Hey community! uhhhh this post got well out of hand. Skip to the last 2 paragraphs if ya wana skip my life story lol

My first thread :) I "only" smoked for 13 years but I use to down a pack of smokes in a day, sometimes a bit more so I started vaping 1month 1week ago. Took me 3 days of smoking/trying to use the kanger evod2 vape pen as much as I could instead of analongs half way through day 3 of that, I ran out of analogs and I didn't freak out... or even really want a cig... I was actually amazed.

Over the 3 days (2 and 1/2 really) I felt it slowly getting easier to see myself able to vape (enjoyably) instead of smoking cigs but every time I've ever tried to quit, one of those triggers always gets me.. After eating/when you wake up..ect... I've never lasted longer then a day on gum/patch/willpower... Lol I'm weak... but being able to inhale/exhale/play with "better smoke" plus get your nic fix and not smell horrid... It's a miracle!!!! I did now and then reach for a lighter or pack of smokes instead of my device.. And now and then I would get a little craving for an analog but now I can say I just crave the juice! Lol

So anyway if your still reading.. (My grammar and structure is bad I know :) I ended up buying a Kamry k1000 e-pipe and have a nautilus mini on order :D but today I was in a rush for work and forgot to bring a bottle of juice to top the tank up... So stupid! So yeah... Few hours of work left+ a hour and a half commute home... No vape shops in the vicinity and I cracked... Paid $10.35 for a 20 pack of jps, my old brand that I loved... (yelled at my brain that I could buy a full bottle of juice for that!... "No dice!" It replied...) so.. Lit up a smoke... Take a haul... Blehhh lol seriously I was tasting all the yuck that ya don't really notice as much when your a heavy smoker lol... I finished it but barely enjoyed it.... Admittedly I had another later on when I was at a bus stop for 30 min watching some girl chain smoke lol... I tried sucking juice resin outta the wicks first though!!! Nothing but burnt :(

So now I'm home.. Didn't even think about having a cig with my coffee.. Went right for the juice and ill sell the rest of the cigs to some poor fool at work tomorrow :D I'm pretty excited that I've finally kicked smoking. One month might not seem long enough for me to say that but I know I'm done with cigs.. If im in a pinch I know I can have a cig and not even enjoy it.. But I plan to be a better vaper and frigging be prepared all the time for now on.... So yeah.. If there's any smokers reading this by chance.. If my weak willed self can convert to vaping, so can yours! :D
oh and if the robot penis vaporizers scare you.. Check out the Kamry k1000 pipe.. It's pretty solid for public vaping and I've already had a few cute chick's strike up conversation about it! :D try that with a cig! ;)

Welcome and congrats!

I have been eye'ing that pipe myself... using a heavy 'hammer' mod with a Smok 6mL PBC V1 and a long delron tip.

Anyway... I feel your struggle... I probably would have just stopped at a store and bought VG and smoked that ;)

Just think of it though... now, you don't even enjoy smoking stinkies anymore! Same here, and I think I like it that way.

Hahha I didn't think you could buy vg from random stores? Like super markets? Wth lol I have an order pending for some diy juice stuff but if I can get usp vg here ill knock that off the list! lol

That mod is pretty damn badass hah I'm not sure how the k1000 would stack up but I guarantee you'll like the weight and feel of it in your hand ;) I've been looking at the vapeonly vpipe2 as a campfire/trying to look wise device lol... Mainly because it's got an automatic atty and is the most realistic oldschool pipe and fake cherry light I've come across. I'm sure the vape isn't as good but I don't think I can resist it for long lol

This hammer is a heavy thing... but it's not too bad.

I liked the look of that Vpipe2... until I saw the following picture...

Maybe it's just the pic... like a tiny person is holding it... but it makes the pipe look pretty big... like someone got the specs wrong when designing it. Otherwise, that's pretty much the type of pipe I am looking to get; something traditional looking, but modern guts.

P.S. I notice you are a little North-East of me ;) but yeah, around here I can go to the local super-grocery store and buy VG in the medical aisle. You *may* be able to do the same, but it's more expensive... but cheaper than cigs for sure... and you only need a little to get you through the ride home... then the rest can go back in to the DIY kit. :vapor:

Hmmm from the couple YouTube video reviews I've watched everyone (lol only 2 English vids I've found) says it fits perfectly in their hands so idk if its the way the hand is holding it in that pic or not but it looks pretty natural in the videos I've seen which were not perfect and you never know about those review vids if they are legit reviews or not. When I get one I will share my findings :p

And ahhhhh the medical Isle! Going to pop in after work and see if they have any and how much lol I'm curious now..

Yeah, I saw some vids available, didn't watch them :( It's now on my list :) I agree though,... when a review'er is sent a package... I generally don't trust it very much, just because it can be rigged even without the review'er knowing. I prefer the vids where someone has went out and bought the item. If someone is serious about reviews, they can buy and resell the item. Big names could possibly sign the item and get every cent back from the initial purchase... but again, I don't fault the review'ers as they seem to be trying to help the masses (not easy task).

Regarding the VG... yeah, I normally find it right near the bandages. It can be used on the skin or ingested,... you could probably just ask the pharmy for glycerin. Standard warning apply... don't buy glycerin sold at a tractor shop that is meant for non-human animals or for lube.

If you get one of those pipes and review it in any way, please PM me. I'm going to hold off on any further pipe purchases until I find one that really excites me or that I can at least play with in person first.

Damn back to cigs eh? Do you think they really tried vaping or just got some not so great devices/juice and didn't bother to try something else? Either way that's to bad :/
Bahahha you should totally get her that lol teach her a lesson ;)

Yea I could only find I think 2 real reviews in English.. Even watched I think 2 german and 1.. Dutch... I think.. Reviews Bahahha couldn't understand anything but still got a look at the pipe a bit more hah there's one guy in English who I believe said he bought his and the dude is in love with it lol if I remember it looks pretty legit in his hand also :) ill be honest I haven't gone over the forum rules yet so I won't post any links just incase but the videos one of the only English ones so should be easy to find.

Also I've been browsing around on the e-pipe forum and there's a healthy little community of diy epipe crafters! Basically ordering parts and converting old school real pipes smoked by some old dudes decades ago into e-pipes... Pretty awesome stuff and I'm already keeping my eyes peeled for nice looking pipes at a decent price like yard sale flea market type deals then pimp out an e-pipe >:D

Yea I'm deff going to grab a vpipe and I will let you know how it is for sure and I'll make a review thread with pics and stuff :)
