Any smokers here? Wanna quit?

Vape Porn!! I bought a cheap upgrade for my mother to congratulate her for being smoke-free for 12 months.
I really like the Protank2. It's by no means comparable to a Kayfun in terms of flavour but it really is a great clearomiser. The Pyrex glass gives it a great quality finish. I also bought a Protank 2 for myself as a backup to the old faithful Kayfun.
The SID is perfect for the price. Can't go wrong there! First device I've ever had with an OLED screen too!
Here is the Smoktech SID with a Kanger Protank 2 on top. Sorry about poor photo quality, I just used a mobile.
Happy Vaping guys!
And here is the Protank 2 on top of the Provari Mini. It actually suits the Provari very well. I also placed the Kayfun on the SID just to show what it looks like.
And finally my usual setup....Kayfun on either the Provari Mini or MVP V2. See how battered my Provari and Kayfun look after 12 months! :laugh: I have screwed the Protank 2 on the MVP in this photo just to show how it fits (very well).

I still haven't learned to like the smoke from these wapers...
I saw this animation the other day and will start practicing that instead...

@Frederik, that is quite a skill , reminds me to re-watch Seinfeld, still a good no brain series
@Olishea,
Besides the beveled top, a provari looks sweet and I like it's small form factor. The Kayfun seems to like it too , nice pictures. I like my Kayfun clones a lot , they are hassle free and consistent as opposed to clearos like errrr...protanks 1,2 or 3 , the heads seem to be hit and miss.I just bought a Touchwood handcrafted mechanical box mod . 18490 battery sรฎze.
Loving the feel of it and it vapes really well with that detonator style button.
Rocking it with the simple (and cheap) Igo-L dripping atomizer. Yummy -
Finally got me a rebuildable mod from TKO a chain of vape stores across US. It has a 2.2 amp atomizer and I'm trying to find a good voltage and amp setting as you can change both with this mod. Not really sure yet what does what as far as the settings go maybe someone can shed some light on the subject for me.
-
Walt, good job with the mod, it's a good choice. However, be careful with the firing button, it's the weakest part. I'm not saying it will fault, but it's the most common fail of this mod.
Regarding the way you can set this, I would recommend watts. Because, once you find "the sweet spot" for you, you don't need to adjust nothing any more, not even when you put another atomizer on the mod. It will give you the same vaping experience, with every hit you take. Start with 6 watts, then go up to 7,8 and so on, until you are satisfied.
Cheers,

There are some good Carto tanks on Fasttech, I personally love the X8 as it is small and has a screw to prevent the carto to slide out, very handy.
Concerning cartos, I am sticking to double punched Boge LR cartos.
All the others seem to lack needed airflow.
Cartos really are a more consistent vape than clearos imo.
The only hassle is filling carto tanks, such a mess lol -
Congrats Oli!

Yeah I also noticed that about the Protank coils/heads. Some of them last a couple of weeks while some fail after a few days. I was in a bar drinking when one failed, I nearly went home to get another coil!
So, after a brief stint using kanger protanks/BCC, I am back on the old faithful Kayfun. Only problem is, my filler valve is completely blocked, so I have to unscrew the top to fill which causes it to flood and lose some liquid. Think I need to buy a new Kayfun at some point, they've got rid of the filler valves on the side now.
I also found a great spearmint flavour that I use for my DIY liquid. It's not menthol, just smooth spearmint flavour. I like to add some to my Juicy Fruit chewing gum flavour. Yum yum!

well done Oli
I recently bought some Aspire BDC Vivi Nova's with glass tanks. They have an exterior metal sleeve (in assorted colours).....in certain light conditions, and especially with some of the clear liquids the two small and thin 'windows'are probably too small to see how much liquid is in the tank, but the vape is very good.

Looks nice Gareth! I'm jealous of your big batteries!

How are you getting on? I found the atomizer to be really good, it's the innokin iclear right? I had one as a freebie and I used it until it stopped working, just never got round to buying coils for it.
Still using up my EVOD coils; I have found these later version coils (with the extended chimney) are very hit and miss. I thought I was imagining it but other people have reported the same issues. Maybe they want them to fail quicker so you just buy more.
Think I'm gonna get another Kayfun. The filler valve on my current 3.1 ES is so annoying. My next one will be the Kayfun Lite Plus which has a filler port at the bottom that you just unscrew; I think The Russian 91 is also like this. In fact I think my Kayfun 3.1 ES has been discontinued for this very reason.
I also really like the look of the Luxe mod with Kayfun on top, but for now my Provari is more than adequate, I can't see a reason to change.

I saw this animation the other day and will start practicing that instead...I think it's a case of really wanting to quit as well. If you aren't ready I think you'll always prefer a cigarette. Whereas for me, I feel sick even thinking of smoking a cigarette. I know vaping will never be the same, but I've learnt to prefer it. Not just the flavours and cool gadgets, but the flexibility to just take a couple of drags here and there....especially while waiting for computer to render etc.
Which vape setup have you been using by the way? Could it just be you don't like the flavours? Or is the vapour too smooth or too harsh?
-
Thats a good point Oli.
Good equipment is important, but finding good vapes in the early stages pretty well sets up the path of interest and persistence.
I bought some absolutely crap nicotine liquids which took about 4 or 5 weeks to arrive, in the meantime I was vaping some quite nice non-nic liquids. Whilst I wasn't getting the nicotine hits I needed at that stage, I did find some pleasant flavours which I was then able to order from the US with nicotine in them.
For those who don't understand what I just said, in Australia we can't buy nicotine liquids from Australian suppliers, but they do however sell liquids made in the USA which are nicotine free. This gives us the opportunity to test those flavours and either buy them direct from the US supplier, or alternatively mix an unflavoured nicotine (which we also have to buy from overseas) with the liquids in Australia which can be bought as 'doublers'.
However, because we can't easily purchase liquids, one could easily be discouraged from persisting.

Hi Gareth,
I went through the same, starting with 0 mg nic juice (aaah..Australia ), and while waiting for nic juice from the States discovered some tasty flavours.
The anticipation of that together with the great testimonies in this thread made me so eager to quit smoking, that it all just happened spontaneously.It does make me wonder if I shouldn't go the 0 nic route again now and see what happens.
I believe I can do it, especially with the latest drippers out there with huge air holes (Trident etc...), zero nic might still be a very satisfying experience. -
Glad you are staying with it mate.
I still have one or two nice non-nic flavours from when I started in October and vape them occasionally. I can vape them for an hour or so, but I still want the 'nic kick' though...!
I'm still vaping 18mg and should probably try cutting down to 12mg soon.
Tried an analogue stinky a few days ago....took 3 drags of it....it was disgusting....!!
-
I did it, one year and counting, technically I did it on the 3rd (it's the 3rd in Australia so it counts)
I will never smoke again.

Well done Pete
How are your energy levels, sense of taste, general well being etc after 1 year...?
