Vaper ABC

Interest in vaping is gradually spreading to more and more people. Some are interested in new technologies, others are attracted by the fashion trend, while others are trying to get rid of the addiction of tobacco smoking.

Regardless of the experience of vaping, every vaper, upon first acquaintance with a gadget, is interested in how to use such a device and how to set up an electronic cigarette in such a way as to ensure high-quality, safe and at the same time pleasant vaping.

Before you figure out how to properly set up an e-cigarette, you need to find out why it is so important to correctly organize this process.

An incorrectly configured device will not only fail to provide high-quality and correct vaping, but may also negatively affect the vaper's health.

After all, an incorrectly adjusted tightening force or the volume of steam that enters the lungs can lead to both unpleasant sensations during vaping and the development of certain diseases of the lungs and respiratory tract. Perhaps this is the biggest danger of an electronic cigarette, the settings of which do not correspond to the needs of the user.

In addition, an incorrectly configured device can simply break down from overload. If the vaper takes a deep puff, and the mod's power is not enough, then the e-cigarette will either immediately fail, or, much worse, explode right in the user's hands.

As you can see, you need to set up an electronic cigarette as soon as the vaper is interested in this device as a vaping device. The safety of the mod user and the quality of vaping depend on the correct adjustment of the device.

First acquaintance: how to turn on the electronics?

Congratulations, you have become the owner of your first electronic cigarette. Without exaggeration, your life will change in the near future.

What does a vape consist of and how does it work?

In the meantime, you need to make sure that you have everything you need for quality e-cigarette use:

  • battery pack;
  • clearomizer (atomizer, vaporizer, steam generator) - this part is often sold complete with a battery (such a kit is called a "starter kit");
  • charger (most chargers are equipped with a standard micro-USB connector);
  • vial with liquid for vaping.

Inexperienced vapers need to pay special attention to the atomizer. If you purchased the Starter Kit, it will match the battery pack perfectly. If you want to buy a clearomizer as a separate part of an electronic cigarette, you need to make sure that the type of connector on it matches the type of the connector on the battery pack of the vaping device.

In addition, it is necessary to find out the possibility of servicing the atomizer (on a serviced evaporator, you can change the winding on your own, while for unattended ones, you will need to replace the old spiral with a new, purchased one).

Not sure how to properly assemble your vaping device? With the help of further step-by-step instructions, anyone, even an inexperienced vaper, can assemble e-cigarettes on their own:

  1. First of all, you need to make sure that the atomizer is equipped with a vaporizer (bowl with wick).
  2. Next, you need to fully charge the battery pack.
  3. After that, we unscrew the atomizer, turn it over and fill it with liquid for vaping through a special hole.
  4. And finally, you need to install a steam generator filled with liquid on the accumulator block.

That's it, your vaping device is fully charged and prepared for vaping. It is imperative to monitor the battery level and charge it in time. Otherwise, the battery pack can be damaged very quickly.

The charging frequency of an electronic cigarette directly depends on the capacitive characteristics of the battery pack. On average, every 1000 mAh is enough for about three hundred puffs. When the battery pack has the passthrough function, the vaper can also hover from it during charging, without waiting for its completion.

Configuring the mod to work properly

This process largely depends on the model of the gadget being used. We cannot know what kind of electronic cigarette you are using: a simple miniature "eGoshka" or a multifunctional, modern box mod. But be that as it may, be sure to read the information below on how to set up an electronic cigarette and how vaping is implemented.

Adjusting an e-cigarette consists in setting one or several parameters at once:

  1. Power supplied to the steam generator (spiral wound).
    The larger the spiral (or the greater the number of spirals), the more power is needed to implement the tightening. The more power, the more steam and the sooner the battery pack will be discharged (the battery discharge rate also depends on its power).
  2. Varivolt (VariVolt or VV).
    The ability to manually adjust the voltage, while the power depends on the winding resistance of the steam generator. The voltage is directly proportional to the volume of inhaled vapor.
  3. Varivatt (VariWatt, VW).
    The ability to adjust the power when changing resistance. This is the part with which the resistance is monitored and, depending on it, the voltage changes. With this "function" in the electronic cigarette, there is no need to manually adjust the voltage. You just need to set the desired power.
  4. Thermal control
    An automatic function that can also be supplemented with an e-cigarette. With the help of this chip, the temperature of the steam generator is monitored, due to which, in fact, its regulation is realized. The presence of thermal control is characterized by a timely decrease or increase in the evaporator temperature, which greatly simplifies the use of the vaping device.

