For the Neophyte/N00b Vaper

Just starting your vaping journey?

Recently switched from traditional, analog cigarettes?

Don’t know where to start?

Will this guide teach you how to start vaping?

Nope.

It’s just Chuck Testa, with another realistic mount.

Just kidding.

We will go through these questions for ya.

What Electronic Cigarette Terminology do I Need to Know to Start Vaping?

To start with, you’ll need a battery (to power the electronic cigarette), e-liquid (this is the liquid that contains the nicotine) and a clearomizer (where the e-liquid goes). Don’t worry, this e-cigarette terminology will be second nature to you after a while.

The battery is the device that, quite literally, powers the electronic cigarette. It pump out a little energy into the clearomizer, heats up a metal coil, and turns the e-liquid into vapor, which you then inhale. All of this goes on behind the scenes – all the user has to do is press a button and inhale, and they get their nicotine fix.

The Kanger Evod Kit is an excellent kit to start with. A link to it follows later on in this post.

What Milligram Nicotine e-Liquid Should I Start With?

If you’re just starting vaping, a good rule of thumb that I use to decide what milligram nicotine fluid to use follows.

Use this milligram fluid if you’re smoking this many cigarettes per day:

6mg – Less than a half pack per day

12mg – Half to a whole pack per day

18mg – Whole pack per day

24mg – Over a pack a day

Where Do I Get an Electronic Cigarette?

A great starter kit is the Kanger Evod Kit – Read our review of it here, and buy it here.

Secondly, you’ll need some e-liquid. Check out the Dekang & eLikWid e-Liquids offered at FlavorPuff here.

Third, to get the best flavor out of your e-juices, you’ll need to steep them. Check out our post about steeping e-liquid here.

Equipped with this information, you’re in a much better place to start vaping than I was. I was shooting in the dark when I started on my electronic cigarette journey – I had no idea what I was doing, nor did I realize that there was a wealth of information out there about all of the different juices and devices.
