Hi Everyone!

[ash-an-air]

Hi!

I am finally getting around to introducing myself. I joined this forum in June, but haven't posted yet. I live in Houston and switched from regular cigarettes to e-cigarettes in June 2013. Seven months now! I have also helped my friends switch. I was the person my friends would bum cigarettes from when we would go out together. Once I got one, my friends who are social smokers decided to switch too!

I currently have a Joytech Ego C that I am pretty happy with, but I'm open to hearing about others. I'd also like to learn more about mixing my own e-liquid!

I look forward to becoming more active in this forum!

Cheers!

Sarah (ash-an-air)

Welcome! Congratulations on your choice and your success!
After a few more posts you can head over to the DIY forum and post away. Not sure, but you may be able to do it now.
DIY is a sure-fire way to save some money after you find what works for you. It is the learning curve that becomes costly.

Congrats on remaining smoke free. Have you tried a variable voltage battery? (ie, Ego C twist, iTaste vv v3, Innokin MVP, Vamvo v3, joyetech eVic, etop, Kamry, Volcano, and I'm sure there is a dozen more) I didn't think it would make any difference but it does. I have noticed more flavor and more vapor from my juices. As to making your own juices, I don't know much, I'm just starting myself, But I will tell you what I know. You have to get PG (Propylene Glycol), VG (Vegetable Glycerin) Either or both, its a personal preference, (look on your juice bottles and see which one you like the most) Nicotine and your concentrated flavorings. The rest is up to trial and error. There are some amazing web sites that have a recipe calculator, you tell it what ratio's of PG, VG and nicotine you want and it will break it down and give you the recipe in drops. My suggestion is make small batches at first, so you won't waste your product if it does not turn out the first time. And the best rule is Don't give up! Another suggestion is look at this forum there is tons of info on making juices. I hope this help some.

New member myself. Trying to gain as must knowledge as possible, so many things I'm anxious to try. Really enjoying how everyone is willing to share their own experiences. Hope to help educate others as I grow my own knowledge base.