In the first couples, you need to set tension relying on your taste. To adjust, we will use the control buttons located on the battery pack. Experts recommend focusing on the desired amount of steam and making sure that the liquid in the cartridge does not fizzle or burn with a characteristic burnt aftertaste.

Do you also need to be able to soar?

So, the vaping device is assembled, charged and set up. You can finally try and find out what the vaping is, from which many people are so delighted:

  1. We turn on the electronic cigarette. To do this, you must press the button located on the battery pack. The battery will energize the spiral winding and after a moment you can breathe the first puff. True, there are some modern mods that can be turned on without a button. In such devices, the mechanism is triggered when the bather takes a puff.
  2. We hold the electronic cigarette in an upright position or tilted the mouthpiece up. If you keep the device in a horizontal or inverted position, then it will not function at all.
  3. In the event that there are small openings on the body of an electronic cigarette for air exchange, then it is not recommended to cover them with your fingers while tightening. These are incorrect actions that can lead to overheating and damage to the device.
  4. The tightening is done at the same time as pressing the button (this applies exclusively to "push-button" electronics and mods).
  5. If you have just joined the ranks of vapers and do not know how to inhale steam correctly, then at first it is recommended that you do not take too long a puff (no more than 5 seconds). There are small pauses between inhaling the vapor from the vape - about 5 seconds. Let the atomizer cool down. He will thank you for your concern with a longer service. In addition, this approach will ensure timely cooling of the spiral and, thereby, prevent its overheating.
  6. You need to tighten up smoothly. Vaping differs from conventional smoking, which is why it is not recommended to take several puffs at once without a pause. Failure to comply with this recommendation will result in fluid leakage through the steam generator and overheating of the coil.
  7. When finished vaping, remember to block the e-cigarette before putting it in your pocket or bag. The blocking method, as a rule, consists in pressing the button five times (although blocking the gadget largely depends on its model and on the settings that were set by the manufacturer).

Let's talk a little more about the benefits of vaping over smoking.

So, the first experience has been successfully obtained, the device has passed the first testing, and you are ready to actively continue to comprehend the basics of vaping.

When vaping, stick to the same intensity as when smoking regular cigarettes. Simply put, experienced vapers, as well as experts in the field, do not recommend taking more than 20 puffs at a time. An e-cigarette has no end, so in the early stages of discussion, an overdose of nicotine substances present in the vaping liquid is especially dangerous.

It is recommended that you take breaks between smoke breaks throughout the day. Too frequent use will dry out the accumulator very quickly in the part that comes into contact with the steam generator. During a break of an hour or two, the slurry has time to be evenly distributed over the cartridge.

If there is no urine to endure such long breaks, then you can purchase a replacement cartridge. By the way, it will be useful for a vaper even when the bather wants to change the taste of the liquid or its strength.

Indeed, a little underused liquid always remains in the evaporator, therefore, when using a new liquid of a different taste, they will mix, which will not in the best way affect the taste of the steam.

The most appropriate way to avoid this precedent is to use a separate clearomizer for each flavor.

Soaring with pleasure

If you do not powerful, but prolonged inhalation of steam, then it will flow abundantly into the lungs. While excessively deep or sharp tightening can lead to the formation of excess fluid in the clearomizer, which can leak along the thread into the battery pack. Hence the malfunction of the gadget and, as a result, its breakdown.

In addition, many models, with strong and sharp puffs, begin to emit sounds uncharacteristic for this process: whistle, hiss. Do you need extra noise too? Thanks to prolonged puffs, a large volume of steam enters the pulmonary cavity, which means that saturation will come much faster than with small and abrupt puffs.

It is advisable to slightly tilt the steaming device downwards, then the slurry from the accumulator will enter the steam generator gradually and evenly.

Experts strongly recommend monitoring the amount of liquid in the cartridge. It is highly undesirable to allow the filler to be empty during tightening. This can cause overheating and breakage of the wick. But at the same time, pouring liquid over the required level is also not recommended, this entails an atomizer leak.

In addition, the e-cigarette steam generator needs regular cleaning (at least once a month). This procedure is not complicated and can be easily organized at home without the involvement of more experienced vapers.

