Introduce Yourselves:

[Anwar]

Welcome @foGGyrEader. There are plenty of good juices to pick from, so you'd better start throwing hints in the direction of whoever is going to write that letter to Santa, so the elves know where to get the stock. Love that Avatar pic of yours, it will help @Rob Fisher remember to take his medication every time you post, otherwise he's going to keep adjusting the screen
Glad you decided to join & introduce yourself.

Welcome to you @Anwar as well. Glad you got sorted on the wicking. There are threads on the goblin mini wicking which I see you already discovered. I'm sure @Marzuq has his permanently attached to his one hand, even if he's vaping on another device in the other. These guys are always willing to share successes and tips how to keep things simple and still perform like a champ.

As an FYI for both of you, @Wyvern is organizing a get-together in Cape Town if you want to meet some of the vapers in your area. Yep I know - funny people these vapers. Actually organizes socials, who would have thunk. It should be fun though - details at http://www.ecigssa.co.za/cape-town-meet-cbc-brewery-12-december.t16861/.
Have fun here and keep Cape Town cloudy.

What a welcome thank you

Hey guys

New to ecigssa also new to vaping

Was a smoker for almost 15 years joined the vaping revolution 5 months ago and never looked back

First device was a eleaf tc 40 with a aspire triton tank with o.4ohm coils was amazing tried different juices and I was loving my new lifestyle, something happened and my device broke got myself an Ijust2 with a 0.3ohm coil due to the amazing coil I was loving my new device but a week later the coil gave in and started giving me dry hits inserted new coil and again loving it, during this time I new I needed to get me something else as a second device due to the high consumption of coils, I decided to enter the world of RBA's got myself a evic vtc mini 60w and the goblin mini, 26 gauge kanthal wire and jap cotton

After 3 days of struggling I finally got my wicking right and may I say what an amazing atty it is...

Keep on vaping...chase those clouds
BOOOMMM...

Hi to all the Vapers out there!

A tidbit about myself:
Suffice to say that Vaping is becoming a massive trend that is taking RSA by storm and I have been actively mixing my own juices, building coils, customizing mods and basically Blowing Massive Clouds for going on three months now. Still a Noob in my opinion so please feel free to share ideas and configurations that I may enjoy.

Like a lot of you out there, I have been a chainsmoker seeking the cheap high of an enjoyable pastime for 10 years and finally found something that can both satisfy my creative and technical juices and am looking forward to enticing others to join the Vape-Generation!

Current Configuration:
Kangertech Subox Mini RBA Build (7-50W)
Stickerbomb Graffiti Vinyl Stickers
Additional 3 Coil FishBone Dripper, The Big Dripper Clone
SkyBlue Vape Mixing Set complete with VG and PG juice
Coil Masters Kit V2 Clone

Looking for:
Suggestions on juice mixing techniques (ratio between VG and PG) for bigger clouds and flavour
Mechanical Mod Configurations (on offer for private purchase)

Che Guava from Craft Vapour is a lovely juice indeed! I like it too.
All the best and enjoy your stay.

Welcome @Robin Cilliers , @Heizenvape , @Daniel Alves and @Jack .
It sound like you are all kitted out and well on your way already, so I hope you guys enjoy your stay. There is plenty of info and lots of helpful people around, and new contributions are always welcome

@Heizenvape , you might want to look at the DIY section @ http://www.ecigssa.co.za/forums/diy-liquid-mixing-vg-and-pg/ and perhaps specifically the http://www.ecigssa.co.za/diy-your-first-time.t7324/ thread ( Why not stickied ? ).
There are plenty of good DIY mixes and ideas that are shared in there. No matter what flavor profile you like, there should be something, or at least a reference or external link to where you can find it.

Hi Guys,
My name is Roy Pretorius and I am from the Cape.
I had stopped smoking for 3 years when I decided to vape because I love the smell and taste.
My daughter had stopped vaping and went back to the stinkers (cigarettes), so I used her e cig for a while.
I got her to leave smoking and she is also vaping happily. She says that it is now a pleasure because I mix and and dilute the nicotine levels for her.

 

[Kuhlkatz]

Welcome @Roy Pretorius .
Nice job on getting your daughter back to vaping! I hope you enjoy the stay.

Just out of curiosity, I looked on Google maps where Richwood is and what do I see ? Complex Chaos Vapes, about 8 kms away.
If that was me, I'd definitely be vaping on some Cinnamon Cookie right now... Now I'm seriously jealous ( and out of stock ).

Hey Everyone!

Pumped to be part of this community. Smoked for 10 years.

A friend bought me an iStick 50W and a Bellus RTA out of the blue one day. I guess he was looking to spread some vaping love. Well it worked and I have been off analogues for a little over a month now and felling amazing!

Looking to convince my fiance to quit smoking now too. She seems interested

Most welcome to the forum. Congrats on the month plus off the stinkies. You have done the hard yards and your taste buds are probably starting to recover. Kudos to your friend and good luck with the fiancee. Happy vaping.

Big congrats on being off the stinkies for a month! Great achievement. You are over the difficult part
Wow, iStick50 and Bellus as your vape. Must have been quite amazing to go from stinkies to that!
All the best and enjoy your stay here.

If at first you don't succeed, then maybe SkyDiving is not your thing. For most of the other stuff however, there is no possible reason why not to attempt it again
I overheard one of the mixologists saying that one of their DIY clients failed making even a recipe that is quite difficult to screw up. It uses only one flavor at 8%. He's given up on making it himself and it's still one of the their top sellers despite the fact that it's easily reproducible.

There are definitely some good tips there, so hang in there and good luck.

Hey Vapsters!
My name is Shelley, been off the stinkies for 6 weeks now, never thought I would say that coz I enjoyED smoking so much. I will never go back, im an obsessed vape addict! I'm in the beauty industry in the south of Johannesburg and since I chain vape, everyone asks what the hell is always in my hand! Been advocating vaping to everyone like its the discovery of electricity. After trying the Twisp Solo, then the Edge I was on my way to buy the Aero, this whole new (to me) world of Vaping opened. I'm using the Kangatech subox mini rebuilding and trying every juice I can get my hands on. I'm on my way to Kieran on my lunch break today to buy a client and my mother a device and as much juice as I can afford. Trying to resist device envy and limit myself to only getting some Clapton coils to tryout.
I love vaping and I love this forum!
