Thanks... most likely it's the juice, ive gone threw a handful of flavors til i found what i liked. some places will have sample kits you can buy to try out. and there is even places that will sell you the flavor with a jar of menthol on the side to add to your liking. i like the "tobacco" flavors with stuff added, like tobacco vanilla, or brandy cigar. the straight flavors like just vanilla i didn't like at all, same with fruity flavors. azzkikr 1 Awards

There is so much more to learn with it still,,,, I found that I needed a big battery (I'm on the road a lot) ended up with a MVP v/v-v/w lasts me two days if i'm easy, and the Aero tank.

Now knowing I started wrong, I wanted a cig taste but no effects So I got tobacco flavor That was disgusting more so of a real cig lol I still have my first tank I bought and it still tastes of fail lol Every time I want a smoke i take a few puffs and I'm good I would say give it another chance. If ya make it down to Tacoma I'll take you to my local shop I like? or again look on youtube get a feel for it have a good idea of what you want and go to your local Vape shop. I would not even be posting on here but I feel if you or anybody really wants to quit then this is a great alternative and will help all i can. I have not taken or no anyone personally that has taken Chantix just looking at some of the side effects Vaping is for me. 1lost1 Awards

Some folks i know who i helped switch still like the tobacco flavor, but as time goes by they keep mixing some sweet or fruity bs with it and bastardizing the flavor to their liking like some sweet cigarette type hybrid flavor. coolmd 1 Awards

Alot of folks got a SMOKTECH winder...easy to use and fairly inexpensive. My ZMAX has digital readout and ohms dislplay and changes from volts to watts etc etc...but it is overpriced for just plain functionality. If you get to the point where you are inclined to try your hand rebuilding a setup..i recommend a SMOKTECH mini RDA (rebuildable dripping atomizer). its the one that im using in my videos. The build is so easy...you need kanthal wire..available online from ebay 5 to 8 dollars for 100feet...and cotton balls...thats it!!!! easy peazy!!!!!! but you may want to work up to that point. remember..on a variable voltage setup...your coil in your tank needs the right voltage to avoid shit flavor and throat harshness. If you have a coil rated at 1.7 ohms you need to run about 3.8 volts to keep it from burning so hot all you taste is metal. if your coil is rated at 2.1 ohms...you run about 4.2 volts. Thats why its important to have a variable voltage for a tank (i.e. Kanger protank or anything comparable...bottom coil setup) as opposed to a starter kit battery or mechanical mod. Also..your juice mix has alot to do with things. 80% pg (propylethylene glycol) and 20vg (vegetable glycerin) give a hard throat hit (like your first cigarette) but that ratio makes the liquid very thin.. Im the opposite..i use 80vg 20pg...doesnt hit hard but lots and lots of cloud...and its thicker..so make sure you ask what ratio your juice is. If you have nicotine that shoudnt affect that mix or the results too much..maybe enhances the throat hit a touch....hope it works for you sketch. Awards

Of course it depends upon what my local dealer says....but a single coil something.... on a tesla ($49 lowest price at smokelessdelite) or a smoketech magneto for 35 no logo.