It is enough just to disassemble the upper part of the device into its components and rinse the winding, bowl, wick, cartridge under a stream of warm
oh water. In case of serious contamination, you can wash the parts of the electronic cigarette in an alcohol solution. But it's better not to run the state of your gadget.

The frequency of atomizer replacement mainly depends on the intensity of use of the vaping device. As a rule, experienced vapers change the steam generator 1-2 times a month.

Apart from this, there are several rules that are considered to be the norms of good taste among vapers. For example, it is forbidden to leave an electronic cigarette unattended in the presence of children. And to soar among people is possible only with the consent of others. Taking a puff from a vape while driving a vehicle is dangerous and not entirely sensible. In short, all the tips offered by experts and experienced vapers are quite logical and understandable without unnecessary reminders.

Observing the rules for using the vaping device described above, you can significantly extend the life of the device. Proper vaping is more like smoking a hookah than a regular cigarette. So just try it out, learn how to use the e-cigarette and have fun with vaping. Soar with pleasure!

In recent years, e-cigarettes have ceased to be just a replacement for smoking. Today vaping is a whole subculture, the adherents of which are passionate, first of all, original tastes and getting an abundant steam. The last question often becomes a problem, because not all devices are able to please users with rich steam generation. Let's see how you can fix this.

There are several reasons that determine why there is little smoke in an electronic cigarette.

Discharged battery

If the battery shows only ten percent charge, a decrease in the amount of steam occurs due to a lack of voltage on the spiral. In this case, you need to charge the battery.

Incorrect tightening

The e-cigarette differs from the usual vaping intensity. For a sufficient amount of steam, it is necessary to make the puffs longer and smoother, single and measured. This is necessary in order for the liquid falling on the spiral to evaporate. If the puffs are short or double, there will be an excess of liquid in the atomizer.

Such use can also lead to leakage in the threads of the electronic cigarette. Evaporation occurs well in a new atomizer after "running in" (after five to ten puffs).

Clogged atomizer

This is due to an excess of liquid, which badly affects the operation of the atomizer. It will be enough to blow it through, thereby eliminating excess liquid. At the same time, it is imperative that the atomizer always has a small amount of liquid to prevent the wick from sticking to it that conducts the liquid onto the filament. After blowing out the atomizer, you need to make one or two puffs without pressing a button.

In an ES with an automatic type battery, you do not need to screw the atomizer to the battery, but you need to close the hole on the atomizer connector with your finger.

There is no liquid in the cartridge

Check if there is liquid in the cartridge. If it is absent or not enough, refuel. You will be able to increase the service life by monitoring the level and presence of liquid in the cartridge.

Large wear

Maybe the atomizer has been used for a very long time and needs to be changed. The atomizer is an ES consumable. As you know, the service life of this part is approximately 1-2 months.

The duration of the term is influenced by many points:

  • specifications;
  • correct operation;
  • smoking intensity.

How to make more vapor in an e-cigarette

There are ways to make more smoke in your e-cigarette. First of all, you need to develop your own smoking method with a puff. It comes with experience. The development of technology should take place on a serviceable electronic cigarette with a refilled cartridge. Fix the technical issues first, then practice.

Glycerol

Glycerin is often used to increase the amount of steam. It is added to the ES liquid. You can buy glycerin both in a regular pharmacy and in specialized stores selling electronic cigarettes. In a pharmacy, the cost of this substance is much less, only it is necessary to choose glycerin suitable for use in food. You can find vegetable glycerin in the pharmacy in the cough syrup section. It will be enough to add just a few drops of glycerin to noticeably increase the amount of steam.


Hand batteries

When using automatic batteries, the atomizer is heated first. No smoke is generated at this point. The hand battery works immediately after pressing the button. Usually, owners of a hand-held battery have an advantage, since when using automatic ones, you can inhale the smoke only when the atomizer is hot.

Stable liquid supply to the atomizer

Only with a stable supply of liquid to the atomizer, good steam is produced. Quite often the cartridges are poorly refilled. Because of this, the slurry does not enter the atomizer bridge. To get good smoke, you need to keep the cartridges filled.

Freshly charged batteries

When the battery is first charged, it generates more voltage, which increases the amount of steam and the force of the "blow to the throat"


High battery voltage

The higher the voltage, the higher the steam quality. Standard batteries have a voltage of approximately 3.7 volts. With these batteries, the cartridge tolerates a voltage of 3-5 volts, but at 7 volts it can burn out. Non-standard batteries have a voltage of 3 to 7 volts. The disadvantage of high voltage is the disappearance of the primary aroma of the ES liquid.

