Vapeing juice help

15 replies

Tipsykisses · 27/08/2014 08:55

I bought an ego t last year but didn't do to well on it and ended up smoking again Confused
After reading through your vapeing threads over that last few weeks I realised this was probably due to the liquid being to weak for me so I now have stronger liquid & 2 new kanngatech Smile
The problem I have is that I'm finding most of the fruity juices quite flavourless so I'm sticking mostly to menthol & mint flavours but I'd like a change without wasting any more money !!
Can anyone recommend a brand that does strong flavours ?
I'm in the uk .
Thanks in advance

I use mostly t juice which I mix myself, but have just treated myself to some from alchemist cupboard which I always find string tasting. Are you steeping your juices long enough before you use them? I find fruit flavours need a couple of weeks.

Hi Thanks for replying Smile
I'm still dual fuelling at the moment ...
2 real ones when I get up in the morning & then 1 (or 2 )in the evening .
This is a massive cut down for me as I've had a really stressful few months & was starting to smoke 30 a day and could've easily smoked more , it was getting ridiculous plus I couldn't afford it !

I've bought so far :

Hangsen , bubblegum , raspberry , red energy ,rhubarb & custard & mixed fruit

Ezee quit , vimto , raspberry ,

I clear , menthol

I've also tried different mint flavours from different brands , some nicer than others .

I usually just open them straight away hoping I will like them , are the better after a while standing ?

I read another thread which recommended the triphammer ones after I posted this so I'm excitedly waiting for my order Grin

Thanks Poltergoose ,
I'm quite pleased with how I'm doing considering all the stress & the kids being home for school holidays & it's already hundreds I've not smoked Smile
I'm taking the remain fags down slowly , when I first started vapeing I was smoking more in the morning before everyone got up & in the evening when the kids were in bed .

I'm using 24mg at the moment & when I have given up the rest of the real ones I will take the mg down , I'll keep my fruity juices until I'm on zero analogues .

Hi Tipsy. I dual fuelled for bloody ages! When I first started I was using cigalikes & managed to halve my 30 a day to 15, then when I got my tank system I got down to just 2 a day (first in the morning, and just before bedtime) & stuck there for a couple of months. Then one day I realised I hadn't had my first one of the day & that was that - well over 6 months ago Grin.

Looking at your list of liquids you seem to have gone for mostly the bulk brands like Hangsen. Perfectly OK, but not really the elite of liquids and you may find a make like Triphammer or Alchemists cupboard more to your liking - a bit more expensive, but well worth it if they help you lose those last 3-4 fags a day Smile

Cantabile · 27/08/2014 21:25

Hi Tipsy, well done on cutting as much as you have. I started vaping in October (can't believe it's nearly a year!) and I'm still dual fuelling, almost to my shame - but not quite Grin

I have to say, I was an absolutely determined smoker! There was no way I was going to be bullied into giving up. I was on nearly 50 a day and am still 'only' smoking 5ish - sometimes as many as 7. It's an enormous difference to me, though some people still recoil in horror when I tell them how many I smoke!

I have been using mainly Hangsen liquids, but today (probably read the same thread as you) I have branched out and ordered a load of different flavours from Triphammer and others.

SillyBlueHat · 27/08/2014 21:33

Cantabile - stories like yours make me hopeful that vaping will work for me! 5 or 7 per day is great compared to 50!

Cantabile · 27/08/2014 21:54

SillyBlueHat, are you vaping now, dual fuelling, or are you waiting to take the plunge?

It is almost miraculous how easy vaping makes not smoking. I barely noticed how few I was smoking.

Tipsykisses · 29/08/2014 09:41

Hi cantabil , I know what you mean !
Both dm df & both Inlaws are now non smokers , it's all I used to hear about !
I so loved smoking & wasn't bothered at all until I started having to buy 2 packs at a time & started to realise just how much I was spending plus wanting to smoke more !!

I have found using the kangertech really good , not even missed the analogues through the day if I'm using a juice I like , I'm surprised how easy it's been especially after the attempt last year with 6mg juice as I'd no idea about strengths Grin

Thanks for the advice on juices , I'll take a look at alchemists cupboard , any you recommend ?
I'm really hoping the triphammer ones arrive today !!

Tipsykisses · 29/08/2014 09:46

SillyBlueHat I never thought I'd be smoking so little so soon !
I wanted to see if I could cut down a bit and I'm very surprised at how quickly I've started to prefer my evod,
the only problem I've had is the juices which I think is sorted now Smile

Allergictoironing thanks for the advice , I've just ordered from alchemist cupboard , they had an offer on 5 10ml bottles !
The flavours look fab , will be I can't waiting anxiously for the postman now !!

Which did you go for in the end? I hesitated to recommend any as everyone's tastes are different e.g. almost everyone I know likes Energy Drink (red Bull) type flavours & I loathe them.

I think the Lemon Meringue Pie & the Pear Drops are my favourite Alchemist's Cupboard liquids

Letthemtalk · 29/08/2014 16:40

Alchemists pear drops are fab! I've never gone for tobacco flavours but I'm a moment of madness ordered their treacle tobacco, and it's actually quite good!
