Hi everyone and my first questions!

[pheeph]

Hello everyone!
My name is Felix, I'm based in Liverpool and just bought my first e-cigarette! After reading some posts on this very helpful forum (thanks guys!) I bought an evod. My first two juices are Cinnamon and Vaping Prime from Dekang. So far I think I actually prefer the Cinnamon one! It took me a while to get the smoke (oh, sorry, vapour!) thick and nice and not to pull on it like it's a cigarette. Also, in the beginning, I found it quite sharp, I don't know whether I'm used to it now or whether I just got it right with the amount of air/vapor... I actually find myself covering some of the little holes that let the air in (there might be a term for it) and quite like it that way. Now my question:
- How do I start finding my way through the myriads of different juices?
- What do you think about nicotine free juices?
- I saw these herbal ones on totally wicked (am I allowed to mention them?) and that looks really cool, do they do the trick?
- I guess I shouldn't ask which one's your favorite (others have done that and earned gazillion of answers) but rather which one was the first one that really hit the spot for you, something that is like a classic, not to miss, the one where most people would agree: Yes, that's what it's about!
- And one last one: How do I know when I have to change the coil?
So, I guess that's it for now, this is fun!
cheers,
felix

Welcome to the family Felix! Glad to hear you have made the transition to vaping
Now to answer a few of the question you have i'll format them for easy reading

1. New juices! You will find that some vendors / websites offer sample packs one of these sites being Smokerainbow.com it can sometimes be a little tedious wading through all the flavours to find one you really love.
2. I haven't really vaped any of the nicotine free ones, only a few puffs in my local vape shop so i can't really voice my opinion on this one, maybe someone else can help you here.
3. Same as number 2 on this one
4. Everyone in the vaping community is going to have a different opinion on their favorites, i have a few favorites i can share but its all on you to figure out what you like.. Monkey Jizz (Bananna Custard) Apple pie and custard (title says all) and MDV 666 (Rasperry cheesecake) all of these can be found on VapingKing.co.uk, I vape MJ and APC daily and i would recommend them to anyone.
5. Now coils can be a touchy subject and it depends on a few variables, Different juices can gunk up different coils at different rates and everyones taste is different, in my case its normally when i see a change in performance, sometimes i'm able to clean it well under some hot water and dry burn it till it stops smoking and its good as new, other times i just know its time for a new one xD

Hope i have been able to help you out

Welcome to POTV!

I had a try of some nic free juice today for the first time, there was a lack of throat hit but plenty of taste and vapour. I'm puffin on 11mg juice atm and there wasnt really much of a difference in enjoyment

You need to find a local vape shop that will let you try a few juices - no idea if there are any in Liverpool as I left Merseyside about 6 years ago. Hopefully somebody local will be able to tell you about local shops. Otherwise smokerainbow is a good suggestion.

Personally my ADV (all-day vape) is Dr. Stanley Clark's original recipe Snake Oil - if you PM @Tmax then I believe he'll send out a sample. Mrs Lord's juices are highly recommended by a lot of people, but I haven't tried any yet. Also @MrKraken does a fine range of juices. Other vendors are available

You could also try mixing your own which works out a lot cheaper in the long run.

You can rebuild the coils in the Evod, which saves a lot of money, there are videos on Youtube that show how to do that, and I think there are some threads on here or in the Wiki that cover that as well.
It's worth trying a microcoil with a cotton wick for that as many of us reckon it improves the flavour.

Oh, and welcome to the Planet, Felix.

woohoo! thank you sm00shed and robteifi ! This sounds great (Monkey Jizz, snake oil....)! Now I'm thinking I shouldn't have filled them both that much, so I can try different things sooner! That tasting pack sounds great too, but I'll try to find a vendor here in Liverpool that offers some tasters.
I guess on the long run I'll try to mix stuff myself, but for now I just want to see what's out there!

Welcome mate as others mentioned rebuilding evods/protanks are simple and save a fortune in the long run compared to buying the pre-made ones. It was watching some reviewers that lead me here and glad it did ; )