Low resistance at the atomizer

A lot of vapor from an electronic cigarette is generated if the atomizer has little resistance. This is due to the faster heating rate. But this has a drawback - the battery is discharged faster and the liquid for the ES runs out. In this case, the primary aroma may disappear slightly. The most popular low resistance atomizer is the 1.8ohm 510 atomizer.

Variety of liquids

The quality of the vapor depends on the chemical composition, aroma and concentration of nicotine in the liquid. It is recommended that you try different types of liquids. For example, adding menthol to a liquid makes the vapor thicker and intensifies the throat hit.


Long battery life

To create an electronic cigarette most similar to a real one, it is made in small sizes. Consequently, the charge runs out very quickly and the amount of vapor is usually small. There are electronic cigarettes with increased weight and volume. They have large battery sizes. These cigarettes last longer. Such batteries last at least 1 day.

Overview of ES with a lot of steam

It is worth highlighting a number of models capable of producing a lot of steam.

SLB DSE-601

Perhaps this is the first model that can be noted. It differs from others in battery power and cartridge capacity. This model is suitable as a gift, as it has a stylish appearance and original design.

Joye eGo-T Mega

This is a different, less expensive model. Despite its modest appearance, it produces a large amount of steam. In addition, this device has all the attributes necessary for smoking in its kit.


New life

It also produces a large amount of smoke. More suitable for its external characteristics for girls. This e-cigarette has a glamorous look as well as a performance advantage. The e-cigarette has a capacious 1950 mAh battery.

Denshi tabaco turbo premium

This model is suitable for you if you need an ES with a large amount of steam. Such ES attracts with its stylish appearance, richness and density of smoke, which is achieved thanks to more advanced cartridges, which are equipped with built-in steam generators.

The main thing is to have a charged, serviceable electronic cigarette with you. For a comfortable transition to ES, it is recommended to use a stronger liquid for smoking at first. You can gradually reduce the fortress. It is recommended that you eventually switch to 0 mg nicotine pacifiers, which act as a "placebo". This technique has a very good effect on health - it reduces the frequency of coughing.

Despite the fact that Ayjast s appeared on the vaping market relatively recently, she is quickly gaining popularity among vapers, be it a beginner or a seasoned vape. But, no matter how ideal this electronic cigarette is, you always want to improve it, make it more attractive. Let's see what kind of upgrade can be done on this e - cigarette.

What kind of electronics is installed


The ijust s electronic cigarette is equipped with two types of protection, the first one protects the electronics from possible battery overcharge or, on the contrary, maximum discharge. The second type of protection is against a possible short circuit. So from this side, you are completely protected.

As for the voltage supply, it remains similar to its predecessor Ayjast 2, and is supplied directly from the battery to the evaporator.

In this regard, it should be noted that the strength and intensity of vaping depends entirely on the completeness of the battery charge. The latter can be controlled using a special light sensor, which the engineers have placed under the "on / off" button of the device. The second indicator is located under the USB charger connector, it glows all the time while the cigarette is being charged.

As you can see, the lack of an information OLED display does not affect the ability to control the functioning of this vape device.

How best to reflash this electronic cigarette

Re-flashing an electronic cigarette can be carried out both in a specialized vape salon and at home. Note that the second option is not difficult and you can easily do it yourself.

You need a special program to modify the software on your device. You can find such software on specialized sites; in most cases, the necessary content is downloaded free of charge.

The firmware procedure is divided into several stages:

  • connecting a cigarette to a PC using an additional cable;
  • downloading the program for the brand you need. Often this is an archive version of the software;
  • installing the required update after unzipping the file.

It is worth noting that there are two versions of Ayjast c firmware - Chinese (CN) and European (ROW).

How to make mech mod out of ijust s?

Mehmod or mechanical mod (storage battery) is a hollow metal tube, the main task of which is to close the contacts between the e - cigarette atomizer and the storage battery. Considering that there is no electronics in it, the amount of vapor produced by your vape depends entirely on the resistance of the atomizer.

If the board on the device is out of order, you can give a "second life" to the vape and tune ijust s , replacing electronics with mechanics.

Can this model be improved?

