Quit smoking, turning to this

[lucryj]

Hello guys!

I quit smoking awhile back but the urges have never gone away.. I did some researching and found out about these ecigs..

Through a friend i managed to order an ecig from a supplier but i dont know the model yet(will edit once i know).


Anyway, he gave me a site to buy juice from but i'm confused... It says 0.6%, 1.2% or 1.8% of nicotine.

Why is it different from other places where they put real measurements?

Some places sell it by 6mg, 12mg, 18mg etc. meaning 6milligrams per millilitre etc. Other places sell 0.6%, 1.2%, 1.8% etc. these are a different way of stating the same amounts.

edit - 18mg (or 1.8%) seems to be a good middle-of-the-road starting point for average pack-per-day folks.

Oh i see.. Feel like such an idiot now haha.

Is there any noticeable difference between an ecig package i buy for 80 and lets say one that is more expensive?

Will i want to purchase another ecig cause it is better? or are they generally the same

Welcome, from what I understand, the percentage of nicotine such as 0.6% 1.2% 1.8% or 2.4% is roughly 6mg 12mg 18mg or 24mg of nicotine. of course the higher the number the higher the nicotine content. Someone else can chime in and correct me if I'm wrong.

Good luck and welcome aboard lucryj!!

They are "generally" the same although there are a multitude of varieties that may provide a different experience. Whatever works for you is what matters.

There is no need to spend a lot of money on vaping in order to give up smoking so don't feel that you're missing out on something if someone posts a glowing review of the latest gizmo.

Vaping has turned into a hobby for me and I've begun to amass a collection of gizmos but if I lost my job tomorrow I'd be perfectly content with the gear I initially purchased (well...maybe not perfectly content...but close enough).

And if you do decide to try out variable voltage or mechanicals and dripping or some of the genesis atomizers there are plenty of inexpensive items out there. No need to spend hundreds of dollars (or pounds) on a mod (unless you want to, of course).

I'm not sure if i can trust the supplier that i'm ordering from though.. He refuses to give any information on the e cigarette that i want to purchase( not even the model or make of it)

All my senses are screaming no. I'm afraid i'll get scammed or harm my health. What makes things worse is I live in singapore just having one of them is already an offence.

Can you find another supplier? I wouldn't purchase from anyone that wouldn't tell me what I was buying!

 

[lucryj]

I'm desperately trying to find one right now! Hope I can find one soon, dont want all that time spent away from normal cigarettes to be wasted.

Edit: Getting some advice from you guys was the main reason i made this account! Wasn't feeling very comfortable with the lack of information provided by the supplier..

If you quit a while ago, just start with the 6 level of nicotine. Should be perfect for you!

I agree with this. Good luck finding another supplier and let us know how it goes!

As a pack-per-day'er, I thoroughly enjoy 30mg. Takes a while to get the dizzies and I feel like it's closer to the effect of a real smoke..
Might try 36 soon. (think I read somewhere to never go above 50 though )
