So The Road Begins

Awesome @kimbo
Well done
Hoping it goes well for you with the ulcers

PS - That mix you made sounds very interesting
 
7 Day report, well almost 7 day's

I am not completely of the pipe as yet, i still light it once a day but this morning i realized that it is not a craving i fulfill it is more of saying good-buy to an old friend. Well can't really call it a friend but i am very sure @johan will understand

Can't wait to see what @TylerD is cooking up with that pipe mod of his but i am patient :)

So far the vaping is treating me very well, well apart from the fact that i am still looking for my ADV. Last night i mixed Deluxe Tobacco with a few drops of Vanilla for the roundness and just a drop of cherry for that sweet aftertaste, this seems to work but now i have the problem of recreating that taste lol

Again, and i know by now it is getting "hol rug" Thank You to all the people helping me with this road of mine. I will give the vaping another week just to see about the ulcers and if all is still good i will post on FB and my site and some Behcets forums i know.

AANHOUER WEN! Yip I know exactly what you mean with "Old Friend" - will see @TylerD this weekend and discuss and exchange some pipe ideas - I need to replicate/clone my "old Friend" ;)
 
@johan i got a Keyser from my dad about three years ago. If you can replicate that look and feel i think you will covert allot of pipe smokers

Happy to see things working out well for you @kimbo
Keep it up

I saw lip ice was mentioned before, I'd actually recommend Softlips. It's more expensive, but I use it regularly and only buy a new one every 3 or 4 months. Don't let its size fool you. You don't have to use nearly as much, it spreads better and moisturises more effectively.

Nothing beats a Keyser feel in the hand, balance of the bowl is just 100% correct.
 
Morning

Well it is the morning of the seventh day vaping and all is good :)

I am very happy for all the juice i was send from all you wonderful people, but the search is still going on for the elusive ADV ;)

Request to @Gizmo and @Stroodlepuff .. i hear so much about your juice. I understand you can't go out and give the stuff away it is your income. Cant you make up like a 5 or 10 x 3ml test our e-juice for x amount so that we that cant come to the meet also taste your work.

Maybe put that on your site at the E-sig starter page as a option for new converts who dont know were to start with juice like me :)

We are busy working on sample packs :) Have you signed up for the taste box? It is a great way to sample all kinds of juices
 
@kimbo it will work but bear in mind that a lot of things you buy on Fasttech are a gamble unless someone has can vouch for it... a lot of the stuff I have bought that hasn't been recommended have ended up in the bin. If you are bored and want to play I suggest you rather buy a Kayfun Lite... a much better option!
 
hi @Rob Fisher lolol no not buying, the whole idea of a dripper just fascinates me with me still looking for that ADV

I know the Spinner is not really a battery you can use on a Rebuild so i saw this small one and just wondered if it might work

If you are after a dripper then you want the IGO-L. @Silver recommends it big time! I've also battled to try and find a device that I can test juices in... I don't want to contaminate my REO's so I keep using my mPT3's and Nautilus's but they are a pain to clean and the coils are always an issue to clean for me.

I have just ordered a coupe of IGO-L from www.vapesa.co.za today.

Have you tried Vapour Mountain Menthol Ice yet? Do you like Menthol?

I will vape it, but i cant say i like it a lot. I am more into sweet tobacco flavor i wanna try VM4 :)

BTW what did those cost and will it work on the spinner?

At the moment i am also with a 16D and mPT2 that i have juice in but like you said it is a pain to clean

The Spinner is not really suitable for a rebuildable. It will work on it, but only at higher ohms. If you go too low you run the risk of damaging the Spinner, or, if the Spinner has protections built in, not firing at all. RBAs are ideal on mechanical mods or the higher powered electronic mods.
 
Morning @Matthee

Thank you

Like i said i was just bored last night and looking at small drippers and thought about getting one that will work without me getting a new battery

lol the bug is getting closer showing it's teeth, but i kicked it away for now.
 
Glad its going well for you @kimbo

Yes, the iGO-L is a great simple dripper device
Easy to set up and configure and has performed well for me over many months and still going strong.

Its amazing how @Rob Fisher quotes me as the recommender of the IGO-L. Yes I did recommend it to him but @Matthee was the one who first recommended it to me. And his advice was spot on.

I agree with @Matthee, dont use it on a Spinner, you will need something with more power and less limitations. I have used mine very well on the SVD. And its nice when tasting the new juices to be able to vary the power to find the sweet spot. SVD goes up to 15 Watts and I have tasted many new juices on this combo. Works well when you get the coil right. But thats not difficult at all. If I really like a juice then it can go into a tank like @Rob Fisher suggested. But with the correct set up, i get just as good flavour and throat hit on my IGO-L as on my REO
 
Morning @Silver, thank you

Ok so i will have to get a new battery to run a dripper, thought i will get away with just getting a small dripper some wire and wick for under $20 to get me started and save up for a mod to get later

I use my igo-l more than my trident. Gives me more flavour.

Morning all

Well well my fist 24hours without a smoke in +20 years and all tx to you amazing people, Thank you
I am working on my post for the Behcets groups i know to inform them about the pros in starting to vape and quitting smoking

Observation: Don't really go out and look for your ADV within the fist week. My taste changed and for me now Casters Last Stand is very nice, been on it for two days now :)
 
Congrats @kimbo
You are doing great!!!
And i agree with you that one's taste does change a lot, especially in the first month or two during the transition phase from stinkies to vaping.

It also has to do with the equipment one uses. As one advances, most of us typically get more advanced equipment with higher power and we go the rebuildable route. Juices taste a bit different. Some taste very different.

All the best
