hello and i am happy to be here

[79Silo]

thanks for the warm welcome , yeah i am reading a lot that people start with a higher mg juice and than decrease from there.. this is were i am leaning towards myself.. but here is question ? while i do understand that you can not calculate the equivalent mg hit of a reg cig. but i was wondering say my brand that i smoke (reg cig) is rated at 1.2 -2.7 mg?, what would that be roughly in MG juice ?

As for me i started from 24mg.. then it satisfied me for a few weeks and forget about analogues.. then i started to feel that the throat hit is too much.. starting from there i decrease to 21mg but mixing 24mg/ml + 18mg/ml then devide by 2 you'll get 21mg.. Now i stick to 18mg.. try lower than that but it seems i don't get the throat hit i want.. That is just a start, then issue with flavour.. when i started i need something that nearest to a analogue but i didn't get it and started to change .. now I'm into fruit's flavour apple, peach etc.. The only near tobacco flavour that I'm vaping now is RY4

So to answer your question, this is from my point oof view 24mg would be sufficient.. Hope this will help you a bit

For somebody who smoked half a pack per day, I would say you might want to start at 18mg strength.
In my opinion that is more likely to be too high for you than it is to be too low.

but the thing i do know i will need it to be as close to a reg cig taste as possible

Yeah, I am pretty sure we all said that before we started.
Most of us found out we were wrong though.

But there are a lot of us the really do prefer the tobacco flavors, so you might be right after all.
But don't be surprised if you find you would rather vape strawberry shortcake, caramel pecan danish, or junior mint flavors.

but like i said if any one can steer me the right way ,than i am all ears

Again, for a half pack per day smoker, I think you can probably get by just fine with a Kgo/Ego/Riva/EPower sized model.

The big question is what are you gonna stick on the end of that battery.
And for that question you will get dozens of different answers.

thanks for that DC2 well the reason i know that it has to be close to a real cig(flavor) is because once before i stopped smoking for 3 months ,,with the dang patch right ,so i would of thought i would have something else to compensate for the lake of smokes .. but it never came ..i mean not a fan of candy ,or anything like that ,so this is based on what happened before, smokes for me have to taste like smokes ,

ohhh and thank you for the advice also when you mean (what are you gonna stick on the end of that battery).. do you mean carts and that stuff?


but if you have suggestions on the models you think would work, i love to here it

The closest flavor I have found to tasting like a smoke is Vaperite Tuscany Tobacco.

If you want to try that, you can get a sample of it here...
Vaperite - Tobacco Sampler Pack

If you want you can get three samples of the Tuscany Tobacco, or you can get a couple of other flavors to try.


The best tobacco flavor I have found, that reminds me of a smoke only better, is Dekang DK-TAB.

You can get a small bottle to sample, with very reasonable shipping, at this link...
DK Tab E-liquid Valley Vapor

As for suggestions on hardware, I generally leave that up to others.
I found what works for me well over two years ago and haven't tried anything else since.