The modernization of Ayjast C can be carried out using several methods. First of all, if you are not satisfied with the amount of steam dispensed, replace the atomizer with a version with a lower resistance, there will be more steam, but the taste of the vaporizing liquid may suffer and the charge in the battery runs out faster.



Secondly, you can replace the battery itself with a more powerful one, but consider the capabilities of your vape, otherwise it will simply burn out. Alternatively, you can use a battery with a large supply volume.

If the desire to upgrade the e-cigarette on the first two options persists, try replacing the electronic rechargeable battery with a manual or mechanical one. The advantage of the latter is that the cigarette starts to vap immediately after activation, in contrast to automatic ones, where it takes time to warm up the atomizer.

A partial option for improving Ayjast c will be the winding of an additional spiral, which will increase the area of \u200b\u200bcontact with the liquid. If you do not want to make mechanical changes in the vape, try noticing the vaporization liquid used for a liquid with a high percentage of glycerin.

There are many opportunities to make better Ayjast vape s, just choose the best one for you and enjoy!

A cigarette completely, from scratch - from the evaporator to the quick docking of the battery with the atomizer
(moreover: the design of the evaporator is improved, including the charger for the battery) - using the available components.

I have been using this design for quite a long time and I can fully recommend everyone to stop smoking tobacco cigarettes!
Personally, I have not smoked a single tobacco cigarette for almost four years !!! And I did it calmly, without any discomfort. The result is that the cough has completely disappeared and I am even annoyed by the smell of tobacco smoke (this is after 45 years of smoking experience!). I can afford to "soar" in my apartment: in the bedroom and in any other room, absolutely not causing any inconvenience to others! I made two options: home and pocket (street) options and no "leaks" that users of branded atomizers (vaporizers, far from cheap) write about during this time, I did not find.

The device does not provide for any scarce components and requires only care during manufacture and further
handling him.

Materials and components:

1. Nichrome wire diameter - 0.15 mm.
2. Silica cord diameter - 2 mm. (I order nichrome and cord in the online store of electronic cigarettes "Cigarette")
3. Syringe for 20 ml.
4. Syringe for 3 ml. 4a - the finished body of the atomizer from this syringe.
5. Cap from disposable electronic cigarette "PONS".
6. The tube from the indoor telescopic antenna is 2.5 mm in diameter.
7-8. Rubber earbuds.
9. The tube from the indoor telescopic antenna is 4.5 mm in diameter.
10. A piece of power cable. Insulation outer diameter: 4.2…. 4.5 mm.
11. Contact plate from the electromagnetic relay or any other suitable elastic plate.
12. Orthophosphoric acid.
13. The body of the disposable electronic cigarette "PONS" (metal).
14. Rubber of an automobile tube with a thickness of 3… .3.5 mm.
15. Dismountable plug "Tulip".
16. Dismountable tulip plug (female).
17. Battery 18650 (U \u003d 3.6… .4.2 v.)
18. For assembling the atomizer: a 3 ml syringe plunger holder. and ballpoint pen body, outer diameter - 8 mm.
19. Syringe for refueling (any).
20. Glue "Moment"
21. Thread HB.

Photo 1 The hardest part of an e-cigarette is the atomizer (vaporizer). Let's start with him.
The body is made of a 3ml medical syringe. We cut it off on both sides so that the length is about 55 mm. We carefully process the sections, wash off the applied marks (by the way, they are easily washed off with diesel fuel).


Photo 2 Using the sharpened edge of the disposable "PONS" cigarette body, cut out two inserts from the rubber of the car camera.


Photo 3 With a tube from a telescopic antenna with a diameter of 4.5 mm, we cut out the central holes on both inserts, and on one of them we pierce two holes with a syringe needle for the outputs of the soft conductors from the heater.


Photo 4 From the same tube we make a central air duct with a length of about 35 mm. On one side, we make a figured cutout in the shape of a keyhole.


Photo 5 The heater is a nichrome wire with a diameter of 0.15 mm, the ends of which are wound and soldered to soft stranded conductors with orthophosphoric acid. The working section of the heater should be 26 mm long. (selected empirically).


Photo 6 We carefully wind it around a silica cord.


