After lurking on here for the last three weeks, I decided I'd better register should I feel the need to ask questions, as is my wont.

I've been smoke-free for six weeks today and am enjoying my new hobby immensely, although I know there is potential for it to be a lot better.

I started with a clearomiser and a couple of small batteries I got from a local shop, and bought a couple of bigger batteries to help me along.

Once the clearomiser was irreparably gunked up, I bought some DC carts on a mate's recommendation but don't like the slow filling process, the difference in taste and not really having any idea how much juice is in them, so I've ticked them off my list.

I'm currently using a 6ml DCT which is better, but find it too big and don't like the idea of having to keep buying new carts, as my primary reason for giving up smoking was cost and if I can save money then I intend to do so.

Having finally got my head around all the various 'izers' that are available, I've concluded that I like tank systems, and imagine my delight when doing lots and lots of research, almost exclusively on here, that not only do some tank systems come with replaceable atomizers, but not only are they replaceable, they're also rebuildable. How cool is that?

I've not actually got anything to rebuild yet, but I do have ten metres of Kanthal, ten metres of silver wire and ten metres of cotton wick, ready for my purchase this week of several Vivi and Mini Novas, which I've decided are going to be my pv of choice for the next few months.

I've started mixing my own juice in the last two werks as I see this as the biggest money-saver of all, and love the idea of making whatever I want at whatever strength I want, although it would be fair to say I'm still in experimental mode, even with single flavours.

I'm trying to tell myself that all this initial outlay is worth it as I'll only have to buy my base ingredients for juice going forwards so costs will drop off as time goes on, but then I look at some of the lovely shiny things in the reviews and on the vendors' sites, and I wonder how much money I'm actually going to save, which I'm sure you can all identify with...


Anyway, that's me, so thanks for reading if you've made it this far and I look forward to contributing, mostly by asking copious questions, to this excellent forum, which has truly captured my attention to a point where I've become a little over-enthusiastic towards vaping. My wife will verify this.
