Introduce Yourselves:

[Marius Combrink]

Hi guys,

Been vaping for about 1.5 years now. Started with a Twisp Clearo, at first I was a bit sceptical of trying something else.
Changed jobs recently and one of my new colleagues has been "mentoring" me.
I am now using an iStick tc60w with Melo2 tank 3 weeks and my interest has grown rapidly.

Hello and welcome.
As @Silver stated. Most of us started with the clearo style vape and then it just steam rolls from there. Always wanting more flavour better theoat hit and bigger clouds.
But the main thing is to have fun with your flavours and enjoy the ride on your clouds.

Hi Peeps,
I'v always been a casual smoker, so wanting to quit was not the main reason for vaping.
The reason was because racking hubs is just too much of a las especially between dota's.

I got my Kanger subox mini about 2 weeks ago after reading recommendations here and it is amazing.
I even went out partying, battery died, had a cigarette and then I almost died.
I don't think I could ever EVER go back to smoking.

Atm i'm vaping papa smurf and cloudsat which I love, tried mango and candy mint but they aren't so great.

Anyways

Welcome @NeXuS , @Heino13 , @Tailedfox and the others I have missed.

@Tailedfox , now the next phase of vaping starts - finding that ever-elusive, often rumoured, 'perfect all-day-vape' e-liquid perfect for you. It hides somewhere between all the medicinal tasting fruits, the blue-soap flavored berries and rose petal tasting desserts.
If you are lucky, you'll find Nirvana quickly and your taste buds are happy ever after, or till the next tasty blurb of this new juice catches your eye.
Hopefully some of the excellent reviews done elsewhere on the forum assists in that regard

Oh, mod envy... avoid it at all costs. It's part of the natural progression, but it seriously hurts your wallet.

Evening all. Been vaping for 2 months now and loving it. Smoked for 30 odd years and have'nt touched one for 7 weeks, filthy damn things . Started on Twisp (tx a mil Twisp for TV ads) as that's all I knew. Got a Subox Mini now and :hug:. I can see this is going to be a hobby and bankrupt me but I'll take it . Browsed around here and seen some great advice for rookies like me, thanks a mil.

 

[Kuhlkatz]

Welcome @ESpok. Making that switch is a good feeling.
Vaping is definitely a great hobby, but if you are happy with your kit and it works, it doesn't have to be the perfect diet for an oversized wallet.

Enjoy your stay. Plenty of us amateur vapers here, but there's plenty of pros too - with lots of advice.

Welcome to the forum @ESpok
Loved your intro
Big congrats on 7 weeks off smokes after 30 years on. That is a great achievement indeed
Wishing you all the best for your vaping journey. Feel free to ask questions as you go

Hi, I was a heavy smoker for many years and compulsively decided to try e-cigs. First thought it was a gimmick however having tried gum, sprays and patches, I have to admit vaping managed to drag me away from the stinkies for 2 months and no thoughts of turning back. Been enjoying this forum so much that I decided to join. Thanks to everyone for all the good advice that I have seen here and how supportive the Vendors can be. Using Eleaf mods and tanks with 0.5 Ohms at 30 watts being my favourite resistance/power for flavour and vapour.

Hopefully Santa Claus will get his elves to start packing e-juice

Hey guys

New to ecigssa also new to vaping

Was a smoker for almost 15 years joined the vaping revolution 5 months ago and never looked back

First device was a eleaf tc 40 with a aspire triton tank with o.4ohm coils was amazing tried different juices and I was loving my new lifestyle, something happened and my device broke got myself an Ijust2 with a 0.3ohm coil due to the amazing coil I was loving my new device but a week later the coil gave in and started giving me dry hits inserted new coil and again loving it, during this time I new I needed to get me something else as a second device due to the high consumption of coils, I decided to enter the world of RBA's got myself a evic vtc mini 60w and the goblin mini, 26 gauge kanthal wire and jap cotton

After 3 days of struggling I finally got my wicking right and may I say what an amazing atty it is...

Keep on vaping...chase those clouds
BOOOMMM...

Welcome @foGGyrEader. There are plenty of good juices to pick from, so you'd better start throwing hints in the direction of whoever is going to write that letter to Santa, so the elves know where to get the stock. Love that Avatar pic of yours, it will help @Rob Fisher remember to take his medication every time you post, otherwise he's going to keep adjusting the screen
Glad you decided to join & introduce yourself.

Welcome to you @Anwar as well. Glad you got sorted on the wicking. There are threads on the goblin mini wicking which I see you already discovered. I'm sure @Marzuq has his permanently attached to his one hand, even if he's vaping on another device in the other. These guys are always willing to share successes and tips how to keep things simple and still perform like a champ.

As an FYI for both of you, @Wyvern is organizing a get-together in Cape Town if you want to meet some of the vapers in your area. Yep I know - funny people these vapers. Actually organizes socials, who would have thunk. It should be fun though - details at http://www.ecigssa.co.za/cape-town-meet-cbc-brewery-12-december.t16861/.
Have fun here and keep Cape Town cloudy.