Photo 7 We pass the ends of the bends into the punctured holes of the liner and pull them to the base. We cut off the remnants of the cord around the circumference of the liner. Then (this is important!) With a syringe needle we "ruffle" the edges of the cord near the soldered contacts so that the villi in these areas are on top of the nichrome winding. If we do everything carefully and correctly, then when the brass tube of the air duct is planted, it will not "short-circuit" the coil of the heater. Silica is an excellent insulator!


Photo 8 Now carefully insert the tube into the liner. I would like to note that this process requires accuracy and a certain skill.
Honestly, I didn’t succeed the first time myself!


Photo 9 After that, be sure to check this area with the device. If we did everything "cleanly", then the resistance should be
1.8 ... 2.0 Ohm.


Photo 10 Now we collect the other end of the tube. Remove a piece of power wire insulation. Its outer diameter should be 4.3 ... 4.5 mm.
We insert it about halfway into the tube (it should fit quite tightly), and we put on the second liner for the rest.
This is done so that when the assembled structure is inserted into the atomizer body, the liner does not "slide" along the tube.


Photo 11 We insert the assembled unit into the body of the former syringe. To facilitate this process, it is best to lubricate the circumference of the earbuds with a filling fluid.


Photo 12 When inserting, it is better to apply pressure to the central part, where the edge of the notch of the tube is located. To do this, you can use the piston rod from the same syringe with side slots for the exit of soft conductors.


Photo 13 We drill an air hole with a diameter of 1 ... 1.5 mm,


Photo 14 We solder the leads of the conductors to the "Tulip" plug, having previously shortened the "minus" lead,


Photo 15 We put on a cap from "PONS" on the "mouthpiece" side, cut a hole with a diameter of 1.5 ... 2.5 mm in the center on it and the atomizer is ready.


Photo 16 Now the power supply unit. At the "Tulip" connector, completely remove the negative terminal.


Photo 17 We solder the positive terminal of the connector to the positive terminal of the battery as accurately as possible in the center (for aesthetic reasons). Be careful not to short-circuit it to the battery minus! Nearby is the edge of the case (minus).


Photo 18 Since the positive terminal of the connector does not have high mechanical strength, I do this. I wrap the already soldered output with a HB-shirring thread quite tightly, periodically lubricating the area with Moment glue until it is filled, until the winding is equal in diameter to the threaded part of the connector.


Photo 19 We will commute through the negative circuit. Therefore, I chose the easiest and most reliable way.
We solder the spring-loaded brass strip to the battery case. Since it is made of iron, it must be soldered with orthophosphoric acid. Then we cut the strip and make a bend in such a way that when pressed on it it provides reliable contact with the outer cup of the inserted atomizer.


Photo 20 For appearance, you can wrap it with adhesive decorative foil or use a 20 mm shrink tubing. up

Home engineering is the process of improving or changing the parameters of an electronic cigarette to suit your needs. No matter how hard manufacturers try to provide for all the wishes of bathers, experienced e-smokers have their own opinion about each model and are always ready to make them better.

Important! Any tampering with the "insides" of an electronic cigarette voids your warranty. Also, when working with batteries, you need to be very careful, since experiments with them are extremely dangerous to property, health and even life. If you are not well versed in the subject, leave engineering to more experienced vapers. In the end, for the needs of "ordinary" e-smokers, manufacturers already select the optimal parameters of cigarettes.

Creation and repair of evaporators

up

Vaporizers for electronic cigarettes are, in fact, a fairly simple device. Many professionals do not want to pay extra for a replacement heater, so creating your own evaporators and repairing those that have already exhausted their resource is a very common type of engineering.

It is easy to create your own evaporator, but for safety and better fastening of parts, it is recommended to use your already used heater as a base. By careful parsing, you need to get to the spiral, consisting of a silica cord and nichrome wire. If these elements have already worked out, then they can simply be replaced, but in most cases, you can simply remove the old wire and exactly recreate the spiral from the new skein. After that, it is enough to assemble the clearomizer and check the resistance to make sure that it comes out as close as possible to that for which your e-cigarette is designed.

The invention of mods

up

Mods - modified cigarettes are the future of vapors. All the innovations that e-smokers are already accustomed to, originally appeared in mods. Russian craftsmen love to work with mods: they increase the battery power, screw on more capacious flasks, increase the evaporator voltage, thereby increasing the amount of steam.

Today there are electronic boards that allow people to create their own mods even without special technical knowledge. By simply soldering the contacts and screwing on a larger battery, you can achieve the desired result with their help. Professionals use such boards to assemble their own e-cigarettes with new functions. For example, it was in the mods that the display with the display of "smoking statistics" first appeared.

