help First time vaper here

[Ravikumar]

Hi guys im a guy who smokes shisha like 3 to 4 times a month(nvr smke analogs). Each session for like 3 hours. I love the fruity taste of smoke therefore bought an ecig to smoke with rather than use a hookah as its less harmful. Today was my 1st day vaping. I really coughed ALOT when exhaling. Im using the ego twist with clearomiser and Hangsen 11mg nico grape(taste quite bad for me haha) . Anyone experience this? Drank lots of water too.
And 1 more thing. The juice has this Peppery/spicy taste in my mouth. Is it due to the nic? I HATE this taste. Does 0% nic ejuice also have this? Please help..really want start enjoy vaping.
thanks

I don't understand why a non smoker would want to use a e-cigarette, don't get me wrong I'm not being sarcastic etc but I really don't understand. From what you said, you smoke hookah 3-4 times a month.. That's isn't so bad to consider an addiction for me, but with a ecig always by your side right now, will you unknowingly "smoke" more than what you used to... ?

Anyway you might want to down your nic level, for a non smoker I don't think you need high, best if you can do 0 nic

Shisha is found to be more damaging then cigs..especially since one session lasts for 3 hours..I don't think a shisha smoker is considered a 'non-smoker' cause the smoke still has tar tobacco and all the other toxins..and also I start to have craving for more and more sessions..so I rather vape then shisha it..anyways thanks for ur advice will try some 0nic juices out..any suggestions?

Still dont encourage u to switch to e-cigs as a replacement for hookah sessions. Anyway, u might want to try 0 nic.

Agree with Kimochi, you're not a smoker in the first place. Why go pick up vaping? Not pouring cold water on you, but most here who vapes wants to give up cigs for good and instead you actually are giving yourself a reason to vape more since u have it with u all the time.

Maybe you have plans to only vape it when you have shisha craving? Then again, i still do not know any of the shisha people being actually addicted to it. They are usually doing that mainly during social gatherings.
But the whole idea of having an ecig with you creates and give you ample opportunity to get hooked on something you should not have.

To answer your other questions.
Yes you need more water
You need to figure out power and resistance to get the most natural flavor for your juice

PS. sweets can give you sweet fruity taste too.

Yea.. But we'll even for 3 hours and once a week prob can't be as bad as a regular smoker. Understand your need to crave for me, might be a sign of addiction, I don't know I never shisha before.. Best now for you if you want to continue vaping, I suggest 0Nic since you just wanna enjoy the flavor/vapor once you are on regular nic intake... I doubt you'll stop

Thanks guys i wiil try 0nic ejuices. The flavour and thickness of the smoke is the one that im addicted to in shisha. I dont really think its the nic although i can be wrong. The hookah started off as a social thing but my close friend bought a hookah at home and we are getting more and more hooked on. Hopefully the e cig gives results close to that of a hookah. So i can take quick puffs whenever i have the cravings

So just to clarify the peppery/spicy taste is from the nic?

Try lowering the voltage, sounds like the juice is burning to me.

i tried at 3.2v and 4.8 both also still coughing

 

[Aaronpeh]

try take out the drip tip, and drop a few drop of liquid into the mesh and try again

BTW, I highly recommend to use 0mg juice, since U are non smoker. Nic is addictive.

 

[Reikoku]

I think it's probably the nicotine. I get that same kind of experience using nicotine gum.

Go with 6mg nicotine for a start, as it's about as light as it gets. 0mg nicotine, and you might as well not be on it. Hookahs are heavy stuff so, 6mg will be just nice.

On the contrary, you should encourage people to do so. As Hookah can do significant damage to the body as well. But hey, who am I to say that?

Mixing aint that difficult actually. On the other hand, maybe I am use to mixing chemical at work. So it seems easy for me.
