Ok.Ive never been a cigarette smoker. But I came across a brand new VAPE left in bag on my hallways steps..( I live in a big building in Ny) so I had to be curious. Lol. I had to try this thing and it was delicious!!!
So I have a few questions. This was just 2 days ago. Is there a difference in the flavor and taste of the juice with or without nicotine? Why do some settings make me cough or make and burning feeling in my chest. I only tried 2 juices.1 with 1 without. And it seems the 1 without was sweeter and didn't make me cough. What I want to no is "Is it the settings of W. and the openin on the air vents ? I have the Arctic Horizon tech tank.
And thanks 4 any help! ! !

Wow... you have some generous neighbors!

Let me first start off with this... if you were never a cigarette smoker... I would stay away from the nicotine.
Yes.. there is a difference in flavor between settings, nic or no nic.
You'll simply need to experiment with different settings... start low... if you like that.. try it a little higher until you find YOUR sweet spot.
Vapers' Sweet spots are like fingerprints... no two are the same :)

IMHO, you should try to find who that gear belongs to as it is more than possible it belongs to someone that has been using it to try to keep away from smoking by using it.

And since you are a non smoker, probably not a good idea to be using a product that more than likely has nicotine in it.

So u mean low as in Watts. When I first turned it on.tje settings were on w.now they're in V.but the wattage is besides it.so low u mean like 2.0 settings is as low as it goes. It used to.go up to 50w on the lcdScreen .now its in V.-idk y or how to change it to the watt setting the way it was at first..
And it's not neihhbors..more like loiterers looking for a place to sit - in NYC that happens.. and its not a cell fone.so I can't return it...

I started with a istick 50 so its not unheard of. And I am a non smoker, though I smoked cigars every now and again. Im not gonna beat a dead horse but in the vast majority of apts I can image, a sign on some common area with general info about it "vape device" with your number seems fair to me. They can describe it exactly if its theirs. Someone paid good money for it, I know I'd hate to lose mine.

Hey Crystal Welcome ! That's a nice find lol. I live in Staten Island. If you are interested in vaping 0mg would be the choice for you. No need to put nicotine into your body if you didn't smoke. There's plenty of Vape Shops in NYC drop in on one and talk to them. Get a nice tank for it and try out some different flavors in the shop. Also they can give you some hands on instructions on how to use it. Vaping is a fun hobby and great for us ex smokers

Go without nicotine...trust me it's an addiction you don't want. It takes 72 hours for it to completely be out of your system and on the 3rd day it gives you a massive headache that you just want some to make it feel better.....although after the headache starts you can't get rid of it any quicker even if you use nicotine......

If you have a main area where all the tenants walk to or through such as a mailbox with mail slots or a community center or office or something like that. Posting a notice with a brief description of what you found and a contact phone number. You can have the owner call you and have them tell you the color of it so you know it was theirs.

I would start by posting something in the exact area where you found it.

Hope that helps!

I'm in Ny first off. Idk where u come from but there's no way I'm posting anything in my hallway for ppl that had no business here in the 1st place. That will just invite a few more loud annoying non considerate assholes that have no where to hang out to come in.My neighbors told me to throw it out ? Lol !!

I yea..first of its a stairway that isn't used. We use elavators... Noone is allowed to loiter and sit on the steps if u don't live here. This was someone who was doing what they couldn't do outside in the park if u no what I mean.. didn't belong here in the 1st place
I'm in an upscale building where that's no allowed. Ppl get robbed by these assholes.My neighbors said throw it out. So I'm just keeping it. Case closed... like I said I'd it was a cell phone I'd call and find the owner. Did it b4... but I can't post nothing anywhere for strangers that don't live here and had no business here. Tenant assoc.said no.

The tenant assoc.wont let me post anything in the hallway.i asked yesterday
They said to throw it out !! that's because they say it will be encouraging strangers to continue to hang out in here. It's no one's in the building .I asked around.. everyone knows... . Just wanted to tell u I tried
But this is a private building and I'm a new tenant and don't want to really even be known here. I mind my business .especially where I live. Thanks UncleRJ.

Because it costs 50 cents to make and isn't taxed. It's all marketing, retail, etc... You know pharmaceutical companies spend twice on advertising than on R&D...

I think I've heard of the one one bay street but I've never been to that one. Don't mind the negative posts either you'll always get them. How many ml was the bottle 15ml? $10.00 would be a good price. Depending on the brand. There's a lot of good online retailers that offer big discounts and and sales you just need to know what brand and flavor your looking for. We all have wasted a lot of money on stuff we didn't like. There's places where you can try the juices before you buy them. I can give you 3 locations on Staten Island that are pretty good. Life made easier on Hylan Blvd, The Carter Vaporium on Hylan Blvd, Then there's Planet of the Vapes. You can take the train and get off the Hugenot ave train stop and it's right there. That one is helpful and good and you wont have to walk at all.

Are those eliquids or flavor concentrates?
I haven't used Lorann Oils but my guess is those are concentrates and you might need to mix that with some pg/vg before vaping it.

These are concentrated flavorings. DON'T vape these. They're not eliquid. It's straight flavoring bases. Some use this brand to mix eliquid, some use them for candies and such.

Well I mean thats what a normal person would do in a normal neighborhood, but you have stated that since you live in NY the rules are different there apparently and that is fine. To each their own. Goodluck in your new vaping journey.

Take your time and get used to the forum. We all started somewhere. There are a bunch of areas where you can post and read information. You'll get the hang of it. You're fine.
