    Itchy but no hives or rash

    I wonder if the itching is a result of your body detoxing from the additives put into tobacco cigarettes. It could literally be coming out of your pores and causing the itching. Just a thought.

    Chemicals in analogs.. nic level.. et all..

    Odds are good that you'll want that 18mg at some point in the future so don't throw it away. I started at 36mg and stayed there for about a year before stepping down to 24mg. I think I stayed there for almost another two years before stepping down to 12-18mg, which is where I am now. I'm...

    ok so my neighbor gave me a pull of a green smoke e-cig today

    It sounds more complicated than it is. You have your battery (provari in your case) plus a cartomizer or tank that you fill with your favorite liquid. That's pretty much it. If you find this intimidating go for a KGO or Ego Twist and some cartomizers or clearomizers and you'll be good to go...

    how long after starting vaping did you stop smoking analogs?

    Same day, after 37+ years of smoking and numerous attempts to quit. Once I started to vape, I never smoked again.

    Disappointed again...

    Try a KGO or Ego Twist with an XL Smoktech cartomizer @ 1.7 (or 1.8?) ohms. You can buy them in bulk from Crystal Clear Vaping. I don't like the dual coil cartos; they just don't work well for me. Ditto for the clearomizers. They're ok in a pinch but they don't pack the same punch as the...

    Where do you buy Cartos, Clearos, etc.?

    Another vote for Crystal Clear Vaping. Hoosier is also good.

    KGO, what to get screwed on it? KGO help please...

    I love my KGO with Smoketech 1.8ohm XL cartomizers. Fabulous. I also have some of those clearomizers/CE4 thingies and they're ok - just not as good as the cartomizers. You'll probably end up trying lots of different things, so don't stress about it too much right now. Just order something...

    Day 1 without an analog!

    I had to use 36mg for nearly a year to stay off the analogs, so you're not alone. I did stop smoking immediately but the cravings surfaced occasionally; I just ignored them and vaped away. Now it's almost 3.5 years later and I'm still not smoking; nic level is now down between 12mg-18mg...

    Backwoods brew

    I love BWB's Espresso, Waffle and Caramel Cappuccino. They have a new flavor out that I just tried that's like an Orange Julius. It's a very light flavor but it's quite good... and it does taste like the old Orange Julius that I remember from my childhood.

    I vape all day on 36mg but I've noted some vendors won't sell it, WHY?

    I vaped it exclusively for over a year and had no problems at all. I think that the industry standard has settled in with a max level of 24mg so that's the guideline that most vendors follow. I don't think there's a health-related reason for it.

    waffle suggestions?

    Backwoods Brew has excellent Waffle juice. It's my go-to vape nowadays.

    Hi I'm new

    That's interesting. The drawbacks you cite for cartomizers are how I feel about clearomizers: they have an odd plastic taste and they are not reliable. That has been my experience. A SmokTech 1.7ohm XL carto is nirvana. No off taste for me at all.

    Push in the right Direction.

    You sound like a good candidate for either a KGO or an Ego Twist. Buy a kit, which should include two batteries, a charger, and probably cartomizers or clearomizers. Don't buy a regular Ego because the voltage is too low and you probably won't get that "bite" you're looking for. For juice...

    Single Coil 1.7 in a DCT tank ... Now we're cooking !!

    I don't like the double coils either. Give me the 1.7ohm XL Smoketech carto on my Twist or Itaste and I'm happy as a clam.

    Backwoods Brew 4 flavors THOROUGH review!!!

    I have had a bottle of Malty Toffee steeping for months; I just figured it was a write-off because I hated how it tasted. Maybe I'll dust it off and give it another try. My favorites from BWB are Espresso, Waffle, Caramel Cappuccino and Dulce de Leche. I never have to steep them. I use them...

    How long it will take you to break even

    I'm definitely saving money now because cigarettes would cost me $350-$400+ per month and I'm spending an average of $100 on vaping supplies and goodies. In the first year, when I was trying all sorts of new juices, ecigs and gadgets, I was spending as much or more than I'd spent on cigarettes...

    I feel ripped off: "Dune E-cigarettes" contain 0% nicotine?

    That looks like some sort of 808 type battery or something along those lines. It may be proprietary. I'd suggest that you cut your losses and just buy a couple of Ego Twist batteries with some of those C4 clearos that everyone raves about and/or buy some XL Low Resistance Smoke Tech...

    First day off cigs and vaping help please

    I would recommend that you buy two bottles of the same e-juice, one in 36mg and the other zero nic. Adjust as needed till you figure out what nicotine level works for you. I was on 36mg for nearly a year. I could barely taste the 18mg; it was like vaping bad breath. Nowadays the 18mg tastes...

    I feel ripped off: "Dune E-cigarettes" contain 0% nicotine?

    They didn't rip you off - it is not legal to sell e-cig cartomizers/liquids with nicotine in Canada. Yes, it's a ridiculous law when you consider that you can go into any corner market and buy nicotine products like cigarettes & cigars. I would strongly encourage you to go to the Canada...
