Eleaf iStick Pico and Melo III Mini - Not high end, yet not all bad

Thought I'd add a super short video of a couple of hits from the Melo III Mini on the Pico. While it's not a very powerful tank, with good treatment the vapor production isn't completely awful. I actually fogged up an entire area tonight, which was completely unexpected. Just don't push the 0.3 ohms too much. I keep mine at 30 watts now, and it works just fine.

Plans postponed

So, because being sick in this country is impossible, because you don't get enough money to actually live on, I haven't been able to go through with my plan to buy the SMOK tfv4 yet... It saddens and pisses me off, because I'm delving into this to be able to quit tobacco, which is by far a way more expensive and unhealthy option for me and my use. Got a super-ginormous bill the other day, and it would seem that actually being able to spend money on anything that isn't food or bills will be impossible for a while. I've applied to a bunch of jobs, ignoring the current treatment I'm undergoing, because I have to have to job. I just can't be sick anymore, so I have to just go head-first into it and hope it doesn't crush me beyond a point I've never been before. Scary as hell, but necessary. Thanks, Norway, for taking such good care of your people's mental health (that's a big ass sarcastic irony bomb right there for ya.) The review if juices...

Update on the vapemail

I got a few more juices yesterday, so now I'm only expecting two more bottles. 2x menthol, 2x strawberry milkshake, 1x pink lemonade, 1x summer rain - Liberty Flights 3x Red Cola - Hangsen 1x Goose Juice by Quack - Elegans E-juice I have only tried the strawberry milkshake and the menthol (with the exception of the Red Cola which I've already emptied a bottle of, and Summer Rain which I've used with vape pens earlier), so I'm not going to be doing any reviews until I've tried the Pink Lemonade as well. I just wanted to show you what the mailman brought me!

Vapemail Sep. 21. 2016

YAAAAY!!!!! Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyy!!!! Look here at my new beauty! Isn't she pretty??? It's a shame I couldn't get her in white, but she's here now, and I love her just the way she is. Here's a photo of my two ladies alongside each other. The Pico really is quite small! I am so happy! Oh, and yes, the juices. Let me just snap a photo of them first. I haven't really gotten around to testing them yet. I put a new .3ohm coil in the Melo, and I'm terrified of burning it. So I'm giving it another 20 minutes before I touch it (I tried it briefly after a little over 20 minutes, but I only vaped at 20w and 30w, and then I chickened out and splashed the coil with more juice). However, the few puffs I got from the Melo, which contains the Strawberry Milkshake, tasted good. I can't wait to crank up the watts and give it a real taste! The tank I'm borrowing, the Tfv4 micro, is brewing the goose juice, and I smelled it and fe...

Impatiently waiting for juice

Like, really impatiently. I've spent all the juice I have (that I can use (low pg)), and now I'm down to a high nic mix coil killer of coffee and tobacco. I really can't wait for the new juices to arrive, and hopefully I won't have to go shopping for a while now. I actually lost track of what I've order, and yesterday I realized I've double-ordered two kinds of juice. Bah!!

"Atomizer Short" error

Today I've had some issues with my setup. I keep getting error messages. "No atomizer", which I solved by simply unscrewing the tank and screwing it back on (meheh). However, a few minutes ago I got another message. "Atomizer short", and had to google a little. I saw people explaining that this is meant as a security message to avoid using an unsafe coil, but that it could also be as simple as the coil having unscrewed itself due to opening and closing if the clearomizer (tank, am I using that word right?). I took the whole thing apart and cleaned it in the process. The coil was quite loose, so I screwed it back down, not too hard (meheheh), and it seemed to do the trick. However, I wonder if the mod is supposed to reset the wattage setting after it has been disconnected from the coil for some time? I had it set to 45.5w, because I like lots of vapour and I don't care what you say, but when I pressed the fire button it said 29.9w. I thought it was weird,...