Steam regulation

up

More steam and more flavor is one of the main goals of mod creators. There is a kind of "offshoot" of e-smoking called Cloudchasing - a modification of a cigarette for the maximum amount of vapor. Craftsmen suggest using a mechanical or box mod to collect such a cigarette. The first option is suitable only for professionals, since this fashion lacks any "foolproof" protection. Basically, it's just a metal pipe without any electronics. The box mod is more "advanced" in this regard and has protection from wrong actions. Because of this, it "accelerates" worse and costs more.

Let's consider an example of creating a Cloudchasing cigarette based on the Mirandus mech mod - it's cheap, reliable and beautiful. Since this mech mod comes with three different tube sizes, different batteries will fit. Professionals advise using an 18650 battery, as it achieves the most optimal vapor performance and battery life.

Next, a drip atomizer is selected, suitable for the mod, having two spirals and good airflow. This will help generate more steam. Atomizers from Mephisto, Dark Horse, Stillare (pictured) are suitable for these indicators. We will choose the latter because of the simply huge blowing hole - more steam!

After that, a high-capacity battery from 1600 mAh is selected. Note that mech mods typically use "high current" batteries of 30–35 amps. The use of "weaker" power sources can lead to unpredictable consequences. In our case, for example, Sony VTC4 and Efest 35A are suitable. But beware of counterfeits! These batteries are "champions" in the number of counterfeits. It is also worth picking up a charger and, for example, will suit well these "batteries" Nitecore I2, I4, Nitecore D2 and D4 Luc v4.

When assembling the drip atomizer, mech mod and battery, an ohmmeter should be used. In the box mod, by default, there is a display that will notify about the resistance. This is necessary for the next step - collecting the evaporator, which is created from a silica cord and nichrome wire. When winding the wire, one should check with an ohmmeter with each revolution: does the displayed resistance correspond to what the selected battery “holds”. Otherwise, the homemade product can be easily "burned".

To improve the taste and amount of steam, the evaporator is recommended to be assembled from cotton wool (instead of a silica cord) and kanthal, a cheap substitute for nichrome. However, you can also use nichrome. Use a thick wire, for example 0.3 or 0.5 in diameter. Smaller ones will not work, but thicker ones can be used, but it will be difficult to reel. On a small roller of cotton wool, you need to wind kanthal layer by layer, checking with each skein with an ohmmeter. Cotton wool should be chosen non-sterile - so there will be no "medical" taste. And if you are willing to pay for the pleasure, then you can use Japanese cotton Koh Gen Do - according to the "pro" reviews, it perfectly conveys the taste and makes it richer.

Making your own mix

up

This is partly a continuation of the previous point, since with the help of a special mixture, more steam can be achieved. You can easily create your own mixture based on a liquid with a high content of glycerin and propylene glycol. These ingredients are easy enough to buy on any specialized resource. They are inexpensive, and in the long term they will even help you save money. Do not use pharmacy glycerin! At best, the mixture simply “won't work”, at worst it can harm your health.

The mixture is kneaded in a proportion of 80 ml. glycerin and 20 ml. Propylene Glycol is a pure base to add flavor as desired. Such a ratio will give a lot of steam and taste, but, of course, you need to find your own proportion yourself. The percentage of glycerin is responsible for the amount of steam, the fullness of the flavor of the mixture, and how hard it hits the head. It is recommended to use such a mixture on the homemade e-cigarette described above, since in the "budget" options the liquid will not be able to reveal its potential.

In such a mixture, very little nicotine is needed, because due to the vaping power, its effect will be maximum. For 100 ml. 1 mg is enough. nicotine, but you can do without it altogether. Nicotine can be bought in the same place as glycerin. Nicotine produced by Shaanxi Tianzi is a success.

Food additives are the final element of the vaping mix. They can either be bought in e-smoking stores or used “handy” flavors. Among the specialized flavors are Exotic: white tea, lime, orange and others. And from the "henchmen" you can use homemade spices: cardamom, star anise, cloves, but the mixture must be poured into the clearomizer through a sieve or cheesecloth so that the spices do not get into the tank and damage the evaporator. The proportion of the additive will need to be selected by trial and error, since the specific dosages depend on the specific flavorings.
