Talk to me about E-Cigarettes...

[Cue]

Wife is trying the ecigs again soon. Tried them twice before but the annoyances involved with coils, etc became a right pain.

A friend has handed down a vape with a lot less things to fiddle with, so when the snow clears we’re going to head into town and see what she fancies from Green Dog.

Fingers crossed this will be the time! The cat really doesn’t like her smoking, sits at the door meowing at her to come back in whenever she goes out for one.

Myself and the wife are currently vaping the stuff from www.onepoundeliquid.com
Don't let the name fool you - I've vaped all sorts in the past and this stuff is awesome! It's fully TPD compliant, and has a decent amount of VG so it's a lovely smooth vape. We're addicted to the Strawberry Milkshake flavour (not that I expected to like it) as it's not to sharp on flavour and we can vape it without it becoming sickly.
Started again around a week ago.
Me = 40 rollups a day down to about 5 or 6
Wife = 20 cigarettes a day down to between 1 and 3

Tell her good luck!!!!

Wow that's cheap , I generally avoid cheap liquids but since you recommend , I might actually order a couple.
I can't get on with smooth fruity flavours , I feel like I'm not getting that 'hit' . I generally stick to flavours with a little menthol/aniseed.
Have you tried wick liquor-deja voodoo ?

Do these actually taste of the flavours they say @wmrcomputers ?
I've been vaping all year and doing really well. I went from smoking 20 cigarettes a day to 18mg liquid and now down to 6mg. But I can't find a single flavour I like! I think I might have vapers tongue but I've tried every bit of advice and all liquids taste horrible still.

They do indeed, but I will give a little advice based on my own findings....

1. Vaping anything over 3mg nic strength starts to adjust the flavours. I prefer to vape double the amount of 3mg than I would 6mg as I find the flavours start to become a bit "tangy". It seems to affect some flavours more than others.
2. VG & PG percentages also affect flavour delivery.
3. Different vaping devices seem to make the same fluid taste totally different to others.
4. Over-using coils starts to affect flavour.
5. With devices that have adjustable batteries it's finding the perfect sweet-spot too.
In summary, it's more about finding a combination of device and liquid that you can settle with. Also, sometimes I find that the flavours you really enjoy aren't vapeable all day long without getting sickly. Sometimes it's about finding a flavour and strength you don't dislike rather than hoping to find a flavour you love.

My eldest lad has been vaping sub ohm / huge battery / cloud chasing stuff for a couple of years and I've just introduced him to the lower cost / less hassle stuff that I'm using and he loves it. He mixes his own liquids and is continuing to do so, but he says they taste better now that he's not cloud chasing. However, there will be plenty of people that argue the case the other way around. Bit of a minefield really, isn't it?!

 

[wmrcomputers]

@Jade-clothing I also forgot to say that eating anything sweet before vaping ruins the sweeter flavours - just like eating a chocolate bar before drinking a coffee with 2 sugars - you don't taste the sugar in your drink. If you vape alot, try to drink more than usual and it seems to help the taste. I have to have a coffee on the go if I'm heavily vaping.

I haven't, Alee. I'm so happy with the liquids were now using though, I don't even wish to start trying anything else incase I lose my flow.... we're getting on so well with it all again.
I have previously found that there are some really nasty variations of menthol liquids. However, not tried them yet with onepoundeliquid.com - I will put some on my next order. If it's minty without making your eyes water and cool without being ICE cool then I'd be in heaven. Might have to slip on over to their site now and get an order in.

 

[wmrcomputers]

Flavours we've tried from them so far are...
Strawberry Milkshake - Lovely at 3mg, okay at 6mg, anythiing above doesn't taste right at all.
Strawberry - Very strawberry indeed but again watch out for the higher strengths.
Cherry - VERY cherry and still tastes so at higher nic strenghths such as 18mg. However I find it's an over-potent flavour so couldn't vape it all day personally.

The Strawberry milkshake was an initial purchase for my wife to try and we both killed the bottle between us in 2 days. Immediately went back online and ordered another 8 bottles! That was a week or so ago and haven't tried another flavour since.

Thanks @wmrcomputers I'll try 3mg strength then and see if that helps - it's the only thing I haven't tried.
I think my set up is ok, I've got a Cool fire IV and using Aspire nautilus tank. Change my coils every 10 - 14 days. I was a bit wary to buy yet more juice I might not like as I've got 10 - 15 bottles I've never used! I'll buy a couple of the ones you recommend and see how I go.

 

[wmrcomputers]

At £1 a go, they're certainly worth a go. It's not much money to waste if you decide they're not for you.
Good luck!

Jesus, and I thought Passing clouds and Sobrani were a sophisticated taste of tobacco.

Already ordered three.

 

[wmrcomputers]

@Jade-clothing - how you getting on? Have you tried them yet?

I've just received another order, so to add to my list.....
CLOUD No 3 - Which is a blend of Vanilla, Coffee, Coconut & Cocoa. Quite smooth and certainly vapable, but I can taste the coconut slightly more than I'd have liked. If they had switched the coconut for caramel I'd probably be in vape heaven right now.

 

[Perrier]

been mixing my own for quite a while but at those prices i will grab a few myself for those times i just CBA

They haven't come yet! How long do they usually take?

@wmrcomputers they turned up! Cleaned my tank out, put a new coil in. That Strawberry milkshake is amazing! I can finally taste flavour and not just a horrible metallic taste. You don't get the throat hit with 3mg but it's worth it for a nicer flavour. Thanks so much for the recommendation. I wish I'd ordered more now as I doubt a second order would get here before Christmas.

 

[wmrcomputers]

You are most welcome @Jade-clothing !
The 3mg does lack throat hit, partly because of the higher VG content they use aswell. I would much prefer to be vaping 12mg, but I also think it's worth the sacrifice of vaping a larger amount of weaker nicotine strength in order for it to taste so good. To be honest you can adjust quickly to lower strengths as most of the addiction is the action of smoking in itself. I know people that vape zero nicotine, that are convinced it still satisfies their craving.

Anyway, glad you like it! Today I have tried their aniseed. Very nice, but after going through a tank full it's a little overpowering so I'll be back on the strawberry milkshake later - in fact scrap that, I've also got a bottle of apple to try too.

The tank on my aspire broke somehow last night and leaked all the juice into battery , it's dead now . Need to go buy another

I'm trying cherry and raspberry menthol today - it tastes just like Cherry flavoured Tunes cough sweets
