what do you wish you did not do in beginning your vaping journey

[Kasmel]

Hi there everyone... I want to try and learn from others today! I am not exactly what you would call a noob but I am newish... any way got my first mod and all and am just wondering if there is any info on what you wish you would have done verses the path you took. like mistakes or wasted money on anything just things like that! Thanks guys!

Honestly? Research...

Here in Miami, the vaping "scene" is soooooo behind that I thought I was doing something new. Little did I know that Miami just sucked.

I wish I would have researched a bit before spending so much money.

I really wish I had not thrown away $64 on eight NJOYs a year ago ...

 

[Chelonian]

All of the Clearomizers...every single one, in particular the Kanger products. I thought they were all of that at the time, though.

When someone asks me now, I recommend tanked cartos to start, on at least an MVP.

i actually almost got one of those thankfully someone was there to put me on the right path...but I still bought these other type of disposable e-cigs b4 that...cant remember what they where called but they only hit right if I drew really really deep on them... but they put me one the better path that i am on now so be thankful for that!

I bought my second Protank II, just as I got my first RBA and never looked back.

And of course, I should have started sooner.

Getting a Vamo. Worst let down since Calvin and Hobbes stopped.

Let's go exploring!

Honestly, I wouldn't have wasted soooo much money on lesser quality mass produced PV's. I've learned the hard way to just buy quality. You save a lot more money if you just pay more up front.

Not a whole lot of time in, but i dont have really anything i wish i didnt do in my vaping journey, because i look at it as an experience, i do take others advice, but i like to experience things myself and come to my own conclusions ( not everyones the same ). my thoughts

This is what I was talking about! Great case in point! Been there, done that.

Buying stuff from a B&M and not realizing how much money I could save from sites like fasttech.

i like the idea of DIY and everything and the mixing the juice does not scare me... but I am scared to do a rba... cause I dont understand electricity and i dont want the thing to blow up in my face...

 

[Kasmel]

yea i just got a vamo and im not so sure its all its cracked up to be... any suggestions on something better maybe i can make a trade in or something...

 

[Kasmel]

i saw your post about the vamo being bad.. i actually just got it and dont know if it all its cracked up to be... and suggestions maybe i can make a trade or something

Nothing. You'll never know until you try them. I relied on positive reviews. Bottom line is they all work at first, several hours, days, then issues come up. You won't see anything perfect. It's the nature of the device. Whenever liquid is involved, expect to encounter issues. That's the way it is and that's the way it will be.

My pile of low end ...., ego batteries and tanks and crap. I wish I didn't buy any of it, honestly.
Stop telling noobs to buy this trash.
Dripper and a nice regulated mod is all they need. And don't give me this safety spiel neither. The mods are safer (most). A half hour on YouTube tutorials, about safety, and you can just skip the whole ego protank phase and get right to a proper vape. And if you don't have any disabilities, and can't learn to wrap a piece of wire around a drill bit..... Then hang your ... out to dry.
Stop telling people to buy crap that they won't want in a month.
Or even worse... they'll sit there and bull.... themselves, pretending that they're getting a good vape, off of a turd.

smh


Even if we're six feet under ground, I know that we'll be safe and sound.

Walking into a B&M during Nicotine withdrawal and paying nearly $80 for an ego starter kit. I understand the logistics of running a store front business. I don't mind walking in and paying an extra 10-15% for an item when I really need it ASAP. But I got screwed on my first deal.

Do your research and avoid impulse buys.

 

[Vaslovik]

The eGo stuff, and the Protank. Wish I'd not bothered with that crap at all. If I had it to do over I'd just get a mech and a genesis RBA. Another regret, paying $90 a week for juice when I could have made my own for a tiny fraction of that. It took me a whole five weeks to finally end up with a mech and RBA, and even longer to start making my own juice. At least I'm happy now and don't need anything from the B&M's.

Not getting a Provari sooner. I went through 2 70 dollar mods..."cough"Vamo"Cough" and the threads stripped in them withing a couple of months. The Provari threads are stainless steel so no worries there.

I don't regret any of the toppers I have tried...all the way from cartomizers to cartomizer tanks and various clearos....right now though I have discovered the Kayfun so no need to buy supplies every month now...Just get some wire and some cotton and Im set for the year...all for about 7 dollars! Plus I have learned to DIY my e liquid so thats about 10 bucks a month!

Hi Kasmel,
I wish I would have gone on line and done more research. I have learned so much since starting this journey three months ago. Most of it from u-tube videos.
I almost fell into a trap thinking this was how I could quite smoking but still smoke... LOL smoke I did, every chance I got, not realizing the thing I was missing was the everyday smoking I use to do, which can not be duplicated by any e-cig. Try holding a Kamry 101 between your lips while you do something. Now that I am more aware I am learning to use vapeing to assist the process.
It can help... it is surely better for me... but I still crave cigs.
