I got a Smoktech Slim ViVi Nova tank, my first real accessory to my "710 pen".

I can't believe how different the hits are compared to the small, single coil funnel type cart that came with my rig.

That's the 'econo' version which comes with two different size rods, apparently the deluxe version comes with a total of 5 for some more variety of coil sizes.

I went to a new B&M that opened up not to far yesterday and I was pretty impressed with the selection and quality of his stuff. He mixes his own liquids, and claims that he is about to sign a national contract to be sold in 3,000+ shops, he carries a large selection of tanks, mods, accessories and is very knowledgeable.
When he realized I knew a little bit about vaping he brought out a black nemesis and chi you, to me they looked very similar to black chrome, but he claimed they were black iridium coated - I work in sheet metal manufacturing and I had never heard of that kind of chemical film before for metals. Has anyone ever heard of a black iridium coating for mods? He said they were custom manufactured for him, and he was selling them fast. Reason I'm curious is because the black chrome finish available on lots of mods seems to wear off very quickly, and I'm wondering if the same thing would happen with the nemesis and chi yous he has. I asked him to text me some pictures of the two mods and I will post them up on here in case anyone is interested in seeing them, or purchasing them.

I walked away with my very first dripper (nimbus) and 15ml of Banana Nut Bread in 12mg mixed up fresh while I waited.

Welcome to VT - It's a great place

I smoked my last cigarette around the same time you did. Personally I've found myself vaping ECBlends "Snickerdoodle" 40/60 mix, I can't get enough of the stuff.

You should check out http://www.ecblendflavors.com/ - they have tons of flavors and a lot of options to customize it to suit you personally. Aside from the snickerdoodle they also have some hazlenut flavors you may like, if you decide to check them out use coupon code 10020 for 20% off your entire order

I'm not familar with the SID, but there is an option to check the resistance of the atomizer/cartomizer (ViVi Nova head) once you know the resistance you can look at one of the charts available on the net http://www.vaporsworld.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/power-vaping-chart-lg.jpg and play around with the voltage settings based on the reccomendations on the chart to find your "sweet spot" - the voltage is probably too high and that's why you're getting the metallic taste and massive amounts of vapor.

I was a previous smoker and have now been vaping for nearly a year. I work out regularly in the gym and my primary focus is cardio. Tons of running and stairmaster. Vaping does not affect me at all. I vape moments before the gym and afterwards and do not notice any difference. My guess like you said is that you are probably out of shape. Your cardio will come back to you in a few weeks. Keep at it.

When I first started vaping, I was using my vape throughout the day to help me cut back on cigs, but after doing that for 2 weeks or so I stopped smoking analog cigarettes completely and it's been over 2 months now. I would say it's been very effective. I immeditely noticed my sense of smell and taste coming back, and I felt better, and the smell of regular cigarettes after someone smoked was really offensive, I'm definitely glad I made the switch and the transition was quick and painless. After seeing how successful I was, my father and brother also got in to vaping and both have cut down on their analog cigarette use substantialy

I hate that.

I'd much prefer if someone would just call me $#@!$ , I can at least admit to being one of those.

Is it just me or is everyone taking things so personally? When I reccommend a cheap starter kit, it's for one reason and one reason only.. to make sure they are going to enjoy vaping and figure out if they're gonna stick with it. No sense wasting any extra money if they're not gonna stick with it, and if they decide they like it, they can always get an advanced pv later on, plus they'll already have a backup battery.

vaporraper is right, the main point is that you're happy, and you're vaping and staying off the analogs.. everything else is a matter of preference.

I just can't see how someone would reccommend a Provari to someone who is inexperienced with vaping and looking for a starter kit.
Provari and other APV are usually an upgrade down the road for most people once they've become more familiar with vaping and are ready to move on to the next level. eGo batteries are very cheap, yesterday I purchased a 650mAh eGo-k with CE4 and usb charger for $11 and free shipping for my father who has shown interest in vaping, it's small, cheap, and he can learn the basics of vaping without investing much, in this case absolutely nothing because it will be one of his Christmas presents

I agree that if a B&M store has trial units and offers samples then it's not necessarily rude to go there and proceed to not buy anything. I don't think that it should happen all the time though, maybe some weeks you're only going in to try new flavors or check out a new apv, but at some point you should also try to make some significant purchases from them. Online sites will almost always have better prices, and it's great to save money on certain purchases, but we also need to support our local economy and buying local at B&M stores is one way we can do that
