Introduce Yourselves:

Hey guys, Rudy here. Pleased to vape with you all... I started vaping cz I was on the stinks and then contracted TB and was sent to hospital for a fluid drain from my lungs and well, was told by everyone to stop smoking. Stopped smoking with much success but I could not let myself go crazy any longer. So I consulted my doctor and she said she wont advice me to do vape but she cant say that it is bad for me. So now I vape, got myself a Twisp Edge. So now I wana get the most out of this, it seems fun and exciting with all the flavours and designs and mods... So look out for me, I will be asking a lot of questions

Hi Rudy. Welcome to the wonderful and flavourful world of vaping. We love questions. Happy vaping.
 
Welcome @RudyMaart ... fire away with questions the guys on here are like the oracles of vaping...
 
Hello all, new member on the forum after lurking for a few weeks.

My vaping experience started way back when it was not very well known to the masses in South Africa. I imported most my hardware as none (what I wanted) was available locally at that time. After a while it got very expensive and unsatisfying and thus I gave up and started smoking again. My last mod was a Vamo 2 running a Kanger Protank 1, I still have this setup and vaping like I remember it.

My cousin got me into vaping again after I tried his Eleaf 50w and Kanger Subtank Mini. This is what vaping had to be and now I have ordered my first hardware locally from SAVapeGear and looking forward to getting off the smokes (again).

The wealth of knowledge from this forum and local retailers has made it very easy to find exactly what I wanted.

Keep it up guys/girls!

I have been reading over a few discussions and introductions and i am very interested to now what is dropping? I use an evolution vape Spitfire, 1,8 ohm coil and a 1600mah battery with variable voltage from 3,2 to 4,8. Produces a great cloud with there evolution juices. Oh and i have never been a smoker but love the vaping.

Welcome to the forum @Machx
Yip, vaping is growing and becoming more popular by the week
I assume your question is "what is dripping", and not "dropping".
Dripping is when you have an atomiser that does not have a tank of juice onboard and you drip drops of juice directly on the wick or in the atomiser then puff a few puffs till its dry, then drip again.

Dripping generally produces better flavour than basic tanks but it is less convenient for travelling around with your vape.

Nowadays though, tanks are coming out with flavour nearly as good as drippers.

Enjoy your stay

Hi guys
Have been lurking around for a week or two and already got a lot info. Never been on the stinkies but was a avid hookah smoker.
Was always trying new methods, coals, bowls etc. to get better flavor and clouds. But with vaping you get more reward for the effort you put in so I am sold..haha

My girlfriend got me a Evic VT with the Ego mega tank for my birthday so that's basically how I officially started vaping. Been vaping on her Istick 30w/Nautilus mini before that so maybe she was tired of me hogging her vape...haha

Anyway looking forward to getting to know you guys and learning more about all things Vape.
