Hello, and thanks to Erme on MSE who encouraged me to join

Very excited to be getting into e-cigs/vaping. Ordered eShisha Club Hypernova a week or so ago, and the flavours and customer service are incredible, but I've discovered my smoking needs are stronger ... today using 2 batteries at once, a 12mg tobacco and a 6mg flavour, to get anywhere near nicotine level need. Kit is perfect for lighter smokers, but I'm also finding recharging batteries and swapping refills all the time difficult. eShisha were kind in offering I could trial another product, the Stellar Apollo vapour pen, which has 18mg flavours (have totally gone off tobacco taste, but still having to have some roll ups while find right products ... up to 25 Old Holborn a day usually). I've just contacted eShisha, and also ordered a very powerful battery vaping pen (eGo II Lumia Edition 2200mAh) and some 24mg juices, from JooseJuice and LT, incase the 18mg still isn't enough. I adore the eShisha Club flavours, so really hope to continue with them, as well as get the higher nicotine alongside via the eGo ... thanks again to those posting on MSE, who said it's possible to use glycerine to slightly water down higher nicotine levels, if need be. Great to be learning so much. 

Amazing how fast I'm desperate to never taste or smell tobacco again, lol, plus already breathing easier and throat not 'squeaking' any more. Thanks that this forum is here, to meet others who vape, and learn/share along the way. 

Kind regards, Cat

Welcome to you kittyvape.

You should find a higher strength eliquid helps curb the nicotine cravings better . . . I'd also recommend a Variable Voltage/Wattage device of some description, the ability to change the settings you vape at, is a huge help and helps mimic the smoking sensation considerably better.

Eleaf iSticks are used and enjoyed by many of us, the battery run is brilliant from them:

Thanks Roscopecotrain and dr00g Great to be here and meet everyone. I forgot to ask in original post, but has anyone here used the eGo 2200mAh? Hoping it arrives today, as well as the juice, as so want to leave cigs behind, plus full nicotine fix, lol

Thanks Perpetua  . Yes, am really looking forward to the stronger eliquid. Coincidence, as I was watching a vid on Youtube yesterday re the iStick. Will bear that in mind. How long do you find the iStick battery lasts? The eGo 2200mAh is said to last 2-3 days; it'll be heaven not to be charging up things every 2 hours, lol.

Depends how much you vape really kittyvape . . . an iStick lasts me a couple of days, of heavy but not exclusive use. My friend who is a light vaper has charged theirs 4 times I think since Christmas.

Although that's not completely exclusive use either.

Wow, 4 times since Christmas! Good you get 2 days out of it. I'd be perfectly happy with that. Just reading up on it, and it certainly looks good, plus the 30W is out, plus have just seen there's an iStick 50w. Getting tempting, lol. What is the usual (and not too pricey) clearomiser that's best to use with it, and how often do you need to replace it?

Haven't used it myself but if you've been using the eShisha device then you're in for a treat you'll find the eGo One produces a lot more vapour with a looser easier draw, of course the extra vapour production will come at a cost in the sense it'll use more liquid.
You might also find particularly with the 0.5ohm coil head that the stronger nicotine liquid might be a bit harsh on the throat, it's not really noticeable in the type of device you've been using before but the higher the nicotine strength the harsher the vape will be on the throat, you will notice it with sub ohm tanks like the eGo One uses.

If you find you like the type of vape you get from the eGo One mod then i would suggest the Smok VCT to go with the iStick 30 or iStick 50.

Sorry I didn't include the link ... PINK GS eGo II Lumia Edition 2200mAh Rechargeable. Can't find much online about them, but I definitely look forward to much more vapour. Wasn't sure about the hit, so got some 50/50 30mls (incl cappuccino at 24mg) and some smaller samples, which hopefully arrive today ... one or two other percentages in that lot too, lol. Now I'm here, no more random shopping, lol.  zrunningamokWhat do you find you use percentage-wise?

Lol, hiya sydsut and thank you very much for your welcome. Great to be here, appreciate advice, and look forward to knowing stuff, then I can share it, haha. You're right ... going to need to go out busking (earplugs provided), sell on Etsy, and be Ebay's greatest seller, at this rate.
