        I went down to 3mg about 6 months ago, I don't really need much nicotine plus it's cheaper for me to make the juice.

        I got one of those EGO AIO too....good for out and about. ๐Ÿ˜„

        I've noticed lack of mouth-to-lung style vapes too. I tried the Endura T18 which is cheap and cheerful....can't fault it really. Great flavour. It does get tiring using sub ohm as it's hard to be discreet.

        For direct-lung sub ohm I'm still using Kanger Subtank on my Provari Radius, 0.5 ohm coil. It's hard to find a device that genuinely does both. I'm happy you can finally get a lung hit Stefan! ๐Ÿ˜Ž

        I do like sub ohm devices but I can't help but enjoy the throat hit you get from traditional plus-ohm vapes. It's closer to smoking IMO, with lung hits I seem to just keep vaping like a chimney; perhaps not very satisfying.

        Currently vaping my own homebrew.....Pinkman (Vapours R Us flavouring) and Veuve Red (a flavouring from EXTRADIY Paris). Yum yum!

        Veuve Red is very special for me; it has a unique floral taste when you first inhale and over time it develops into pure red berries, maybe even some sweet cranberry. I've never vaped anything else that tastes even remotely similar. I buy 20-30 bottles of concentrate at a time! ๐Ÿ˜„

        Pinkman is a strong tasting all day vape.....raspberry and blackcurrant, but quite indescribable maybe sherbet. I've tried three different "Pinkman" flavour concentrates and have found Vapours R Us do the best, also happens to be the cheapest. It costs hardly anything to make your own e-liquid it's almost free!

        Well done everyone, keep it up!

            These hand checks are very popular, yet annoying. I've got the IPV5 mod, I'm very happy with it. Solid, precise and really nice. It's quite heavy though.
            Vape on!

                I'm at the 3 year mark, chain vaping 6 mg.
                In the perfect world, I would not vape at all, but looking back to having smoked for 20 years, I'm really glad I left cigarettes.

                My current gear : Kayfun mini v3 on an Innokin Coolfire 4plus for vaping at home. For all other circumstances I use all-in-ones, my favourite is the I-stick Basic all-in-one box.

                Not into direct lung at all

                                I use a fruity flavour. I tried tobacco to begin with but found them kind of disgusting.

                                I get mine locally in Ireland. It's called Vampire Kiss and it is a Raspberry, Strawberry and Menthol mix.

                                I don't want to blow plumes of vapour so this suits me. Most shops let you sample flavours before you buy.

                                  Best advice I can give is to take a trip you your closest Vape store and hopefully there will be someone there that will give you good info like in my case. I was initially intimidated by all the jargon and complicated setups that some folks kept harping on about only to find they represented a small niche of the vape market like hot rod builders are for the car industry, most normal folk just want a Toyota Corolla that is efficient and reliable.

                                  The good thing about visiting a vape store is you get to sample liquids before buying, so allocate a little time to play and learn.

                                  I'll be 4 years cigarette free very soon.

                                    Same here. The guy in the shop warned me, but I didn't believe him.

                                    I learned really fast tobacco doesn't actually taste good.

                                      Well done guys! ๐Ÿ‘

                                      Got this thing recently, but not had much chance to use as the stock coil just keeps spurting in my mouth! The actual build quality feels great though, just need to sort out the weird coil. It's called an Ego Aio.

                                      I like really compact devices where the tank is adjacent to the battery. I had a Kanger Nebox but the quality is terrible. The Billet Box V4 looks cool too.

                                        I haven't had time to go to a vape place yet, so I picked up one of these Vuse e cigs https://prod.vusevapor.com/products/vibe I tried two different flavors today.

                                        I was doing a Home Show today and went 7 hours without a cig! Can't believe I did that!

                                        but, the Vuse gave me a big hit at the back of the throat, and made me cough after each hit, something regular cigs don't do.

                                        is that how most vapes are? Or is it this brand I tried?

                                        I am stoked I went 7 hours!

                                            Well done Joe. You need to get yourself a variable voltage/wattage mod. Then you can adjust the throat hit to your taste. In the meantime take smaller puffs!
