Hi all...

I have had several failed attempts at switching to vaping in the past. I have been a smoker 30 years now, 20 a day (sometimes more) so pretty serious. The failed attempts in the past came down to a few things, I never quite got the right set up I don't think, and more so, vaping some nice fruity flavours was nice, but it never quite cut it with that morning coffee, or after a meal. I couldn't get along with any tobacco juices I tried either. Recently I got interested in giving up smoking again, lets face it we all know how bad it is for us, and the cost of it is getting too much (in the uk at least)

I spent a fair bit of time researching about starter kits, and juices. I ran in to manabush juices, read about them on here actually. I read that they had to change some ingredients, but fortunately I never tried the originals, so they tasted awesome to me from the off. Tried most of the range that took my fancy and settled on a couple of juices I really like, that are actually doing me just fine with the morning coffee, and after a meal. I am running them in Jac Vapour series s-22, have been really impressed with it, the best starter kit I have tried, and I have tried a few in the past. So in a way all is good, I am 13 days cigarette free, which doesn't sound much, but it's a big deal for me, and although the odd time I reach for the ciggs that aren't there without thinking, mostly I am really getting there I feel.

That's the story behind it, maybe not needed, but it feels good to write about it too be honest. The advice I am looking for is a good set up tank and mod that go together well that will give me a good MTL experience., I will still be using my Jac Vapour kit when I am out and about (when we are allowed out and about again ) but am really looking for a good set up to treat myself as a reward for getting this far, and hopefully encourage me to stick to it.

Thanks for reading.
 
Morning @Torskus77 , first off well done on being smoke free, it might not seem like long but it's a great achievement and you should be proud of yourself! For MTL I would personally recommend either the Nautilus range or a good mod with a Zenith/Zlide tank. It really depends on your budget but you can't go too far wrong with a Kroma mod which will come as a kit with a Zenith or Zlide.
It's Manabush juices that got me off the cigs too, Chiri Sun is my go to liquid.
 
Thank you for your reply. I have looked at the Nautilus, been reading up about their tanks, they seem to have several that are considered good solid MTL vapes. I get lost because I don't know which mod to buy to go with them, do any specifically come with them? I really am a beginner.

Chiri Sun is also my all day vape, although I received the chiri Sun from the tribute range yesterday, and I have to say my early thoughts are I really like it. Although I can't get 18mg only 12mg, you lose a little of the throat hit, but I'm actually getting along with it fine. Omusa is my treat vape, I couldn't vape it all day long, but it is really good for with coffee and after eating for me.

I will take a look at what you mentioned, thank you again. My budget is pretty much what I want it to be, as in I am saving a lot from smoking, so if there is something in particular I like that costs a lot, I can go with it, but I don't want to spend money just for the sake of it of course.
 
Hi, you can buy Nautilus kits what come with the tank and a mod, there's a Nautilus 2 kit and a GT kit. I can't speak as to how good the mods are with those though as I've not used them personally, might be worth checking out some reviews.
With a new mod it's worth asking do you want a single battery or dual, or integrated battery?
If you get an external battery mod you'll need to get a good charger and some spare batteries.
I vape 12mg and you lose a little throat hit but it's worth it for the flavour of the Manabush liquids!!
 
+1 for the zlide/zenith tank.
there are several kits available that come with these tanks. Have a look at
kroma a zenith kit
Coolfire mini zenith
adept zlide
kroma r (takes a external battery)

for my 1st mod and tank set up I went for the zlide tank and armour pro mod (now discontinued) brought seperately as I wanted a external battery mod. If you decide on a external battery mod charger, 2 batteries and a charger will add a extra £20-25 to your budget but worth it imo as you can just swap batteries and carry on vaping with the same set up.

also theres many bargains to be had (my 1st mod was £35 my last one £6) so worth asking here if any know a good price on the kit you decide on.
 
Sorry for hijacking your thread but just wanted to ask the best place to get 18650 batteries, also good job on the quitting, I am nearly 3 weeks without a ciggie after 47 years :)
