LoL Great idea, I think hubby has one of those in the basement too. I know I'll be set in the car - got one of those 2 outlet converters (no geek could leave home without one! but I never thought it would be used for a cig LoL) and 2 car slots - but, what happens if we run out of gas and our batteries run down? *cringe* Oh, let's not go there!

Well, I was figuring, since I have one of those car battery charger things? You know, to jump-start your car? And it has an A/C outlet... That I could use it to charge my e-cig battery in a pinch? lol Wonder if it would have enough juice for that or not. Going to have to give it a try.

my car radio/cd has a USB plug for memory stick to play music. guess what.............you can plug your usb charger into the radio for the pass through or charger! Tunes and vape. :)

You have a cig lighter power outlet? I wanna say for about $5 you can get a usb plugin for that. I'm thinking I saw at madvapes.com, probably just about anywhere, just wanna be sure it has/provides enough power. Think the one I got from madvapes was 2v?

OK, one more thing on the shopping list... ; ) Wall charger, USB charger, USB pass-through, USB charger, car charger, and then USB pass-through for the car. I THINK that should cover it? Wait...I think I better find a solar option, in case the zombie apocalypse hits...

I'm going to start on a windmill in the backyard. There is a creek nearby, wonder if they'd mind me setting up a water wheel...

Very comprehensive "to do list".
I found that watching "how to" videos critical. I enjoy a fellow by the name of "Doctor Vapor"...great selection of videos right here:
YouTube - DoctorVapor's Channel

I'd seen one or two of his vids before, thanks for the link so I can keep it handy! I especially liked his segment about the segment on Rachel Ray. Wow. I like this guy, hope my doc has his attitude when I see him next. How could he not, when nothing else even got me to cut down on analogs? ;o)
 
It was awesome when he drank the water. I LOLed.

I'm going to tell my doctor about him too. Nothing else got me to cut down either except when I had horrible bronchitis. Even then I was still 3-5 cigs a day. My doc was optimistic and thought I could use that as a jumping off point to quit. Nope, as soon as I got better was right back to a PAD until I tried ecigs.

This is all very good advice. I haven't smoked my last analog yet, but down to looking at my last pack, at the same time really struggling to get satisfying hits from my first ecig, a new 801 (yes, it's a high bridge). Also I need a good menthol tobacco flavor to wean myself from marboro menthol light before I stop. I do have some marbro on it's way from My Freedom Smokes with some menthol crystals, hopefully that will do it. The other flavors will have to come later, after a little success.

Two things that were essential to my even continuing to try were the posts on how to inhale properly and how to clean a new cartridge. I really thought I'd been ripped off, until I finally got a decent hit.

Good luck to us all. Hopefully next week I can put a banner on my signature saying "1 Day". After FORTY YEARS!!

best of luck. I am doing well at 11 days since I got my 510. There is some technique to getting a good "hit" from an electric though. I only smoked analog menthol on occasion but got a 5ml sample when I ordered my kit. I think you will find that a big help. The menthol seems to give much better TH than a plain tobacco. Remember......this is different. A lot of an analog's flavor is just the "burnt" taste and not a true flavor.

Even though I only occasionally smoked menthol analogs, the menthol vape adds a kick that it sounds like u are missing. I like my 555 tobacco juice with about 20% menthol drops added when refilling my carts.
