42 Years Of Smoking And I Quit In One Day

[tomus]

Hello,
This being my first post, of course I have a lot of questions.
But before I do that, I wanted to offer some encouragement to others regarding QUITTING SMOKING.

You read the title of this post correctly, and to be more precise:
42 years of smoking NON-FILTER cigs, at a rate of one and a half to two packs a day, never quitting for more than 36 hours, (once!).
Countless days ended laying in bed, thinking, ok, tomorrow I will not smoke again.
Of course the first thing the next day I had another smoke in my hand quickly after waking up, feeling like I was in THE AIRPLANE MOVIE, shrugging it all off, saying it was just another bad day to quit smoking.

Today, in a few more hours, will be my fifth complete day without a smoke.
ONCE I PUT AN E-CIG IN MY HAND I WAS SATISFIED AND I WILL NEVER GO BACK TO ANALOGS.
So hang in there, it is possible to quit with an E-Cig no matter how 'deep' you got yourself into the tobacco habit

Ok, one question >>
I am using a KR808D-1.
I purchased through Cigeasy.
I'm in Arkansas and I have already got two separate orders within two days of purchase.
Talk about fast, so I thought i'd give them a courtesy plug.
I like the ease of cartomizers, but worry about them burning the filler, especially when re-filled. (Yes, I know they are actually made to be disposable).
If you re-fill them, there is no way to tell if you are burning the filler or not.
Is there a system out there that will automatically send juice to an atomizer without having to use filler material?
If so please provide me some links.
Thanks !

Congratulations Tomus! The PV is indeed a MARvelous invention.
I refill my cartomizers all the time - you won't burn the filler if you keep them juiced.

A good feeder is by Super T Manufacturing.

Also check out the string for Noobs by a Noob. It's really full of terrific info and helpful hints!
Good luck to you!!

Congratulations!! The cartos will taste burned when you burn them. Keep them well-juiced, and they should be OK for awhile.

also you can try dripping i started playing around with a drip tip and direct dripping and havnt gone back to carts or cartos since.

When refilling carto's, cart's or dripping, as soon as the flavor starts tasting different add more juice. It won't hurt to top off more often but it will cause a problem if you run it dry. There's a few auto and manual juice feeders on the market. They tend to be expensive from what I've seen. Here's a link to the Wetbox 510 WetBox Rust. It's one of the least expensive at $50.

Thanks to all above.
JupiterV -- thanks mentioning Super T Manufacturing.
The Precise 18650 Electronic Cigarette and
VapeMate Juice Feeder looks like a very nice setup.

Hey, I'm in north little rock. I started out with an 808 also. Didn't like the burnt filler or killer throat hit from it. Got an ego, started dripping, and now my 808 sits there collecting dust. Liberty flights has rivas for thirty bucks. Get one of those and you'll be set!!

Congrats Tomus, I am a 30 year plus smoker (ex smoker now ). I quit with my first ecig. It's a great feeling.

to ECF tomus. I too quit smoking after doing so for about 50 yrs. I started at a very young age and have been without since jan 2010. If it hadn't been for this forum and the help of the great members here I might still be smoking. Glad you come aboard.
Ikenvape.com has an excellent 808 mega cartomizer tat he has engineered and built just for him and tey are magnificent. I have tried and have about every carto type made and these ones can't be beat. You'll get into all the mods and everyting later and I'm not trying to push products on you ,sorry. I just like people to know about them. Happy vaping

Hey, congrats on your struggle. Keep it up.

Congratulations! I smoked for over 55 years & quit the same day I received my Joye 510 kit. It was one of the easiest things I ever done, & I've been analog free for over 6 months. It's Great!

You may wont to look at the REO's no filler just juice and atty with a battery all in one.

Hard to get some times but well worth it. I was a PAD + for 34 years this mod is the easiest way for me to stay off the smokes

Keep up the good work. I never though I would quiet the analogs.

 

[Demoness]

Congats to ya!

 

[OldDragon]

For a cartomizer with no filling in them, try the new ce2 v4 carto's. I find them easy to use and work great on my ego. The ones I've gottem come from AwesomeVapor. I thing they have ones that will fit your ecig.

 

[tomus]

Ohhh Thank you all again so very very much for your support.
I am so very excited since trying a PV.

 

[JupiterV]

The funny thing is I'm STILL excited! Have a blast with it!

 

[simply me]

I was a 43 year smoker. I haven't smoked for 9 months now. I feel great, no more 45 min. coughing spells in the morn. Just keep with it.

 

[reko]

Congratulations! I know how you feel simply me. I had to listen to my stepdad hacking up his lungs every morning until he got his e-cig. No more waking up to that awful sound!

Welcome Tomus, over 40 years here and analogue free for over 7 months.

Hey there. I'm in the nw corner of Arkansas. I just got my ego to start vaping this week. I look forward to going full time with it soon. I'd have done so already, but my job makes me stand out in the dark with the smokers. I'll get used to it pretty soon and then no more analogs for me either. I can't wait to be done with them after only 20 yrs.
