Im not keen on many flavours, I read about people trying different types, but not for me, when I first started vaping I got some GVC and loved it and and the recipe was briefly published so I made some up and found it as good as the real thing. that was about 3 years ago and its all I vape .I now mix up 100ml when needed 70/30. never really got on well with mech mods either.

on a purely personal note, i took up vaping to enable me to enjoy my nicotine in a more economic and healthier way. During my time I have tried Sub ohm, Kayfan etc and they just leave me cold. I mix my own juice (so can control the nicotine and flavour ), I trust my ability to build within the capacity of my gear and i don't see vaping for me as a hobby.
I have no desire to hide my home and loved ones in a permenant haze, So cloud chasing is of no interest to myself or my other half.
However I do believe that as with all things, everybody has their opinion and as we are still a democracy, I will respect their right to vape in whatever method/way/style that they so choose.
Be happy in yourself and enjoy.

This is more a general hate rather than going against the flow so to speak, but compared to smoking I hate the clutter that vaping causes. When I smoked I had a tin with baccy, filter tips and papers. Alongside that a lighter plus an ash try. That was it. Now I have 3 wires trailing out of my laptop, 2 ecigs, and 2 bottles of juice all cluttering up my desk. But that is the tip of the iceberg. Behind me I have a drawer stuffed with other atties, mods, batteries, chargers, more USB cables than would wire up the ISS, an assortment of tools, cotton, coils and on and on. Then my freezer is full of frozen nic, my kitchen cupboard has 1lt bottles of PG and VG, enough food flavour to supply the British Bake Off, syringes, mixing beakers, and both full and empty bottles. So for that reason I hate vaping.

There is certainly a bit of extra clutter, can't disagree with you there Bobsbeer I am also heartened that we seem to be different in our likes and dislikes. Each to his or her own, and as you rightly say, that's what makes vaping so much more interesting. I hate to think how much crap I've accumulated with drawers full of original boxes, wick, wire, driptips, etc., to say nothing of all the concentrates, maturing juices, ready-to-vape juices, and tanks and mods. One day I'll induce the wrath of my OH and get it all out in one place - on second thoughts, no I won't, instant divorce!

For me the biggest let down were the nautilus just did not get on with it at all, same a bit with the tfv4 mini everybody raving about the flavour i thought it was ok ish but not any better than most. So back and still like the subtank minis i just find they work nice and simple no fuss no dramas with them, also the same with the i sub g's they just work.

I like the nauti mini with the rba head (not so much with the stock coils) from the hour or so I have had so far with the subtank I like that with the stock coils.
i don't like the disapproving looks i keep getting form the other half whenever she sees me opening another parcel, apparently 5 tanks and 5 mods is not right in her eyes (even though she stole one of each off me .....)

Phew I was beginning to think I was the only one. I genuinely think it is the most ball-ache bit of kit and the build quality on the coils is pants, a total lottery every time you fit one.

That's why I have the RBA decks in all three of mine - at least I have only myself to blame if the coils and wicking are naff!!

Totally in love with kayfun lites after nearly 18 months even though must now think them to right a straw lol love personalizing them as well Definitely not a fan of the subtank, to me it's hot vapour, no flavour and no resistance in the draw. If we all liked the same, the world would be a boring place

All that clutter will be a godsend when the EU brings Article 20 into effect in May!

Temp control don't like it I've tried it with stick coils and rebuildables I've used the sig, xcube and ipv d2 yet I don't enjoy it as much as power mode, I've been using mechs for ages and keep going back to them.
Mod wise loads of people raved about the sig I'm meh give me a mech over it any day

I love my subtank mini's. Nice and easy to rebuild, the black & white ones look really neat on all my mods and I find the flavour is ok for me. I also like the air control choices. Mostly I have it opened fully but with red astaire I find it better to turn it down a notch so as not to have it too airey.
I also like my lemo drops, however if you've only just filled the tank and then find you need to change the wick or coil shortly after it's a bloomin bugger to do.

I think the SubTank gets a rough ride from some of us, me included, because it was over-hyped.

Love the Goliath tank, the flavour of it is brilliant. Quite like subtank mini for ease of use - always use the rba in it. Love my derringer and Kennedy drippers.
Hate temp control. Really distrust the variability in how it performs. Pissed off with Baal dripper it hotspots all time no matter what I do with it build wise.
