    detox from analogs is terrible

    Congrats to everyone that has newly quit smoking and swtiched to vaping. I just celebrated my one year anniversary and although some of the detox effects in the beginning might make you wish you were still smoking, it passes and you feel sooo much better!! I spent probably two months in the...

    New VIP S.G. Members Introduce Yourself!

    I've tried 306 but not 302's... so if you like it better than an 801, I need to hear more! It's funny how the more you learn, the less you know. Don't even get me started on ohms! I'm not sure I'll ever understand those without help. lol Sending you a pm... :)

    Newb e-cig smugness

    Compared to any cigarette, I think any pv might look like drugs to a layperson. When we were having realtors look at the house, my mom was watching (we were out of town) and she commented how she put all of my "smoking PARAPHERNALIA" away so no one would see it! All I had out were a couple of...

    New VIP S.G. Members Introduce Yourself!

    Thanks for catching that! My avatar now "officially" lives in Goodyear.:blush: I think I'll like being a Westsider better than a Fresno chick.... Fresno doesn't get a lot of respect in Cali. lol Definitely pm me when you next meet close by. I'd love to hang out and bring what I have and see...

    New VIP S.G. Members Introduce Yourself!

    Thanks for having me! I don't know if I'll be able to make the next one but I will definitely try.... I'll take my gps with me since I still don't know where anything is other than Safeway and Lowes! Thanks Hellen too for the offer of help. I may take you up on that! ;)

I will be celebrating my one year smoke free anniversary tomorrow (hubby and child very happy) and I was really excited to find out there are so many vapers in AZ!

    Newb e-cig smugness

    I quit smoking analogs on Aug. 7, 2010 (one year anniversary coming up!) and started out with a stick battery, moved up to a Riva, collected an Ali'i and most recently adopted a Chuck. I use the stick batteries for work because I like their small size and I save my mods as a treat at home...

    PICS or it DIDNT HAPPEN! In hand pics ONLY!!!

    That's my newborn! I sent in the pic that I liked the best and just told Jeff to be creative however he felt would work. So, it was a surprise! It looks really pretty. I'm a long time reader, first time typer here. The rose is going to be my very first chuck and I'm really excited to get it...

    In the transition period is it normal to ...

    I've been off analogs since August 2010 and for the most part, think I've done fairly well. I could sit out on breaks with a friend and not be bothered when she would light up her cigarette. However, there are times when stress gets really high and even now, there have been a few times when I...

    Greensmoke bans flavors in California

    It's interesting how things come about. Thanks for enlightening me more on the subject. Many have believed that politicians out to ban e-cigs altogether were the ultimate adversaries. However, I am coming to think that the best way for them to win is quite possibly to do exactly what they are...

    Greensmoke bans flavors in California

    And yes, I don't think that they were forced to begin this ban in California, per se. I do however think there was probably enough coersion based on what is happening to other e-cig companies that they caved in. Unfortunately though, every time someone caves in, that just gives the government...

    Greensmoke bans flavors in California

    I completely agree with you. I don't see where there was any arguments made on behalf of vapers and if I'm wrong and Green Smoke whips out documents saying they did fight this, I will stand corrected and apologize. But, to just wake up one to an email saying "sorry California, no flavors for...

    California Vapors

    There are groups on here depending on which part of Cali you are in. There are some good vendors here too but I've got to say that I've bought stuff coming from PA and and FL with great delivery times. The more you look around the site, you'll find reputable dealers that make the process run...

    Greensmoke bans flavors in California

    lol. I completely agree with you! And believe me, although the whole moving out of state thing is the biggest pain I've had since giving birth.... I won't miss it here and this just gives me one more reason. :vapor:

    Greensmoke bans flavors in California

    Having vaped on Greensmoke for, oh, about two weeks before moving on, I do still rarely get emails from them. This one I found in my box this morning: "Green Smoke Cartomizer Flavor Update In recent conversations with the State of California, the Attorney General's office has expressed...

    Getting a little frustrated

    Hey all... haven't been around terribly long but I know the frustration. I find it easier to take cartos to work because they are quick and fairly stealth. However, between batteries dying fairly quickly and having to fill the cartos (yeah, flavor not lasting that long)... sometimes, I'm...

    Thank you Drew for Great Customer Service

    I just have to send this out and say thank you for great service! I have been enjoying everything I buy through NHaler and I continue to be impressed with speedy delivery considering it's coming out to CA. Yesterday I received my package and I was one LR 306 atty short. I sent a message this...

    Slipped after almost 4 months

    I agree with everyone here. I don't think there are too many here that haven't had the thought of smoking a real cig. I'm beginning to think that much of the guilt we all sometimes feel is that non-smokers look at it as all or nothing and if you slip up you are a failure. All I can say is...
