1st big step

[Fubar1977]

well, most people start on an ego or something similar, after a short time they start to "Test" out other types of e-cigs and tank and clearomisers then different mods and atomisers and the next thing you know, they're collecting all sorts of "Shiny" stuff.....Dont worry about it.....Come back to me in a month or so and tell me different.....We ALL do it....


"Shineyitis"....I suffer from it myself...

Yep, I'm at the top of that slippery slope myself.
The way I see it you can buy a ton of shiny stuff for way less then many of us have regularly spent on cigs/tobacco and you have something cool to show for it, especially if you're already a gadget fiend like I am
Stick with it, experiment and you'll find the right setup for you, good luck from another newbie!

Well Rusky what Blackhack means is you may just find yourself at the whim of all the pretty shiny devices which you can find on various vaping sites I'll put it this way I use an app to keep a record of my vape expenses and in 10 weeks I've done in 500quid good luck with your quest

Rusky The evod is a great starter kit. Basically, these lads like their shiny toys and they're trying to lure you in ;-) Nothing wrong with that, but others like me want a no-fuss vape system and that's cool too. Vaping can be whatever you want it to be, from hobby to obsession to a no-frills smoking-replacement. You'll soon find out what suits you, and there are vapers of all stripes on this forum, all of them happy to help.

You said you're struggling a bit with cravings. What do you think isn't working for you? How many/what did you smoke, and what mg nic juices are you using? Is it the nicotine or maybe not getting enough "throat hit"? If you can give us some details, you'll soon have more advice and support than you know what to do with. to the Planet.

I would also suggest that you pick up a top coil clearo, such as the iclear 16, it will give you a different type of vape which some find more satisfying. Basically a warmer one

Hiya mate,

These guys are not wrong - I've only been vaping for a month or so, and have already been hit by the shiny bug! There are so many toys out there that it is hard to resist (lock up your credit card after you've had a couple of shandies!). Good luck!

Welcome Rusky from a fellow new member! I haven't even received my first vape kit (it's in the post) and I'm already excited for future shinies from looking on the forums here - magpie indeed!

well i think /im hoping its cos at the moment im using a slightly moded look alike shop bought thing with lt ecig 18mg menthol juice (i wish i never wasted my money on )im hoping my new toy will help i was a 20+ a day menthol rollie guy using aber leaf sorry to be thick what is this throat hit as if its what im thinking dont get that at the moment just a little vaper and a bit of taste to get the same mentol tast in my mouth im puffing like a train

If you were smoking 20+ rollies a day, you might want a stronger juice (24mg), if not for your regular juice then at least to have on hand if the cravings hit big-time.

Throat hit is...like, you know that sensation you got when you pulled on a coffin nail and it hit you in the back of the throat? Like that, except with vaping it will do you no harm.

will see what happens with the new toy
