    Heavy smoker needs help - Vaping not working so far

    (1) Am I expecting too much from e-cigs? With so many success stories on this forum, I really had high hopes. No you are not expecting too much but you need the right set up and juice for you. (2) Is it always so hard to inhale the e-cig, or did I (maybe) just get a crappy one? No its not...

    How did u find vaping?

    I bought a cig a like to use where I couldn't smoke, charged the battery and have not smoked since. So I stopped by accident, best thing I ever did.

    Beating the craving for that first analog in the morning?

    Exactly what I was going to suggest. It makes sense that you are short of nicotine when you wake up, so keep your PV by the bed and vape before you even think of getting up for your morning coffee. Get that nicotine into your system and see if it helps and if you still want an analogue then go...

    About the safety of the e-cigs

    Welcome to ECF :) I found this study some time ago on passive vaping that may help. I would agree that e cigs cannot be stated as 100% safe but they are for sure safer than smoking tobacco. So we are really discussing harm reduction when we use an e cig...

    I think I am using my vivi nove wrong.

    Stock wick is usually silica and that you can dry burn. Try the putting a drop of your juice onto the wick then re assemble your tank and fill as normal. Let it sit for a few mins before you try it to get the wicks totally wet with the juice. You can also do a few pulls on it like you are using...

    I think I am using my vivi nove wrong.

    Can you describe how you did the dry burn please? It sounds as though you are not getting all the bad stuff of the heads when you are doing it. When I dry burn these heads it takes a few goes to get them clean of gunk. If you are going to rewick them with cotton you can't dry burn them then as...

    vivi nova tank stopped working

    Try the base of your other tank with that head, see if you can narrow down what is not right. I have had a few heads that were DOA so check that first.

    Swapping chargers?

    I have KGo batteries and twist also, they both use 420mah chargers. I have the KGO charger that came with my sets and a Joye eGo/eGo T /eGo C Mega Powered USB Charger which was the recommended charger for my twists. I can use both chargers on both batteries as they are the same rating when I...

    Rebuilt Vivi Nova not producing much vapor..?

    Is it burnt taste like burning rubber? You could make the legs of your coil out of non resistance wire that may help. Also you are priming your wick before you first fire it? Once cotton is burnt rewicking is the only way to get rid of the burnt taste.

    Vaping for 4 days now....

    Congratulations to both of you jb80 and claudia6913 Welcome to ECF :) I saw some advice a little while ago, I wish I could remember which thread and who said it but it stuck with me and I have passed this on to a few friends. Don't think of this as stopping smoking, think of it as changing...

    The new KGO VV - Hoosier ECig

    I don't have the new KGO VV but I did want to say that I have purchased from Hoosiers a few times now and have nothing but the BEST service. Have you ever purchased from them ShogaNinja? I think running down suppliers in threads is wrong and should not be allowed we have a place for negative...

    What surprised you the most in switching from smoking to vaping?

    My biggest surprise was when I worked out what 43 years of smoking had slowly taken away from me. They say you don't miss what you never had and that was true for me, now I know what I was missing, taste, smell, better health all around, and acceptance from others, including my biggest surprise...

    Will vapes really get banned?

    I agree with the regulation coming in the future, if governments can make money in taxes they will, so I see a nicotine tax coming in the next few years, if not sooner and regulation on juice suppliers. The equipment will be harder to tax but it could come to some countries. Luckily I live at...
