Thanks, ASCIIcat!
Haha it wasn't that hard - I started off with 3 bottles of 18mg nic in Raspberry Rush, Menthol Ice and Creamy Mango. After a week, I ordered the 3mg in the form of Blueberry, French Strawberry and Peach. Now I don't even crave for those stinkies because I ordered the highest amount of nic first time round. I think only a few days after I started vaping, I was standing outside Home Affairs and someone lit one in front of me. I could smell it but didn't feel the need to have one. I think it's the combination of high nicotine in the ejuice and with some willpower...
Honestly, I prefer vaping, not only because it smells nicer but it's fun watching how much cloud I can create - no complains from anyone, not yet. I've been sneak-vaping in my mom's office and I don't think anyone can smell it anyway so it's a good thing.
Yello All,
Joined in preparation to give give up the stinkies! My first go at vaping was about 3-4 years ago with the Lung Buddy CE4+ and went quite well. Then back on the stinkies for a year or so then back to vaping exclusively for about 6 months. Liked it but leaking lung buddy was a peeve. Then bought a Twisp Aero (R1000 NOT well spent!) but for some reason it crackled and made me cough like crazy from the first puff no matter what I tried!!! Grrrr!
Now looking for a decent cloud with nicotine for a few months until I give it all up... suggestions will be appreciated. Was thinking of a simple starter kit in the 50W - 100W range where I can get my nicotine fix and see a hurricane cloud!
... as I plan to give up price is king!
Looking forward to learning more.

Welcome! Also just signed up today myself - I don't have any good things to say about the Twisp products range and I have an old Twisp Clearo model. I also used to cough on the first few vapes but now that's been 2 weeks, I think I am doing ok - just less coughing and more vaping. I've read somewhere that the coughing is actually caused by the high nicotine and another article says something about the back of the throat. Also when you quit smoking tobacco, you'll be coughing a lil more for about a week or so - that happened to me last week - so the good news is you'll actually get over it and start vaping superior clouds more than coughing eventually.
I'm upgrading to the iJust S - the rebuildable coils are cheap and easy to build. Good value for money to be honest (I'm getting all my stuff from VapeKing).
The thing is that I never had the coughing problem with the lung buddy not any other system I have tried... When I tried it out at the shop it worked fine... got home and it was all snap, crackle and COUGH! Hoping to pick up a decent second system or maybe a starter kit that meets requirement. Went into Vape King today to check things out but until I get more advice here I'm reluctant to lay out the dosh on something that might not do the job... good luck with the iJust S, hope it works a treat!
I was thinking of the Smok V8 starter kit or the iLeaf or maybe something as yet unheard of... will start a thread and get some opinions...

Hey guys
I'm Maseeh from CPT. I'm currently a student at CPUT. Been using a small cigalike about 3 years ago. I quit it shortly and recently gave it to a buddy to help him get off the stinkies. Lets hope it works.
Anyways, I am currently planning on purchasing my 2nd (I consider it my first though) device in the next 2 weeks, if everything goes as planned.
