Starters, the step to get over.

[doyouwannit]

Have you ever been distracted while smoking and with a mouthful of smoke done what I can only describe as mis-inhaled. That thing where it grabs your throat makes your eyes water and gives rise to an embarrassing coughing fit?

Well that was my step to get over with vaping. Over the past couple of years that had been the reason for dismissal of vaping. Every time I tried it I found it harsh and intensely irritating and I smoked roll ups. I now realise the problem was my hesitation, my reticence to inhale something that I was not familiar with. Every time resulting in a mis inhale and a coughing fit.

I came to a situation, in an airport with a baggage handlers strike, where I had no choice. It was either vape, I knew this action was pending hence buying the kit, or suffer withdrawal from nicotine. I went for it, the rest as they say is history. If you're going to try it, try it, don't hesitate don't half try it, it won't work. Go for it.

An illustration is a close friends wife, a smoker of over 50 years, I offered her a try of my device and the result was a mis inhale and a coughing fit over hesitancy was the problem. There are juices that I find harsh and unpleasant but tried with confidence they do not induce a coughing fit. If you want to try it try it with confidence. It won't kill you but if you can do it it will save you an awful lot of money, not to mention the health benefit.

it will also help a lot of people if they watched a beginners tutorial video on YouTube, several times I have spoken to people who have tried on different devices and make the same complaint (its harsh on the throat) because they chug on the pipe like there caning a tailor made with 30 seconds to get all of it gasped down without wasting that entire super king size they just sparked up ..... that might be how some people vape but from what I've seen they tend to be sub ohming at high wattage not pulling of a non adjustable ego stick with a multi ohm coil fitted ....

Good thread!!!

Vaping is so different to 'smoking' and most people that don't like it, don't like it due to mis-inhales

This thread should have been invented years ago!!!!

I have friends who use MTL tanks who are always jealous of the vapour production and flavour of my sub-ohm setup but they just can't get their heads around direct to lung hits.

I did this myself. When I had my Nautilus I was convinced I preferred MTL hits but as soon as I got used to lung hits oh boy was it rewarding!
