    Re: E-Cigs..anyone tried one?

    Well after 1 week with the Blu-cig I'm loving it. It can be a bit incosistent but you really don't use these like traditional cigs.

    There's a bit of a steep learning curve that was demoralizing my efforts but now that I'm getting it figured out it's working quite well. 1 pack of traditionals lasted me all week. I'm soloing on the e-cig today. So far so good.

    I've bought a few mod parts to help with the consistency of the Blu so I'm hoping those work out well. All in all though it's been great.

      Almost two full weeks and not a single traditional smoke. I feel so free. lol

      Honestly though I never knew how much I would like not smelling, not having bad breath, not having to worry if a customer comes up to me after I've had a smoke.

      It's quite an incredible feeling.

        My wife got an E-cig kit a month ago. She had hoped it would assist her in quitting smoking. She used it for about a week, but apparently it just didn't do it for her. She tried all different doses of nicoteen but it was just not the same, so she's back smoking again. I'm staying out of it, I've never smoked and she's been smoking for 33 years so I think she's hooked for life.

        Personally I belive you have to want to do something before you can actually do it. I just don't think she wants to quit, if she did the E-cig would not be necessary. But of course we all know I can't tell her that, unless I want to be living out in the shed.

          You know, you really don't see how much you actually spend on real cigs until you don't buy them anymore. $6.00 a day was adding up.

          I'm going on close to 3 weeks now and the stuff I got has already paid for itself and more.

            December 6th and still no traditonal cigs. I upgraded my unit to a revolver Ion. It seems to me to be top of the line. It definitely performs as such.

              I quit last may in 2009 and I started a big jar and thru the money that I would have spent on cigs in there on a daily basis. Roughly 6 bucks a day for two packs, in one years time I deposited $2,500 plus into a savings account for my daughter. She is the one that got me to stop so I figure she should benefit from it in some way.

                  Im really glad I could find this thread again.

                  As most of you probably know my life is in a lot of turmoil right now. I have been having increasing desires to smoke again, hell do anything to take the edge off of anxiety and stress.

                  So its been 5 years since the last post. Any new information, any of you all still Vaping. I think I would rather do this than even fire up one traditional cig. But honestly I am a little scared of getting addicted again. I just thought if I had something to puff on once in a while it might help.

                  Thoughts, input, advice?

                    I've had multiple friends that were pack a day smokers that started vaping and they all say they wish they had started sooner. With vaping you can choose your nicotine level of the juice, if you juice want to vape with zero nicotine they make that too. The flavors are wide ranging and some are very tasty. My advice would be to find a vape shop in your area and just go talk to them.
                    I've heard this "patience is a virtue" junk all my life. I'm happy to say I have no virtue, no scruples, and no desire to wait too long for anything. In my humble opinion instant gratification takes too long!

                      0% nicotine level my friend, most E-cig liquid manufacturers have this as a option.

                      My setup is pretty cheap too and I love it:

                      ELeaf 40W $29.99 http://www.myvaporstore.com/Eleaf-iS...lis-is4050.htm

                      ELeaf Melo Tank $19.99 http://www.vapordna.com/MELO-Sub-Ohm...f-p/mee001.htm

                      5pack of coils for the Melo tank is extra $12-13