Plans for new setup

I've spent days trying to figure out what my next setup will be, and I finally think I've figured it out. As I need both a mod and a tank, I've tried to find quality at a reasonable price, and I hope that what I've managed to put together will work. Tank: I've been going back and forth between the Freemax Starre Pure and the SMOK tfv4 (the one I've wanted all along), and after actually having decided on the former, I'm going with the latter. Why? Because it looks awesome. Because it's what I originally wanted. Because it's super well vented and supports a shitload if coils, plus RBA. Sure, the FSP has gotten a lot of great reviews, and I don't doubt it's an excellent choice. Not at all. I hope to get one someday. It's just not the one for me. I've found a kit, not too expensive, but not a lot of stuff in the package. I'm just waiting for Friday to order it! Hopefully, my mind will stay set. Mod: Oh geez... Since I ha...

Coil murderer

So, I forgot to mention that apparently I am a coil murderer. As you know, I have my Pico 75w and my Melo III Mini, and I haven't had it for more than nine days now. A few days ago I had to go away to attend my grandfather's funeral, and I forgot to bring coils, because I wasn't expecting them to break so insanely soon. A few hours before I started driving back home, my vape started tasting burnt and foul, so naturally I changed the coil instantly when I got home. Put in a .5 one, soaked it, buuut apparently I didn't wait long enough before I started vaping, because within 12-ish hours (and mind you, I got home late and slept for most of those hours) it started tasting horrible again. I realized I had probably used it too soon, shrugged it off and replaced it with my last .3 coil (is it obvious now that I prefer the .3s?). I made sure to wait for at least 20 minutes this time, even put a timer on. Everything went well. Until... The next day! Withing another ...

My (current) juices and short reviews

I have three things that are important to my vaping experience. Clouds Taste Low throat hit It's a learning experience, but with the help of people who know what they're doing, I'm getting closer. In this post I'd like to show my juices. They are non-expensive, and none above 10 ml, because I don't know. Hangsen e-liquid, Red Cola, 3mg, 10ml I LOVED this one! It tastes just like Cola pops. Frozen, sweet, awesome Cola! I had to try it immediately, of course, so I learned that even though it has been stored a little before you get it, a little more steeping is not a bad idea. I am most definitely buying a lot more of this!!!  Hangsen e-liquid, Mango, 3mg, 10ml Well... I mean, I guess there is trace of a fruity flavour in this? I'm not quite sure. I don't think it's mango, though. It's not bad, not at all. Just not as much flavour as I had hoped.  Hangsen e-liquid, licorice, 3mg, 10ml No! Just NO!!! BAD Hangsen! ...

My stuff

So, this is going to be a complete Noobtopia. I will here show off my pathetic equipment!!!! Be prepared to not be baffled!!!  KangerTech Evod eGo CE4 Eleaf iStick Pico / Melo 3 Mini So, as you can see, I don't really have any hi-tech stuff, and I'm as of yet not completely sure what I'm doing, and yesterday I botched TWO coils in one day, so now everything tastes burnt and lovely... Changed the coil when I got home yesterday, and I probably didn't wait long enough to start puffing the new one, and I think the wattage setting was too high. So yeah. Good thing I bought more coils, because I'm probably gonna have to change it- again. I'm going to confer with the experts on the facebook group I'm member of - Damping i Nord-Norge- (Norwegian group) and ask them what I did wrong.

First post!

Congratulations to me! First post! Firstly, I'd like to say that the name of this blog is not a joke. I am a n0ob if ever there was one. But I'm going to learn, and have son fun on the way. Let's have a look at my vaping history! In 2014 I discovered vaping and I immediately got out and bought a KangerTech Evod. I used it for about a year, and then I got my girlfriend one too. She loves hers, to the extent you can live something you don't really care about. I don't... My interest faded, and soon my dear pen was living in a drawer. Forgotten.  Lost. Now, in 2016, my interest bubbled back up, and I found a group on Facebook that was perfect for me. I started asking around and looking at their setups, and figured it was time to quit tobacco. Before I knew it I had won a giveaway; the eGo CE4. Another pen. Tried it for a week, but it wasn't t an improvement to the Evod. I needed something new, and started asking and searching. At first I may have be...
