Checking in to say hi.
Little about myself, I am pathetically addictive and impatient to about everything from smoking to web forums to working. When I turned 18 and had to get a "real" job I turned to cigarettes to replace what I smoked all thru high school. I have been a CDL driver ever since , I have not returned to my high school ways but even thru several attempts I have never kicked cigarettes.
This brings me to last week. My boss says no more smoking in our trucks and gave all the smokers a starter BLU pack. I knew by lunch that this was not going to cut it so I started searching the web for help and landed on this forum.
After an hour if reading (remember I am pathetically impatient) I ordered the twist viva mini combo starter from virgin vapor. To my dismay they did not have an overnight shipping option. So that left for work yesterday with those crappy BLUs and two packs of camel lights.
While at work I learned there was a kiosk in the mall that sells nic oil. I figured if they have oil they gotta have something to vaporize the oil so at lunch I went there to see. (Remember pathetically impatient)
They only had two different choices a MVP and a intaste CV v3. I decided to grab the v3 to use while I wait on snail mail (pathetically impatient) and have not smoked a cigarette since (all of 24 hours now).
So to sum up, I am brand new and loving it. I own an Itaste v3 and have a twist mini nova starter kit on the way. The blus went to the garbage and the half pack of cigs is shortly to follow. I am enjoying the new adventure and that is probably helping stop the analogs. I am open to oil supplier suggestions and also need to know what the thing that holds the oil for the v3 is called so I can order a spare with some new oil.
PS any help with the plethora of acronyms used on this site would be helpful, so many threads lose me fast cause I don't know what all the acronyms mean.

Congrats on your switch man I know its a fun world to get into. as far as acronyms I'm pretty sure theres a post somewhere with all of them but common ones are VV(Variable Voltage), VW(Variable Wattage), PaD(Pack a Day), nic(nicotine) and a bunch of measurements and the like.

The best suggestion I have for most new e-cig users is order as many samplers form different sites as you can afford. Mt. Baker Vapor is a popular starter due to their ridiculously inexpensive juice and theres some high end juices that have some samplers as well like Alice in Vapeland. I would suggest you look at the E-Liquid review board, a lot of good reviews of good flavors. ALso, track down some Boba's Bounty from Alien Visions you will love yourself for it.

Very nice! FYI, the iclear 16 is a top coil clearomizer, and it is ego threaded (uses the threads on the outside of the device instead of inside the connector, which are the 510 threads). Every few tanks or when you notice flavor degrading, you will want to remove the little silicone cap inside the clearomizer, rinse the wicks and coils off, and blot the whole thing VERY dry with paper towels before refilling. This will extend the life of your coil and reduce the number of replacements you have to use.
