I realize i am not much of a poster, but I've gotta put a word in for the Prodigy. I received mine on Friday and have used it quite a bit since. It has 110% resolved my cravings for a cig or chew. Unbelievable! I've done it all, folks. Gum, lozenges, Snus, patches, pills, hypnotizing....you name it. Simply amazing.
Cons: The juice i ordered was NOT for me. I won't name it here, because it is PURE opinion. The taste I'm getting is NOT appealing. I know there is better out there and I've ordered what I THINK will be much better for me. I am a Marlboro/Camel Light kind of person. I'll bum a menthol in a pinch situation, but other than that... So, I tried getting fancy on my juice and am pretty disappointed. Once again, it's only opinion. However, the effect is still there. It's like bumming the no-name cig from a buddy just because you need a cig!
The other issue I'm trying to deal with is muscle soreness. Holy $H!T am i sore in the morning. I've researched it and know that i need to order some non-PG juice. Meanwhile, my calves feel like i just ran a friggin marathon! It's painful, but not chronic.
Pros: ZERO cravings for an actual cigarette. i mean ZERO! That has never happened to me before. My can of chew is probably dried out by now and i don't even know where I hid my last pack of cigs! lol.
My lungs feel crazy good. Up to the end of smoking cigs i felt pretty good. I run 1 mile and walk 3 miles a night. In the last 3 days I wake up with a lung capacity of a whale! i breathe like i have new lungs and i do NOT attribute that to quitting smokes. I really didn't smoke except on the weekends. It's nuts! It's like it just opens things up for you. I just can't see how vaping is a bad thing at this point knowing how my lungs, smelling, energy in the a.m., have been enhanced. Simply amazing. There has got to be other uses for vaping other than for a smoking alternative. Like I said, I'm not a heavy smoker, but the "results" I'm having on vaping is noticeably better.
Other thoughts......
As far as the prodigy goes you hear a lot of negatives because of cosmetics. Look past it and treat it as "work in progress". Seriously, if you're worried about the thickness of a pass-thru cable you're just too picky! Enjoy the fact that some 12 gauge cable is cramping your style versus having stinky clothes and a crappy tasting mouth in the morning! It's a NO BRAINER! Make the cable 12 lbs.... I don't care as long as I am analog free!
Well, good luck to the vaper community. I hope that I won't live life as a lurker in these forums and that I can contribute more, but at the same time I've finally found a solution to cancer sticks that I'm so content with. I'm pretty proud of everyone on this forum and how they stick together. There is a lot of cohesiveness that you don't really see anywhere else over something so simple. You guys/gals are pioneers of something really great. Continue to build on it! I'm sure our government will try their best to stomp it out and label it as a "bad bad" thing, but we'll endure. There's not a doubt in my mind that this just HAS to be better than a cancer stick.
Good luck, folks! Long live the Vape!
