    Default I lost my novelty....

    So when I first got my blu's I just straight up quit as soon as I started using it, (which is unheard of for me.) Moved on to the 510, and after about a month smoke free, I attempted to leave another habit behind.

    In turn, I failed with both and began smoking again. The past week or so, Ive been trying with my 510, but its just not cutting it. I'm afraid that I lost the novelty on this awesome little device, and it seems like a lesser alternative.

    "Hey, gimme a cig"
    "But, you have your Ecig"
    "Pfft"

    I would try higher strenghts (currently at 18mg) but I have about 100ml of assorted 18mg flavors, and no money.

    Any advice, besides the screwdriver? (which is mine when I aquire $100)
    Last cigarette: 8/11/10. Pack-a-day for 8 years, gone in a cloud of vapor thanks to my 510.

    This is exactley Why I dont tempt fate and have an analog once in a while or at all I believe Im just one hit away from being addicted to cigs again. You dont say what isnt cutting it for you that was before. Was it easy for you before or a battle to keep off the cigs. Anyways I would try snus its about the same price as cigs and keeps me happy.

    That's why I don't ever really think about giving up vaping. Before I knew it, I'd be bumming an analog and then right back to smoking.
    Never want that to happen, and I sure hope the FDA or my own government doesn't force it upon me.

    The answer to this problem is almost always higher nicotine levels, but usually not after four months!!
    So if there is something specific that isn't cutting it for you, it would help to know.

    Probably the cheapest route is to build a nicostick get a charger and 2 batteries. Total cost around $25.
    The larger 3.7 batteries make a big difference. Definitely $25 worth.

    If you aren't handy there have been some for sale around here.

    That's unusual because the story you hear most often is "i tried an analog again for old times sake and it was nasty".

    When i transitioned from analogs and wanted to go back i just ordered higher strength nic and tuffed it out until the feeling went away and it worked like a charm.

    I eventually leveled out at 24-26mg and have no desire to go back to tobacco.

    As far as my leftover 0, 11, and 18mg strength liquids i have laying about some i vape through my new passthrough which makes them seem higher strength and for some others i bought 36mg strength flavors and mix them to add a bit of umph.

    I seriously can't imagine going back to analogs at this point.

    I don't know what you smoke, but 18mg may be too light for you. I smoked "lights" and 24mg just barely cuts it. I've not moved on to stronger, but not lesser either. I do hope to though. You might try a stronger juice to see if it helps. You can't beat the 510 for throat hit. I do have an L88b and hope to get back to it, in a while.

    Garrel;

    Stop pushing yourself around. Ain't no wonder you fell over the edge. Get the best flavor you want...vape only when you want to, it will 'edge out' tobacco sooner or later.

    Sounds like you need to up your voltage , get a nice 5 or 6v device.
