...the first is a generic PG only base and the second is a NAME brand with differing levels of nic available...the first ONLY comes as straight PG...the second can be had with differing nic levels, at 0mg nic it is actually the same as the first................

Ive never tried a hookah, but one of my friends has. I let him try my PV with a top vapor chocolate mint liquid in it and he said it tasted just like a hookah.

I did a little research on hookahs and found out that PV's are much safer. In fact it seems like hookahs are just as dangerous or more dangerous than cigarette smoking. So if your accustom to smoking hookas you should be ok with getting some nicotine added to your e-liquids.

Without actually burning tobacco like hookahs PV's / E-cigs will be safer with or without the nicotine added, although there is always some addiction risk and health risk with nicotine.

P.S. If your not already addicted to nicotine in some form, then getting the 0mg liquids was very smart IMO. If you smoke hookahs all the time you may want to consider adding nicotine to help with withdrawals.

I'm used to tobacco-free nicotine-free hookah :) Thanks for the post, this is reassuring to hear!

The type of hookah the I did was pretty safe, but the obvious thing that is still bad about it is that there is still some burning involved, hence there are still some ill-effects

Both my orders are shipped now... Can't wait!!!! Hopefully next week I'll be getting both :D

Thats interesting, I didn't know their was the option to use them without tobacco. Sounds cool but personally it would drive me nuts without nicotine being involved, as I'm very much addicted to it :p

Hope everything works out for you when you get your order, full of excitement I was checking the mail box before my order was even due to arrive. I always do that when ordering something new. :)

Haha me too!

I've got a question for the mixers. I haven't ordered any bottles or cylinders and the such... do I need to? If so, what do I need? I'm thinking of buying some generic PG and VG and atomizers and bottles or something like that.

Oh, and do I need High resistance atomizers for my PT? How many ohms am I supposed to go with? How about for my 3.7V? Is 2 ohms good or is 1.5 better or 2.5?

About the ohms, Im vaping at 3.7 volts and I use cartomizers between 1.6 and 2.0 ohm. Both ohms work fine for me at 3.7v.

I havent been able to properly compare 1.6 to 2.0 ohms though because so far all my single coils are 2.0 and my dual coil cartos are 1.6 ohms. Makes it hard to draw a comparison when im not only comparing a difference in ohms but 2 different types of cartos as well, But they both work fine.

Ive read in forums that somewhere around 3 or 4 ohms is good for 5v vaping.

Also that somewhere in the neighborhood of 5.0 ohms is good for 7.4 volts.

Thats what I remember reading but someone else may have more specifics for you on that.


Im not sure about the mixing of liquids because I've never attempted it but you probably need empty bottles at the very least, probably some syringes, and other mixing supplies. You already have some liquid and flavor to mix with but more could always help.

They sell some of what you may need where I made my first purchace at madvaves.... Empty Bottles Very good site for hardware BTW.
