Hullo Vaping Peeps :)

Welcome

You will fit right in here, just hide your purse so that you can't find it

Oooh, so many welcomes! Thank you very much all Sorry I wasn't able to reply sooner.

Thank you for the congrats on abstaining from the stinkies for a day aswell, although it may have been a little premature lol I chugged along quite nicely to begin with, but pretty soon developed what I now know to be vaper's tongue. By the time I read about what was going on and what to try to sort it, I'd already smoked a fair few ciggies, so back to square one there.

I'm almost out of my favorite Dekang Mocha juice and don't yet have any more. I did buy an assortment of 6 lucky dip juices online at Vaporized, but I think a lot of them may be the ones that can crack the tanks I have so I haven't tried any yet. I also realised that the PG content may be too high for me, (they're all 80% PG 20% VG) as I'm coughing a lot when I first start vaping the mocha- sneezing too but I don't mind that so much lol. It's odd because smoking doesn't make me cough. It's the same sensation I got when I tried the NRT inhalator a year or two ago (one toke and I was coughing like crazy! Most embarrassing!) so I thought it was the nicotine content was too high. Now having read a bit more it seems more likely that the PG needs to be lower, not the nicotine. I intend to try varying both just to see what difference it makes. Waiting for joosejuice to come back from their holiday to browse through what they have, thanks for that suggestion lairey

I've not done very well over the last few days. When I tasted that burnt kinda taste I'd read about I thought it was time to clean or change something and have been trying to find out what to do, but I can't find very much info about the tanks I have. Been getting frustrated - and more confused lol Maybe you guys could shed some light? Like... what's the difference between a 'coil' and a 'head'? And which bits do you soak in hot water? I screwed off the black mouthpiece bit and found the post bit in the middle with the long wicks hanging down from it, took that out and swapped it for the one in the other tank, just so I could get vaping again and it appeared to work ok I think. But now I'm not sure what to do with the old bit. I pulled the wick part out a lil bit and it looks black. Is that actually burnt, or just gunked up? Can it be cleaned or do I need a new one now? And do you replace the wick itself or is it the whole post bit that needs replacing? Could anyone post a link to the type I need please?

Oh, and the other thing I'm getting confused about is ohms and resistance. I don't have the first clue about any of that and it's making understanding the whole thing even more confusing.

To try and counter all this confusion - and also to start taking the advice I see you guys posting elsewhere about getting back ups and replacements - I'm looking to get some more stuff. I've been reading about what you often suggest to others asking for advice and found this; myepack.co.uk/kits/mini-protank-2-kit.html It says it has ego threading on the tank so I'm guessing it will go with what I already have? The tank is smaller capacity to the Kanga T2, doesn't have the measurements on it and doesn't come in pretty colours but it does seem more popular with people and might be easier to get spare parts for without going mental! Plus it's on offer right now at myepack so seems like it might be good value? What do you think?

Another type of tank you guys seem to recommend a lot is this one : myepack.co.uk/clearomizers/iclear-16-dual-coil-clearmiser.html (I think!) but I'm not sure if it will go with the batteries I have. I've no clue about the dual coil bit either - is the liquid heated up at the bottom or the top? Both of these are the glass tank sort (is that right?) so I wouldn't have to worry about cracking anything?

To be honest, I've read so much in the last couple of days all the info is starting to get mixed up in my head and I'm not sure if I've learned anything at all! lol I will have to do something soon tho as I'm trying to make my last lil bit of mocha last and getting cranky in the process! lol

Thank you for all the help you give guys, I really appreciate having somewhere to ask all this stuff!

Take care

Hi
I cannot give any advise on kits etc as I still have no idea how it all works but you sound like you are going through exactly what I was going through my first week of vaping, was very close to giving up but then got some juice from joosejuice, changed everything for me.

I was having a really bad reaction to high pg juices, sore throat, coughing, vapers tongue and a itchy rash on my arms Order a few samples of 50%pg/50%vg 18mg from joocejuice, wow what a difference it's made, the soft mint flavour is so smooth on your throat.

Hope this helps, good luck

Ohh that does sound like good advice kiwi. I have dermatitis and it's felt like it was getting worse the last week or so - wonder if the high PG might have something to do with that too? Definitely worth a shot at some 50/50 juice I think!

Thanks so much for your help

My skin really flared up, think it was a combination of toxins coming out of my body from stopping smoking and the high PG levels.

Well done on changing wicks etc, I just buy the clearomizers you fill up, then throw away when they stop working.(so far they have lasted 3 weeks) Like you I think I overloaded on info and it will take me time to learn about coils/heads etc but the people on this site are really helpful

misst and

All good advice here so not much more i can add.
But do agree with chris you will need to hide your puse now & again.
And also when your browsing the site? you will come across this word from time to time, (Fasttech)
Best advice i can give at the moment is just to ignore it.
Fasttech is just a small vapeing site in china that has been known to throw up the odd Drip Tip, Shiney and anything useless (Squape) just to tempt us
to make a purchase, and fast they are not.

But i guess your not ready for that yet? But your kids are gonna love it

Hi the mini protank kit you linked to is a good little kit. I use protank mini's all the time. The heads and coil question is they are the same just different people call them differently. The protank mini has a replaceable coils very easy and instructions are on the box but it's just unscrew from battery unscrew the base (which is also where you fill them) unscrew the coil from the base and replace with a new one. They can be washed to make them last longer. It's also glass and a bottom coil atomiser. Joose juice is back from their break and I would suggest you get 60/40 pg/vg to try it will be much easier on you and with the protank mini being glass you can use any juice you fancy. The iclear 16's are polycarbonate so could crack but I know a lot of people love them personally I don't like them but that's just my preference. Hope this helps a bit but any more questions just ask.
