Not anymore mate, I stopped vaping over a year ago. I'm just a big fan as it was the only thing that got me off the fags.

Smoking a shisha while you're waiting in traffic. Now that's cool.

As a kid I use to watch old men smoking and sucking on a dirty old plastic pipe- but the uses never thinking or trying to make it looked cool.
Now I watch young men smoking and sucking on a old bit of plastic thinking it looks smart.

You're right. I don't have an extra £12k sloshing around but it wasn't about money for me. It might be an incentive for someone else though. I was just saying what information the app showed.

Exactly. I'm yet to meet an ex-smoker who suddenly had a shitload of extra cash left each year.

Also, if you've been boozing or drinking coffee, a decent menthol e-fag works as well as a chewing gum or tic-tac.

Yeah you don't need to look like a cunt blowing clouds out your arse. This was my set up:
2 of these (you can buy them cheaper, one of mine was a chinese knock off and was probably made in the same factory):
https://www.eleafworld.co.uk/istick-30w-2200mah-battery.html
1 of these:

and a couple of these:
https://www.naturevape.co.uk/coils/naturevape-dcd-pro-coil-dual-coil-device-1-4-ohm
The naturevape coils are expensive but are fucking awesome. Plus they last months, my first one last over 6 months so they are much cheaper in the long run. You get a slab of organic cotton wool with each one to change the wick as often as you want to (depends on how much you use it) and it's a piece of piss to change, there's a vid on the website how to do it.
This is what I settled on after much trial and error, once you have found a liquid or two you like you're done. I used emporium vapour for mine as they were always great and it's easy to specify what you actually want.
Plus let me labour the point, FAGS TASTE LIKE SHIT! I know you don't think that when you have the cravings but they do, don't get fag tasting liquid.

Maybe if you committed to saving the same amount regularly you'd notice?
I didn't. I just frittered it away on other things.

I've always thought that the "money saved"angle was a load of shit.
It's not like you've now suddenly got an extra 12 grand in your bank, is it?
In fact, you probably don't have ANY extra.
Am I right?

Re: Vaping

Oh...and I put a little app on my phone that tells you how many fags you haven't smoked, how many days you have been smoke free, how many extra days of your life you have supposedly accrued and, most importantly, how much money you've saved. Basis £10 per pack I have allegedly saved over £12k since I stopped smoking. That is over £6k per year which is a bloody good holiday or a half decent car (over 4 years). Or you could top up your pension to cover all of the extra life you are supposedly going to get.

You can get ones which give out hardly any visible vapour, which if you're sneaky can be smoked just about anywhere.

Re: Vaping

I had been smoking for over 35 years. I was on 25 per day (40 if I went out drinking) so well and truly addicted.
As mentioned in previous posts, make sure you get decent equipment, avoid the tobacco flavour oils, find a flavour you like and slowly lower the nicotine content over time. The only additional advice I would give is to get a spare battery.
During the first couple of months I coughed up all sorts of shit but stuck with it. Eventually the lungs cleared, the coughing stopped and my snoring (unless drunk) has all but disappeared.
For the record I have not smoked for over two years but continue to vape on 3mg oils. I can't believe that I used to smell like cigarette smokers smell to me now.

I actually did. When Mrs Bungo became pregnant for the first time, and the anti-smoking thing was starting to come in, I carried on smoking where I could but in the end gave up gradually as it just became too inconvenient.
I always found gathering with other smokers in the one remaining allocated place a bit gross.

Ben vaping three years now.
Went from 18mg to 12mg of tmax snake oil.
After smoking 20 a day for 25 years it was time for a change.
Feel alot better now than I did,
I'm.not after these massive clouds of vapour or huge mods just want to stop smoking cigarettes and so far so good.
Couple of tips.
Avoid tobacco flavours, get decent quality equipment and find a decent flavour and strength and stick to it.
These cheap ten quid sticks you get in tesco are ok for a week and if you get on with it upgrade to decent kit and keep going.

Hallelujah someone has talked some sence on the subject.
I'm 50 and obviously shouldn't smoke end of but I do to a lesser extent than I did.
I use a vape indoors on occasions(it cost 65 quid) it's not one that chucks out huge plumes of smoke and I don't do it to act "cool" whoever said nicotine is a killer should get their facts right. Nicotine is the drug found initially in tobacco it's the by products that kills.
I'm just over 12 stone 5 foot 10 eat well,drink two days a week to excess.
My major vice is smoking fags.ive knocked the fuckers on the head twice but never lasted longer than a month.i smoked solid every day for 25 years and have spunked an embarrassing amount of gear up my hooter.
Don't touch the latter anymore but stopping fags is a fucker.

Re: Vaping

Things i truly believe about vaping:
- it will make the vaper ( vapee) look hard just like smoking snout only more menacing and burly
- a vapist looks sexy naturally
- some vaping devices look like robot sausages
- the little extendable radar device from r2d2's head ( the dwarf droid in star wRs ) is actually a big bulbous vaping rod
- some desperate vape addicts have resorted to walking round with rusty offcuts of scaffold poles sawn off to resemble chubby little fucking vaping machines. They call these ' scaffer vapes'
- during the dark years of the second world war churchill improved cockney morale and bolstered stiff upper and lower lip positioning by smoking publically a dirty great big lozenge shaped vaping tube thick as a south sea whales cock. People clapped furiously whenever he pulled the bastard out and hitler is said to have shit his wack when he caught sight of its gargantuan dimensions because it had the heft of a giraffes neck

Re: Vaping

Things I learnt about vaping:
1) This was the ONLY way I could give up the fags
2) Start your nicotine level high (say 18mg, even 24mg if you are a heavy smoker). I know you're trying to give up BUT the nicotine in vaping hits you differently to a fag, it's much more gradual, unlike a fag which is all over your brain in 7 seconds.
3) DON'T go for fag tasting liquid. It's gross. Get something you like, I got strangely attached to fruity ones.
4) Gradually step your nic level down over at least a year to 3mg. This is much easier than you think, 18, 12, 9, 6 and 3 and you'll hardly notice. Once you're at 3mg you can go out all day and not miss it and will only be doing it at home.
5) Nicotine is no more dangerous than caffeine. It's all the other shit in fags that kills you so don't worry about the nic while you're stepping down.
6) buy one bottle of 0mg nic when you're ready, bang it, and you're done!
