Older Folks and Vaping

[Flowersoul]

What is everybody vaping today? For me: Peppermint in my carto tank with a Fusion of course, with a side of Captain (my tobacco flavor of the day) in a Vivi Nova, and Janet's Heaven aka Iffy's juice in a T2.

Life is good

I'm also vaping Ice with Peppermint and I had a pleasant surprise today. Am not a big fan of watermelon, but MFS sent me a free sample 12mg of W/M, and I was quite impressed, especially since I'm usually vaping 18mg. The t/h is spot on, and my dh loves the smell! I'm really happy that 12 mg agrees with me! Now I can cut my nic even more!

 

[FranC]

WOOT!! Flower.

Wow CharlieGirl - sounds like a great lineup there on your flavors. I can see you really have fun with creating. Mine are DIY too and I love being able to mix my own joose.

 

[Xcigs]

I started out on minis, screwing in Cartomizers. I really loved it, I tried to get with everything you can think of and nothing worked until I found e cigs. I smoke my first .little mini and never looked back. That was over a year ago, since then I have moved thru JTs egos the variables the to top end mods. I just wanted to quit smoking and I needed up with a hobby. As far as saving money, well, that went out the window experimenting. Trying different juice and equipment. I'm narrowing it down now.

Jewels!! My bottles arrived today!! I came back from food shopping and there was the box! I just ordered yesterday morning! Thy were only coming from NJ, but still, I didn't expect them until Monday at least.

Boy, once you put the tip in the bottle it's not going to come out unless you pry it off, but that's a good thing. I squeezed one of my other bottles once and the tip popped off and there was juice everywhere!

Ain't it fun Kat? I get the biggest kick out of playing "mad scientist" with mixing flavors that you wouldn't normally think of belonging together! I have a slew of little 5ml bottles just for that purpose. Sometimes though, when I'm not in the mood to drag everything out I will take out a tall condom (they need to rename those things!) from a carto and just drip some premade single flavors in of this and that, and shove a carto into it and test it out. When it starts getting low I will add another (hopefully) compatible flavor, and just keep it going all day, it's a fun challenge! Once in a while I will come up with a mix that is good enough to jot down and try actually making a batch of later. I have more flavors than I can keep track of! The problem is, I have lots of pure flavors I've never even tried because I tend to keep going back to the ones I like, over and over! I feel a marathon mixing session coming on of mixing individual flavors to combine later...that way I can use them individually or as a part of a mix. Only drawback there is all the bottles and fluids I will use! But hey, I got 'em, go for it! Not a hobby I would have foreseen, but one I sure enjoy! My husband thinks I'm overboard, but that's nothing new! LOL! I just need a separate ROOM to store all my stuff...my vaping stuff, craft and jewelry stuff, art stuff, sculpting stuff, sewing stuff...you get the idea! LOL! I'm chronic and don't do anything in a small way, but damn, I'm a happy camper!

I wish these things were around when I was younger, I have done a lot of damage to myself, I'm grateful to have found e cigs even at my age I feel much better. People say hey man your looking good, working out? It's the ecigs, I don't smoke.

That's one of the best presentations of that chart I've seen. Bookmarked.

My 'rule of thumb' was: watts = Ωs x 2 + 2

It'll put you somewhere in the 'green'. The higher the 'ohms' the higher in the green it'll put you. But should give you a starting point.

I've been vapin all day Janet's DIY creamcycle. It was her first attempt and it's pretty good. The orange is coming through fine, a little weak on the vanilla. I like it, but it''ll probably be a 'switch off' flav not an all day vape. For the last couple days, I've been vapin' Iffy pear pretty much constantly. And me a tobacco flav fan, haven't had any tobacco for a couple days now.

