Most welcome to the forum. Congrats on kicking the stinky habit. Vaping is an awesome hobby with DIY the most fun for me. Happy vaping.

Thanks Andre, it's been great not having to choke on the stinkies. The people around me are grateful as well
Also enjoying the DIY most of all, especially when the end result is a success and an enjoyable vape

Hi

I am Donovan

Been here a while and havent yet introduced myself. I saw my first vape in December of 2015 where a friend of mine introduced me to the world of vaping. Went on to buy myself my first cheap kit that is now gathering dust, while I run my griffin on a vtc mini. Been off ciggies now about since end of Jan.

While staying in what is considered a rural area, where vaping is foreign and only twisp in known. Converted a few and have started a small community. I also DIY for the most part incase we run out and are tempted. Must say thank you to the awesome forum for support and advice.

Regards

Hi all,

I haven't yet introduced myself, even though I posted my first two threads last week.

The threads were concerning what noob setup to get as I wanted to get back into Mod vaping after using twisp devices for over two years, even though I initially started out with Mods over three and a half years ago.

After the advise I received on the threads, I've acquired a Eleaf iStick Pico and have never been happier. I also purchased an extra battery and a twin battery charger and I must say the convince of always having am extra fully charged battery is just amazing.

So Hi all, I love this forum and read the topics daily. Keep up the great work.

Hello There,

As introduction:
I'm 37 just moved back from Dubai. Been a smoker for the last 15 years, I enjoyed the sisha (hookah) in Dubai. Stumbled on a twisp ad by accident and got myself the Aero and a solo for my better half two weeks ago, had a puff or two then got online to see what other flavours they've got and what a new world I discovered. I bought myself a joytech e-grip II the next day, which opened the next door.
I got the twisted messes RBA with some kanthal, cotton and a coil building kit the next day and did my first build the same day. Managed to get a dual coil build that read at 0.62 ohm on the regulated device and was an even better vape than the stock BF SS316 0.5 ohm.
Next day I figured out the temperature control and was again intrigued and learned some more.
I've been off the stinkies since I got the Aero, my wife struggled a bit with the solo so I let her use the egrip for a bit this weekend and now I'm out of a mod. I'm now awaiting delivery of a Smok H-Priv 220W can't make up my mind on a tank for it though, it comes with the TFV4 micro, but I don't like to be limited by the pre-built coils, maybe the griffin 25R? with it some base liquids and concentrates to start working on my own flavours and I've gotta start looking into homebrew mech soon, but will have to spend some time on this to be an the safe side.
Anyways, good to see there's a proper community in SA, this stuff is awesome

Cheers Moz!

[KyleH]

Hi all,
Name is Kyle and I stay in Hillcrest, Durban. Started vaping as a new year's resolution and haven't looked back. Proud as after 12 odd years of smoking I didn't think it was gonna be so easy. Started basic with an istick 40w and ijust2 and quickly got caught up in it. After a fair share of mods and tanks my current set ups are a Pico as a daily with either a theorem or protank4, and my baby is my rx200s with my avocado24.
Haven't been to any meets as yet but from the people I have met and the local vendors I can truly say the vaping community is an awesome and welcoming one.
Looking forward to meeting and learning from all of you.
Cheers

Welcome @Mozia and thanks for the detailed intro
Congrats on the vaping. Amazing how this becomes an all consuming hobby quickly for many.
I cannot advise you too well on the latest and greatest tanks for the H-Priv - i havent tried the latest but I do like my Crius V3 and my Subtank Mini
Enjoy your stay

Thanks for the advice @Silver the Crius V3 looks like a nice solid tank, the Subtank mini also looks really nice, but looks like it might be tricky to get a coil in there.

Hi Guys and Girls,
Here's my intro. I got my first vape(twisp clearo x2) about a year and a halve ago, and it went well for about a month. I then started smoking full time again, and forgot about the twisps. Earlier this year I got a twisp aero, which also didn't cut it. I then bought my first REAL vape, as well as one for my girlfriend, and have been going strong from there(although she doesn't manage that well). I am also experimenting with DIY e-juices, and loving it.

Great forum by the way. Some good info around.

Hi guys

Just wanted to introduce myself, smoker of around 25 odd years and got myself an AIO just over three weeks ago, haven't touched a smoke since. Started off as just trying to stop smoking and didn't realize what a huge scene we have in this country. I'm loving it at the moment.

I'm looking forward to learning alot more about the vaping scene and to kick that godawful habit once and for all.

Most welcome to the forum. Three weeks! You have already kicked the stinky habit. Congrats. Your taste buds should be acting out round about this stage. Do shout if you have any questions. Happy vaping.

Welcome @Soutie !

Congratulations on kicking the habit! Even though vaping helps a lot it is by no means a small achievement. The Aio is a perfect place to get into it from smoking! No doubt your eyes are beginning to look in the direction of some new kit by now?
