New vapers' help

[sotricky]

So clearly I know better now; but getting into vaping about two weeks ago I did the usual--bought a protank mini 3 and an ego with some juice, had gurgling and leaking problems and returned my mini 3 for an iClear x.1 (for about 8 bucks on top). Had some gurgling problems with that. It wasn't until a lot of research that I realized--oh, I'm trying to smoke this like a cigarette (also, the eGo doesn't really put out enough power for these coils--that's my next upgrade). Now I've corrected this and am enjoying vaping tons...

This is extremely important information for new guys like me who are transitioning from cigarettes/cigars to e-cig... So how can we inform users of this so that they don't deal with these silly frustrations.

I spent hours digging at my kranger trying to reduce the leaking when I probably could have corrected my technique and had a far better vaping experience. How could I/we help to lessen people having experiences like mine?

Good luck with that. I have been explaining to new Vapers for two years and most just don't listen. they prefer to keep buying different devices, blaming the device for being crap and buying more.
People do not like admitting they haven't clue.

You have just began your vaping journey, you will learn a few different ways to inhale along the way. Mouth hit, mouth to lung hit and lung hit. With different air controls and draw techniques.

I found them pretty helpful when I was first starting out.

Steer them to You Tube and here to ECF, encourage then to view Vidios and Read, read, read. Ask questions and do the hands on teaching when your with them. "Watch one, Do one, Teach one. works like a charm.
