Hey All

Hey all,just a little intro about me. I was a 30 year smoker who had no plans on quiting. Until my daughter announced I was to become a grandfather! But,she wouldn't bring the baby in my house because of the smoke smell. I completely understood and started to really think about quiting for good this time.
I had tried vaping a few years ago. Had a couple of Siegeli box mods and did the sub-ohm vaping. I did that for awhile but was still smoking. I finally gave it up,could'nt afford to do both lol. I knew the ejuice that had nicotine was really harsh on my throat and was looking for something else. That's when I read about nic salts and the new pod systems. That got me really intrigued,I wanted to get something that was "close" to the shape of a cigarette. I was torn between a few but finally went with a Vladdin RE. That was the best decision I made in my life other than quit drinking. I loved the convenience of the pod,just take the top off,pop out a plug and fill,put plug back in and your good to go! From the day it came I have smoked one cigarette and that was when my vladdin had died and my daughter was in labor lol. Other than that it has been 137 days.
I'm here mostly to check out the "cool-temp" vaping and maybe help someone quit Tha stinkies and give reviews of nic salts or a new toy I get.
I am also involved in vaping THICK oils,I fill my own cartridges so maybe I can advise on some good empty cartridges to use for the oils.

Right now I am using the Vladdin RE, Vladdin Eden, Oukitel Bison for pod systems. And for the thick oils I am using a little cheap v-mod palm battery and 2 Evod TwistII. Both batteries I use for the oils are 1600 mAh and the palm does a surprisingly 900mAh. I know there are better batteries out there but I am happy with what I have and will ask for suggestions if the time comes :)

well I suggest you tell us what did she have..
a little boy or a little girl???
and congratulations Grandpa...

here have a vape off Howards lemon muffins....
{well ems trying to quit smoking AND for good reason so I CAN'T offer em a cigar}
 
Thanks everyone for the warm welcome and it was a baby girl. She's my first grandchild but my younger daughter (18) just announced at Thanksgiving that she was 8 weeks along then. So.... lol Could anyone suggest which forum I should use to potentially warn members of a particular website? Thanks again for the warm welcome and I will hit that lemon muffins cause it sure tastes better than a cigar

Edit: She was named Aubrey Mae

You may want to research a lot more on "thick oils" and vaping

Big congratulations on becoming and grandfather and kicking the stinkies, welcome aboard to VU :vino:
 
Thanx everyone! And I am excited to be a granpa. I would agree that the oils,especially now,are nothing to mess with. If I did'nt create my own "concoctions" I wouldn't be partaking.

Welcome to the forum:wave:

I have noticed that some people who can't quit smoking all the way with the sub ohm devices have better results with a pod device and salt nic.

As for the other oil stuff we aren't supposed to be talking about that on the main forum.

There is a CBD section and you can talk about "CBD" oil there:

http://vapingunderground.com/#cbd-cannabidiol.929

That is good that you are making your own so nothing goofy ends up in it.
Like that stuff that is/was killing people.
Anyhow, I have heard good things about o2vape CBD oil cartridges.;)

Again, Welcome to the forum and congrats on making the switch:)

It's important to know the difference between what is sold as oil, but isn't really oil at all, and actual oils, which are very dangerous to vape but are often sold as safe to vape

yes most shops wont be able to help you as the end user need to be sure your safe. since you DIY we also have a fine well informed Diy Section as well.
