I knew the emesh was efficient because a small minority of my trips would be vastly intense, where as the rest of my trips would be mild at best. Even at the same dosage (15-20mg). If this sounds like what your experiencing I feel for you and I want to catalog what I found helps me throughout learning the emesh. Making it more reliable at delivering the experience, its challenging until you get comfortable with your mod box / mesh. You can pretty easily blast off even if you don't know what your doing. But understanding it take more time and practice. Feel free to practice as much as need to 10-15mg is more than enough to test the majority of the factors.
The best way to improve your experience is your breathing and breath work. I didn't believe it until I actually tried it, but the Wim Hof method works amazing. You are able to hold your breath longer, have longer inhales, more control of your breath, and give yourself an opportunity to release any discomfort left in your body. Its a nice mudra to open into the experience and get your mind prepared. legit start doing it. regretfully listened to cobwobblers advice on reddit that after 5-10 sec there isn't any reason to hold it anymore. That's WRONG so wrong I cant believe I was doing it for so long. You NEED to hold your breath maybe not as long as you can, but definitely 17+ seconds. Your wanting to take deep slow breaths and allow the ENTIRE hit to enter your lungs. if it gets caught in your throat you wont get high. We talked about breath work before and after now I'm going to teach you proper breathwork during the hit. I want you to do this exercise right now, make the room quite and start whispering, get really quite like you can just barely hear the whisper and cant make out the words, that's the airflow your looking for but its a reverse whisper because you want to inhale not exhale. After holding try to let go of the smoke by breathing out your nose as you absorb what's left of the hit that way. If your pulling DMT hits as hard as you can your doing it wrong and need to reflect on your settings and ask yourself if there set correctly.
TC Mode is invaluable for many reasons. Even if its hard to understand at first. Once you set it up correctly its extremely hard to burn your spice. When my mod box is in watt mode the resistance is only updated every second or so. This leads to an issue where the resistance is wrong after I load the device. The resistance would drastically lower if I wait 30 min or I can force the issue to happen by telling my mod box its a new atomizer. TC mode fixes this because it updates the resistance in real time, as soon as press the fire button the resistance fixes itself where as in watt mode it would blast it for a sec before it updates the resistance. In TC mode there are 3 things which you need to pay attention to. First if the material of the mesh, second is the operating temp, and last is the wattage the devices pulses. If one of these things are wrong the mesh will burn your spice without hesitation. My mesh is made from stainless steel (SS), other mesh types include Nickel (Ni) and Titanium (Ti). Your mod box differentiates these materials because they a have a different TCR value. If your mesh is SS then set your mod box to TC - SS mode, that's it. If your device doesn't have a mode for different metals you could manually set the TCR value. The operating temp should be 204° C or 400° F, my mod box let me get a higher operating temp in C then F kind of quirky. Last thing is the wattage, I didn't even know I could edit the wattage in tc mode till after I read the manual. Its important to change it to a reasonable wattage. I use 15-20W depending on how much I put on it. The meshes temperature will fluctuate slightly around the operating temp, this is because its not constantly suppling power to the mesh instead it pulses the set wattage until it reaches the operating temp at which point it stops until the meshes temperature lowers again. If you set the wattage too high it will burn even if its set at 204° C because it peaks well over that temp.
I stopped using Watt mode on my vape but ill describe my experiences with it. I use 13-17 watts. Its important to focus of the temperature during the inhale as the mod box isn't paying attention to the temperature and could easily burn DMT if your inhale is inconsistent. if you need to sharply inhale to keep the temperature under control you need to lower your settings. Your looking a consistent temp that is just barely enough to vape your DMT. I would say start low at 13W and increase it watt by watt until you get it where you want it. remember a soft reverse whisper anything more is going to lead to inconsistency.
Few more things to mention. The airflow coming in is important as well every atomizer is different, but your looking for small airflow to softly pass over the whole mesh if it has no airflow its just going to get hotter til it burns like hell. This is probably the least important factor and once you have it set up and figured out you will never need to differ. Just be aware thats its a factor and it needs to be accounted for when you load it. If your using custom shapes for your mesh TC mode will not work this applies for meshes that are not meant for vaping as well. The Environment can aid with destressing you, whether its incense and hippie lights or outside next to a flowing stream find a place you feel comfortable. Music changes the experience drastically.
