Welcome! Tons of helpful people and a back log of useful information on here. Stick with it, vaping can be kinda frustrating at first!
Hello and welcome to the forum @Meredith84. Glad to have you here!
Check out this forum: SG Vapers. Make sure you read all the "stickies" as there are special rules you must follow when posting (in the SG forum) due to the sensitivity of vaping in SG.
You won't be able to ask where to buy hardware/juice in SG as your government monitors/reads ECF forum posts. It's all explained here => Newbies Q&A Thread. [PLEASE READ]

Thanks for the welcome everyone 
Have been smoking for 13 over years now.
Hope to switch over from cigs, afterall it's healthier and seems more fun heh.
Thanks Susan for the tip. Will be looking through the forum stickies for the dos and don'ts

Hey guys,
Just to ask your opinions, I did a little reading around the forums and regarding the nicotine level for the juices, say if I smoke approximately 20 sticks a day, would 18mg or 12mg be a better start?

Hi Meredith84,
It all depends on your preference. I personally did not care for 12mg (given that a standard pack of 20s would be ~12mg), as my intention was to quit smoking. I started with 6mg, and am still on it. Of course it's a little hard for us considering how difficult it is to get any liquids. But eventually if you wish to quit analogs, the idea is to set goals to step down from 6, to 3, and then hopefully to 0.
If you wish to completely substitute a cigarette with vaping, then maybe 12mg would be a good start. But that's my preference.
Welcome to ECF, I'm also a newbie and from SG. Glad to find someone from the same location!

Wow thanks for your advice!
I was thinking that it might be better to fully substitute a cigarette first and after getting used to only vaping without having to take an actual cig, then start to reduce the nicotine level

It really depends on user-preference, as goodvapes said. When I first gave vaping a whirl, my local head shop that also has some vaping products recommended that I start out at 18 to kick my pack and a half a day habit. I didn't personally like the 18, it felt way too scratchy on my throat and the next bottle I grabbed was a 12 not even 4 days later. Just having the 18 to vape on got me off the analogs because when I tried one 4 days after I got the 18, I couldn't get past the taste. Whatever works for you is what you should be vaping basically, and good luck on the vaping road 
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
Thanks for the general guideline for nicotine levels Susan! That's a big help for approximation!
