Quit smoking on vape, love vaping now a new leaf in life indeed!

[RottweilerluvNZ]

New to vaping, but now 2 months off the cigarettes and no intention on looking back. The most exciting thing these days is going to the vape shop for new juices!!!

Hope to get some great advice from here, I've got an smok Alien as part of my arsenal, and admittedly out of the 5 devices I have this one is doing my head in re settings. I've watched every youtube vid and read everything but I can't figure out what the best or safest settings are.

I'm doing both MTL on Gold & Strawberry/Chocolate, now down to 3mg Nic from 12 when I started, and also DLI with my favorites being Blueberry, Watermelon/Coconut Slushy (both no nic) but I am DLI also with Lemon/Lime at 3mg.

Worked for me, and I know of a couple of other dudes that have quit/switched to vape.

I'm really interested to keep up to date with vape info given it's remarkable & better difference to cigarettes. Absolutely loving it, not only tastes awesome, but a lot of fun too it's just awesome all together imo.

Cheers!.

Welcome @RottweilerluvNZ

Congrats on your success! Since I never see another vaper in the town I live in, my monthly trip to my vape shop is my only vape therapy. My wife refers to them as her "geriatric babysitters" while she shops.

As far as "best or safest settings" on your Alien, using quality top rated 20A batteries and staying at or below 120 watts are probably the two safest things you can do. "Best settings" are a lot tougher to suggest. So much depends on what atomizer you are using, which coil, juice of choice, and individual preference of desired vape. Start out by setting the watts at the lower end of what the coil suggests and slowly work your way up until you like the results. Play around with it if you like and go with what works for you. The only right way is your way.

Thank you everyone! really enjoying the vape being such a heavy Camel smoker (30 - 40 a day!) this is a completely new life I am sure. Looking forward to getting involved here, thanks and thank you for the advice already!

Hello and welcome to ECF. I'm not familiar with your setup but i'm sure that someone will come along with specifics about it. One thing I can say is that the best setting are subjective to what you want and only you can answer that question. My recommendation would be to start low watts and slowly move up until you find what you like. Congrats on quitting the cigs.

Welcome to ecf and congrats on quitting smoking! To be perfectly honest being an active part of this forum is the backbone of my vaping success. I've learned so much and made some great friends!

Congratulations! I quit smoking in November of 2009 and haven't looked back. I never could have done it without the advice and support that I received here. The equipment and supplies are MUCH better now then they were then.

Welcome and Congrats for 2 months being smoke free! I just passed 1 month (Friday the day I broke the tank to the Baby Beast) and my first mod was the Smok Alien. It is not a MTL device but I can dial close up the tank to where it ALMOST is.

Until I learned to use a low 3mg ejuice at a low(cool) watt I was choking and coughing. I had to go back to 33-35 watts and use a 3 mg juice instead of 6mg.

I am just now getting into MTL setups and tanks since I had to rush to order baby beast tank glass over the weekend as well.

I don't know a lot about much of anything except it when juice tastes good lol. Good luck and don't forget to just google the videos on your device and watch them. Every time I am stuck that's what I do and if that doesn't help I come here. These are great folks and will help any time you need it!
