I'm Stacey (HanaGirl) and I'm super super new to the world of vaping and e-cigarettes. I started with Blu a few weeks ago and then got a free setup sent to me from Green Smoke. I got a wild hair on Sunday and ended up buying an itaste vv 3.0 with a Davide mini and a couple kinds of juice for $90. Then yesterday I went to the mall and grabbed a Volcano tank and a mint e-juice that knocked my head off. Finally I stopped of at a local smoke shop and picked up a Justfog clearomizer with more juice.

So I've certainly gone overboard, lol. But I am looking for great flavors and awesome vapor. I also like that my itaste seems to know which tank I have on it and adjusts the power accordingly.

I have NO idea what I'm doing ;) I have been 5 years analog free, but I have started really wanting to light up. I decided the safest option for me would be to vape.

I'm excited to learn all I can from you guys.

And don't be jealous that I live on Maui. We're supposed to get hit with 2 storms starting tomorrow.

Have a great night! :)

Greetings, and I think you made a wise decision :) It will take some time to learn more about vaping and find your perfect vape. Lots of great vendors out there to choose from and eventually you will find one that suits your taste.

And if you ever decide that you want to get away from the storms and move to PA and enjoy our lovely ice and snow, I will gladly trade houses with you.

Hi Despraci, I left MD (Baltimore City ugh) to come here. By far the wisest and healthiest decision I made. I most definitely don't miss the snow!
I'm super excited to figure out what makes my perfect vaping experience. I don't want to keep shelling out money for tanks, that's for sure. And the flavors OMG! I'm like a kid in a candy store :)

Well there's a lot of good tanks with replaceable coils. Aero tank. Aspire Nautilus, both will work if you don't want to get into building your own coils. But if you do, Kayfun Lite Plus v2 are always a good option.

Howzit? West side girl here.
I'm not a huge fan of the vape shops we get here, but I'm glad we have em in case I need something right away. Seems to me there's lots and lots of vapers on Maui. It's awesome.
Don't forget to charge all your batteries in case we lose power. ;) Good luck with the storms... should be an exciting few days.

Pfffbt [emoji14]...I'm STILL jealous! I love a good storm, and a storm on Maui? WOW. *sighs wistfully*
We've led parallel vaping lives. [emoji1] My "Gateway Vape" (lol) was also Blu. After too many dry hits and leaky cartos, I got that same wild hair, and a little over a month later I've "collected" 5 batteries, 17 tanks (waiting on 6 more via vape-mail) and around 30 bottles of juice. [emoji5]
Obsess much? Haha
Welcome to the family, little Vape-Sistah. [emoji4] You're in good hands here. These folks are the best!

Welcome, and storms or not I'm still jealous. Sitting here in my 105 f. temps through the summer and dryer than talcum powder. But anyway, welcome home. And yes the flavors are amazing. My favorite ones come from

Bionic Vapor – Welcome They are so fantastic, take a look when you get a minute. Propets Drunken Cheesecake is the best vape I've ever had.

Aloha doctadrea!
I stay in Kihei and it's been sprinkling here for more than an hour already. Getting all my stuff in my yard buttoned down. Almost Pau now. I got my regular Green Smoke battery charged and my itaste is green so I hope I get a chance to recharge it before/if we lose power. I pray I don't start fiending for smoke if no power! LOL. I will NOT buy analogs! I'm happy we have some vape kiosks/smoke shops around, I'm such a newbie I must rely on the sales guy to not rip me off, lol.
Stay Safe!!

Welcome! My wife is from upcountry. She grew up in Kula and went to King K. We met after we both joined the Army and she is stuck living in MD with me for now.

Mahalo for you service (and your wife's too). I'm originally from Columbia MD but left for college. I moved back from 2004-2007 and it was awful so I'm blessed I had a chance to move here. Kula is beautiful. I'd love to live up there but I'd miss the beach too much!
