That's wonderful pothole! Converting your surgeon and his nurses! I'm quitting smoking because I know I should... I'm doing it with vaping because I love smoking (if that makes sense). It's such a weird thing to know how bad and nasty a habit is but to still love it!
I would love to hear your experiences with the nic content (or anyone elses for that matter). Does the content just become too harsh and you know it's time to drop it lower, or do you have to make an effort to slowly reduce?[/QUOTE]
Everyone is different, when I started I got 16mg and 24mg liquids. They would both make me cough at times and would also give me shortness of breath after steady vaping, just like smoking did. Being much like smoking's effect on me helped make the experience more realistic and probably aided in my effort to vape and not smoke.
Nicotine isn't the big killer that it's made out to be. If you find yourself feeling the effects of too much(dizzy, nauseous)
slow down on vaping a bit and cut down the nic level of the liquid when you are able.
Some set-ups will just deliver more juice/flavour and nic. than other systems.
You may find that the more efficient the system, the less nic. you'll need in your liquids.
After much research in the DIY e-liquid forum here(
DIY E-Liquid ) I got into DIY and make my own juice
tailored to my own exact wants and needs. Reading all those stickies can be more than a little overwhelming and DIY is certainly not for everyone(especially newbies) but the option is there none the less.
You've got a ton of great advice already but I'll re-inforce the suggestion to check utube(or do a search here) for tutorials on how to use the specific items that you have coming in your kit so you at least have an idea of where to start when it all arrives.
It sure is a lot to learn in the begining, take your time, you're gonna love vaping and not smoking as much
a lot!