Oh my goodness, I just noticed a little personal milestone that is sure no big deal to some of you here, but it struck me as pretty awesome considering my slow start...I've avoided over ten thousand cigarettes! Ten thousand!!! Wow! That's a lot, right? Like, 500 packs? 50 cartons? Holy (non) smokes!!! Over a period of 200 days! I feel good! I think I will go DIY myself up something awesome to celebrate! Things sure change huh? Whoopee!!! And a thanks to all of you for your help and support, you are all the bestest!!! ((((((HUGS))))))

Super Charlie! Way to go!

I'm finishing off Heather's Gandalf and then breaking out the Heavenly Tobacco
to see how it fairs. Later today I'm going to make my first sample of juice, and
I'm thinking peanut butter might be good.

Now there's one I've wanted to try for a long time - just never got around to it. How would you describe its taste?

Thanks Mr. Mike!! ok plus 2 not minus. lol

 

[Xcigs]

And thank you guys so much for the good wishes and likes you have sent me. That's something no patch, gum, logenze ao Chantix could have given me. Thank you so much.

 

[Flowersoul]

It feels like my purple eVod will never get here. Tracking is taking forever to update this time but I am still hopeful it might get here today. Gracie did you get yours yet?

Kat, so sorry I didn't reply sooner! Yes, mine came today and they are beautiful! I had other nic stuff to open so I put them in my kit drawer for now. Am so anxious to try one, but I wanted to be in a relaxed frame of mind.......

I will try tomorrow and let you know.......maybe even later tonight.......if I do, I'll post!

Like a mild pipe tobacco, very earthy and I highly recommend it as it's perfect for winter.

My vaping line-up for today, all DIY of course, all loaded into T-2's: Cherry-vanilla clove; Koff Dripz (honey/licorice/menthol-like a Ludens cough drop); Downtown Brown (Caramel/butterscotch/toffee/cinnamon); Grape Ice (FE grape/menthol); Mya Papaya (papaya/sweetener/touch of menthol); Happy Snappy (ginger, champagne, lemon, ginseng).

10,000 cigarettes avoided is a BIG deal. CONGRATS on that milestone girl!!!!

Absolutely love the names of your juices!!

Have never tried a peanut butter juice. Let us know how you like it OC.

....I had a pleasant surprise today. ....I'm really happy that 12 mg agrees with me! Now I can cut my nic even more!

Discovering a new flavor AND that a lower nic is still satisfying. Sounds like a good day for you too!

 

[Kat56]

Gloria have you ever tried to DIY Churro. I had gotten the altcig Churro once quite a long time ago and liked it. I'd really like to be able to DIY that one.

What a variety of flavors just in the few answers so far. I've enjoyed so much hearing what everyone is vaping. Mike I was so surprised yours wasn't some type of tobacco flavor , and not for several days. As much as I love my peppermint, I don't have any days with no tobacco flavors...I just enjoy them sooooo much.

 

[Kat56]

CharlieGirl ~ wowzie hehe. Glad you have so much fun. I like "simple" ... i've never been a creative soul. But I really do enjoy being able to just go mix what I want and not have to pay $18 for 30 mls of joose hehe.

I'm getting to a point where I tend to vape all of a bottle of something before I move on to something else. I had gotten such a large collection of a little bit of this and a little bit of that, I started feeling a little overwhelmed I guess. It makes it kinda nice for me now because I do have a number of flavorings and by the time I repeat one that isn't a "regular" (which right now are Peppermint & Cohiba), I get to feel like I've got something new

Hello Xcigs - like your ECF name. eh we're never to old to learn new stuff - and what a benefit when the new stuff gets us off a bad habit. Welcome to the thread and I hope you hang around with us.

Ah - no wonder I couldn't find it on their site when I was looking for it tonight. My friend Google helped me find out they chnaged the name to Legend.

Paging Fran, Paging Fran,

This was posted on by Provape on FB tonight.

"Feb 6th More ZattyPro will be available. Starting at 12 noon PST"

 

[FranC]

I am here!!. Any instructions on rolling a mesh wick??

If you lean towards more exotic tobacco flavors it fits the bill. Good to know what they changed the name to, because
I'm bottomed out.

But a glass tank is calling also. Decisions decisions.
