    New Years vape resolutions...?

    @BL - WTA definitely helped me get over the roughest part when I made the switch to vaping 100%. Back in those days, the gear wasn't great and I had to vape 24mg to arrest the cravings, but WTA LIFTED my spirit...enough to allow me to cut the nic. It took about 2 years, but my body naturally...

    How often do you crave a cig?

    I first started vaping in 2009, but due to really bad hardware in those early days, combined with a 32+ year analog addiction, I constantly craved a smoke. It wasn't until the Ego-T came along that I successfully made the transition to vaping (September 25, 2011), and I required 24mg eliquid to...

    5 Year Vape-a-versary! Thank You for the support when I needed it!

    To all the ECF folks who have helped me make this journey, today I celebrate my 5 YEAR VAPE-A-VERSARY, and I couldn't have done it the first two years, without YOU! Back then, it was a long and slow struggle to make the switch, because the hardware was so poor, but I finally did it with the...

    Journey has just begun...

    Congrats to all those above who are just starting, as well as those who have kicked a decades long addiction. I smoked for 33+ years, and will be celebrating my FIVE YEAR VAPE-A-VERSARY on September 25th. I tried to make the switch for more than two years earlier, but the available hardware...

    My first Vaping experience

    Though I did in the beginning, now I never clean out previous juice. I kinda like exploring the mystery of how the mix will taste. (I also DIY.) If I don't like it - or if I do - my 'taster' adapts quickly. :)

    WizardLabs, an order review

    Good for you, MarvelM... I love Wizard Labs. My first order was crushed in the mail, but Wizard folks immediately replaced all damaged items...plus a few extra goodies. All following order have been flawless, and packed perfectly. (The 1st order was also packed perfectly, but I think UPS ran...

    Hell yes i cheated

    It took me 21 months to make the switch to vaping, but once I found the flavors I like, the right nic level (24mg) and GOOD HARDWARE (Ego batts with clearomizers), I was able to do it. It's been over 3 years, 2 months and 4 weeks since I smoked anything, and I'm so GRATEFUL to have THAT behind...

    The Diketone Debate: Which Position Do you Take?

    Howdy Mr Mann, Long time no see...but you've clearly been 'busy' with those 14000+ posts, a GROWING KIDDO :D and your art! I voted #1, not to be extreme, but if Dr. Farsalinos says lung damage occurs immediately in the presence of these things, that's good enough for me. We stopped smoking...

    3 year anniversary...and i forgot until now...

    Thanks again, to all above! :) Yes, it feels extremely good! I was one of those folks who had a TERRIBLE time making the switch. I actually started vaping in 2009, but due to yucky flavors and poor hardware (Joy 510 cigalike), I couldn't vape consistently. Then I upgraded to the {then} new...

    3 year anniversary...and i forgot until now...

    Thanks! :) That 1st year seemed to drag along very slowly, but the last 2 years have flown by. I suspect it took a full year to truly break the '32+ years' of addiction to combustibles. Ever since that first anniversary, it's been extremely easy for me. I hope it will be just as easy for the...

    3 year anniversary...and i forgot until now...

    It's amazing that for the specific day when I literally quit smoking - a day I shall always remember - I completely forgot about it until now. I still vape, but I no longer am a slave to any smoking related addiction. Even at 6mg, I can go for days without vaping and have no problem what so...
