April 2025 will be remembered as the month the South African vaping industry got smacked with not one, but two punches straight to the gut.
First, the United States hit us with a 30% tariff on South African exports — a move that's already starting to choke off our ability to compete in one of...
Glad you like it. I wish I could take credit for this amazing book, but it is not my work.
It makes me think of creating a recipe book of my own. Maybe we can create an eCigSa recipe book.
Totally fair! Not every juice has to be a custard bomb
There’ll definitely be a wide mix of flavour profiles on the table—fruits, tobaccos, candies, wild experiments, you name it. If you end up pulling through, you might even inspire a whole non-custard section
The more palates, the...
Why BLCK is the Perfect Fit
The venue for this DIY Mix Meet is BLCK—and I couldn’t have picked a better spot. This isn’t just a vape shop. It’s where I get 90% of my flavour concentrates and mixing gear. It’s more than a store—it’s part of the journey. If you've ever been to BLCK, you know what...
Disposable vapes have infiltrated our lives with an almost unsettling ease. They're the phantom limbs of modern convenience, appearing in pockets, handbags, and the neglected crevices of our vehicles. But more often than not, they end their journey as discarded husks, littering our streets and...
I get that nicotine pouches have their place, but I don’t really see how they fit into a vaping forum. A big part of quitting smoking isn’t just about nicotine—it’s the hand-to-mouth habit, the inhale-exhale routine, and the overall experience. Vaping still provides that, which is why so many...
We have had one of these events before at the Mad Giant Tap Room, and it was amazing.
I tried organizing another one some time later, but due to travel, I was not able to pull it off.
This time, the date is set, and I couldn't ask for a more fitting venue.
If you managed to read this far and you like what you see, why not join us at BLCK on the 3rd of May for a DIY mixing meet-up?
I am sure it will be loads of fun.
I. The Rise of DIY E-Liquid Mixing in South Africa
Vaping in South Africa has blown up faster than a dry hit at 100 watts. As more people ditch the stinkies, many are looking for ways to take their vaping experience into their own hands—enter DIY e-liquid mixing, the rebellious stepchild of the...
I love the enthusiasm, folks! But let’s be real—if I handed out coils to everyone who 'would love to try them,' I’d be out of wire before I even got started. If you’re keen to give them a go, they’re up on the site waiting for you. And since you’re here, use the discount code eCigsSa at...
Fair take, and I respect the skepticism. Some ‘influencers’ are just glorified salesmen, I won’t argue that. But that’s exactly why I’m doing this my way.
I’m not handing out freebies to anyone who’ll just nod along and say ‘fire flavor, bro’—I want real vapers, guys who actually use the coils...
Hey fellow vapers,
I’m looking for some local talent to help spread the word about Old Goat Coils—but I’m not just handing out freebies to anyone. I want to find vapers who love their builds, take great photos, and have the reach to make an impact. So here’s the deal:
Nominate your favorite...
Look, I’m not going to lie; I was scratching my head like a goat trying to solve a Rubik’s cube when I first tried to wrap my mind around the Thunderhead Creations (THC) and ThunderCloud situation. And if I’m confused, I’m betting I’m not the only one. The vaping world, for all its innovation...
The Blaze of Glory: When Vaping Titans Butt Heads (But in a Good Way)
Ever feel like the vaping world is just bleating out the same old tunes? Well, hold onto your horns, folks, because the Thunderhead Creations (THC) and ThunderCloud saga is about to shake things up more than a goat in a tin...
