    Welcome to the forum! I was a two pack a day smoker for almost 30 years. I started smoking when I was two. :lol: I had no intention of quitting- the idea that it would happen just didn't occur to me. I didn't put pressure on myself and started with a setup very similar to yours. I...

    What I've learned after 2 days on ECF

    As far as DIY, start simple. A few suppliers sell their flavoring premixed for you. You just purchase PG, VG & nicotine fairly close to the strength you vape (not too close as the PG, VG & flavoring will reduce the strength). That way you can practice mixing and you'll get something vapable.

    Online versus Vapor shops

    I've only been to one vape shop- didn't really buy anything,just checked it out. I but everything online,but I'm an online shopper. If I could buy everything online and never go to a store, I would. Except shoes of course. :laugh:

    Hey

    Welcome to the forum! I've been vaping for 5 years and have no intention of ever giving up vaping. I have years worth of nic in my freezer (and pretty much vape 0 nic most days) and plan to vape forever. Am I addicted? Probably, and I'm fine with that. :) I enjoy it tremendously. Love the...

    Hi all! New member - first vape kit on its way...

    Welcome to the forum! I started out with 24 mg. as well. Actually I bought the same liquid in 12mg and 24 and figured I would mix them to lower/raise the nic content. I needed 24 to get off cigs. You can always lower the nic content by adding a little pg. Listen to your body. You'll know...

    First batch of DIY liquid is Milky ? Right area to post ?

    That's what I do. Mix it, shake it several times, throw in a drawer for a week then vape.

    New to Vaping - What are the top 10 brands of E Liquid in the US?

    The vendor smoked that brand and I guess perfected it. It wasn't like vaping a Newport but it was sort of reminiscent of one. If that makes sense.

    No Voice after Vaping for several months

    When I started vaping I lost my voice intermittently. Just couldn't talk at all. Never found an explanation why and for me it did go away. I'm not a doctor and eventually just chalked it up to the weird changes my body was going through from quitting smoking/vaping. I was long time heavy...

    Would you date a smoker now that you vape?

    If you think it'd draw you back into smoking, probably not the best idea. Similar to people in recovery, if you're in AA or NA not a great idea to date someone actively drinking/using. If you're vaping for your health, might be something to think about I guess. Very good question. Like...

    Would you date a smoker now that you vape?

    Sure. If they didn't like my dog, that'd be a whole different story. Have to draw the line somewhere. :lol:

    New to Vaping - What are the top 10 brands of E Liquid in the US?

    I was one of those very rare people that did a bunch of research trying to find a liquid that 'matched' my brand of cigarette and got lucky. Of course that never happens but I hit on one that was recommended a lot and actually loved it. That didn't stop me from buying a ton of other liquids,but...

    New to Vaping - What are the top 10 brands of E Liquid in the US?

    Don't go overboard trying a bunch of flavors. Your taste buds are changing a lot. Find one or two that are you sorta like and stick with them. You may grow to love them. Acclimate yourself to vaping first. Otherwise you'll end up with a drawer with 100 bottles of liquid you don't like.

    Hello!

    Oh, there will be some bumps along the way. You'll get a liquid you hate and have some malfunctions. Just hang in there and ask! The forum is what got me over the rough spots.

    hi vaper pit here

    Diy can be tricky - particularly with cinnamon. Retired and Brother Bob gave you some good links. Maybe pick up a bottle at a local vape shop before experimenting? DIY isn't complicated but not the easiest thing in the world to get a flavor you love right away. Make sure to measure- and...

    Hello!

    Welcome to the forum! Don't put pressure on yourself. I never really thought about quitting when I started vaping- never really thought I could. I slooowly eased off cigs and after about a month or so quit completely. The last cig was hard but I really didn't pressure myself. Just found the...

    Day 10 of quitting cigs: Not being able to sleep more than 4-5 hours???

    This might help. http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/health-safety-vaping/3305-list-symptoms-when-quitting-tobacco-changing-ecigarette.html Nicotine is actually a stimulant. That's masked with all of the other ingredients in cigarettes. Could be a combo of both. I usually vape lower nic...

    Alcohol based flavorings or PG(or)VG based flavorings?

    Steven, I'll move this to DIY- you might get a few more responses. I do use some alcohol based super concentrated flavorings, and have not had an issue with them. Maybe you can tell us what flavorings you are using.

    Not much of a cook

    No need apologize. :D A few weeks into vaping I tried a basic DIY recipe it was such a disaster I didn't try DIY again for over a year. I revisited the idea of DIY again because I liked the idea of saving a little money and just the convenience of being able to whip up a batch of liquid when...
