A buddy also coughed his lungs out when puffing on my Subtank or Billow. He vapes up a storm using the Nautilus mini without coughing.
I think most ex-smokers or new vapers will just be more comfortable doing mouth to lung inhales similar to what they are / were used to when smoking.
That is likely why Twisp and the Ego style atties were so successful as starter kits - they just emulate the tighter draw of MTL on a stinkie much better.
I for one, am hugely surprised at the success rate of the Kanger Subox and the Evic VTCs amongst new vapers since it's release, as I just do not see them as very good MTL starter devices.
I'd still recommend atties like the EVOD, K1, Nautilus mini and even the mPT3 for starter vapers, where they can use juices with a higher nic content at lower power, and vape infrequently to satisfy the craving vs having to chain-vape doing lung hits at 20-30w on 3 or 6 mg jooses to avoid silvering.
About a year and a half ago when the first 50W devices started doing the rounds, people thought that it was crazy, no-one needs that much power... not even seasoned 'professional' vapers. It was seen as a fad or toys for cloud chasers as 20 / 25W was ample for most.
People now frown at the 'underpowered' 30 and 40W TC devices which are doing the rounds, as the average 'starter' kit seems to be a 60W device sporting a sub-ohm tank.
Our vaping world is certainly changing fast, and while we might keep up with it's speed and it's fads, I think we might be losing a lot of new would-be vapers in the momentum.
