My Firelight starter kit arrived a week ago and I'm thrilled. I have gone the past week with only three packs of smokes, 23 of which were Saturday (drinking did me in). I don't smoke at work anymore, just stealth vape at my desk or go outside and vape a couple times. I feel better, I can smell and taste a little better... Which is very apparent whenever I have an analog. It's odd, I've had a couple analogs every evening except tonight, and every time I enjoy it, but they taste kind of nasty. First night after getting my kit I wasn't going to touch analogs, until both my batteries died. I've gotten better at making sure I keep one charged while I vape the other, so I can't use not being able to vape as an excuse to smoke.

Also, part of my learning curve was longer slow drags to get good vapor. Once I figured that out it helped tremendously. The other tricky part was figuring out when vapor and flavor fell off if it was the battery of cart getting low. Turns out it was the cart more often than the battery. I've gone thorugh 11 carts so far (19 left) and tonight I ordered some ejuice to try refilling and some more flavors.

I didn't necessarily want to quit smoking when I ordered my starter kit. I wanted to cut back a bit, particularly at work, and also help to get in shape so when I get more active in summer with various sports I'll hopefully have more endurance. So I got one of the cheapest kits I could find to get started and see if I'd like it. So far I'm into vaping $83 for my initial investment and according to my spreadsheet I made I'm only in the hole $44 after a week. Every day I record the number of analogs smoked and carts vaped. I'll have to modify my spreadsheet to account for refilling carts but so far looking like I'll save a fair amount of money rather quickly.

Once vaping and cutting back on smoking has paid for itself and them some I plan to spend the money saved to buy a nicer vaporizer. I liked the video reviews of the silver bullet. I want to not worry about charging throughout the day and would like more vapor. So far what I have works great though and I've found I enjoy vaping more than smoking.

My first couple of days vaping i still smoked, but now I am a full time vaping man... unless someone offers me a cigarette...
Someday, perhaps sooner than you think, you will laugh when someone offers you a cigarette.
Then you will offer them a drag of RY4, or watermelon, or bananas foster, or who knows what!
:D

For those of you worrying about leveling out, it can if you want it to, maybe.

I went with the 510, and have loved it from the start.
But then I got some 306 atomizers for dipping.

And then I got my first Chuck, and then my second.
Now I am done with hardware, but software is still evolving for me.

So I was hooked on NHaler RY4 and 555 and still am.
And I used various flavors from MyFreedomSmokes to mix with as well.

But now Tasty Vapor has gotten it's claws into me.
And I love a lot of their flavors.

So here is what I use now, and this list is subject to future changes...
--NHaler High Voltage RY4
--NHaler High Voltage 555
--Tasty Vapor Caramel Popcorn
--Tasty Vapor Tastyfinger
--Tasty Vapor Banana Nut Bread
--Tasty Vapor Dulce De Leche
--Tasty Vapor German Chocolate Cake

And I have to give a thumbs up to Johnson Creek Tennessee Cured too.
