Hi Everyone!

I think I might have had a membership here a long time ago, but for the life of me I can't remember my login so I created a new one. I started vaping in 2008 after failing umpteen millions of time to quit using traditional methods. I found out about vaping purely by accident while web surfing one day, and the advertisement made me sit bolt upright in my chair.

I didn't go all in right away and was glad I decided to wait because I discovered that what I had been looking at was a cig-a-like and not an e-cig that there were much better products on the market to be had. I finally found a device, an eGo, that I thought would work for me and I eagerly bought my tobacco flavored juice along with my kit because that's what I thought I was supposed to get.

That was one disappointing moment in my life.

I had found several forums by that time and I went on one to complain about the taste and wonder out loud how anyone could stomach anything so awful - and why were people snickering behind their hands?! They were all but saying, "The poor noob."

Finally, a very nice lady introduced me to the concept of flavored e-juice and she even took it one step farther. She sent me several samples from her own collection and when I got those flavors I almost fell out of my chair. NOW I understood. That was the first time I quit smoking using vape.

Devastatingly, I ended up having to dispose of my entire collection because mold was discovered in my home and I could not risk inhaling the spores. I ended up getting depressed and I ended up smoking again and was feeling fatalistic and sorry for myself until this year. I snapped out of it. I went out and bought myself a cheapo kit from the gas station, threw out the smokes and went online to explore the different devices and catch up on the lingo.

I am so happy to be back and smoke free since July 27, and it looks like I made it just in time!

Yeah, I'm playing catch me up, but I am enjoying every minute of it. I have three shopping carts I am waiting to check out. After that, I might feel a little less insane. I am replacing my DIY juice kit. I got a couple of nice little mods. Those will keep me happy while i am looking for a few more before the dreaded TMPA ball drops. And then coils, coils and more coils and tanks, tanks, tanks!!! And other stuff nipped in here and there.

i personally would stock up on freebase Nic if you can for your diy ... Some good RDA's and RTA's maybe some wire and cotton just in case...

Welcome :D
That looks like a Geekvape Nova you have there which should work out rather splendidly. At least until you've been hanging around here for a while and have 20 more.

Are you by any chance from Montana? There's a reason I'm asking.

That is the plan. I am getting as much as I can get before the bomb goes off. I just bought a bunch of cotton. More nic and more RDA/RTAs, and a decent wire kit are all coming soon - and of course, more mods.
