Thanks John,

I think it's more a situation of not being able to inhale anything anymore and hoping that e-vapor would allow me to enjoy that sensation for a little while longer.

Everything that came with the kit is either tobacco flavored or menthol/nicotine in PG base. Think I'll order the Johnson Creek sampler in non-PG and see what happens.

I can french inhale about half a pull without going into convulsions. I am definateily going to quit smoking tobacco no matter what.

i take it theres more to your reasons to quit.. the non PG will more than likely make a big difference. one thing many do not like on the non PG is there is little sensation. being a smoker for years many want that burn/hit that comes with the PG.. replicating the sensation of a reg cigarette...
you can write johnsons and get to call them talk to them and explain what your dealing with.. i spoke to Akai there before and she was really very helpful, informative and nice to deal with alot of ideas and suggestions. as im sure most if not all of the liquid suppliers are... youll find really easy to deal with ppl in this business. you can get Loranns flavors as well to UP a flavor or make your own if thats what you want as well as get menthol crystals to up the menthol sensation. and you can use plain nonPG and flavor or crystals to just inhale with no nicotine if you wish.. one dealer here dropped nic liquid just to go to flavored liquid...
Good luck and keep asking questions and getting help

Day 19, had an interesting experience last night. Sitting at a stop light, puffing away on my e-cig when a cop pulled up next to me. He sat and stared hard until the light turned green, and then drove away.

Wow, it sure made me paranoid. I kept wondering if he would pull me over and try to confiscate my paraphernalia ... after all, what could I be smoking?

I guess there is a good reason for getting one of those e-cigs that look like a regular cigarette.

Hocker, try "Juicy Liquids" as well for Non PG. i just ordered from there. They are local to atlanta and they shipped 2nd business day after i ordered. not bad

I hit Wally World and Hobby Lobby today. Came away with 4oz of Wilton glycerine, 2-oz each Vanilla extract and Butter Flavor for $1.00 an ounce. Two 3.7ml bottles each of Pina Colada and Wintergreen for dollar apiece.

Took an empty cart, dripped in glycerine and wintergreen 6 to 1 and got exactly what I was looking for. Full smooth vapor and exact Optimo cigar icy mint flavor.

Took another empty cart, same ratio 6 VG 1 butter 1 pina colada. This stuff is gooood!

I can die happy now. Still huffin-n-puffin full experience of habit. May have to change my screen name though. Only fourth day and my loogy production is already dropping off. Slept 6 hours straight last night and didn't wake myself wheezing.

Now I need to get a spare atomizer and couple more batteries and I'll be set.

Will certainly check out "Juicy Liquids", Atlanta is not that far away, should ship here quick too.

Thanks,

wintergreen? hmm ok gotta try that one.. butter n pina colada? did you use any nicotime or just straight VG and flavor? hey if you can do without that... then good for you!! im heading that way.. slowlyyy but not yet...
Glad you found what you were looking for,,, and glad you can breath sleep and not wheeze... these things really are great comparitivly to analogs...
Good luck!! batteries n atomizers are available at many vendors.. MyVapor has served me well on those.(901, 801,s)

I have been mixing and vaping strictly VG and flavors since Tuesday. Don't have any nicotine juice and don't seem to need it.

I have not seen anyone address just what is, or how to get, the proper viscosity in a mixture. I found out by trial and error that too thick won't wick and too thin drips on the chin. Yukkk.

I'm using about 40 drops and 3 batteries a day so if 15ml = 300 drops = 7.5 days I can get almost a month on $2.00 worth of glycerine. Now if I can just make the hardware last that long.

Johnatl

no nic? good for you! ill get there..
The really only mandantory part to keep a supply of is gonna be the atomizer/s... batteries can be done away with mostly by use of a USB power source or build your own frankenstein power supply.
Ive almost finished a battery supply housing using a 14500 3.7 battery and a car charger's housing.. saw someone else had done that.. I have a USB cord cut and the pwr leads ID'd to go in a housing to supply power. i wont run straight usb power as thats 5+ v and the atomizers are used to 3.6v so i have to find the proper diode/s to cut it down some... so the only thing youll really need is the atomizer and VG and flavor...
so what do you use to cut the viscosity??? and your right.. lol that chin drip is not good lol..

So far I've only used distilled water but I think I know a guy who can get me an Aqua Velva bottle of the smoothest 100% that ever slud down a gullet. 8^)
