    A bloggish thing

    I have done a bit of mycelium (oyster mushrooms and such) and brewing in the past so have some pretty decent scales and the odd measuring flasks, pipettes etc at home, for now though I will just buy juice made by the more experienced. As to diy, I spent R770 on rebuild-able coils (6x coil kits...

    A bloggish thing

    My experience with juice: Bit of background here, I have never enjoyed menthol or anything that resembles it. I got my first mod and pod after being really confused by friends trying to help me out on this journey. I walked into a vape store, asked what they had and bought the best looking...

    A bloggish thing

    My Human! Seriously, everything you said above is very much how I have felt and am feeling at this point. Keep the rituals: At this moment I am sitting outside on my back stoep vaping, it's where I always smoked and as I am a father of two I do not want to get my kids addicted to nicotine...

    A bloggish thing

    Wish List: At this point I have decided I want a new tank, strongly leaning towards dead rabbit. I also want a new mod for the tank. I am petrified that I lose, have stolen, lost or break my current mod and end up on smokes because mid month I have no cash or for some reason can not get...

    Current setup: Geekvape Obelisk 200 mod. Voopoo pnp pod tank kit with 5x pods (6 pods total) all running on SMRTcoil rebuildable coil kits with nexMESH Extreme 0.20Ω coils between 30 to 45 W depending on the juice, time of day, nic content and what angle the butterfly flapped it's wings. 2x...

    A bloggish thing

    So I am not going to retype my history or any of that here, I am hoping to just add new or unread content in my newbie role as a vaper. I'll do a tldr though: Smoker for 30 years, patches and pills made it worse, from chainsmoker to vaper within days of buying decent mod and pod. Vaping a...

    Swapped my first coil.

    I was smoking 40 on a good day, 60 to 80 most days. Yes, 3 to 4 packs. A day. Chain smoker... I actually blame this on trying to stop using nicotine patches and gum when I was a teenager. They made me more addicted because I would crave the TH and general ritual. I would buy just one "loose...

    Swapped my first coil.

    Within 2 days the morning cough and snot just vanished, last Saturday I spent the day installing network cables in a factory, up and down steep steps and ladders carrying tools and a ladder all day, first time in years that I was not out of breath doing that type of work.

    Coil Recommendations

    DL it is sweet, overpoweringly so. It leaves a sweet residue on my tongue and the back of my throat, feels like I have been chewing on a canderel sweetener. MTL, like nothing, just sweet aftertaste. @ivc_mixer said he would make me something to mix it into to fix it so will be doing that soon.

    I have an 18mg version of that juice and do not like it...

    Swapped my first coil.

    Well I started this journey thinking likely going to need salts and an mtl device to get over the cigarette craving but luckily the device I got allows for mtl and dl cause now I am 100% of the time DL with 9mg to 18mg juices. Still too much of a newbie to really know what I want but getting...

    Swapped my first coil.

    last Q, i pulled a bit over 1mm juice out of the pod before the coil swap,reuse or throw away?
  18. AstroT

    Swapped my first coil.

    kit: Voopoo PNP on a Obelisk 200 using voopoo vm6 (.15 ohm) stock coil that came with the pod. For the past day or so I have noticed that my tobacco pod tastes a little strange, as in chemical/astringent/less flavour. It's a flavour I remember from the ego-t days.. For the last 3 days or so...

    Major pitstop

    Been shaving my head with one of those for the last few months, but a cheapie from the local cafe :-D works like an absolute charm but have to be extremely careful because skin is pretty thin on the skull. R20 for handle and a blade and another R25 for 5 extra blades, cheapest and best shave by...

    What Do you vape throughout the day?

    So I'm pretty new to vaping, tried 10 years ago with the ego junk, failed, tried again recently and now I prefer it to combustibles by far (to the point where I actually gave my last pack away to a random stranger). I was smoking 40 to 60 "filters" or whatever they call them these days... I...
