Hello everyone,
I'm new here to ecf, my name is Gary. I smoked cigarettes for 26 years, one pack to a pack and a half a day. A tempted multiple times to quit with no success. I'm now six months clear other cigarettes due to vaping. Feeling great to. When I started I was sceptical and unsure if this would be the answer I was in search of. As a new guy in the community of vaping, as many overs were and still are. I knew very little about it. With education I've came a long way. Now when I visit local vape parlours, I find myself educating others. I've become very involved with what's going on with Advocating, rallies, research and studies. My wife has learned a lot to, she once thought I was crazy. Now she's extremely proud of me, even purchased me a custom semi regulated box mod for Christmas. I'm not afraid to voice my opinion on what I believe in, and will stand up for anyone in the community. I know this may seem long winded, but knowledge is power. Our voices matter with the great fight for our rights. Thank you for your time to read this. I hope to, help others, as well as expanding knowledge for myself.

Welcome. This forum is a good place to learn. I got politically active too after getting to zero cigs 2 years ago.

it's funny, both my hubby and i have become definite advocates for vaping over smoking, and it's to the point when we got him a new mod and tank yesterday(one i already upgraded to for mod and got spare rbas for the tank), he wanted to make sure i had an rba already for his tank before we got it. vaping can be a hobby for some like me, but i also consider it a valid way for those who want to quit the smokes as an alternative for people... it fills that need for the hand to mouth and nic quite well.
