How did you first hear about e-cigs? - Page 2 - e-cigarette-forum.com • The place for electronic cigarette reviews, news and chat

My brother read about them online somewhere and sent me a link. I thought it was the coolest thing ever and started checking out all the companies selling them. NJoy seemed the most established at the time, so I ordered from them. Funny thing is I didn't find it satisfying at all when I got it, but my brother tried it and loved it. He ordered one for himself and quit analogs the day he got his (he's since quit vaping too).

Jump forward a few months and I found this forum, read lots, got myself a different e-cig and now I'm also analog-free.

Was on an airplane and the guy next to me pulled one out! I had to know what it was. He pulled a second one out and let me try it. He was a seller. I bought it immediately!

I was on a long flight and the guy next to me pulled one out. I had to know what it was. He had a second one and let me try it. Turns out he was a seller. I bought one on the spot!

Without violating forum rules, I'll just say I had heard about "vaping" becoming trendy in California and was looking online for a vaporizer. I got caught up reading about e-cigs and wanted to try one but didn't want to gamble. I ended up seeing them at a mall kiosk, took a couple hits off of a demo and bought one. I found this forum after constantly having problems with it and still have a lot to learn.

I fell victim to a BLU add. I stumbled across it when looking for cheap online cigs. I got it and was disappointed, but of late have come around to the idea, and ordered from HC, and shall hope to quit cigs and vape once again.

Don't remember where I originally heard of them but myself and a co-worker started talking about them one day. I went and looked 'em up found this forum and voila. I now have a 510 and he has a (402?) not sure exactly what he's got. We are both now happy vapers. I haven't had a single analogue in about a month. Last analog was opening my 510 package

I'm 56; at a family get together a buncha the kids (mine, my sis's, etc.) were talking and having a good time and I was going by when one of them started talking about an e-cig he saw in a bar and it was cool. I listened with the intensity of a prisoner in solitary waiting for taps on a pipe... anyhow; when I got home I googled my brains out and found Pilot was selling em. A month later I had a 510 and now am free after 38 long fricking years of smoking.

I saw a BLU ad on a torrent client, watched some related youtube videos, including ritalee and igetcha69's reviews of the 510, and found this place. I saw some posts from people who smoked 4 packs of luckys a day for 50 years and quit using a 510, and figured that was the one to get, so I ordered a 510 + PCC. That was 2 months ago and I haven't smoked an analog since a few days after the 510 came.

Leaford , his videos convinced me to get a smoke51 , not bad , not great... moved up to a 901 shortly after that... it was all downhill from there.
