That’s very cool of you Cromwell!
Not a big expense. I Keep about 400-500 ml of Cromwells custard made at all times and have over 60 ml of Cromwells Camel made.
Costs me around $2 or less to make 120 ml.
Just need to know an address and how strong you want the nic.
You would actually be the first I have sent my galaxy wide famous juice to.
Have piffed out vape gear and flavorings but no made juice.
Sending out in a few days after the single digits, snow and Ice pass.Wow, PM incoming! You rock!
Yes I have this same problem about nic sensitivity also, but maybe not that severely. I never could vape anything stronger than 5mg. That is, excepting on a clearomizer/tank by sucking on it so hard that I remember thinking I might as well be breathing just air instead of vapor, like drinking coffee that's been diluted with 99% tap water. Sucking on it a bit less hard was not possible for me to do because then I would cough immediately as soon as I tried to inhale.It is for me a sensitivity to the nic. I do not want to step on the OP's thread so I will try to be brief. I have and use a og noisy cricket often. I have an avid lyfe tube. Regulated devices up to 300 watts with the right batteries. Rda's, rta's, and subohm tanks. I diy and do simple coil builds, paralell, twisted, and round. I have coils from zephyr also. I am capable to provide myself about any vape option. I am just sensitive to nic. I love vaping of all types and styles. I am getting better at diy and have a couple of imo very good recipies. I use Nude 100mg nic in pg. I have been blessed with several juices from pif and trades, also have a buddy that workes at a b&m. So I have access to many brands and flavors. So my options are wide open and I have been enjoying my vape going on 2 years now. I learned so much here at VU I am gteatfull to all for being part of this amazing forum. All being said I can not change the fact that I am sensitive to nic. Wish it was not true but it is the only possibility. I can tank a couple juices at 6 but not many. I can pod vape nic salt at 30 if I push to tolerate coughing violently for the first 10-15 pulls. Slowly my throat will "break in" and I can then pull somewhat comfortably. The next day my throat is painful and I need to start over. I can vape 3 comfortably all the time. So back to the patch idea. What does everyone think? Ideas, concerns, recomendations? Please. Peace and love to all. Sorry so long. Frustrated and need to put the smokes down completely. Thank you.
That's EXACTLY what I've been trying to say for the past 2 years. Which immediately explains why I've been used for a pissing pole by the low wattage police in just about every discussion thread that even barely touches this particular subject, and probably also explains why a lot of high wattage vapers don't even bother to post anything, as there's more interesting things to do in life than to get covered in vitriol all the time.DTL to me is a cooler more robust & fulfilling vape. Don't rule it out until you've tried it.
Just wanted to say that I've felt bad for lashing out at you like I did after your first post in this thread. It honestly didn't bother me too much that you joined this conversation by adamantly harping on about the virtues of DTL. I'll admit, I have little experience and am ignorant on that particular subject. What REALLY pissed me off at the time was how you ended by directly questioning my effort to succeed at this personal vape/quit cigs dilemma I'm going through -- and practically called me a liar. Believe me, I am trying. Anyway, Carambrda, I totally overreacted to your words and I apologize for it. You also deserve kudos for your latest reply to Bigrick at #106. I'm sure it took a lot of time & thought to write all that out in a sincere attempt to help him. I genuinely appreciate your contribution here and I bet he does too.That's EXACTLY what I've been trying to say for the past 2 years.

