New VAPHEAD here!!!!

Hello everyone on ecf! My name is Craig, and yes I'm a VapOholic.. I have been vaping for about two months now. At first i was quite skeptical, it was a investment, but was it worth it?. The Mall wanted over $150 bucks. WTF! My boss put me on to vaping. He bought a new one and sold me his old one. I love it. Everything about it. The taste, the smell, the Vaper! No more second hand smoke, I have a little one at almost 11 months and another one on the way. So no more guilt! Saving a bunch of money which is a huge plus. Is there any down side that im not aware of?

Welcome Craig!! You will enjoy your time here and learn an awful lot. So many helpful people.

I haven't found a downside to vaping since March, just helpful benefits ...... like being able to breath deeply and take longer swims, no more sinus problems or bronchitis and not having to go outside anymore. Hubby is happy, too.

You made a smart move for your little ones. Congrats and keep up the happy !!!

Welcome, Craig. You've already avoided the big trap... spending way too much for your first (usually crappy) kit. Good for you! What PV and juices are you using?

There are a few possible down sides to vaping:

1. Having what appears to be a .... lab set up in your kitchen/bathroom. (common among DIY juice mixers)

2. Modumust Fever (see Dr. Gummi for treatment) is common among vapers with a predisposition to create/modify existing technology and/or MacGuyverize every simple electronic device into a vaping mod. Common indicators include burnt fingertips, an overwhelming urge to purchase small battery powered devices just to see if you can mod them, and a new found interest in electrical engineering.

3. The ever increasing need to check out the latest and greatest. This is by far the most common side effect of vaping, and is the reason why many vapers have between 2-15 PV's gathering dust in a shelf some where.

Thank you! This community is awesome. The fiance is very happy too! No more kissing a ashtray as she puts it

I bought a few different liquids. Like apple Pie. It was okay, but taste like big red instead of apple pie. Not even half way through that bottle. For the DIY, I dont want to put too much or too little nicotine.

I was doing 50 50. But i'm a bigger fan of 70-30 vg/pg. My all time favorite is RY4

Oh you'll go through lots of samples to start with, I'm easily 20 bottles in and that's just in my first couple weeks searching for my all day vape. As for the DIY stuff, there's a few apps out there to help you calculate dosages, but I'd consider finding a couple of juices you can use as all day vapes before you decide on the DIY route.

Also your tastes will change the longer you vape (up until now you were killing taste buds every time you light up) so don't be surprised if what you like now isn't what you like later. Equipment can really change how juices taste as well, I have a few that prefer a cooler vape so I don't use them with my 5v PT.

Welcome Craig.

Downside? Shadow102 nailed it in post #4.
Try to stay away from chasing the latest greatest and you'll save yourself lots of money and frustration.

I admit that all of these little bottles of different colored liquid strewn about my computer desk do look a little suspicious.
