had my last analog yesterday morning..

[bullet08]

with vaping, it's not too hard staying away from the analog. hope i can keep this up. i think i might have pg/vg thing going on. have 70/30 pg/vg and it was very harsh.. should try 50/50 next time. i decided not to inhale. the lung hit off the magma was too strong with 6 mg of nic.

I had that same problem first couple months where I couldnt lung hit any dripper so I used CE5's and tanks instead and did mouth hits then inhaled but every week or so I would try the dripper again. Then I picked up a couple mini drippers like this one Smoktech Dripper RDA Mini Rebuildable Atomizer Single Coil 2 0OHMS Free Shipping | eBay and was able to lung hit with them. A week or so using this and I was able to start using my magmum and patriot with no problems.

I know everyone is different but with me I believe I couldnt lung hit from the damage all the years smoking did to my lungs. Now that I had a few months where my lungs been healing I can really enjoy the flavors dripping gives and blow huge clouds. I also cant drip with anything more than 3mg nicotine but use 10 mg in clearomizers.

And huge grats on no more analogs!!!

Big time Congrats!!! Just keep up the good fight! It won't always be easy but it can be accomplished. I was so heavily addicted to smoking that I quit quitting over 10 times. This time my mind was made up and I haven't looked back. Just remember that you want to quit and you can find all the support you need right here on ECF!

I started dripping pretty quickly, about 1 month in. My first big hit off of my own dripper was a huge cough of 12 grit sandpaper, i mean 12mg nicotine. It pretty much sloughed all the skin off the back of my throat. I of course did this after the guy at the vape shot advised me not to. But 6 weeks later I can vape 18mg on a dripper no problem. I rarely do and it is harsh but if I am stressed or jonesing for a smoke this quiets me down immediately.

That being said. I really enjoy the max VG blends on my dripper. If I want throat hit I up the nicotine to around 9. but I typically hover between 4 and 6. I see a day when I will be vaping somewhere between 3 and zero nic. Now I have a hard time using a tank it is like smoking an ultra light.

edit: And most importantly Congrats, forgot why I clicked reply I got so full of myself.

i had a co-worker who chewed nic gum for 10 yrs. he used to say " if they find out smoking has no direct health issues, i'll light up right now".. well, i feel the same way, but vaping is doing the trick. and i don't think i have an issue with pg. been doing direct lung hit all day and i'm feeling fine.

thanks all.

That's AWESOME.
It gets easier with time and when you get to the steep when you wanna build your own coils you will truly be at a lower nic level and eventually your cravings for the stinkies well subside. I found that rebuilding coils keeps me busy and In-turn make me wanna have a cig less and less.

Congrats on the switch! If your vape ever seems really harsh check your air flow. Makes a huge difference. 2nd most common culprit (for me at least) is the wick. I use cotton and too much or too little can lead to an unpleasant vape.

been using magma clone on penny clone. magma has dual coil built at .7 ohm right now. 510 on the magma is little too long and doesn't sit flush on the mod. just got TOBH clone in today, will have to build the coil tomorrow if i get some time. the middle air hole works great for me on the magma. i think i wasn't used to lung hit. with analog, it was always mouth first then lung. been playing with cotton last few days to find good amount to use.

Never tried my magma on a 510. Running at .3 ohms and firing it with a caravela mod and have it on the largest holes setting. The TOBH atty is nice but I prefer the magmum because it has the deep well and doesnt need juice as often plus to me, it delivers a better flavor.
