Hi everyone

[Gavin Cockitt]

Hi everyone.
I have been vaping for 2 years, at the start I started vaping to quit the cigs, after a hard few months I finally found a Mod and tank that works for me, I found that Sub ohm was the best way forward as I loved blowing clouds. After 2 weeks I had a smoke with one of my friends, and I could not finish it, I found the taste and smell to be a lot worse than when I was smoking, and that was when I saw how much my taste and smell had changed from when I was smoking.
I hope to see what other vape users are doing and to see if I can learn anything useful with my time here.
All the best.

I really don't know why I didn't look for a forum when I started, probably would of helped and saved me some pain with tanks and coils.

Hi mate, they taste even worse after a year, had 1 drag after 12 mths and it was revolting. Brother in law torched one up the other day "want one?" Told him id prefer to eat dirt as i held my ecig up. He looked at me stupid. I can only surmise it was/is because he is stupid. Welcome to where the wise people are!

The foul taste of tobacco is the main reason for debunking the gateway theory.Nobody is going to think that cigarettes taste good after vaping e liquid.I am glad that you are now an ex smoker and i hope you continue to progress.

I haven't gone back to cigs since I started vaping but the taste would definitely be a factor in going back, e liquids are so damn tasty these days, originally they weren't brilliant with a really limited range. for the first couple years I kept a little pot of cigarette ends and would go over and smell it every now and then when I was thinking about smoking. always completely disgusting. Welcome and good luck on your journey!

& to the Planet Gavin!
I know what you mean about the smell of cig smoke, I quit the pyros only about a month ago. My sister dropped by the other day, and had a ciggy...I told her to smoke outside! The smell was revolting! Can't believe how quickly I've gone from being a nose 'deaf' smoker..to hating the stench of tobacco smoke now. I can now see why folks used to moan about it when I was a smoker. It's really odd how one isn't able to notice it when smoking..i used to just wonder what all the fuss was about!

Anyhoo..welcome aboard mate..folks are really friendly in here...and don't be afraid to ask anything..I've made many 'newbie' queries since I joined..all answered sincerely.

And that aside..it's a right laugh in here too!

Thanks man, that's a good way to keep off the cigs, I find that the smell from my atomizer is a lot more pleasant and my Mrs won't bother me about my breath, she also switched onto vaping after she found a pen style one she liked. Now we both fight over juices.
