Hey all! Another new kid on the block

[Trayspace]

Hi all! I'm Tray and glad to be here on this forum. I've been lurking ‍‍a little bit and everyone just seems to be just so friendly and helpful that I finally got myself on here. would like to make some friends and also learn more about the whole thing.
I've been vaping MTL for @ 2 months and thrilled with the transition over from smoking cigarettes for 40 years. Was smoking @1 pack a day and in @ a month or so am now not smoking any cigs at all! Wasn' too hard in fact and happy about it. I'm currently using an Aspire K4 and ok with it except for the battery life. Feels like I'm always having to charge it every couple of hours and I'm already looking into moving up to another mod. Yes, I know I'm new to this but I'm hoping to learn much more and hopefully find the right set up.
Also, what are your thoughts on monthly samples? Worth it? Waste of money? Which companies are good to use? I know, cant propose one in particular but there's so many! Lol
Thanks for the time

Hi and welcome! Great to hear you're doing so well. There are lots of good affordable choices for mods that will fit your needs. As to sample packs, sure they're useful to get an idea of what you do and do not like. I would avoid any of those autoship monthly deals. You'll end up with more you dislike than like, and truthfully after the first sample box you'll know if you like the general way a vendor's juices taste and whether or not you like them.

Im with Eskie on this, subscription are useless as i know what kind of flavors i want and when i want them.

I never buy online either as i have a very good relationship with my local vape shop and they provide exactly what i want.

Welcome to ECF, Trayspace.

I bought one for a Christmas gift for my sister once. She claimed to have liked it. She vaped MTL though so it effectively provided all the juice she needed. Kind of useless for long term vapers

Back when liquids did go through customs I loved Zamplebox. Vaped things I would have never chosen. Depends on the person, I always tend to choose the same things and that gave me choice, but as always YMMV

Congratulations on giving up smoking tobacco.

Welcome and congratulations! Rather than a subscription many juice vendors offer sample packs where you get to choose what sounds good to you.

Welcome Tray, hope you enjoy your stay. I'm in a similar boat to you trying to work out what liquid manufacturers I like. Loads out there though!

Welcome aboard Tray. Ohmsvapes.com and VapeWild.com are really good for sample packs. Ohmsvapes juices are really reasonably priced and they run specials from time to time.

Hi. Thanks for the advice. I'll definitely avoid the auto monthly deals! Don't need a pile of bottles not going to use. Lol
