have a few friends that have quit smoking normal cigarettes by using one form of e cig or another and i'm also thinking of trying it myself.
i'v tried the chantix four or five times and although it works very well and the dreams are awesome beyond belief, it makes me very mean and angry after about a month of using it. it also causes a great amount of sleep loss.
i've tried the cold turkey thing more times than i can count so the just quit comments mean nothing to me.
what i'm looking for is opinions, suggestions and explanations on what is what. i've been doing some research on this and the price range is all over the place and the options are endless.
i don't want to sink $40 into a "starter kit" and decide to upgrade to a $200 unit shortly after. i want a high quality unit with dependability that is user friendly. i like the idea of being able to adjust the voltage and being able to refill the container without buying "cartridges"
opening this up for discussion on WTF is in the "juice" that is being vaporized VS a normal cigarette too.
i'm sticking with the not giving a shit what anybody thinks, it's working for me attitude.
after 28 years of smoking, this has worked better than anything else I've tried to help me quit. almost 7 weeks in and i feel much better. my sense of smell and taste is coming back, i have more energy and don't get winded as easily as i did while smoking.
i'm convinced this is safer than a normal cigarette and have found no proof to prove otherwise.
keep fighting the good fight people and please keep posting progress reports. :thumb:
I've been smoking for 35 years now. The good thing if it is that is I only smoke 1 pack every 2-3 days. I wouldn't mind quitting but it's good to get rid of the stress for a while or a different plan of action.
My buddy how stopped smoking and vaping use to mix up a french pipe, menthol and cherry blend that was awesome. He vaped for 2 months and cut the nic down as he went. He's been clean lol for 4 months now.
One of my buddies got a blu e-cig and was really impressed with how little he had cravings for the cancer sticks. I tried it with the vanilla cartridge and it tasted a lot like the java monster "mean bean". That itself might be more addicting than the nicotine.
Blues are good but VERY expensive. Check out Joost Vapor on Chicago Dr in Grandville. Over 100 flavores n several that really taste like a cigarette. All are free to sample n a good kit runs about $60
heading up to lakeshore vapor to re up, i'm running low on juice.
monday will be 8 weeks cigarette free. :woot:
total investment of my ginormus vape machine and accessories so far: $130 and change
1.5 packs of marlboro reds x8 weeks if i were still smoking: $546
being able to have mo monies, have more energy, breath, smell and taste better: priceless. :teehee:
i still don't want a normal cig. it's still early in the game so i'm not getting cocky but i'm really feeling good about it this time. we'll see what happens in another month or so.....
My wife has been bugging me about quitting. I have smoked for about 15 years. I am always out of breath just walking around at work. I just started to eat healthy and exercise so I can lose some weight. I think the next step is to quit smoking. I have tried several times with no luck. I think I might try out one of these e-cigs. My brother has one and uses the red bull flavor.
i know i said i wasn't, but, i bought a new flavor.
when i went to the e cig place i couldn't help but looking at everything they had to offer. since i had some extra time, i checked out all of the different e cig options and also noticed they had 100ish different flavors of juice. so i went through over half of them to smell what some of this shit is all about. i found that most smell decent, some smell like total ass and some of them i just wanted to cut the top off and drink.
with that, there are more i'm going to try but i bought the captain n coke flavor, it's fucking delicious. and if i didn't think i would die from a nicotine OD i would drink it.
i have a bottle of the redbull flavor that i bought when i first purchased everything two months ago and it tastes just like a urinal cake smells. i also have a sample bottle of cherry and i like that.
that mango flavor that MB is talking about smells really good and is on the list of things to try.
fuck it, if i end up smoking this e cig till the end, it's better than smoking real cigarettes, prove me wrong......
Between all the fires started by them and the one exploding like an m80 firecracker in a guys mouth... be aware of the battery if its startn to get warm drop n run.
Kanger EVOD is a good starter kit. I picked one up recently, along with a Kanger Pro tank 3, and a different drip tip. Zero complaints about it so far, and loving it.
ive had my assortment of cartos and batterys from ego for over a year now. i still vape daily. only because i like to. i use no nicotine. and havent in 6 months. i was a 2 pack a day smoker for 13 years. i use vape dudes, and mr good vape online. as well as kalamazoo vapor supply. my favorites are monster ice, which tastes exactly like monster energy drink, and blueberry ice. ive even blended a few of my own with lorann flavorings, and a premix 50/50 pg/vg base and add my own. strawberry vanilla is very tasty.
