PeakOil 352 Posted March 13, 2013 Report Share Posted March 13, 2013 Few of the lads at work are using the vape things, they paid something like sixty quid for the kits. As one fella had gone from 60 Regal a day (£23.37 a day or £163.59 a week! EIGHT AND A HALF GRAND A YEAR!) to 2 bottles of liquid lasting him a week (£1.43 a day or £10 a week) it has not taken him long to recoup his initial lay out for the kit. They seem to be doing ok on em and not gone back to smoking tabs, well not at work anyhow. If more and more people start switching to em I do wonder what the b*****d government will start taxing to make up the shortfall in baccy tax from vape users and the ever more smuggled in baccy. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Strong Stuff 2,171 Posted March 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2013 So you jumped straight in with a provari ? flash bar stool. I just got a torch with a few 18650 batteries, so going to try out a bigger mod soon. Not quite Well sort of haha. I didn't just go out and order one though, it was the "old" one that the bloke in my local shop had, he bought the new one, but I preferred the older one, the quality is better, like anything as soon as they get popular they get mass produced and the quality goes down. I got the extension so I can use the 18650's, be careful where you buy those though, most are recycled laptop batteries with shiny new labels on!!! http://www.torchythebatteryboy.com/p/18650-batteries-chargers.html Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Paid 935 Posted March 13, 2013 Report Share Posted March 13, 2013 Been looking at the vamo, as all my tanks are ego threads, so seems the one for me, £30 too which doesnt hurt the pocket as much as a provari. What juice are you using ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

What juice are you using ? Are you on UKV forum? There are a few bargains in their classifieds usually. I'm using Royal Vapour RY4 special http://royalvapor.co.uk/tobacco/t-100ml/ry4-special-100ml He does sample packs http://royalvapor.co.uk/sample But, just got an email saying that my order for this is being processed http://www.grantsvanillacustard.com/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Paid 935 Posted March 13, 2013 Report Share Posted March 13, 2013 Ah same as me then, ry4, though im a tight c**t, and buy most stuff from china via health cabin. UKV is a good place, used to go on there a fair bit when i was starting, and just had a look back on there this morning. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

bird 9,872 Posted March 13, 2013 Report Share Posted March 13, 2013 I've never smoked a ciggy in all my life, I've never understood why anyone would find it appealing? For me it's one of the most horrible things that someone can do. i think its your (peer groups) you keep with, i really do. I started at 15 , and it seemed nearly all kids were doing it, prob easy lead at the time.My son done it for 6 months, then got really into his football and never botherd again he is 26 so like me been off'em 20 odd years, mind you he strong and fit as fook lol, whish i was 26 again.!!

You can get different strengths, depending on your current fag intake. I am no expert, I'd say your best option would be to get yourself to a local vape shop and have a chat, and try the different flavours.

That all put me off at first, it was only when I went into a shop and he showed me how easy it actually was that I tried it, like anything you haven't done before. Once you've got the hang of it, it's easy, you just need to remember to get sorted before you go out so you don't run out and end up buying fags!!! Just google vaping shop and your nearest town and it should find something for you. £50 - £60 at most will get you on it. Avoid the Totally Wicked branded stuff, it is well overpriced and they leak like fck!!!! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
