My name is Chris, from West Yorkshire, and I'm a vapourholic....... Whoops, wrong group LOL

Anyway, I've been vaping for around 4 months, and gave up a 30 roll-ups per day habit in 24 hours, after buying a Ego bog basic E-pen for £5. I had no intentions of giving up smoking the real thing, but a £5 curiosity purchase changed my life style over night. As a bit of an engineer, I've been customising my current standard Ego style gear, and will soon be building my own manual mods with 18650 battery fitting.
I've enjoyed laughing at all the nonsense being said about how harmful E-vaping is, and how I'm going to die because someone hasn't fully tested it in a lab. I must be having a final burst of life before I die, given that in 4 months my smell and taste sensations have improved, I'm not breathing like a 90 year old, and I generally feel 200% better than I did 4 months ago. Doing a 10 mile fast pace walk the other week, took less out of me than running up the stairs used to LOL.

Anyway, below is my current build, which has the guts of a 1100 mAh Ego-T in it + a parallel 650 mAh battery (making it 1750 mAh) , along with a pro tank mini. Casing is 1mm thick, 20mm chromed brass tube, with a solid brass bottom bung, which adds a bit of weight, giving a better feel in the hand. Looking forward to experimenting and building manual mods, and the improved vape you get from them.

Welcome to the Gang Chris!!! Most People get Shinyitus after a While, but it looks like you've took it to a new level!!! Congrats on kicking the Stinkies and enjoy your stay here!!!:welcome1:
 
Cheers for the welcome :-). Yes kind f hooked on the building of mods, more than I am the vaping LOL Almost down to 0% nicotine fluid already, which is another surprise for me. Started on 24mg fluid, which I then dropped to 18mg. I then filled a 100ml bottle with 18mg double mint, which I've been topping up with 0mg fluid for the last 4 weeks, so I think my current fluid stands around the 5-8mg level, and maybe even less. Because the nicotine level has been slowly diluted, I've not really noticed any craving or change in habit etc.
Going to be giving some DIY fluid mixing a go soon, once I've researched in to using peppermint extract. I prefer an OTT mint flavour, which I've only managed to get so far, from "cloudstix.com's" double mint. So any suggestions on really strong mint flavour suppliers (peppermint, not spearmint), or on self mixing, would be a bonus ;-)
