What's up guys? New member here, but not new to vaping..
I've been vaping for quite a while now, bought my first eGo (it's a Happy eGo if I'm not mistaken) about a year ago and stocked up on Dekang juice. Unfortunately they never really quite replaced analogs for me -- something just didn't feel right, either it wasn't producing enough "smoke" or whatever. Up until now it was just something I did to pass the time (and it came in handy during winter), but whenever I'd get cravings I'd reach for my pack of smokes and went outside. After a year my atomizer is starting to give in, sometimes no vape will be produced and generally it feels "weaker."
I was buying a pack of smokes at a newstand yesterday when I saw Smoke NVs being advertised and sold. Asked the guy about it and it was like $25 for a starter kit. I didn't have luck with the cigarette-shaped e-cigs before as they ran out of battery relatively quickly, but there was something in it that made me want to risk it. Went ahead and purchased it and WOW.
The "smoke" is much thicker than I could get with my eGo. And unlike my previous eGo stick (one that was shaped like a cigarette), the battery lasted me all day instead of running out after 2 hours. After doing some research, the Smoke NV turns out to be KR808D-1 model (no idea what this really is) and it comes out of the box only about 30% charged, so I can only imagine how long it would last if it's actually fully charged.
Best part of all is that it's actually shaped like an analog and operates like one too, with no buttons to press to start vaping. I've killed an atomizer or two after accidentally holding down the button while the ecig's in my pocket.
Didn't like the Canadian flavor cartridge/cartomizer that the starter kit came with. Tried the Smoke NV menthol, and while it's better I'm still craving that throat hit. So I took an empty cartridge, filled it up with my Dekang Red USA mix (18mg) and BAM. So much better!!
I don't plan on quitting analogs completely but I'd seriously be happy if I could get down to 1-3 a day. For the first time since I started using ecigs I'm actually optimistic about the possibility of that happening.
So yes, thought I'd join this forum and participate in all the fun that is vaping.
Quick question: is it the nicotine in the liquid that causes the throat hit? I found that I can buy the Dekang mix I like from NorthernVapor.ca, but HappyVaper.com also sells a USA Mix except theirs doesn't have nicotine.
On another note.. Why can't I post anything on the Canada forum?
