New member from Louisville, Ky USA some Suggestions please

[mikel1982]

Hello fellow vapers my name is Mike I am from Louisville, Ky & I just started vaping 3 days ago picked up my 1st starter kit from my local vape store Derb E. Cigs which is a great store & the staff are super friendly with quality products. My 1st starter kit consists of 2 ego ctwist 1000 mah batteries, 2 vivi nova slim (2ml) tank & clearomizer, 1 usb charger, 1 carrying case & to bottles of e liquid + a top off. I smoked about a pack a day I'm going on my 2nd day without smoking a cigarette. I have to say I am hooked on vaping I really love the hobby aspect of vaping, the community, plus the sheer variety of options & choices. I have already have a kanger protank 3 on pre order & getting some liquid from myfreedom smokes. If you have any suggestions to help a noob have the vape I can please post. I have did my share of reading & have the basics of vaping down but I would like to know things like what equiptment to try, eliquids, just anything to help this noob have the best vaping experience humanly possible.

Hi and welcome to ECF and congrats
Here's a Vendor search engine. Although more expensive most B&Ms will allow you to sample juices before you buy:
Electric Cigarette|Eliquid|Supplies|Electronic Cigarette|Ejuice|Smokeless|Vapor Search USA
Remember to drink lottsa water as vaping is extremely dehydrating. I drink 3 liters per day.
Enjoy your stay.

Grats on a fine start in vaping.

You'll get a fine vape with what you have already gear-wise. For many of us, vaping soon becomes a hobby, and we are forever on the lookout for better equipment and e-liquid flavors to try.

A "mod", or advanced personal vaporizer (APV) can provide more options in battery duration with replaceable rechargeable batteries in addition to more options with juice delivery attachments. Most of these have LED display screens, built-in ohm & voltage meters, with variable wattage in addition to variable voltage. Advancing from Cigalikes up to Egos & Mods

I have a total of twelve blog articles e-cigarette related which should expand your knowledge: Baditude's Blogs

You've got good starting hardware. You're beginning to try different juices. Ya' seem to have the basics covered so I'm having trouble coming up with a suggestion....

Ahhh... Got one... Avoid the driving on I-65 during rush hour. (Particularly if you're used to Indy traffic where even the garbage truck drivers think they are A.J. Foyt at the IMS when on any road that begins with "I")

 

[mikel1982]

no doubt dude, I have my immersed myself into vaping and to learn more about it.

Hi Mike..........Welcome to the forum and congrats!!!!

 

[Huckleberried]

Welcome. I'm in Louisville, too. I found a local guy that makes juices and they are the BOMB!! He'll ship to you, or you can pick them up from Cit-E-Cig on Lagrange, next to Joe's Older Than Dirt. His website is https://www.purevapes.com/. I've had a few of his on his site and have had 2 from his customizer. All of them awesome. Cit-E-Cig is small, but has a nice selection of gear and a large selection of flavors. They even carry some flavors of Pure Vapes, Mt. Baker and Madvapes.

Welcome, Mike. Louisville is a really nice place.

I'd recommend getting a second USB eGo charger for backup/spare, and a USB power adapter for your vehicle if you don't have one. Comes in handy in power outages, too.

Get on MFS's mailing list. They are my source of nic base too.

Can you provide references that vaping is "extremely dehydrating?

Can you provide references that vaping is "extremely dehydrating?

Tons, that's what it's used for in a number of applications.
Propylene glycol - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
And for an explaination of what hygroscopic means
Hygroscopy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

You can see it for yourself too.

Fire your vaporizer for a set period of time and note the vapor production.

Then fire it the same amount of time while inhaling and a quick exhale and note the vapor production.

That increase in vapor is due to the water being drawn out of the body which makes the vapor much more visible.

Thus it is very dehydrating and why many vets warn new vapers to make sure to increase water intake....or risk feeling like you have a hangover.

 

[mikel1982]

hmmm that explains, a lot but on another note I have been vaping a lot @ 18mg's I was going ordered some 12mg e liquid but think I should get 6mg cause I like to vape a lot I know i'm taking in more nicotine thank I did smoking.

You definitely have the right shop to go to in Louisville. Best liquid in town

Here's a suggestion:
MVP2 silver, will last 2 days on one charge

also: for your Kanger tanks, use genuine Kanger coils (no matter which tank it is)
