hi all
ive just started vaping 5 days ago to be exact. am really excited to get some quality ejuice and try them out as well as upgrading to a better ecig.

 

hi all the new people welcome to avf. don't be afraid to ask questions. the only silly question is the one that goes unasked

 

Welcome everyone, be sure to PM noe if you have any questions.

 

hi all,
I'm 57, live in Melbourne.
started vaping 4 weeks ago, quit the smokes just over 3 weeks ago.
(been smoking since 1972 when I was in the Navy, thats 40+ years)

its been plus, plus, plus ever since.

besides the health benefits (not smoking tobacco)
I love being able to have a couple of drags
like when going from the shops to the car
(the wife hated waiting for me to finish a cigarette).

the cost savings will be great
especially after more price hikes for tobacco soon to be annouced.

Followed Alegria's suggestions
and bought an ego-c twist starter kit
and since bought more batteries and evods and another starter kit today.

so will have 3x650mah twists and 3x1000mah and 20 evods (2 of each colour)
and 2 chargers

when all the orders come in I'll have 600ml of juice as well.
Should last a few months and pay back the costs so far.

started with soulblu.co.nz (2 days delivery)
then some from fasttech (since thrown out 5 of 8)
then theplumeroom and a sampler from indigovapor on order.

I still stick to my smoking routine,
and only vape where I would've smoked,
so I'm in my shed vaping away.

All round its been great.
Like I said, its just plus, plus, plus.

And as far as politics goes, keep vaping out of it.
this is great and I don't want it changed.

 

Dave looking back on it now, it was mad that you could buy a carton of smokes with lose change from your farta. Never went without a smokes be.comse of cost, there was none, well hardly.

 

I remember back in 1972, buying smokes from the canteen in the navy for 50 cents or so (Officer training school, but only lasted 2 years)
and then when we went out on the ships for training we could get them duty free, 20 cents a pack.

 

Yep, mad wasn't it. Can still remember sorting through the rack and coming up with enough random lose change to buy a carton for a couple of bucks. Mad....

 

Welcome new people, make your selves at home

 

A big vaping Dalek welcome to all the newbies

Word.......in da house!!!!

 

Welcome new vapers.

This is a re-post but I like to keep it easy to find for new vapers or potential new vapers, be.comse it helps if you know what you need to get started.

IMO what you want for your initial order is a 1-stop-shop, where you can get everything you need in 1 order.
Regardless of what you decide to order, this makes things very simple & means everything arrives at the same time, so you can get into it immediately you open it(well almost, make sure the batts are charged first).

For the same reason I recommend Health Cabin for first orders, they have a large range of products, they ship reliably(choose EMS shipping & you will usually have you goods in a week, 2 at most), their customer service is very good & their prices are good too. Plus they have everything you need, including nic juice to get you started.

I think the best solution for a new vaper is an entry level device, which will serve as a back up should you have problems with your mod later on, like these kits:
eGo K Vision Compact Kit V2 in 30 styles [02-F] - $18.99 : Healthcabin Electronic Cigarettes - Wholesale and Retail two of these kits will have, 2 chargers( a spare in case one fails) 2 clearomisers & 2 batteries, all you really need to start vaping minus the juice.
Next you will want some juice my recommendation is 10x 10ml, 18mg/ml, pre-mixed juices in various flavors:
Dekang E-juice/E-liquid for Ecigarette
or
HC E-Juice/E-Liquid : Healthcabin Electronic Cigarettes - Wholesale and Retail
Then also get some unflavored nic in 36mg/ml, 75/25 PG/VG, which you can mix later with canuk made doublers, so 1 or 2 x 115ml bottles:
115ml HC Unflavored E-liquid [Z8 HC Unflavored 115ml] - $11.00 : Healthcabin Electronic Cigarettes - Wholesale and Retail

