    Just starting out...

    Welcome and congrats on quitting the stinkies! :) I just quit a 45-yr habit 3-1/2 weeks ago and am absolutely thrilled. I tried just about everything (patches, lozenges, hypnosis, acupuncture, etc.) before but without success. To my amazement, it's been practically effortless with the e-cigs -...

    Dusting off my ego-T. need some pointers.

    For the last few days I've been using Joye eGo mega cylinder atomizers and cartridges from Cignot and am loving them. The combo produces tons of vapor (even for a 45-year smoker who just quit 3-1/2 weeks ago and so doesn't have a lot of lung capacity). I'm probably not the best judge of throat...

    My first purchase choices

    Fwiw, sucralose is chlorinated sucrose (technically, it is sucrose (table sugar) in which 3 hydroxyl groups have been replaced by chlorine atoms). Although it is not metabolized as sugar by the body, at temperatures over 246F (119C) it begins a decomposition process that results in the release...

    What Flavor Are you Vaping Right Now?

    Cignot's Basic brand Black Ice 25mg VG. Got it today and it's really growing on me - definite anise/licorice taste (even for someone who only quit a 45-year analog addiction 3 weeks ago) on a nice cool background that is not too minty or menthol-y (I hated menthols when I smoked). Vapor...

    Do's and Dont's for First Timers...from a Newbie

    I had to chuckle at this because I've also wondered about that ever since the day 3 weeks ago when I picked up a cheapo e-cig kit from a local smoke shop and actually managed to quit a 45-year addiction when nothing else had ever worked. I live in earthquake country (10 miles from the San...

    Do's and Dont's for First Timers...from a Newbie

    Thanks, PaporPlas! I actually teared up a bit myself re-reading what I wrote. : ) It's been a bit over 3 weeks now and wonder of all wonders, I still haven't had an analog! I am way beyond thrilled, it's like a miracle. Among other things, I've got two absolutely adorable grand-daughters (ages...

    Do's and Dont's for First Timers...from a Newbie

    I quit analogs two weeks ago using Never Light Agains (NLA) from a local tobacco shop and have had the same experience as you in terms of gradually increased consumption, to the point where I now practically chain vape their "high" strength juice. I think it's because the NLA juices basically...
