Newbies Q&A

[slackersg]

Finally!
Started my journey yesterday and enjoying it with my 1st vapering kit: eGo T

Just got enlighten on the ratio of PG/VG and how it affect the vapour/flavor.
Now pardon me for asking more questions...

1. Understood the cartridge that comes with my set is replaceable but i can't seems to find any local supplier for it. Not even the replacement caps to stop the juice from flowing out of the cartridge. Anyone can recommend any common household caps that is easily available to "stopper" it so i can bring out couple of cartridges of different flavors to enjoy when i am out and about?

2. Seems like the cartridge tends to leak even when i leave it with the atomizer. Anyone have a tip or two to share on how to stop the leakage? Or do i need to look into those tank/cartomizer instead?

3. Have tried 3 flavor so far and only one give me more "satisfaction" in term of more vapour due to the ratio 50/50. However, i hope to achieve more denser vapour with minimum spending for now. Apart from going for another 50/50 juices, what is the next "cheapest" change i can do to my eGo T to give me more denser vapour? Will a clearomizer like CE4+ helps?

4. Unflavored juice. Anyone vapering on those? I presume it doesn't smell at all since it is unflavored? Looking at this to carry around in case i need to vape in the loo. Don't want to attract attention like: "Did i just smell watermelon? In the toilet?!?!?!" when i walk out of the cube after my business + vape... ^^

That's about all in my head now.
Looking forward to be enlighten again by the veterans here.

there's lots of clips in youtube.

Or be like me...first PV went straight for LT... heh not regretting so far

 

[Bunnyboy]

I wld say go get yourself a clearomizer. I started out with an ego t as well and it always leaks. Not very good. For awhile that made me went back to analogs until i found out about the ce4+.

Hope that helps.

Oh and dont worry about smell. The toilets usually smell crappy or spammed with air deoderants anyway. Then again the scent of the vapor only lingers for awhile and unless the person walked into your vapor or is sitting beside you. The rest wont smell a thing.

If you are getting the ce4+
try to get the v2 (with long wick), have been trying on 50/50 menthol, no leak problem.

1) sgjuices sells e tank cartridges tt you've mentioned.

2) if you have a carto condom cover use tt to cover e cartridge refill cap and place them in e carry case for out & about.

3) if the vapour tt you get differs btwn e 3 juices, there is a likelihood tt they weren't mixed at e same ratio.

4) noone vapes unflavoured juice because it's plain nicotine in pg or vg base and it tastes awful on it's own.

 

[mikamika]

I have someone asked me to mic juice without any flavorings.

 

[slackersg]

there's lots of clips in youtube.

Been checking out tons of reviews and tutorials online.

Or be like me...first PV went straight for LT... heh not regretting so far

lol. Wish i had that budget at that point of time. But never regret so far that i got the eGo T to kickstart my journey.
Now aiming at possibly a mechanic or vv mod but still cheaper than an LT. ^^
Want to stick to my target: quit analog to save my health and money.

I wld say go get yourself a clearomizer. I started out with an ego t as well and it always leaks. Not very good. For awhile that made me went back to analogs until i found out about the ce4+.

Thanks for the pointer. Now shifting my attention to a possible tank setup instead of clearomizer. Reason being: i do not wish to get stuck in a situation where i can't get stock to change the coil since it is dependant on it due to proprietary design. A carto i believe is more easily available. However, i might get one to try since one always say: never try never know.

If you are getting the ce4+

Noted! Thanks man for that tip.

1) sgjuices sells e tank cartridges tt you've mentioned.

2) if you have a carto condom cover use tt to cover e cartridge refill cap and place them in e carry case for out & about.

3) if the vapour tt you get differs btwn e 3 juices, there is a likelihood tt they weren't mixed at e same ratio.

4) noone vapes unflavoured juice because it's plain nicotine in pg or vg base and it tastes awful on it's own.

1. Thanks for the direction! Figure out i dump that cartridges setup and move to carto instead. Manage to try out carto with 2 friends help and now there is no turning back. Love the ease of use, no leak and better vapor production as compared to cartridges. Nonetheless, i will keep that in mind so in case i might need it in future, i know where to get locally.

2. After moving to carto, that's how i bring along 2-3 flavors with me. Loving carto and it's condom caps... ^^

3. Figured that out after trying another 2 more flavors. Guess i will be doing 50/50 for most if not all future juices.

4. lol. My friend told me the same thing. However, i was talking about zero nic unflavored juice. Guess it is still chao ta smell?

I have someone asked me to mic juice without any flavorings.

Serious? lol, guess i'm not the only one? ^^ With nic? And since you have mixed before, bet you have tried vaping it? How's the smell?

To end off, thank you all so much for dropping some advice here, throw a direction there for me... Awesome place to be!

