3rd day on E-Cigs

[Lynniel]

Woke up this morning, feeling fine...

Lungs starting to clear, breathing a lot more easier! had a few vapes of cappuchino with a coffee, sun is out!
I found when I started a few days ago, I did not really like he taste of any of the liquids, bu they have grown on me, maybe it's my taste buds changing, because of the lack of analogues?
Really need to get some atomisers, I only have one, the other that came with the Riva does not work!
Liberty Flights have a 5 pack of cartomisers for £5.49 which seems a good deal, must get something this week.
I can't quite believe how easy it has been!!

Good job man. stick with it. life only gets better.

 

[jdh5484]

Good job but you better get some spare equipment!!!!

Congratulations on getting started. I would HIGHLY suggest you stock up at least 5 atomizers just in case or 3 packs of cartos. You never know when one dies on you and your left with nothing to vape.

Also, check out some of the vendors on here and order some 10 mil bottles to try out. Best way to find something that you like.

get higher nic level to avoid withdrawal symptoms. after a week you will know. goodluck.

 

[Lynniel]

Thanks
I am on 18mg at the moment, and having no withdrawal symptoms, may try some lower levels.
I do have a mini e-cig as a back up, but, yes I have to get some carto's!!
I'm only ordering 5ml bottles at the moment just to try, but they are £3.00 each!! ($5.00)
so it can get a bit expensive!!

While purchasing another pack of atomizers, get a box of cartomizers while you're at it. They are great for when you're going out or driving where refilling would be a hassle. Also, get some more batteries or another kit.

Congrats.

Hey Lynniel, I'm new to this too (9 days) and like you loving it, especially the fact I'm already feeling healthier

Like you too my taste buds are coming alive and I'm enjoying juice that I didn't initially like, it's amazing the difference a few days makes!

If you received a dud atomiser you should be able to get a replacement from the vendor you bought the kit from, it should still be under guarantee I'd have thought.

Good job on tossing the analogs.

The nice thing about cartos is you can play with all types (within limits). Mix and match with your favorite flavors until you find the sweet spot.

congrats to new vapers! quitters are winners here...

Congrats to you! 3 days is something to be proud of.

New to vaping myself - one full calendar month now and had the same pleasant surprise at how easy it has been kicking analogs to the curb. Not even a whiff of withdrawal or temptation. I can't praise e-cigarettes enough. Life changing.

As for the cost you mention... how many ml are you vaping per day? I was a pack-a-day smoker and am vaping between 1ml and 2ml. If you smoked a similar daily amount but are vaping far more, you might want to consider upping your nicotine level (NOT past 24mg imo) so you vape less e-liquid, and then if you choose to, reduce over time (a period of a few months). So a 5ml bottle like you describe would last me 3 or 4 days. Smokes are $6 a pack here, so that's $18-24 I would've spent, as opposed to $5 for the e-liquid you're buying. When you consider the expense of vaping, try to remember how you were getting bent over and shafted buying cigarettes, and the associated tax thanks to being demonized by the UK government. (I'm a Brit) Considering the ongoing cost of vaping compared to smoking... it is between 1/4 and 1/12th the price for me (depending on atty-care).

Congrats on the success so far. After about a week I stopped counting the days since it became obvious that quick... cigarettes are now history. Now... go help all your smoking friends to follow your wise steps.

I've said the same thing - if you can't quit on a decent PV you can't quit

Day 17 for me so I'm still a n00b too, but things just keep getting better.

cheers -

Starting my second day and so far so good! Had a little bit of a thought this morning for an analog but just picked up my big daddy and took a vape LOL. ahhhhhhhhhhhhh LOVE IT! I have a lil momma to play with different juices during the day and I keep my main juice in big daddy. I have found this setup works best for me. That way when I get bored, I just drop a few drops in the lil momma, take a few vapes and I am ok....hope this is my regular thing!

Keep up the great job...quitting tobacco is awesome...spread the word, vaping does work to reduce or eliminate the use of burning tobacco

About the same 1 or 2 ml, I think! but I have been using a lot these few days, just trying different flavours!
It is way cheaper than smoking, whatever I do! It's great not having to think about having enough ciggies, having to go to the shops etc, everyday!

Thanks for the comments everyone!

I also couldn't believe how easy it was to quit smoking with the help of my PV! As your taste buds begin to come back to life, I'm sure you'll find a ton of flavors to satisfy you. One quick side note, new atomizers are filled with a primer that tastes horrible. Maybe this was a part of the reason you didn't care for some of the flavors you like now? Make sure you blow out your new attys really good to get that primer taste out before start using them. Hope this helps and happy vaping!

 

[tat2d4life]

congrats to all the new vapers who finally kicked the cancer stix out of their lives... the world of vaping is a wonderful journey into new flavors and better health... also stock up on those attys and cartos.. nothing worse the the death pop of an atty with no back ups... lol

 

[reprisal]

I'll second other peoples suggestion of getting some cartomizers. Best deal I've found is 15 Boge cartos for $20 and free shipping at crystalclearvaping.com. I checked your other posts and saw you're using a Riva 510, which is also what I'm using. I'd recommend the LR (low resistance, 2.0 ohm) ones.

Good job making the first step! Stick with it!
