Hello

[Roland Reithinger]

Hello,
I'm new here. And I'm started vaping a couple of month ago. Think it was June/July. I gained bad experience with a lot of liquids and I am not really happy with my EVOD2, 600mA/h is not enouth and PMMA must not be more shatter-proof then Borsilikatglas. So I do both, smoking and vaping.

I am male coming from Germany. Beeing a sozial worker and long time ago I had a professional education as a electronic technician

Hi and welcome.

Hello and welcome to the forum @Roland Reithinger. Glad to have you here!

PMMA tanks will crack/melt when using cinnamon & citrus eliquid/juice.

If you are interested in learning more about e-cigarettes (and all the parts and pieces) below are some blog posts by ECF member @Baditude that I highly recommend for someone new to vaping.

• A Good Starter's Setup for a Beginning Vapor
• Advancing Up the Vaping Ladder with Egos and Mods
• Proper Terminology - Is it a carto, a tank, or what? A Guide to Juice Attachments
• Something Safe for Cinnamon and Citrus Flavors

Here are a few more links from New Members Information <= Link covers many topics. Here are two of them:

• The Three Main Types of Ecig
• Vaping Slang and Acronym

Nicotine

A "general guideline" for nicotine concentration in e-liquid to the number of cigarettes smoked per day. If you are subohming (resistance under 1.0Ω) cut these nicotine levels by at least 50%.

06 mg = 10 cigarettes or less
12 mg = 20 cigarettes
18 mg = 30 cigarettes
24 mg = 40 cigarettes

eLiquid/Juice

PG = Propylene Glycol - the "flavor carrier" of e-liquid. A secondary source of "throat hit", but not as strong as the nicotine concentration. Some people have a sensitivity or even an allergy to PG. It's very thin.

VG = Vegetable Glycerin - the "vapor maker" of e-liquid. Used as a sweeter in many food sources, and also as a skin emollient. It's very thick. Often labeled just "Glycerine"

PG and VG are often used together in different ratios in e-liquid. For example, a 50/50 PG/VG ratio. Some juice vendors offer a range of different ratios as far as PG/VG.

Hi @Roland Reithinger

There is a big community in Germany for Vaping. You can buy most of the best products there, but like all E.U. countries, Google will send you to the expensive brands and even the scam / betrug products.

I ran a search on Google.de and Yes... the top searches are rip off /Abzocke products.

Please ask more on here or your fellow German Vaping forums.

Vaporfi, Blu, Greesmoke, Kik - NEIN! Bitte nicht

Hi Susan,

thank you for your comprehensive note. It gives a lot of useful informations. I know I wrote about my problems with my starter set: broken plexiglas, small tank, small capacity batteries. But the main problem is the taste. Spent too much money in liquids which I could mix online. I good system if you are knowing what to do. Experience in cooking or cocktail mixing will not be helpful and many flavours taste very chemical.
My problem is that I am actually been ill and so I have less money but I hope that I can buy in January a better hardware. Meanwhile I started to mix liquids by myself, in my opinion the better way.

Best regards Roland
