        Just don't feel vaping can be a real substitute - at least not for me...

        When I first tried e-cigs like Blu I also came to that conclusion, two years later this thread started and I decided to give it another go, I guess getting a better product is essential and liquids that have kick and tons of smoke/vapor helped to give me the full smoking sensation. 10 weeks now without a craving, I find vaping more satisfying actually.

          You say it can't be a real substitute, but you have vastly reduced your cigarette intake!! So keep it going and don't be disheartened, do it in your own time.

          As Pete says, depends on your liquid. When you find a keeper it's very difficult to pick up a cigarette.

          I think the EGO is still a good starting point for most people as it's cheap and gets you into the vaping scene. Why not try an EVOD atomizer on your EGO battery, Frederik? It's the same connection and the EVOD is a step-up in flavour, consistency and vapour. Only cost around $5-10 and then all you need to get are cheap replacement coils.

          Good work Rich, when you get the urge just have a vape and 10 mins later you will forget you ever needed a cigarette. ๐Ÿ‘

            Got my RY4 flavoured E-liquid delivered today.

            Certainly impressed; tobacco base flavour with a caramel undertone. Very very nice! I think I've found a keeper!

            It's a 70/30 PG/VG mix which is giving me a good cloud of vapour. Have a good weekend everybody.

              Ordered some other liquids to sample. I like the RY4 for a change but I can't use it as an all-day flavour, I'm more into the fruity liquids.

              Dekang Blueberry = 50/50 PG/VG mix http://www.inspiredvapers.com/dekang-blueberry-797-p.asp
              E-Juicy Fruit = 50/50 PG/VG mix http://www.vapistsvapours.co.uk/E-Juicy_Fruit/p1322261_9394474.aspx

              I'm really looking forward to the Juicy Fruit, it's supposed to be like Wrigley's Juicy Fruit chewing gum. ๐Ÿ˜„ will post a review when I get a delivery.

                    An interesting twist to mull over. I have it from deep within big tobacco, they already own and are acquiring more of the vape companies every day. In essence they are a nicotine delivery system that they want to control and see no conflict of interest.

                      For every company they acquire 10 more hit the scene so I'm not worrying. There are literally hundreds of emerging companies and dozens of devices, nothing to worry about. I just think the liquids will be taxed that's all and only because they are becoming so popular. I truly believe nobody will smoke tobacco in the future, so they are trying to get their feet under the table now while vaping is in its infancy.

                      And maybe they should have thought about producing a safe alternative to smoking before they gave millions of people cancer. ๐Ÿ˜„

                        E-Cigarettes have been on Sky News all day today. ๐Ÿ˜„ Good debate going on.

                        They are talking about regulating and testing the liquids in 2016. I entirely agree that liquids should be batch tested for the safety of consumers. Government spokesperson said that the testing will not make E-Liquids hard to buy or obtain, they just want to make things consistent between brands.

                        They still allow benzene, cyanide, potassium nitrate and formaldehyde in cigarettes though, along with thousands of other chemicals. ๐Ÿ˜’

                        Anyway, my Juicy Fruit flavour E-Liquid arrived today. WOW WOW WOW!! It tastes and smells EXACTLY like the chewing gum, it's my new favourite flavour as an all-day vape. Really impressed and perfect vapour production.

                        I totally recommend this to anyone and everyone!! I even left a review on the website it's that good. ๐Ÿ˜ I bought a 30ml bottle but will be getting the 50ml next time round!

                            It's OK.

                            Nicotine base liquid is already licensed and approved. PG and VG are not included in the changes, flavourings are not included. So you can buy everything individually, but not premixed unless it's been tested.

                            So absolutely nothing to stop me from DIY E-Liquid using ingredients I source myself. It really is not difficult and I have a DIY kit coming next week to get started. It's all approved, tested and safe.

                            The shop I buy from (C9V) already send their liquids away for independent testing so they are already complying with future regulations. The smaller vendors will be affected mostly because some of their profits will have to go into lab testing. Either that or they will increase the price slightly.

                            We should all get into DIY liquid eventually, it's as easy as making a cuppa tea and much cheaper than buying pre-mixed bottles. I was reluctant at first but it really is easy.

                                        Well done Walt, congrats!
                                        Now, buy some more juice because you'll need to change the taste from time to time. Don't forget to drink liquids more often, because vaping will give you a dry mouth feeling.
                                        When you'll be buying new coils , make sure you'll get the 1.8 ohms version, like the ones you have with the original kit!
                                        Good luck!

                                          So I've been looking for good deals on e juice and found this place. They have e juice base liquids in lots of sizes up to a gallon of base and more flavors I've seen on many sites.

                                            Wow a gallon of e liquid!!

                                            I would sample any liquid first before you buy a massive amount. You may get bored of the flavour or mixture quite quickly, try a few different mixes of VG/PG and find what suits you best. I think I've settled on 50/50 for my atomizer.

                                            I can't believe how cheap E-Liquids are in the states! ๐Ÿ˜†
