1. Welcome to Thailand Vapers, an English language forum for members in Thailand and the rest of Asia to talk about vaping.
    Commonly referred to as e-cigarettes, vaping is really about the use of personal vaporizers (mods) and atomizers (tanks, clearos, RBAs, RDAs, RTAs) filled with e-liquid.
    Are you looking to get started or an old hand at vaping? Everyone is welcome here so sign up today and talk vaping with us!

    Kinda heading back to the past, but always good to head down memory lane...

    I'd been a heavy smoker for years, knew it wasn't good for me but enjoyed it....
    Tried cold turkey didn't work, tried to cut down, didn't work...
    Heard about e cigs, researched online, spoke to a mate who was vaping, he put me on the right path.
    Ordered my first ever kit and never looked back..

    Over to you...

    When nicotine patches didn't work and I really needed to stop smoking because I didn't have enough air in my lungs anymore, I tried vaping.

    In the beginning that didn't work either because I started with 6mg.

    A few months later I found this forum and gave it another try with 12mg and after a week I never looked back.

    Smoker for 20 years. 1+ pack for more than 10 years then 1/2 to 3/4 pack for the last 10 years.
    My wife and daughter complained a lot.
    Then, one day, i decided to try vaping. I Bought cigalike, then 2 weeks later updated to Nautilus Mini with ego battery, then RTA, RDA etc....
    It's been almost a year now that I didn't think about stinckies. Can't even bare the smell anymore.

    A friend came into my restaurant about 5 years ago with a cigalike, tried it and it did nothing for me. A couple of months later he had a Joyetech ego thing, much preferred that and ordered one, cut down on fags. Not long after that I had a couple of Vamos an Aspire Nautilus tank and a Kanger Aero Tank Mega. That's when the vaping bug hit and I started my buying spree, which has never ended!

    My buying spree has ended. I only buy coils, e-juice and occasionally an atomizer. I think I won't buy another mod anymore until my most used mods will break down, which I don't expect to be soon.
