As the old one is nearly full!

All & any vaping chat welcome.

No question is too daft to ask. We've all been there at the start of vaping in the minefield that it is.

Only rule is: No Willy Waving!!

Definitely a mouth to lung vaper - gotta make the most of those lovely flavours!

PlentyOfPubeGardens · 06/08/2015 19:38

I think the nicotine content can drop off eventually but it doesn't go off as such. Keep it in the freezer if you have a lot and intend to store it for a long time.

Good morning lovely vaping voters, I have been reading up on this board for the last 3 weeks and thought it was time to check in and say hi.

I am on day 19 of no stickies , started off with icigs (cartidge based things that I bought last winter) but I wanted something that tasted better. So lovely none smoking fiance bought me an ijust mini after a couple of days. Well haven't looked back! We went on a camping holiday with our 3 dc and I was a bit worried that I would turn back to rollies, but no am still going strong. Have ordered an istick 50 with mini aspire mini n (sp?) with the steel cage thing. My juice of choice is menthol, am now in the process of reducing my nicotine intake and have ordered some lower nicotine based juices from the £1 juice shop.

I woke up 19 days ago and thought today is the day, no more smoking. I had given up before I had children but resumed when I left xh 7 years ago.

Am loving the minty fresh breath and no longer wish to chew gum! I am so grateful for this corner of mn as reading all of your posts has helped me immensely.

Thanks

Voters??? Vipers

PlentyOfPubeGardens · 08/08/2015 21:32

Yay sammasati, welcome to the vaping vipery! That's excellent progress Flowers How many have you not smoked so far?

crispandfruity · 08/08/2015 21:40

Hello everyone, I'm in touching distance of six months! Which by my reckoning is about 3000 fags not smoked!!!

PlentyOfPubeGardens · 08/08/2015 22:10

That's brilliant, crispandfruity, well done Flowers

PlentyOfPubeGardens · 08/08/2015 22:13

I've just fired up my old spreadsheet. I'll have been vaping for 2 years at the beginning of October and so far have not smoked 10,125 fags!

Allergictoironing · 09/08/2015 07:31

18 months tomorrow, over 16,000 not smoked!

crispandfruity · 09/08/2015 18:45

I reckon I've saved well over a grand or so in cash. My vape outlay has probably been in the region of £200 since February. And a lot of my early motivation was down to reading this thread!!!

sammasati · 09/08/2015 19:55

Gosh plenty I haven't counted...... must be about 400 I should imagine. Thanks folks for welcome Thanks

I will soon be counting weeks and not days Smile

Am so looking forward to the arrival of my new kit, will hopefully be making my own coils in no time.

sammasati · 09/08/2015 19:58

Oh and a big thank you for everybodies input on these threads, you have all given me so much help, just reading others accounts of their no smoking journey has been fab. Well done all for such positivity

Allergictoironing · 09/08/2015 21:38

I'm not sure whether I love or hate my brother - went round today & he introduced me to some new flavours he'd found.

I've shown self control & only ordered 3 - The Drifter and The Dreamer by Vintage, and Tangerine by Elements. All gorgeous, not cheap but worth it!

pinkrocker · 10/08/2015 10:56

This thread disappeared off the "threads I'm on" so I'm checking in to say howdy.
Been one year and one month now whoohoo!

Thanks, Polter I didn't realise that Blush

Mimigolightly · 10/08/2015 20:19

My lovely new Cool Fire IV is lovely but my liquid seems to taste a bit different - is this normal? My wattage is almost the same as on my Aspire VV+ at 4.0 vs 3.8.
Also, do I need to adjust the voltage on it? I know what adjusting the wattage does, but what would adjusting the voltage do?

Can I join ye? I bought my 1st ecig today, eleaf icig. Have apple flavour juice to start off with.... will start vaping tomorrow! Anyone miss the smokes still when they 1st started vaping? I feel like I miss them already and still have some....

MazzR · 11/08/2015 19:39

Oh and I've another q. For the ppl that use different juices, do u need to change the bit the juice goes into every time? I only have the one that came with the set...

sammasati · 12/08/2015 12:41

Well done Mazz I have recently given up rollies and am a very happy vaper. The first few days were the hardest (cartridge icig things), by a week I was enjoying the eleaf mini ijust and now loving my istick/aspire vaporizer. With the liquid chamber you just refil as needed.

Ohhhh have just bought a mini istick for battery back up/pop into my pocket. Really am enjoying this vaping malarkey, branching out on liquid flavours, have ordered something other than menthol.

My friend has joined the ranks of gaping vipers, she has been enjoying her ijust 2, good to have a to friend giving up stickies with and to chat about the wonders of gaping much to my dp's relief

sammasati · 12/08/2015 12:47

gaping??? Bloody phone, vaping

Mazz, I do still sort of miss it but I enjoy the benefits more.

An exciting development - a vape shop has opened within walking distance of my house! Had a chat today with a very handsome young member of staff today about coil building and cloud chasing. And I tried some fancy juices.
