Hi all,
Finally registered.
I gave up the ciggies beginning Feb for vaping. So far I now have 4 mods, a v8 stick, 10 tanks, own kit and building own coils and jyst started making own juice so I'd say this bug has bitten hard. So instead of idle hands this keeps me busy and I haven' looked back putting the smokes down after close to 20 years.
I've just joined the forum but have read so many posts so a BIG THANKS to all on here for the insight and opinions. I had so many questions since i started but the forum truly helped and now I can engage in discussions, ask questions and try to be a contributing part of the group... I hope

Yeah the rabbit hole is truly deep, but so enjoyable. Congrats on kicking the stinky habit - an awesome achievement. Looking forward to your contributions. Happy vaping.

Welcome @Lightweightvapeape . Lots of good advice on vaping here. If you really want to get into vaping, your next steps would be making your own coils, and then your own juice. You can get endless help here as well as on YouTube. Enjoy the ride. My no.1 piece of advice is to not waste too much money on hardware. Gain as much knowledge as to what type of vaping you prefer, and then buy the necessary hardware. There is little difference between mods these days (apart from the number of batteries, squonk and mech/regulated).

Thank you for the advice puff I got a mod for cheap this weekend (Kangertech KBOX Mini) that has a starter kit for own coils so really looking forward to playing around with that as soon as I've got that down I'll start looking at creating my own juice

I started with that kit and still use it to this day. The coils can be a little difficult to get perfect at first, but you'll be vaping on your own in no time!

That's great news, I was kinda scared I made a hasty purchase but so far I'm really happy with it and It's awesome to hear that someone experienced also uses this kit

Nope that is a great purchase.

I actually saw the platinum kit on sale last week, and I'm still trying to hold off on it. Wish it would just disappear already so that I don't end up with another setup!

Ah! And such nice packaging! All the bits and bobs... Stickers for your batteries... They used to put so much thought into the packaging of kits!

Now I really want another one!

Those pics really take me back to the good old days when vaping was simple. One mod and rta and I was as happy as Larry. Today with more than 15 mods and who knows how many RDAs RTAs RDTAs , and I am really very little better off.

I started with that kit and still use it to this day. The coils can be a little difficult to get perfect at first, but you'll be vaping on your own in no time!

I think many of us had this kit as our first 'real' vape. Got me hooked for sure. The subtank and its little rba were the perfect intro to coils and everything dyi that followed.

Hi All

Another noob here I'm from Welkom in the Free State and started vaping about 3 weeks ago. Might have went a little overboard for a beginner but I love my toys and gadgets and vaping has got sooooo many! I have a Smok G Priv 2 kit, the Smok Prince Tank, the Smok Priv v8, the Drop RDA from Digiflavour and the Mad Dog RDA. Only started building my own coils the last couple of days and still learning alot!

Found the forum quite helpful so thanks for everyone contributing here!
