Hello,
I'm supposed to introduce myself here - here we go....

My name is Michael, I am German, half a century old and live "deep in the west, where the sun is getting dusty".
I had my first vaping experience in September' 16.
After I had informed myself intensively about steaming as an alternative to smoking for more than 2 months, I found out that the topic is too complex to be learned by reading.
So I took money to smoke for 30 days, went to an offline shop and was disappointed:
Consulting, furnishing and selection were - retrospectively considered - underground. The recommended joyetech AIO Pro C was hardly explained and - according to my wish - put ready for use with intensive 6mg tobacco liquid on the counter. I paid the bill and tested DTL, and I had a coughing fit. I smoked the cotton instead of steaming liquid.
At home I then dismantled everything, cleaned it with vodka, screwed in a replacement evaporator moistened according to the instructions, let it stand for one hour and after 3 trains without fire I inhaled the first own clean charge - heavy, but OK.
Since I got to know in a review that the "old hand" suggested the matching 1 Ohm evaporator of a third device for beginners, I wanted to buy suitable heads and liquid in another offlineshop (same brand, different city) the next day. Here I was surprised:
Cleaned up, inviting, professional. While the first one seemed like a too small clubhouse of a lower class soccer club, I felt like I was in a shop here. The selection is professionally made out and the liquid shelf protected from customer access, the salesman/consultant could even do his job calmly when the customers are stacking up.
So I was able to look at the guy behind the counter as he tamed the tobacco monster and transformed it into a good-natured, vanilla and tobacco smelling baking steamer. Perfect for work.
A few weeks later I wanted to buy a second device for home with clearer flash. Since I had made the second shop to my favourite shop, I flew in there, described my wishes and was introduced to the eleaf iJust S. I had a lot of fun. The recommended liquid in and... coughing spell. But I immediately realized that this was just the unexpected amount of steam that made me wrestle for air. Thank you, everything done right....
Now, a year later, I have the witchcraft mixed with the self-mixing in the handle, wrap and pad.
now, a year later, i have unveiled the secrets of mixing, wrapping and padding and i am reliable doing it
I do MTL and DTL, but I only make really big clouds in my garden with failed liquids.
I am financially better off, although I ordered 10 litres of bunker base before the TPD2 came into force. In addition, I have bought about a dozen practical and three really nice boxes so far.
I have very rarely had to write entries in red in the smoker's daybook, but not for several months now.

I think that's it for now,
Michael

EDIT: I can read and understand English, speaking is good, but writing is difficult. I write mostly in german, let DeepL translate it and modify it on some points.

Hi Michael,

Welcome to ECF! I'm so glad vaping is working well for you, and it sounds like you've got a lot of skills with e-cigs under your belt. That's fantastic, and I agree with you that vaping becomes much less expensive once one starts DIY. I'm another with quite a bit of nic frozen in my freezer so you are for CERTAIN not the only one.

Hope you enjoy your stay here, and that you can fine tune your vaping experience even more, if you so desire! :)

Anna