 

[mikamika]

Haha, didn't try it! Yeah, I mean mix just with nic, no flavorings. ><!

lol.... noted! Guess the least i can go is with some mint/menthol flavor to ease the vapor inhaling else throat might not take it...

 

[ken77]

Actually No flavor ejuice still give the the same TH and feel just without the taste.
I personally find it close to M - lights.

Afternoon, really new to all of this.
Expecting to get my LV2 soonish along with a lot of kuti kuti for it...

Got a question thou:
Does anyone reduct the Nico levels over time???
ie: work to be Nicotine dependent free??? if yes... HOW?
if No... why arh?

Oh yeah... if got meet ups, please let me know... No public V-ing also fine...
Got a LOT of questions... like effect of ohms, DIY blending... Where to buy raw materials... etc...

Hi guys,

I'm a newbie to this forum and very interested in getting a PV.

I smoked for 20 years about a pack a day and quit cold turkey on Feb 27 this year because of my newborn daughter. However, the temptation of going back to analog cigs are still strong even after having quit for 8 months. I therefore wanted to see if vaping can help me resist smoking again.

I did try to get some Safe Cigs from the US but it got stopped at HSA - to say I was disappointed is a huge understatement as I was waiting almost a month for them.

I was about to give up but was searching online for more info (wanted to buy from Australia and have someone bring them back for me) but I stumbled on this forum.

I am starting to get excited about the possibility of vaping again as I had no idea there is a community of vapers here in Singapore!

I am really interested in getting a kit and spent the whole day (literally) reading the threads and the whole 51 pages of this newbies Q&A thread so I wouldn't ask stupid questions and piss anyone off...haha.

From what I gather, I had 'my eyes open' and visited the few links in the signatures as suggested by the veterans on this forum (r3kka, Trinitrophenol, sotong, Yunn85...etc).

So is it as simple as ordering directly from those links? There will be no problem getting a kit and juices? What's the diff between the 2 main sites (SGxxxxxx.com and vapersxxx.net) or ordering from either is ok? Or is there another 'process' that I have to go through? Everyone seems to be pointing to SGxxxxxx.com.

How about eu.Jantyxxxxx.com?
Any chance you can forward me the PMs? I know its been a while, but still want to try my luck...
Or, could someone help me with the same questions listed above???



Sorry for so many questions (and the long posts) but even after reading the whole day, I can't seem to find the above answers - everyone who asked about getting a kit always seemed to get a PM from someone!

I don't think I have enough posts to PM anyone so if any of the seniors/veterans can help, I will really appreciate it.

Looking forward to it and later guys!

Cheers,
TS

Wow!!! Exactly the same thing I was wondering...

 

[snooke_master]

The fact is,

This is like a secret underground community, everyone will be more than shy to give you direct answers... Please be patient, soon some pple will PM you...

 

[gman1975]

I'm truly shocked by the amount of info I have received..
The support here for vaping is great.. But the support for my efforts to quit analogs is AWESOME.

Thanks everyone.. Truly appreciate the support...

Well, yes, I for one, smoker for 20+ years, switched, and now vaping 0nic juices..

As I have to vape VG, and back then not so much seller doing pureVG, also do not know of this site then, ergo mixing my own juice, initial intend was to slowly reduce nic content, and yes I did, from 18mg to 6mg over just few months..

Then one fine day, accidently misplaced nicVG and pureVG, a batch of 300ml Bourbon Vanilla 0nic was made and vaped without me knowing..

Realized the mistake only when mixing the next batch, looking at both VG label, alamak! machiam sama sama leh..

Since then, 0nicVG all the way, for a while even went 0nic no flavour, tried that to know if I've just merely switched my poison rather than kicked the habit..

Now can don't vape actually, only vape at home, nothing in public, nothing at office, definitely don't think of it when I don't have one by me..

Resistance, Ohm and Voltage wise, very simple, basic understanding of ohm's law will do..

Equipment wise, stay around and you'll be surprised..

And for DIY, there's a forum just for that..

 

[gman1975]

The last few days have been a blur.
I am so blur that to stop smoking was so easy.... I have no cravings for analogs, but still think about them often.
Usually every morning when I wake I will look for the packs, but then see the PV, and remember...
There is also the slight level of panic when I realise I forgot my lighter... And my pockets are too empty...
Then I realise why again...

But more then that... I cant remember the last time I have been so free of Cigs and lighters!!! Woohoo...

4 days in: This is a realy life changer!!!

Thanks for all the help and info.. really appreciated!

I guess its the routine and habit we all obtained in our analog days. Haha. Me too. At the start felt uneasy when my lighter isnt in my pocket.

Good for you that you got off analogs!

Hi, I'm new to this forum. Not even sure if I'm right in posting here. But can anyone guide how do I get my first PV, without much risk compared to overseas shipment?
