Hi all,

Been vaping for over 2 years. I'm a lazy vaper and prefer automatic... Currently on Ovale mini x 4. I puff them double barrel...

Looking for suppliers as my current supplier seems to have trouble stocking.

Just started DIY-ing. Couldn't find liquorice juice anywhere! It's been one helluva lekker journey so far!!!

Been buying every smoker e-cigs and have a 100% success rate in converting.

Hi @Deldi Burger

Welcome to the forum and I hope you enjoy it here. That is one very impressive conversion rate!

You can find lots of DIY ideas, recipes, advice etc. in this section of the forum: http://www.ecigssa.co.za/forums/diy-liquid-mixing-vg-and-pg/ (especially in these threads: http://www.ecigssa.co.za/calling-all-diyers.t10799/ and http://www.ecigssa.co.za/diy-your-first-time.t7324/)

As for finding new suppliers, you can post any queries in this subforum: http://www.ecigssa.co.za/who-has-stock.f68/ and any of the excellent registered vendors here (who do have the stock you need) are sure to reply. It does seem however that there is a very strong move (in the vaping industry in general) towards more 'powerful' and / or 'complicated' equipment, so I think that smaller automatic vaping devices (and cartridges, coils, parts etc.) will become increasingly hard to find.

Btw, very cool quote in your profile :)

Hi all,

Stopped smoking over a decade ago, and then started vaping over December while trying to convince the wife that vaping is better than smoking...
Still haven't convinced her, but the habit stuck.
Hey buddy, welcome - enjoy your stay here with us.

Just want to mention to you that on this forum you will find a plethora of information related to the safety of vaping in comparison to stinkies. I am sure this can assist in your defense against your wife. A very good member to follow on this forum is @Alex he has some very good threads regarding vaping. Yes i know it is a lot of reading, but hey doing battle with the finance minister and control of vape budgets a.k.a wife lady, you will need all the information at your disposal.

Hi All. Tried vaping about 2 years ago but gave up in disgust because of constantly leaking equipment. Thinking of getting topbox mini and trying again.
 
Mornings hi all

So I'm new to the forum and vaping in general. Only been vaping for just over a month and am proud to say tht I have not touched a cig in tht time, which for me is a massive achievement on its own...I mean going from 2 packs a day to nothing.

As for what equipment I am using I currently have the ijust 2 kit...love it but plan on upgrading to a tc mod soon...just need to decide on one tht I like lol leaning towards the evic but it's not set in stone yet. Already picked up a goblin mini rta which I am going to try out on the ijust as soon as I have more practice coiling and wicking.

I'm also very keen on diy juice and am seriously looking into tht so u guys might see me around very often on there.

Anyways tht my vape story in a nutshell
 
Welcome aboard @Pindyman! It's an awesome journey you have started... I am 2 and a half years clean and everyday I feel proud... I was a heavy smoker for 40 years! The Evic is a great mod!
 
Wow! A big welcome to all the new stinkie haters! Great to have you all on board, and congratulations on your moving to vaping.
 
Welcome all the new members. Great to see you joined one of the most (if not the most) helpful and friendly vaping communities on the net.

@Beethoven , I can only agree with other members that the vape scene has drastically changed in the last 2 years. The amount of devices and tanks and even juice on the local market now, actually makes it difficult to choose new kit to start off with. Just be sure that most of them will be good choices if you do some research and check out the various opinions on the forum. On the juice front, which is just as important as the device, the local vendors stock amazing ranges that should cater for any need or taste, even the quirky ones.

@Pindyman , you cannot go wrong with the Evic VTC mini. It is an easy carry and packs a punch for a small device. TC features on it are top notch and software updates can be applied very easy.

For those in the Gauteng area, there is a vape meet organized for Saturday the 5th March. Friendly vendors, awesome people and a bunch of experienced vapers all willing to share information and experiences in one place. Definitely an event not to miss.

Thanks @Lingogrey!

I understand that the automatic battery isn't for everyone. It's sad, though. I can be using both my hands and still be puff'n.

You won't regret it I got the top box atty with the evic, they were out of stock on the mod so I got the evic mod instead. I received it on Friday, the only problem I had was that the atty didn't turn all the way down flush on the mod, but I fixed the problem by making a plastic spacer. I don't know if it's a general problem or just me. What is nice is that you can build your own coil with it too,so you can practice on it too. You can set the airflow right down on it for mouth to lung, and open It up nice and big and it has huge cloud production for those direct lung hits. All in all a great alrounder for beginner or experienced Vader. Enjoy it.

Welcome @Fiddle|tweak, I had to modify your username slightly.

Marty here. But you can just call me Trouble muahahahahaha.

Off the cigarettes a while now but I will be honest here. Vaping is much more to me than staying off cigarettes.

I really REALLY love inhaling and blowing huge clouds. A simple thing that brings me more joy than makes sense to most. And nicotine consumed this way is absolutely fantastic stuff!!

The pure enjoyment is also helping me go through what is turning out to be a very ugly break up.

And the community is just awesome. Like a little family. So yeah overall I am head over heels in love with vaping.
