Hello vapers!

I have been reading the site for a few days now and have got some great info from this, so thanks for that, and i thought it was about time I signed up.
A little about me, smoker for 30 years. rollies for the last 15. On a whim I got a machine last week an inokin Endura T18e (yes you dummy brits you can't have 2.5 mil tank that's against our stupid rules) I had about 6 rollies the first day, 2 the next 1 the next (and that tasted soo bad) and have been smoke free for about 3 days now. Loving the vape! I get itchy (not scratchy) for a roll up but im sticking to the vape, tonight is the first time I have had several beers and I would normally have been puffing my head off and feeling bad next day but i'm vaping and it is just the best.
I am on a very tight budget so i prob wont be getting a new machine for a long while and have put in an order for some juice from the one pound liQuid site. I can't wait for my vapemail. Ok i appear to be rambling.
Looking forward to joining in. Thanks for having me

Welcome @Gratch

The T18 is a popular device and should work out well, although now and again people report some issues with slow wicking and dry (ish) hits.
If your budget is tight, find a good place to order your atomisers (replacement coils) and your liquid, as you say.

I smoked for a long time, and made the switch from rollies too. It wasn't exactly easy, but I got there in the end. Good equipment helps... I started with bad equipment like so many who tried and gave up on vaping because of the junk sold in UK shop, especially the supermarkets.
The scene is a bit grim at times; the £1 e-liquid shop helps things although I've not shopped there now for a long time. Only yesterday I went to Wilkos (Wilkinsons) and there it was, sat there - the £4.99 liquid from a tobacco company (Vype) claiming it was the only liquid worth buying. Same with some other evil brands... £4.99 was the price in 2012. This is 2017. Even the 99p liquid from Homebargains is worth a shot.
Flavourart UK (them of the flavors sold to home DIY liquid makers) make some ready to go stuff... that is more like what people should be buying if they want to spend a few quid on something decent.
Ready To Vape Eliquid 10ml

I no longer buy hardware but atomizer coils and various accessories are easily got from Fasttech in China.

Good luck.

Hello Tonee N, vapdivvr, Mike McVape and djsvapour thanks for the welcome.
Many thanks for the info djsvapour the only worry i have about getting new coils is from reading forums etc it seems like there was a lot of bad T18e coils recently, i hear the problem is sorted but i am still worried i will buy a dud pack and loose some money.

I'm not generally a believer in bad coils, but oddly enough I had a box of Innokin iClear30S coils in 2013 that were all vile vaping with a nice melting plastic taste to them.
I got shot of that tank ASAP.
Since then... I honestly never had a bad coil. As rare as anything i.m.o.

I had a 5pk of Kanger EVOD coils that all were bad a long time ago. Never went back.
