It's Not Easy to Love E-Cigarettes: The Battery Edition
I have been involved for more than two years and originally did not plan to write anything, preferring to stay low-key and simply maintain a few personal interests. But as time passed, I started imagining myself becoming a seasoned veteran. Youth naturall
It's been over two years since I started vaping, and I never intended to write anything; I was just quietly enjoying my few hobbies. However, as time went by, I fantasized about becoming an old hand in this field.
In my youth, I was inevitably a bit reckless, but back then, the electronic cigarettes on the market were mostly ugly and silly, limited to gifts exchanged among leaders. They were high-end and classy, but many of the people I knew who started vaping back then have long returned to traditional cigarettes. Perhaps mixed with the curiosity of a Pisces and the mysterious dual identity, I gradually fell in love with pipes. Those who smoke pipes rarely die of lung cancer (not to mention the harm of secondhand smoke to others, just considering the way of smoking a pipe), it is a culture. My fascination with pipes originated from the magical antique meerschaum pipe in the movie "National Treasure I" starring Nicolas Cage. I still remember the first time I saw the stunning Turkish meerschaum pipe at the Turkish Pavilion during the Shanghai World Expo in 2010; apart from being shocked, I couldn't put it down. (Before that, I had already started vaping and had a friend help me bring back two meerschaum pipes from Turkey, the Rose Lady.)
I don't want to go into detail about pipes here, but I want to say that this culture, once it started in my country, has no fakes. The only difference is in material, origin, and the price of tobacco, but it does not affect the personal experience. Beginners can start with one or more pipes for different occasions and environments (after all, a pipe needs to rest after smoking, and a medium-sized pipe takes about an hour to smoke a bowl; even someone like Einstein, who never leaves his pipe, can't smoke that much).
Why I gave it up: After having children, secondhand smoke poses a great risk to my family, so I was forced to switch to electronic cigarettes.
There are early and late starters in this field.
For someone who doesn't want to smoke traditional cigarettes anymore, losing one habit, especially one that is predominantly male (there are female pipe smokers, but not many), feels like losing a bit of luster until the moment I discovered electronic cigarettes, which were wildly popular in the market, with a plethora of *** electronic cigarettes and *** Gatling devices.
My first electronic cigarette experience was not ideal; I believe everyone can find it easily on * treasure, where any vaporizer claims to outdo the Nautilus, boasting huge clouds and fruity flavors (or Yuxi, Furongwang, Honghe...). I quickly searched for e-liquids, and wow, there were claims of outdoing 888, outdoing mango slush, outdoing... even claims of outdoing all domestic, Malaysian, and American e-liquids... I realized that electronic cigarettes have so many intricacies.
Battery mods, boxes, voltage control, temperature control. For electronic products, categorized by practicality (no offense to appearance enthusiasts), I firmly believe that you get what you pay for; the more expensive ones definitely have the most features. I upgraded from *** kits to temperature-controlled *** kits and then directly to DNA200. A few days ago, after drinking too much, a friend took my Wismec DNA200, and now I have the Yi Hai 450J.
With a mod, you need a vaporizer, and there are so many options: RDA, RBA, RTA... it's dazzling... but that's not the focus.
Once you have a mod, power supply becomes an issue. Due to my work (in a TV station), I became familiar with 18650 batteries early on; camcorder batteries are large 18650 battery packs. It wasn't until I seriously observed the voltage drop of mechanical mods and regulated or temperature-controlled mods that I realized how important this thing is. Look at my voltage drop.
In a fully charged state, just pressing once does this. I don't know how Yi Hai or DNA chips handle battery over-discharge protection; I only know that if you want to enjoy you (electronic cigarettes), it's so difficult. Experienced friends can search for the legendary "god-level" electronic cigarette batteries on * treasure, which are mostly Sony. Forgive my ignorance; I can't even distinguish the authenticity of a 18650 battery priced at 69 RMB. I want to say that personal user experience feels like falling into an endless abyss, repeating endlessly, perhaps no longer can be called a hobby. Perhaps some friends will say that I was lucky to buy the genuine red-skinned *** battery, or the genuine purple-skinned *** battery, or the genuine green-skinned *** battery, and furthermore, I bought genuine *** e-liquids. A friend who has been far across the ocean for many years chatted with me, and when comparing the price of a bottle of e-liquid in "foreign countries" with that on * treasure, I can only say that everyone should keep it quiet. I have seen 300ML bottles of 888 and 29 RMB bottles of 30ML 888; regardless of authenticity, I just wish everyone a pleasant experience! Good experiences are so hard to come by here. Yesterday, the news reported that in many areas of Shandong, vegetables were wrapped in toxic tape, which would leave residue on the vegetables. I thought it was somewhat similar to our experience with electronic cigarettes, inhaling aerosol into the lungs... #p#分页标题#e#
Having written this, I don't want to write anymore. As an electronic cigarette enthusiast, I will quietly persist. For my significant voltage drop issue, I bought a few brand batteries today, hoping to make my experience a little less tortuous.