What gear and juice specs are you using for this loose MTL/restrcted DTL?With more open airflow, looser MTL, and, yes, even restricted DTL attempts (limited by my gear) ... it's getting a little bit easier for me every day. This is definitely not the type of enjoyable, natural or comfortable experience I was looking for. It's a lot of work and if I don't concentrate and inhale just perfectly now, I bust out in coughing fits which I'd never done before. But at least my mouth problems haven't been quite so bad lately.
The only things with adjustable airflow I have here now are two Nautilus AIO's, two GeekVape Flints, and a Nautilus 2s on Aspire Zelos mod. Even wide open, they're still basically MTL devices. I haven't been using any of my other simple cigalikes or basic pod devices or Nautilus Mini because I broke its glass tank and had to order another one.What gear and juice specs are you using for this loose MTL/restrcted DTL?
Just don't pull hard enough to cough and vape more if needed because of it. As you get used to it you'll be able to increase to a more satisfying vape.
…and since…Nautilus AIO's, two GeekVape Flints, and a Nautilus 2s on Aspire Zelos mod.
..perhaps a wider bore drip tip would help. It would keep the vapor from being so concentrated/localized to a spot in the mouth. I see the 2 kits you PIF’d were MTL w/small tips as well, and you have nothing with a wider bore tip, which goes with DTL > even if restricted. I know N2S has somewhat DTL function, but the tip is still narrow. If what you’re doing now doesn’t seem like it’s panning out, or as you get used to the new way to vape, it doesn’t give you..With more open airflow, looser MTL, and, yes, even restricted DTL attempts (limited by my gear) ... it's getting a little bit easier for me every day.
..could try the Zelos/2S w/ .4 - .7 BVC coil in the 2S with a wider bore tip that fits 510, like…the type of enjoyable, natural or comfortable experience
You can't imagine how truly appreciative I am to have you (and other VU'ers) going out of your way to share your experience & insightful suggestions for me. It's all pretty damn amazing!OK, you’re working with……and since…..perhaps a wider bore drip tip would help. It would keep the vapor from being so concentrated/localized to a spot in the mouth.

Or a diff tank on Zelos, like HellVape Hell Beast Hybrid that’s does DTL or MTL and uses it’s own coils as well as from at least 3 other manufacturers including BVC, Smok, Vaporesso.
I'm sure counting on saving $ by not buying as many Marlboros, hopefully none in the near future!

Wish I could come back to VU by announcing that I've truly become an "ex-smoker" but it's been an awful struggle these past few months. Honestly, I've smoked a lot more than I've vaped -- but I haven't given up trying.
The struggle is real. Many have been able to kick it straight away, and others like yourself and me struggle with it on a daily basis. One thing is for sure. I have not yet witnessed any act of discouragement here at VU. Most of the members understand the struggle all too well. They encourage rather than judge. I'm still full on into the battle with kicking the stinkies but I'm not willing to give up. Just participating in this forum continues to keep me in the fight. Don't give up.I hope it's OK to dredge up this old thread...
Really just wanted to log on and publicly give my sincere thanks to The Cromwell. It took a while, but his generous gift unexpectedly showed up here early last week and, man, it's GOOD STUFF!!! I've gone through a couple of pods each and am really enjoying it. Cromwell's Turkish reminds me of a full-flavored cigarette, only much better, and Cromwell's Custard rivals any of the other VCT's & custards I've tried.

Anyway, THANK YOU CROMWELL! You're a helluva good juice maker and a good man.
Peace & purrs,

It happens when it happens. Only count the cigs you didn't smoke not the ones you did. Seeing that number going up daily or weekly will keep you going. We'll be here for you! I'm looking forward to celebrating your quit day!I hope it's OK to dredge up this old thread...

My wife is a 2 pack a day menthol smoker. My vape even running a cool build at low watts makes her cough 90% of the time. Imo it is bcuz she still smokes. I know when i was just comming off cigs vaping tore me up. But that subsided within a month. Now cigs r harsh. Even the same roll my own i was on for years and years.Welcome @cathouse and I hope you enjoy you stay~!
When I first quit smoking which was Cold Turkey because cutting down didn't work for me I know that vaping irritated my throat and made me cough for the first few weeks. It is the lack of all those other chemicals that numb your airways and I have heard the same from people trying to quit and start vaping. Now I am not a Doctor and don't play one on the Internet this is just my personal experience. Give it time and Good Luck
You call that unfortunate?Unfortunately I have no experience with irritation in my mouth from vaping.
