Hi all. I haven't posted in a few weeks.
I'll start by saying that I don't go anywhere without my BB - ANYWHERE! I love this thing! When I first started vaping I wanted a strictly menthol juice because I was a menthol smoker and then I started sampling other flavours for the novelty of it and I now have several dozen small bottles ranging from 5-15ml of various flavours. No matter what I always go back to my Halo Menthol Ice. That stuff is my personal favorite and it's all gone now! Alas, since I have so many other bottles of juices I really feel I need to vape them before ordering anymore Halo.
So I looked through my cache and found some Menthol E-Liquid from MyPVShop.com and it has now become my all-day vape. It doesn't have the same complexities as Halo Menthol Ice but it is a terrific menthol liquid and I have no problems vaping the rest of it before digging back into my cache for another menthol-esque flavor or just making my own with some unflavoured juice and some menthol crystals.
I have also been vaping the Lung Juice from NHaler and like it very much too. I added a few menthol crystals to it to give it a cooler throat hit and pull and it puts out amazing vapor as well.
I started with 24mg juice for the first month (it took me a month to go through a 30 ml bottle of Halo Menthol ice while occasionally sampling other flavors). When the menthol ice was done I grabbed the Lung Juice and Menthol juice and they are both 12mg. I haven't noticed any side effects or withdrawals with vaping the lower mg. I plan on vaping these until gone and then making my own menthol juice with some unflavoured nic juice that I will cut down to a very low mg... vape it... then go to zero mg and vape. Slowly weening myself off the nicotine. The great thing is that if I ever have the urge to smoke again I can always pick up my trusty ol' BB and have a drag.
I also want to say that I have gained about 15 lbs since I quit smoking. Vaping doesn't suppress my appetitie like cigarettes did. But I can also exercise now without being out of breath.
The questions I have are regarding cleaning my atomizers. Cartridges I simply soak in hot soapy water, rinse, let dry, and replace with new foam filler.
Atomizers are a different ball game. I don't want to soak them in water. I've read everything from non-flavored juice, to vodka, to rubbing alcohol as an effective method. I want them to have a long shelf life so if anyone can advise me on how to clean them best It would be greatly appreciated.
Vodka sounds logical to me but not sure exactly what to do. Douse a Q-tip in vodka and carefully clean the atomizer? Drip vodka on the atomizer and let it burn off?
Thanks for reading and for any advise you have.
Happy Vaping!
P.S. I try to steer clear of vaping in public places because I don't like weird stares I get and the monotonous spiel I have to go through to explain it to people. But I do bring it to parties and such and some people simply ask and I tell them and nothing more is said so it makes me feel more comfortable. other people already know what it is and don't mind it at all.
