Been tobacco free for 18 days

[blitzdude]

43 years old, was up to 2 packs a day. Started smoking at 16 and quit twice for about a total of 3 years in that timespan. Love the ecig, haven't had the urge for a tobacco cig since I started.

Not sure if I went with the right device or not, got those Vision spinner 1300mAh batteries with the CE4 clearomizers. Went with 24mg 50/50 mix PG/VG.

Only issues I have is I think my tanks might be garbage, sometimes I get a good hard throat hit (like I like) with good strong flavor but other times I seem to barely get any vapor, no taste and sometimes even a burnt taste. I'm guessing this is due to the cheap disposable tanks I am using. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I am already breathing much better and haven't put on any weight yet (like I did the other 2 times I gave up tobacco) but have experienced chapped lips. I mean it is winter time so it is the season but it seemed to start when I started with the ecig and hasn't gone away since. Anyone else have this problem?

Thanks in advance and love the forum. Looking forward to learning everything I can about the e-cig.

YAY!!! Keep it up! I'm on full day #2 today... struggling some today, but cigarettes aren't an option anymore

I'm vaping a 1300mAh Vision Spinner Rainbow with a Mini Protank 2, LOVE THEM!

Congratulations on your 18 days. I'm about where you are - and doing well, too. About the chapped lips..Everyone says you need to really stay hydrated when vaping and drink lots and lots of water. I'm trying to do that and it helps. I'm a gal, and wear liipstick, so that helps with the chapped lips. But I always have them in the wintertime, vaping or not.

Good luck and continued success in your journey.

LOL

Vision Spinner is my most-used device. Love it.

CE4 is my least favourite clearomiser. (Ouch....)

24mg is sensible, unless you smoked "lights" or whatever. A lot of UK people on 2 PAD of full strength use 36mg.

Good for you! you may want to try a bottom coil tank, in my experience they wick much better than top coils. I use kanger t3s mini clears currently, and I like them pretty well. Keep going, experiment, and you will settle on something you like.

My lips become noticeably more chapped on days of heavy vaping. Just learned that vaping can/will dehydrate you on this forum a couple days ago. Still, the positives far outweigh the negatives.

Chapstick and water are your friends now! I live in Colorado, where it is dry year-round, so we know how to hydrate! The cheapie CE4's are pretty crappy tanks. The Spinner though is a GREAT battery. I'd pick up some iClear 16's and a pack of 1.5 Ohm replacement heads. Great little tanks that are in expensive and easy to maintain. Fairly hassle-free as well. Good luck to you!
