Another vaping newbie

[mikeb]

Hi beveryoddy, just to introduce myself.
I've smoked for 40 years then one day I walked into a shop and saw one of those blister packs,
 £20 for ce4, battery, usb charger and 10ml liquid so I thought 'why not?'

Been vaping for 10 weeks now and not touched cigs for 8 weeks.
I've spent about the same as if I was still smoking but I've got various bits of kit,
liquids and flavours. (enough for the next 3-4 months)
Bought 100ml of b&h 36mg (£15 including p&p) so I'm trying my own mixing using this as a base,
I'm diluting it down to about 20mg. and having fun. Found that a bit of menthol sorted any mix I wasn't keen on.
I'm now going to try rewicking as I've burnt out 4 coils since I started and replacing them could get a bit expensive in the long term.

Any way this seems a nice friendly place with lots people ready to help and also lots of useful links to suppliers
so I hope to be around for some time.
(could see myself spending a lot more if I'm not careful. )

Mike..

Hi Mikeb and welcome to the Forum.

[mikeb]

Thanks everybody for the welcome, I've just burnt out another coil on my Kanger t3 and only got 1 spare left so got to get into making my own
where's the best place for wire and wick?
I liked vaping so much the first time I tried it I went a bit overboard, checking out loads of sites and watching youtube vids and spending
way too much so now I need to economise.

.....Hmm that shiny Protank looks nice.....

Welcome Mike

I got my wick from cloud9, but they've gone part time. Liberty Flights maybe? www.liberty-flights.co.uk/product.asp?id=172

Hi Mike

Hi Mike welcome to the "family" I'm also going to try rewicking my Vivi novas this month. Not really for economical reasons but I have 4 vivi's and they all take slightly different attys, so figured it would be easier to do mine own than trying to explain to a vendor exactly what attys I need:-) let us know how you get on.

Hi Mike and welcome to the forum

Quite a few sites now sell wire and wick, it will certainly keep the costs down making your own wicks, maybe a little SS rebuildable would be handy as well
