest to a analog cigg taste i can get. i like to take short drags too so 6v for me is better, especially TH, than 3.7v. i still use my ego batts with LR cartos from time to time. my advice to someone new to vaping and not liking their experience so far at 3.7v is to jump to a 6v device with HV atty. if you can afford it definately try it out, as it changed my vaping experience for the better. p.s. im not knocking the tornado tank completely as im sure there are a lot of people who like it, just wasnt for me.

easilyamused Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 congrats, i havent upgraded from the eGo as yet, i did however give up on the tank after several tries and have stuck with LR cartos, even though im having a struggle with them clogging quite frequently, oh how i evny people who get a week or more off of one carto, but until i get the ins and outs of this down i wont consider upgrading to a different device right now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still use my eGo after a year and several other mods. It's still a nice unit and very handy to have around. There wasn't an eGo for the first 4 months that I vaped, but once it came out, it was the perfect device for me. That's about all I used for the next 5 months and then I got a Black Silver Bullet. Those two were all I needed for the next 8 months. I knew the ins and outs, but was very comfortable where I was. Then that "mod bug" bit me and I had to try something else. Anyway, when and if you are ever ready, you'll probably try something else, too. Until then, stay with what works for you. You've got about the best there is now.

xLowEndx Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 Once you find an atty / carto that works the next step is trying more juice. There are so many greats vendors... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 Congrats! Glad you found what works for you. The SB is a great unit. I used one for several months until I got my Provari. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
