Nubee-Ordered my first starter kit last night

[RosieRags]

Hi! I decided to order my first e-cig last night, or I should say in the wee hours of the morning as I have bronchitis (again) and not sleeping due to constant coughing. After reading the many sites and reviews, I decided on ProSmoke. My question is, has anyone used both PG and VG? If so, what were the goods and bads of each as a comparison? I have been smoking analogs for 40 years, a pack to pack and a half for 34 of those years and so ready to do this if it will get me off analogs! Also, is ProSmoke considered a 510 or something else?

Thanks for all the wealth of info, though it has taken many reading hours to go through just the tip of the iceberg! LOL

I wish you would have come here before you ordered. Can You cancel? You can do so much better.

 

[RosieRags]

I don't know, I know I am able to return within 30 days for a refund, but not sure if I can stop the order process as the requisition has already been turned out to shipping. What is your recommendation if I can?

 

[AfterFX]

I'm new too, so I'm not the best person to answer this,but....From what I understand, PG has more flavor, less vapor. VG has more vapor less flavor. I'm using a 60pg/40vg right now.

Congrats on giving it a shot. WE CAN DO IT!!!

 

[RosieRags]

I didn't know it was possible to mix the two.....so much to learn! Thanks KeysBum and AfterFX!

Most juices are a blend of vg/pg

Vegetable glycerine really produces clouds of full vapor and can mute flavor a little
Propolyne Glycol makes a better delivery system for flavor and you can feel it in your throat when you inhale. It can be a little rough especially when you combine it with high nicotine juices.

Most commonly you juice will be mostly PG, with 20-30%VG added to give out a more sastisfying cloud

 

[KeysBum]

In your mind, does your PV have to be the same size as a cigarette, or are you open so something larger?

EDIT: small cigar for instance

 

[RosieRags]

Thanks Charlz. After reading about vapor and throat hit on different reviews, that was the reason I decided on ProSmoke. I didn't even realize there were mods and so many other options until I arrived here!

 

[RosieRags]

KeysBum, I am very open to something larger, the thing I am most concerned with is enjoyment and ease of use. If it's difficult and it tastes awful, I may not continue with it and I SO WANT TO!

I started about a month or 2 ago and I was on pure Pg for the first week or 2... I'm now using 20-30% vg... I haven't noticed a big drop n flavor but a good amount more vapor... Which for a long time smoker, it looks and feels much more satisfying... It's also a little bit thicker with some vg in it so if you get some exits that might leak a little, adding some vg will thicken it up and help

Hope that helps... Trust me, in the 3 months I hav been researching and the 2 months using ecigs, I have learned a TON!

Welcome to the family!

Great start, the little ones really don't deliver. How much $ are you comfortable spending to start. Trust me when I tell you we know where to get the best prices, but there is a huge range of stuff, so this will help

 

[pantera]

Since you are ok with bigger, maybe an ego style would work? It's what I use and I love it

 

[RosieRags]

Thank you all for the welcomes! Are you completely off the analogs pantera? At first I was thinking doing both, but after I visited the Dr and told her I was going to do this and she confirmed I have bronchitis again, I really want to get off the analogs totally!

Most likely where we are heading.... but maybe a mod?? See what she says.

 

[RosieRags]

KeysBum,
I am comfortable to begin with $100-$150.

Vegetable glycerin is commonly found in drug stores and health food stores in the health and beauty sections. Most here will tell you yo buy the health food store variety because even though the drug store variety is safe and passed for human consumption, it's origins are unknown.

A lot, like myself will keep some on hand in case we are finding that our juice has a little too much "throat hit" Or to simply lower the nicotine level of out juice. (or when we want to put out booming clouds of vapor )

Pg is a little more regulated and harder to find. It can be found on the internet if you know what to buy and from some specialty e-juice suppliers

 

[RosieRags]

Charlz,
I have no idea if the ProSmoke model even allows mixing ones own juice. I wish I had found this site before ordering, but I mainly went to review sites for e-cigs.

For that you can get some quality, easy to use gear.

KGO 1100 mAh 2 battery kit

This is an ego style PV that packs a good punch for a 1 - 1.5 PAD smoker. Get 2 kits if you can and you'll have backup batteries and charger.

2.0 ohm low resistance cartomizers

Get a couple 5 packs of these. I actually prefer Boge brand that you can get here/ free shipping

Crystal Clear Vaping

But for one stop you can do it at hoosiers.

Order several small bottles of different liquids. 24 mg. seems to be the right strength for most at first.

Yes I am off analogs! I tried one about a week after I started vaping and already tasted like licking an ashtray... Amazing that I "licked" an ashtray for 13 years lol! Since the day I started vaping, I had maybe 3 analogs total... I have taken a puff or 2 once in a while but just to remind me how terrible they taste... Funny thing: I still hang out in the smoke pit at work just cuz I like to socialize and it's sad/funny that I can actually smell the smoke on their clothes when we go back in.... I used to be that stinky person!

Go with ecigs and don't look back! Remember why you are doing this!

Also, I'm not the best to ask what type of ecig to use as I only have 1 type (the ego) I would suggest if you go with the ego, don't get the ego-t, it leaked and was very frustrating... Get the ego and cartos... Otherwise, many people suggest going with a mod which is like a box with the battery and a bottle of juice built in... Apparently these are greAt but they were a little expensive for me at the time I bought mine.

Also, cartos are cheap and replaceable...

You came to the right place to learn lol

Have fun!

If that's the case I would go with
Tornado Tank E-NIC Kit As the device and this for your cartomizers
Crystal Clear Vaping

And look at ordering your JUICE from vaporzone out of Sc... VaporSearchUSA


I'm new as well and all three of those places have been the best to deal with.... And I'd call vapor zone and ask for Leah Creel. She can help alot with juice she's AWSOME...
