Hi all!

[SrKi]

My nickname is Srki and I'm from Croatia. I've been vaping for almost 2 years now and I'm member of ecf since late 2014. I've been lurking for quit some time

Just wanted to say hello and I hope that I will participate more in discussions.

Thank you for your time.

Glad you joined and started to post. You might want to tell us what equipment,nic level, juice favorites, etc. you are using/vape? Post separately and you will become a full member.

Thank you for your welcomes.

I started with ego twist + evod, after few weeks I used to recoil my evod heads (ty mr. riptrippers). After that I bought Nemesis clone + Trident clone, Kayfun, iStick 20w + Kanger Subtank mini and KBOX. My KBOX + Subtank mini was stolen at the bar, so right now I'm using Nemesis + Derringer combo (I hate, HATE battery sag) with only one Samsung 25R, so it is pain to charge it every few hours. Evic VT mini + Aromamizer are on the way, they are sitting at croatian customs.

I vape only DIY, only because of money. But my fav juice is Deadly Sin, but to expensive to import to Croatia (shipping + tax costs). I use TFA, Capella and MBV flavors. Right now I'm vaping 6mg.

Welcome to the forums!!!
I use my Derringer on a Caravella mod. I have a Nemesis, and love the general setup... except the locking ring. Derringer is a great dripper.

The Evic VT looks like a good product. Aromamizer looks interesting, but I'm not much into dripping.

Good luck, definitely feel free to post in the forums.

We DIY folks like to save cash and try new flavors. Subohm can get a little expensive. Juice seems to disappear a little faster.
Do you find that the Kanger KBOX MOD(8-40W) with the extra cost of two batteries plus charger have a cost advantage over two istick mods?
You could post a three more "thank you's" separately, in this thread, to get your full membership.

Well I charge my batteries in charger and swap them. I don't like idea of build in battery coz over time capacity will drop and I don't have soldering tool so I can't swap batteries in iStick. This way I always have one full battery ready.
KBOX was build like a tank and I think it would lasted me for long period of time, too bad I lost it.
That being said, new iStick TC 60w looks amazing.

In Croatia we don't have wide selection of juices and ones we have are expensive as hell. Shipping from USA and tax (25%) are too much for my liking, so I don't have a choice but to DIY.

I've never been fond of built in batteries either. It's a lot cheaper to replace a used up 18650 battery than to replace your whole mod when it stops holding a charge. Plus you don't need two mods so you always have one charging while you're using the other. Just swap the battery and keep vaping!

Welcome to the forum. It's always good to see more new faces.

I agree. Thing is that trends in vaping world are moving so fast, so there is a big chance that you will buy new mod before build in battery die.
But convenience of charging your battery in charger while you freely vape is must have for me.

Yes, I realized this when I bought one of the first batches of Istick 20's. I was looking for a good "to go" battery. I used an I-stick, and had it out "to go" when the battery got too low. That's when I realized that I don't like built in batteries. That's also why I got the Cloupor Mini. (good device, but it has "ramp up" problems).

What's the general feeling of people towards vaping in Croatia?

 

[SrKi]

I guess same as everywhere els. Ignorant people will be ignorant no metter where they live. My experience is that non smokers are more open minded towards vaping then smokers. I really like to talk about vaping (it is my main hobby), but I don't push people into discussion, but offten they drag me into one with remarks as "why are you sucking battery" or "robots dick". It gets boring after some time, so I avoid vape breaks when I'm working.
