I remember that time Christie. They rattled me so bad that I ended up i the hospital for a week as they were thinking I had a heart attack. Ended up they were wrong. It was a stroke! No nic no electric no ac and no fun for weeks. I probably had the episode just so I could get into the hospital ac! Nobody ever told me about juices not always being ready to vape either. Its been a crap shoot for me.

Maybe you are the lady they make 1.6 or 2.4 ml tanks for! Then you can take several to work and change out if the mood strikes you!

Nice. congrats bro

I smelled something going on anyway. Im a month into no tobacco and I still know next to nothing. This guy sounded or was trying to sound like he was Joe Expert. That really made me feel a bit dumb. I could tell you folks more about what I dont know than what I do. I'm still running scared that this wont stick. I'm still having physical changes and potties that are 'different'. Im still jonesing for a pipe in my teeth or a cigar sometimes even tho I dislike the smell now. That may be the nic or lack of it someone told me. I'm at 12 and may need to boost it up. But that was some kit! Probably cost him several hundred dollars!

OK if that ends up true for me then either I am very picky or very unlucky in picking juices! I do have one however that was perfect the day I got it. Nicquid's Strawnanna Smoothie and cafe E-cig vanilla Custard. The other 6 Nicquid juices I got were nasty to me. Maybe my tasters are still calibrating? Its only been about a month for me. In any case I hope the others come around!

Welcome Jill!

Welcome Suzanne! You have just found the finest group of caring people you possibly could! We will all help you in every way we can for as long as you need or want! Dude! and I thought *I* was obsessive Compulsive!

I am sure you will enjoy that Uma. Be sure to take pics for us!

Oh you mean the ones I have? They have not quite one week I think. They are starting to smell like what they were supposed to be. Apple pie, melon with other fruit, vanilla, banana, etc. I will give them more time I guess. Maybe they will turn into vape juice sometime.

No brother. I have two new ones coming in today I hope. I know one of them I should be able to use as I had a sample and it was awesome immediately. This one is 15 or 30 ml I dont remember. NicQuid Strawnanna Smoothie. It hit me right the moment I first tried it. I'm waiting for the mail truck coming anytime now!

Jeff, I havent heard of any of those. Do they require massive steeping before you can use them? (That wont be an issue for me I guess once I get a rolling stock going I guess) Right now Im having issues finding stuff I can stand to use now.

I used to get that and kind of liked it! It was like a well aged Cubano at probably obscene amounts of Nic!

What BCarter said! A "Vodka Wash" could be a good thing for some of us once in a while!

Wow. That is impressive.Even now when I am vaping I still think of the cigar or pipe. I dislike the smell of burning tobacco now for some reason, but somehow it still calls. I won't consider myself free until I dont get that anymore. That is testimony to how this "Electronic Cigarette" stuff works. Awesome stuff.

Thanks Tam. I may do just that to thin them a bit. One of my G6 mini's tastes burnt all the time now or like pepper. I assume that means it isnt wicking. The little tanks are not rebuildable and are cheap so maybe a week is all it is good for. I have two more. I think my battery threads are 808 so this may be a proprietary system and I may not be able to use other tanks or carts. My carts have been washed out several times and are beginning to clog. I have one cart good and two mini tanks good. Its a week at least for my Fast Tech order so I may be into Njoys for a while waiting. (yuk) I will just have to see. I have some juices coming Monday so maybe this will be OK. I can already see the wisdom in back up equipment!

I have some juice that came in in 50/50 mix. It still needs steeping some but I tried it in the Halo G6 mini tank clearomiser. It seems like it is too thick to wick up? Or maybe the tiny .8 ml tank is too small? I am buying juices now in 80/20 or 70/30 but these are 50/50. Am I going to be able to use these and how? Thanks. Trying to learn something!

I have noticed a dryness or thirst probably from the PG but not itching. Could it be possible you are sensitive to PG somehow? I'm sure someone will chime in that knows more than I do on that.

Thats a Vamo and a pro tank yes?

I think I will get a 24mg once I can actually get a vendor who's juice is ready to use. It doesnt do me any good having juices in the steep that I cannot use. That is a good idea tho Tam. One I had not thought of. I thought I could pick 12 and just be ok. I still have not had an analog but did get an Njoy Bold disposable. They are strong and helped. Yea I will boost up my nic when I order next. Funny how none of this seems obvious to me now. It sure does when you say it.

When you do find a juice you like get lots of it. Im sitting here looking at 70+ ml that I cannot use yet as it still needs steeping to be usable. Try to find juices that are pre steeped if possible. Having lots of juice around that you cant use is hard. The nic is calling but having little to feed it is a bad day. My shipment should have been friday of stuff I know I can vape now but it wont be here until monday now. Hurting weekend for sure. Whatever you get as you learn you will get more and different equipment anyway so just get what you need to start. Thats the most important thing. Staying off tobacco. Thats the only important thing here in the first few days. Welcome!

Was their any other way? LOL yep. An old Msgt load crew leader gave me my first Cubano and said that if I was going to get his best cigar I was going to smoke it right. I think the thing was like 45mg or more! I got woozy and threw up but after everyone laughed it up I was part of the gang.

12? Yikes. I was 17 in the Air Force and going to nam. The guys took me to the NCO club and said that if I was old enough to serve I was old enough to drink and smoke. Lots of that went on. A lot of times we were too busy to eat so ciggs and cigars sufficed. Smoking 12 to 20 hours a day tends to get one hooked quick. I went to cigars because if I smoked ciggs I would chain smoke them. I was off tobacco for a while with respiratory issues but it keeps calling me back. Now this is the longest I have gone other than that medical time and I feel good other than a bit jittery still.

I went from smaller cigars at probably 12 to 18mg all the way to cubanos at way over 24mg I am sure. If you didnt have something to eat with them you would get sick. Fortunately I didnt get so many of those. Pipe tobacco I have no clue as they dont usually grade them by nic ratings. The next juices I get I will get 18mg probably. Thanks Tam. And Bebop12, I will try a T2 of course. The sky is Ceiling And Visibility Unlimited for me! (CAVU- old Air Force term)

I am at 12mg and am wondering if I should be at 18. Im a bit jittery and am finding some changes in my bathrooms. I might be detoxing from too light nic percentage. I dont really understand the dripping thing. It looks like it would use different equipment and looks messy. I know what you mean about muted flavors tho. The small carts I use with the fiber(?) inserts do mute the juice a bit. The mini tank (halo G6) are much better. I can only dream what a larger tank will be like. The iClear 16's are twice as big as the Halo mini's.

I havent quite found the fun yet Tam. Im still worrying about the nic you know? Will I be able to do this, will it work, and what will people say if they see me with some contraption. The Halo G6 looks just like a cig except mine is all black with a button on the side. Oh and a blue led on the end. The mini tank looks like a mini T2 with top coils. It is considered disposable as you cannot replace anything on it. use for a while, clean, then toss. It's Ok I guess. My main issue now is finding juice I can like or tolerate. I ordered an innokin iTaste VV/VW 800mah system with 5 Clear 16's. Those will be better than what I have now. That also means I can upgrade to all the nifty stuff you guys talk me into! I might like to try the T2 or T3. I was obsessive about my pipes and cigars and so I will probably be so about the e-vaping also. I will call it a hobby I guess! I do appreciate all of the help you give me and all the support that a newly stopped smoker needs. I caught a whiff of a cigar in the parking lot at my grocery store and it was nasty to me. That is good I think. I do breath better already.
