Vaping
Looked and didn't see a vaping thread, so figured i'd start one. Talk about what you used to smoke analog wise (1-2 packs a day/ a few a day), what you started with for e-cigs and then to vaping, your set up, favorite flavors/ vendors, etc.
I'm currently using a Zenith V2 atty with dual parallel dragon coils, and swap out periodically with a TOBH atty on a dual tiger coil set up, with a dynasty mod fit for a 18650 or 26650 battery. I don't have an ohm reading at the moment, but i'd guess they are both around a .2-.3ohm reading. I mostly use in house flavors from which ever shop I go to. since I first started the whole e-cig thing, I went from using 8mg nic content, all the way up to 36mg. Dripping with 36mg is IMHO deadly. I instantly get a headache and eyes water like a sprinkler system. So then I dropped down to 24mg, and still dripping at 24mg with 100% VG. I started off smoking a pack to pack and a half a day, and then introduced to the "Blu E-cigs", then to the slightly bigger tank e-cigs with just the replaceable coils, on to rebuildable tanks on an I-taste SVD mod, and now sub ohming RDAs with my current set up. My wife has always hated me smoking cigarettes, so I found a better alternative. I've got a better sense of smell since I've switched to digital, better breathing during running, better taste. I'll never go back to smoking a normal cigarette again. I haven't smoke a real cigarette like I used to in 14 months

Im using an Ego C upgrade battery with a Kangertech Protank II right now. Use 12mg of nicotine. Works well for me and gives me my nicotine fix. May get a stronger battery in the future, but don't want to walk around with a brick in my pocket!

I have like 200 juice reviews online. We keep them short https://www.youtube.com/user/DogAndClay
I favor a 18650 variable voltage mod and a Protank V2 |

Do these E-cigs really help? I smoke 2 packs a day, been smoking for 20 years. Always wanted to give it a try, but never knew what brand/where to buy.
Sub'd for more info. |

I smoked for 15 years and worked at Phillip Morris so I could smoke at my desk. Yikes! I quit the day my ecig arrived but everyone is different.
DJ unfortunately it is like getting your car right for you takes a while and will cost a bit of money. I did a lot of reading and research. I would highly recommend the E-Cigarette Forum and I would recommend some type of variable voltage unit. Without getting too much into it it allows you make you vape hotter or cooler because if you like a lighter flavor it will probably shine at a lower voltage whereas a rich tobacco flavor like a bit more heat. The real challange is finding a flavor you like. I would look for a vape store close to you and ask for samples (they will be glad to) if not then go to somewhere like https://freedomsmokeusa.com/ and buy a bunch of 3ml sampler packs till you find one you like. |

Well again if you have a vapor shop around you you can go look at various ones and try them out. May want to check online to verify their pricing tho

Oh, and searching and buying online is a lot more cheaper than going to a store too. Of course going to a store first will give you a better idea on things since you can physically hold the items and look at them.

I used to smoke like a pack and half a day of blue kent. I quit for a like 7 months but I still got urges up the *** and while I am here in SA my fiancé was all like " I dont mind e-cigarettes". so yeah.
I used to smoke south beach smoke's cartridge system but I quit that because I was tired of fricking menthol. me and the waifu went to the adult mega videoplex in SA and I saw that they sold E-cigs so I got one. right now I just have a basic new u vaporizer with ignite's cherry flavor. its pretty nice. alot more interesting than the cartridges i used to use. we got some flavors from nolavape coming in since alot of people said they are great for the more "special" flavors. funniest thing is my fiance who is anti smoking now is in love with vaping bahaha. currently she is smoking my cherry but she thinks its too much like cough syrup, she got some flavors but all nicotine free. she is especially into it because she is the type of girl that makes like her own soaps and such so she is totally into making her own flavors haha. since I always liked south beach smoke's cartridges we got her a starter kit from them currently she is looking into making a oreos flavoring |

I Vape just for the fun of it. I have never really smoked Cigs on a regular basis. I get my juice with 0mg of nicotine. I just like the flavor and it's fun.
Right now I am using a Vision Spinner 2, multiple voltage 1650mah battery with a Kanger Aero Tank. I am really liking not only the adjustable voltage on the battery, but the adjustable airflow on the Kanger as well. I am also into Virgin Vapor for their juice. It is 100% organic in either 100% VG or 50/50 VG/PG mix. I am using the 100% VG as I am some what sensitive to PG. Check them out at, Virgin Vapor | Electronic Cigarette Organic e-Liquid | Electronic Cigarettes I am using Razzamataz (Raspberry/Blue Raspberry Mix), Black Cherry Marshmallow, Blueberry, Honeydew, Plumb, Orange Dreamsicle, Maple Syrup French Toast. All of these taste exactly like the real thing. Unbelievable. The fact they are 100% organic is the icing on the cake IMO.

I went from a pack a day sober and 2 if drinking to FIN ecigs loved it since i could smoke in work and i dident have to take brakes as often but will dident do it for me.
from there i went to a tasty puffs ecig and basic clearomizer much better but still not enough to quit. then one day i just got sick from a analog cig felt real shitty so i relaxed felt better went back to work started stressing again so went out to puff my life away on an analog and again i felt really sick afterward or half way threw rather but i could still smoke my ecig. so from there obviously the switch to ecigs was very easy. since then i bought myself a KING MOD and a few drippers but for some reason alway going back to my nimbus clone. i love it! my favorite flavors are my everyday number on never gets old is (MANCH BY ALPHAVAPE) after i eat or am drinking a coffee or eating breakfast i enjoy ( UNICORN MILK BY CUTTWOOD) my back up is (LION BY ILLUMINATI VAPORS) |

so me and the wife got some new hardware.
I got the aspire nautilus with the joyetech evic waifu got a normal aspire BDC tank with her hello kitty ego style battery we got some new flavors from rocket fuels(cats meow is awesome) she got bandersnatch from alice in vapeland which apparently is like a peanut butter banana sandwich(I don't like it). also some atomizers for trying out **** and some cheap clearomizers for changing flavor when we want. atomizers are fun when we we randomly want to change flavors while home(since dripping is hard on the go) we use our main tanks for our flavors. (for me the rocket fuel cats meow and for her south beach smoke's white tea) my second favorite is nolavape's sour straws...its completely accurate. so far rocket fuel and nolavape are the best. shame we are going back to belgium soon. we don't know how many american brands ship international and honestly I have NO idea if there are any good european types. plus I don't think belgium has vapeshops at all since the EU wants to regulate them badly. one thing I am definitely getting are the BVC for my nautilus since everybody seems to love them waaaay more |

fasttech.com is where I TRIED to buy my hardware. Never made it to korea, and still havent seen it here back in the states yet either. I've ordered 3 different RDAs, and ohm reader, and 2 18650 batteries. Not knowing how the proper way of shipping the batteries was, is why I still havent seen them yet. A friend ordered from them as well, a week after i did, and received his package just fine, without buying batteries. I sent fasttech an email with my order number asking about my package and a possible refund, and they replied back stating they will investigate the matter, and if nothing turns up they will either reship my order to my new address in the states, or give me a 100% refund, which I thought was pretty cool. So, you can try to order hardware from them, just not batteries.
