Welcome aboard and good luck on your journey.
If it works for you what you are doing will be right - but plenty of information in this section.

Thanks, I have friends who are also quitting ahead of me. They are the ones who actually sent me the link and told me to join.
Hello and welcome to the forum @MGotham. Glad to have you here!
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.
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.

It was meeeeeeee (and my husband) lol! Welcome Gotham, glad to see you here, this place has been such a wonderful resource!!!
You'll be OK with that level of hardware. 10mg in the 'old' days was not a lot of Nicotine.
(not enough for most, not nearly enough).
Joyetech eGo ONE vapes at either 17 or 35 watts on a fresh battery. You'll soon get the hang of this stuff, even if it's a bit confusing at first.
17 watts, I'd use 6-8mg or even 10mg. At 35 watts... well, today I am vaping 1.5mg..... which is almost nothing.
Good luck
