So my hubby, mother and myself have all had our PV's for about two weeks now. It's interesting how things have been between the three of us.
My mother- she is off analogs 100% the day after vaping and she loves it. She has ordered different flavors and has gotten the hang of it with no major problems at all. 18mg nico seems to suit her just fine and she is gonna get the 12mg cause she thinks she is ready to go down a knotch already. Yahoo; good for her!
My hubby- Well..not really taking it serious and finds just about every excuse to do both, analogs and some vaping until 2 days ago when I jumped on him and told him to take it erious and stop smoking analogs. LOL...it worked and he has been analog free for 2 days but needs a nicotine increase from 18 to 24mg. Just ordered a new batch at a high nico dose. He likes the menthol flavors and so far has tried three different one's and likes them all.
Me- Well...I'm in between my mom and my husband. Have been vaping but the first week I was getting rashes on my arms and coughing really bad when I inhaled. After reading about the allergic reactions people can get from PG, I assumed maybe I'm just not taking to the PG very well so I was bouncing between analogs and vaping. More vaping than analogs but still was smoking. I learned how to use the juice, opening my flavor options and PG/VG ratio options and have gone to a 70PG/30VG juice. Now the problem is finding juices I like. So far I have only one juice I like which is from BWB; Applewood. I've tried three others and yuck..gag me! Taste like soap. Not from BWB, from gourmet vapor but hubby's menthol tastes just fine and he tasted mine, he didn't taste soap, so I know it's just my wacky taste buds. I've had a few sample carto's come in from V4L, one pepermint and one pineapple, both of which I liked a lot. I like the applewood from BWB, it's the apple in it...So i think I like food flavors as to tabacco and coffee flavors! Learning curves! The change to 70-30 has helped with harshness on the throat and rashes too. No analog for 2 days but did up my nicotine to 24mg along with hubby's on the order I just placed.
I cleaned carto's for the first time. That was easy as can be, actually refilling them now. I soaked then for a few minutes in really hot tap water, blew through it, soaked it, blew, ect about 4 times. Put them on a cookie sheet, stuck in oven on 175 for about an hour to dry and now refilling and they work great! Holds about 25 drops! Find it easier to wait until I have a bunch to clean and do it as a batch.
No real complaints as three newbies to this vaping world we are now apart of! Check back in a few weeks to see how our 1 month of vaping has gone! Thanx everyone for all the help and advise!
