Thanks a lot :).

The addictiveness already kicks in.
I started with a Sigelei Vmax Z5 and 2x Aspire Nautilus. At the end of the first week I already ordered a Kayfun Lite Plus V2, and yesterday a Magma + Nemesis.
+ a lot of wicking accessories
+ bases and a lot of flavors (this will take the longest time to find some proper all-day ones, i guess)

Welcome DrJam. Amazing how things have changed in a few years. I dabbled with the disposable ecigs way back and the ones I tried were really lacking. Three weeks ago I discovered a new vape store in town and stopped in. Wow! I now have a couple of Evod's and (thanks to this forum) an MVP with two clearomizers and 6 liquids.

Same for me and it was no real subsitute for me at that time. That's why it didn't last long and I was back to smoking.
But now you have so many different factors to influence your own vaping experience (hardware + custom mixed liquids) that it's just a pleasure to experiment.

Welcome to ECF!

Here's one piece of advice I wish I had gotten earlier:

Before trying lots of different juices, pay attention to the head and wick first. A lot of people get frustrated trying many different flavors and vendors, and finding that everything tastes either meh or bad. I discovered that getting the right head/coil/wick can make a tremendous difference in the flavor of all (or nearly all) e-liquids.

It does mean you need to learn to re-wick (and perhaps re-coil) early in your journey, since IMHO there aren't any standard heads with really good wicks, and it can take a bit of learning to get these to work right (It isn't that hard, but it's nowhere as easy as it looks in the U-tube videos!) I'd recommend rayon or at least cotton wicks.

Having a head that really shows off the flavors can avoid a lot of needless expense and frustration going through liquids. I went from liking maybe 10% of the ones I have, to liking nearly all of them. (Still a couple of clunkers in the bunch though...)

Welcome to the best vape forum! Congrats on quitting. One of the cool things is trying different flavors while still getting the nicotine you need to keep the urge away! I was a menthol smoker for a long time so I am partial to the taste and love the chocolate mint flavors! It's fun and gotta be healthier than smoking. Best of luck!
