I just joined the forum, so hello to all.
I smoked about 3/4 pack American Spirit mediums per day for over a decade before I switched to e-cigs about 7 months ago, and haven't looked back since. My e cig has been the only thing that has ever kept me off the real smokes, and to me, it is invaluable.
The potential health benefits (vs smoking) of the e cig are astounding. Never has there been such a threat to both the pharmaceutical industry and its shills in the FDA, and the tobacco industry. But as we all know, when big pharma is calling the shots in public policy, that means that public policy will serve for-profit interests, not the public itself. That is, unless we become more vocal, and we have. But really, the e cig speaks for itself, in a growing body of studies that are almost too good to be true.
I started with a cheapo njoy 1 battery starter kit from the smoke shop. The cartos left much to be desired, as they had pretty boring flavor, and their quality was not very good, as many became hot to the touch after just a couple pulls. I started using various compatible cartos instead. The NJOY's battery was actually pretty good, and being that I use things until they fall apart, after 7 months it is starting to fail. Pretty understandable, and actually impressive, considering it was my only battery.
So, I decided to upgrade in quality. I'm not one to go for a bunch of parts, mods, upgrades etc, treating it as a "hobby." I just want something reliable and compatible to keep the options open, not really to build upon. I ordered a V2 standard kit with 2 batteries and it's supposed to come tomorrow. I like that it comes with both manual and auto batteries. Plus, it's a KR808, which gives many options for cartos and refillables. I'll report on it when it arrives.
Anyway, I'm really, REALLY glad I decided to go for even a cheap e cig 7 months ago, because I can now say I'm a non-smoker. Thanks for providing a great site!
