Hello,

I'd say the best bet is to not vape at all in your case. I would say the vast majority of us started vaping to quit smoking.. It may taste good but it's still addicting (nicotine) and if you are nicotine free you should stay that way.

Of course you could vape nic-free.. But I'd still stand by my original opinion.

Hello and welcome to the forum @dusked. Glad to have you here!:)

I agree with regards to not using nicotine. Learning can take a little time (and costs can add up having to buy coils/eliquid) if you are were never a smoker. That assumes you live in a place where vaping is legal.

However, if you live in a country that bans vaping (and you have to purchase on the black market) you face even more problems with regards to purchasing. That's where having a friend who vapes can help guide you regarding the laws in your country. And in the end, you may decide it's not worth all the trouble & expense.

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.
Here are a few more links from New Members Information <= Link covers many topics. Here are two of them:
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. Many juice vendors offer a range of different ratios as far as PG/VG.
