Thanks for the warm welcome people . Very eager to learn more from experienced individuals like yourselves. The hobby has thus far become a source of escapism from my hectic and stressful to say the least personal circumstances. I also hope to meet some of you in person in the near future.

Hi all
Software/App developer from JHB.
Very new to vaping but I've taken the plunge with both feet and a lot of gusto. Smoked for the past 20 odd years and decided in July last year to give vaping a shot seeing as a few mates had taken up the addiction .. I mean hobby
Started with a dirt-cheap PoS AIO that I bought from a mate for like R100. It was, looking back now, horrific... but it did help me stop smoking within 2 days of starting to vape and I haven't touched a smoke since.
Moved onto a better AIO and am now on a Pico with a Subtank Mini. Decided that spending a boat-load of cash on coils and juice wasn't for me so the past month have started making coils, juice and extracts.
Still lots to learn so I'm looking forward to being a part of this forum!

Hey Guys
New to the forum and vaping.
I have only been vaping for 4 months and started with the ego AIO. I played around with it reading hacks and mods to make it better.
Dont get me wrong, im that kind of guy but i wanted something better. I recently purchased a Movkin Disguiser 150w with Griffin 25 tank.
When i got the unit i was so excited but did not know a thing about coil builds and settings.
I visited the guys at Vape King South and Steven and Wayne helped me a lot with the theory behind coil building.
I can now say with pride i have already built 5 different coils experimenting all the time with LOTS to learn.
I hope this intro was not to boring..

Good morning all from a windy Cape Town.
I've been on the stinkies for over 20 years now and have had a run in with every twisp product out there in the hope they would get better ( but never do).
A month ago I pulled the pin on a Vgod 150 and have never looked back nor picked up the zippo.
This has caused a different problem though , my addictive personality has taken over and in this time I have added a AV mech mod as well 12 tanks with loads on the wishlist. * wife rolls eyes*
I seem to find something very therapeutic about building coils.
From the look of some of your collections I see I would be in good company here.

Welcome to the forum @RayDeny
Congrats on the vaping
Despite the wife rolling her eyes (most of us know that too well) and the enthusiasm to try loads of different setups, vaping is still a major win!
Enjoy your stay

Welcome to the community @RayDeny . Hahaha, yes the bug does bite and one quickly becomes very addicted to knowing exactly which products are available and what they can/claim to do. I think you'll quickly pick up in the discussions: the Vape vs hrh (her royal Highness, which is wife in Vape land) issue is a biggie among plenty of members. Looking forward to your questions and contributions
Hey guys!...* My names Gemini.....I.T techie and graphics designer....been off stinkies for about a month now....so yeah new to the vaping world but loving every second....running a twisp aero but cant wait till i can jump to a decent mod.....
Hi @PuffPastry welcome to the club. Hope you enjoy the experience and good luck with staying off the stinkies. The hard part's done, so just keep going
