That Marilyn Manson song Tainted Love is how I feel about eliquid.
"Once I ran to you (I ran)
Now I'll run from you."
I have a baby beast tank and was using the AL85. All I can say about it is that it does work well, but it isn't reliable, you loose mgs and it causes unnecessary work (IMO.)
The entity(nanOtEch) uses the same set up and loves it. To each their own. If you want to go that route and need advice he could help you.
What I don't like about it is...
Having to heat water in a bowl and then put eliquid in a small cup to dissolve the spice.
Then pulling it out with a syringe and then injecting it into the tank. Then to find the proper wattage. (I was experimenting with different sub-ohm coils)
Once I found the proper wattage it would work a few times and then burn up on me.
Then it just tasted like burned up dog shit and I couldn't break thru.
I had to try to suck what I could out of it and put a new coil in and get e-liquid all over my fingers and start over.
You loose mgs in every step of the process.
I don't want to do DMT surgery man.
Oh and it leaked on me once. That was fucking tragic.
Like I said. I bought a Yocan evolve plus. I use the QDC that came with it. Load it up, pulse it very shortly to melt some, put the lid on and then sit down. DONE!
When I get ready to hit it I hold the button down for a few seconds to let it build up in the chamber and then I take in as much as I can.
I hold it in for 10-13 seconds and exhale, then go for round two.
I usually don't remember exhaling at that point. I'm sure you could break thru in one hit if you wanted. I like taking two that way on my second hit i'm feeling it hard but I'm still able to get comfortable.
It works perfectly for me. Kinda feels like being in a toxic relationship and then finding the right partner.
There is only this and now. What this is exists as one.