If you want to stop there, you can & will be able to start vaping with just what is above or if you want to try different clearomisers/tanks etc then these are some good ones to try:
3.5ml Ismoka BCC(Bottom Coil Changeable) Mega Clear Cartomizer [03-3A-4321] - $11.00 : Healthcabin Electronic Cigarettes - Wholesale and Retail
5pc New CE3 Bottom Coil 510 Clearomizers [05-C-12] - $10.50 : Healthcabin Electronic Cigarettes - Wholesale and Retail
Innokin iClear 30 Dual Coil Clearomizer with replaceable coil (Crystal Gift Box) [05-H-3-2] - $10.00 : Healthcabin Electronic Cigarettes - Wholesale and Retail
Vision eGo Clearomizer V3 (Exchangeable & Detachable)

While not an absolute "must have" these come in handy sometimes for your eGo type batteries:
500mA USB Power Adapter/Charger (US/EU/UK.com plug) [05-A-2-2] - $3.50 : Healthcabin Electronic Cigarettes - Wholesale and Retail
A bottle of PG & a bottle of VG will come in handy if you need to dilute your juice later on & it is cheap to grab a bottle of each at the same time:
115ml PROPYLENE GLYCOL USP(PG) [Z4 115ml PG] - $3.50 : Healthcabin Electronic Cigarettes - Wholesale and Retail
115ml Vegetable Glycerin USP (VG) [Z4 115ml VG] - $3.50 : Healthcabin Electronic Cigarettes - Wholesale and Retail
Some empty mixing bottles will also come in handy, perhaps 4x 30ml & 4x 10ml to start with:
Empty Ejuice Bottle(childproof) [06-D-23] - $0.25 : Healthcabin Electronic Cigarettes - Wholesale and Retail
A syringe is also a good idea to grab for measuring liquids & refilling some kinds of clearos etc, I would grab one of each size:
E-juice Injector(1ml 2.5ml 5ml 10ml) Ejuice Injector /syringe [06-D-1-1] - $0.25 : Healthcabin Electronic Cigarettes - Wholesale and Retail
You will also want blunt tipped needles for your syringes, 4 of these, Long(XL) type:
Blunt needle for syringe [05-D-2-1] - $0.15 : Healthcabin Electronic Cigarettes - Wholesale and Retail

I DO NOT recommend v2cigs, overpriced, cigalikes for anyone!
If you want a cigalike, HealthCabin also stock them, look for a 510 manual starter kit. It will be much cheaper & perform the same as the more expensive V2cig kit but these will not work anywhere near as well as the gear I listed above.
If you decide you still want a cigalike & get the 510 kit, I recommend using these to put your juice in for vaping:
5pc New CE3 Bottom Coil 510 Clearomizers [05-C-12] - $10.50 : Healthcabin Electronic Cigarettes - Wholesale and Retail

 

Hey All,
Just about to make the transition from Analogues to Ecigs after i guess 20+ years of pack a day smoking. Even though i still enjoy them i think the prices now are just becoming to hard to justify....so its either grow your own or take the bull by the horns and quit. And so here i am making the healthy decision, and ive got to say the whole vaping community has got me intrigued...
This sounds like something i could thoroughly enjoy, especially after seeing the b.comtiful pieces of hardware on the shinies thread i cant wait to get myself some gold brass stainless steampunk vaporisers mods...(still working on the jargon) but as a first step ive ordered a couple of starter kits from VapeBar and a bunch of ejuices, and im about to pull the trigger on some Nic juice from O/S guess i will try Noe's recommendation and try HealthCabin for that.
Also would like to give a ty to the Pie and Jen over at canadan Vapers on FB who made gave me the nudge to come here and Introduce myself...i do enjoy lurking lol

 

Welcome to Vape.to

While at health cabin I highly recommend picking up a 5 pack of these: 5pc New CE3 Bottom Coil 510 Clearomizers [05-C-12] - $10.50 : Healthcabin Electronic Cigarettes - Wholesale and Retail
IMO they are one of the best clearos around.

 

Cheers Noe,
Just added $150 worth of all the other basic bits n bobs i dont have yet from Health cabin....so now to play stalk the postie game
