HELP HEADACHES

[Baj2KL]

Well im still smoking not vaping as much due to the headaches as im finding it really difficult to vape dont want the headaches back u c, i understand its a mental thing but this is the hardest thing iv tried and i really do want to stop smoking, iv also tried a kangertech subvod 6mg 0.5 coil but even that gives me a migraine and dizziness after a bit, my younger brother has a innokin cool fire 4 plus with a isub tank, i could try that with a 1.0 coil, what recommended wattage should i try???

Get some 12mg liquid, 50/50 and try the 1Ω coil at 10w then go up 2 at a time until it seems right.

sounds like direct to lung at 40w with 6mg is too strong for you then.
either try 3mg and vape your tits off with that or as above the 1ohm coil with 50/50 juice at i would say 6mg first but then try 12mg and see which suits you best.
i smoked for 37 years and gave up overnight with 18mg in a nautilus tank at 12watts with 1.8ohm coil. i now vape anything upto 50ml a day at 3mg and have never had a headache once

Thanks for the reply was vaping at the recommended 40watt but seeing as im a smoker should my body not be used to the nicotine/pulls inhallation etc, its been like this for a few days not vaping as much know, iv ordered some 3mg heisenberg, should i go all 100%VG, any recommended ecigs i could try besides the smik x priv??

40w vaping is better suited to 3mg strength, 6mg an above will give most people Nicotine overdose. I used to get Nic overdode using 12w and a kanger protank with a 1.6 coil head and 18mg, dropped to 12mg and the Nic OD stopped. I now vape 3mg with 40-70w most of the time.
In sense you have 2 choices. Using 3 mg in sub ohm tanks and higher wattage. or using 12 mg in something like the Aspire nautilus tank, with 1.6ohm coils and 10-15w.
My other advice is spend the money you smoke on juice or vape gear that way you have to vape as you can't afford to buy ciggies. and throw yourself into it once you have smoked your last Ciggie, get rid of all the lighters, ashtrays etc. That is how i managed to quit after 27 yrs of smoking fags and weed. That was 4 years ago.
Good luck to you, but you can do it especially with the forum members support and advice.

Hi mate, congratulations on giving up. I needed to up my water intake when first starting to vape, also don't be surprised at subtle changes as your body and particularly mouth "heal". I believe smoking reduces blood flow (gums etc) and when it returns to normal it can take a few weeks to settle. A couple of mouth ulcers are not uncommon and in fact are a positive sign! Keep at it, a lot of vapers, including myself, were extremely heavy smokers and celebrate the day we dumped the cigs

Big cloud chuckers can make me feel a little dizzy too so I go for little cloud chuckers. So it could be that

It could be the nicotine, maybe a drop to 3mg instead of 6 would help

Or maybe you just need more water.

Take your pick and repeat until you figure out which it is

I was going to suggest water as well. Vaping dries my throat out.

Hi, welcome to the planet Baj2KL

I duel fuelled for only 2 weeks when i started vaping almost a year ago, and founf that i wnated fewer and fwer cigarettes as i got used to the technology. Towards the end i noticed that did occasionally get a head rush, if had a cigarette then vaped afterwards...so i reduced the number of cigarettes each day..till i was only having 1 or 2 a day. When i ran out of cigs...i stopped altogether..and never looked back.

I'd recommend that you also try a smaller mod & MTL tank, like the Nautilus 1 or 2..and see how that fairs for you..as not all newbies take to DTL straight off the bat, as you are currently using. What nic strenth to go for is as individual to each person as their DNA. Formerly a 20 a day man, i started with 12mgs nic with my MTL tanks...and 6 or 3 mgs in my DTL tank. With almost a year under my belt as a vaper...i feel i can reduced the MTL juices down to 6 or 9mgs this year.

Oh...i do drink a lot more now.....it's no biggy.

Hope you suss out your preferences soon....it does take a while to find one's groove with vaping....perserver and you'll work it out soon enough.
