These are some of my random thoughts and observations about e-smoking after my first full month of being off of analogs and strictly vaping. As usual, Ill offer the disclaimer that these are my person opinions, and that there is much room for disagreement.
1. I have found only one flavor (out of trying about a dozen) that I really enjoy (cherry, from esmoker). However, after a few days of this one flavor, the taste seems to become dull. I have found that switching to another flavor for a session or two helps reset the pallet, making the flavor of preference more enjoyable again.
2. The difference between vaping on a Low Resistance atomizer and a regular atomizer is like the difference between that mom n pop pizza place down the street and Ellios frozen pizza. Ellios is good enough when your starving, but it kinda sucks. The Low Resistance atomizer, for me, has turned a so-so vaping experience into an amazingly satisfying one.
3. So far, I have noticed absolutely no difference whatsoever in throat-hit between using 100% PG and 100% VG. Ive used both in their purity over the last 30 days and have found (again, in my very personal opinion) the only difference to be in vapor production, VG being slightly superior in this category.
4. My vaping needs and bodily reaction to vaping varies greatly throughout the day. In the morning I can handle only a couple drags, as the throat hit is much more intense. As the day wears on, I find that I require many more drags in a session. By late night, I am vaping non-stop.
5. Throughout the day, I constantly find myself wanting to intervene with people that I see smoking analogs. Even strangers. Im not a religious man, but I find myself constantly trying to quell the need to preach the vapor gospel to all of those around me who are still plagued by the demons of cigarettes.
As Katherine Heigl noted on David Letterman, Theres really no excuse to smoke cigarettes anymore. So so true!
6. This forum is not only a great place to become more educated about getting the best vaping experience for ones personal needs, but is a place of community support for all of us who have struggled with such an emotionally charged addiction. Some of us for a couple years, some of us for decades. This forum is a powerful place, and will no doubt help save many of our lives. What an amazing thing.
Well, thats all I got for now. Thanks for reading the brief, random observations of a new-ish vaper. Surely there will be more to come.
