Introduction of a new vaper!

[Nixsdaddy]

Hello everyone,

I have been lurking here for about a month, gathering all sorts of information behind the scenes about vaping. Well 2 weeks ago I became the proud owner of my first e-cig (a Blu). And that was the last time I had an analog. I was a pack a day smoker for about 21 years.

It seems for some reason that utilizing water vapor as the delivery method for nicotine, is quite more efficient than anything else. I got back my smell and taste in about 2 days, coughing is almost gone, no smell of analogs (which stink now), all around a better deal for me.

But no matter what kind I use, I am a believer now. And I will never go back.

Welcome to ECF! I'm pretty new to vaping too. Tons of info on this forum so take some time and look around.

Just an FYI - It's not actually water vapor, it's propylene glycol or veggie glycol's that produce the "smoke" and carry the nicotine or flavor.

Thanks to all for the warm welcome here. And thx BadThad for that correction.

Here's a question though, why is it on some of the pre-filled flavor carts produce more vapor than others? I had one in today (java jolt) and it was ok on the vapor production, but I put in a classic tobacco and vapor production with the same atty was about 25% more. Is there that much difference in PG levels of various carts?

Welcome Nixsdaddy! I am in Grover, NC - just around the bend from you! Great to have you here! You will become addicted as I have to the ECF - I spend hours every day reading and watching videos and learn something new all of the time!

The people here are so nice and always willing to help you out - all you have to do is ask!

As for the vapor production in my limited experience (been vaping about 6 weeks) I have found that vapor can be affected by not only the VG/PG, but by the TYPE of carts you use and the type of PV you are using.

Most people on here will tell you to fill your own as most prefilled carts and cartos leave a lot to be desired, however I have ran across a few that I do like!

Congrats on your 2 weeks smoke-free! Glad to meet a neighbor on here!

 

[Nixsdaddy]

Very nice to meet you, neighbor! And you are so right... just around the bend. I have been trying all the different flavors Blu puts out since they give you 25 flavor carts with the starter kit to figure out what you like best. So far I am loving the classic tobacco, vanilla, and menthol. But I am not a fan of cherry. But I should of guessed that one since I dislike cherry in everything else. lol
