There is so much info here. I don't know where to start. I guess Ill start at why I came here. I been smoking since I was 12.I have quit 3 times. Each time after an illness. Each time unsuccessfully. The longest was about 4 weeks. Cold turkey. The last 6 months or so , smoking has kind of lost its luster so to say. I was tired of being a slave to it. I knew it but continued. My sister has been off cigs about 1 year now. She vapes. It got me thinking if she could do it maybe I could also. So the thought was in my mind. I visited a new vape shop down the street, for some questions ya know.I came home and did some thinking about it.I watched videos on you tube. I was smoking 3 packs a day easy. I was always out buying cigs.I knew I had to do something. I talked to my fiancé and we both went and visited the shop together. That was June 12th.The first few days I still smoked a few cigs here and there. I even bought a pack. since Tuesday June 17th .I have not had a cig. But boy have I had problems with my equipment. I'm using a kangertech evodd.with a I clear 16 .When its fresh its great. But juice in my mouth , not so great, leaking , not so great, dark e juice, not so great. We went back to the store bought more wicks and a few extra tanks. I don't know what's normal for juice usage , but mine is going quick. Its better than cigs I can tell already. I was searching on how to write a blog on here, cant find it. Any help would be great. Sorry if I repeated like I said I don't know where to start.:unsure:

hi mo1159,

1. congrats on your first 5 days.

2. to do a blog, click on your name at the very top of the page.
left side there is a list of stuff.
one should say View Blog entries, click on this
then on right side of page you can "post new blog"

3. when you say you are using juice "quick" - how quick?
some people don't vape more than 1 mL a day, some vape 5mL, pretty sure others even more than that.
(i vape about 3mL a day of 12 to 15mg nicotine juice)
Go at YOUR pace - whatever necessary to stay off the stinkies.

Sure more can chime in.
Be Healthy / Happy Vaping

I don't know about that tank but my first tank was the Innokin Iclear XI. The replacement heads were pure trash - didn't even last one day. So I started rebuilding the heads with 1 coil in the slot farthest away from the rubber grommet. It was just too much trouble taking it completely apart to clean the coil. I bought a Kayfun lite clone and regretted it. It wouldn't fire on my Zmax and the 510 center pin isn't adjustable. So I bought an authentic Russian 91% and I've been happy ever since.

Welcome! There is a ton of information here and lots of great folks willing to help. I have not used the I-Clears so I can not help you there but somebody will be along soon that might have some ideas.
I use Kanger tanks (EVOD, ProTank2 Mini, ProTank2 and Aero) and have not had issues...

Good luck and hope you find some answers.

I didn't like the clearos either. I started with an Innokin ego type battery and CE4's I think. The Innokin died after about 3 weeks, bought a Kanger EVOD battery and these tanks:

Kanger EVOD Changeable BCC Bottom Coil Clearomizer [KNGREVDCLR] - $6.99 :

with these coils:

I'm very happy with that set up for public use. For home, I bought an MVP 2 with Smok Tech Pyrex Aro tanks, which are glass, so I can vape the type of juices that would crack a plastic tank like I mentioned above. I can't see myself ever needing anything else.

The EVOD battery, tanks and coils were purchased from goodejuice.com, I got them in 2 days. Your local vape store may have them too.

Congrats on quitting, we were all in your shoes once. We did it, so can you. Just ask for help.
