    Have you planned an "out" or exit strategy?

    Heck, I don't know! No exit strategy here. I didn't have an entrance strategy to start with. Just stumbled upon vaping & ended up quitting my 40+ year addiction to analogs. I initially bought a couple's kit for my DH & I because we wouldn't smoke in our daughter's house & couldn't smoke while we...

    Now You All Have Gone & Done It!!

    Yeap, you all have inspired me to start DIYing my own juices. I've been checking this part of ECF since I started vaping. So tonight, with my DH's blessings, I placed my first order. (He's so good to me :) ) Here is my list of goodies (hope I did this right): 250 ml - 36 mg nic juice 70/30...

    New here and new to e - cigs!!!

    Hi & welcome to ECF!! My advice is to browse this site, and the Info Pages (upper left below ECF logo). That's the best place to start. There are so many options. My DH & I personally started & continue to use KR808's batteries that we got in a kit. There are many kits available as are opinions...

    Brand Spanking New Member!

    Totally agree. By far the easiest quit I have ever had. I was a 40+ yr, 1 1/2 pad smoke stack. It's been over a month for me now...being free from analogs. No, I'm going to start calling them FRSKS (filthy, rotten, stinkin', killer stix). I have noticed that my cravings are almost null &...

    How old are you, and why did you start vaping?

    I'm 58 & my DH is 63. We both started smoking when we were about 13. Both of my parents were basically chain smokers. (Mom was a teacher & there were teachers' smoking lounges back then.) My DH's dad smoked. I didn't become a full-blown smoker until I was 16 or 17. He was 18 & in Vietnam. We...

    Thanks to V4L, one year smoke-free!

    (love the jumpy bananas) Congrats Mirage! I can hardly wait until I can say the same. Also, I have an indulgent hubby, too. I love my V4L Diamond XL's. Agree about the great colors. :)

    Is the E-cig User population growing?

    I know that vaping population increased by 2 when my DH & I quit the analogs. 40+ years of smoking & stinking & coughing. When we go out, we always ask if we can vape. So far so good to vape & have had many curious people ask about e-cigs. Educate whenever possible. Gosh, I do love vaping!!!!

    Stop crying about the usps

    I've never had a problem with USPS. Yes, their online tracking kind of stinks, but I can live with that. I send all packages priority & they arrive in excellent shape & quickly. Always within the time allotted.

    What Flavor Are you Vaping Right Now?

    The very last dribbles of my most favorite - Caramel Mocha Frap Nobacco. V4L didn't have my strength last week & I was so bummed. I knew it was just a matter of time. So I will vape :vapor: until my brain explodes :danger:. So sad :( But I checked this PM & it's BACK. Ordering tomorrow :)

    How long do your cartos last?

    I have 20 in rotation at all times. 4 flavors/5 per flavor. Each flavor has it's own color. So they have lasted me a 1+ months. A few must be wearing out because the draw is getting tough. So into the garbage they will go. One thing is I never vape them dry. Once they start tasting dry into the...

    V2, just started e-cig

    Yeap, I started out with the V2 Couples Kit. It was more expensive than I could have gotten, but I got everything at 35% off. So I don't feel too bad. Hey if nothing else, it got my DH & I off of the analogs after 40+ years. We had a bad auto batt that they replaced immediately. I like the...

    kanger or v4l batteries

    :thumbs: Dormouse, Love the post. I've been using V4L's Diamond manual 808 XL's & love them. I have 2 of them & 4 standard batts. My DH uses the standards more than I do. I really like your posting about refilling. Excellent directions. I use the blank WOW cartos & WOW juices also. Love V4L &...

    way to label cartos

    Sounds like me :) But I do have 4 new flavors on the way, so... Maybe I better do something. I have some gold cartos that I use strictly for Martguerita flavor, but that's it. I didn't think Martguerita & coffee would mix too well.
