Here's a little introduction that will give you a quick background of myself and will help craft (hopefully) responses that I will be able to comprehend involving vaping and my current questions about the iCare Mini. The questions I have are at the end of my quick introduction.
I'm new to vaping, I'm vaping because I had to quit smoking cigarettes. I was diagnosed with a rare autoimmune disease this past August (2016), and it affects many things, including my eyes/vision. And with my luck, I was notified that smoking cigarettes will likely prolong vision problems, if not make them worse. My endocrinologist said that I must quit or face dire consequences. He told me that, for some reason, he doesn't know exactly, the science hasn't figured it out, but vaping does not affect my disease, but cigarettes do. So I'm not a vaping enthusiast, I hope to use vaping to eventually get me off of nicotine completely, and to not have the need to vape either. I don't understand any of the thousands of terminology words involving vaping, I don't understand any of the slang words either. Please explain things to me in the simplest of terms regarding vaping. Thanks for reading my intro.
Ok, I bought an iCare Mini after my first product purchase off the internet (myJet) arrived in the mail and was defective and did not work at all. I went to a vape shop and the gal working there told me the iCare Mini was a good "starter kit" for someone who wants to quit cigarettes. She was hot, so of course I just mindlessly bought what she said. In addition to the iCare Mini she also sold me a bottle of juice that was "70/30" and 6mg nictotine. For the first week or two it was great, the flavor was strong (I choose Raspberry Lemonade as I wanted something different from the flavor of cigs I was smoking (Newport 100s), to deter me from going back to cigs). But after a few weeks, the flavor was almost non-existent. I changed the coil and everything, and the flavor is still weak as (Please do not evade the forum censors).
!. How often do I need to change the coil in my iCare?
The very limited instruction booklet that came with it didn't tell me. The lady at the store
said to change the coil about every two weeks, although that seems kind of excessive and
could result in a lot of dough being spent on coils.
2. Can I get the flavor back by changing juices or type of juice mixture (mine is 70/30)?
3. Is there any sort of cleaning regiment of the unit I need to do for better performance of the
unit?
This is probs the longest post ever, so I apologize for the wordiness, but I thought being as concise as possible would bring about the best advice. I sincerely thank all of you who took the time to read this, as this vaping stuff is essential to my life right now because of my health. All the best.
