allow myself to introduce... myself

[davetwopointoh]

Hi all,

Just registered a few minutes ago but have been lurking here (and learning a ton) since early August last year.

Back around the end of July I decided to try a cigalike (Blu disposable) so that I could get a nicotine fix without leaving my non-smoking (even on the deck) apartment to do it. I wasn't planning on quitting smoking, because I really enjoyed smoking. But within a week, I had quit smoking, because cigarettes just started tasting and smelling awful to me.

I replaced that mediocre Blu disposable with a V2 cigalike and some clearomizers, which were way better, but started doing a lot of research on making further improvements. That led me here (and also /r/electronic_cigarette). I quickly bought an eGo and a Kanger Aero tank, but only about a week afterward, found myself ordering a ProVari Mini and a nautilus. And then, after a lot more reading here, ended up buying a Dripper Pro, and shortly after, a Sophia and Cage tank. Still loving that setup, but added a P3 just this week.

This is getting expensive... but as I've always said, money is worthless until you spend it!

Hi Dave and welcome to the forum. I have the Nautilus mini on its way in the mail, and am waiting to check out the eleaf 50W soon to be available. Thought I was done for a while till someone mentioned a cup holder for my truck and an organizing stand for my desk... Regardless, I'm off the cigs!

I don't know how long I'll be vaping for, but for now I like it. I haven't dumped a ton of money into it, but a decent amount. I do like not smoking cigs though, so I'll so this for a while and see where it goes. I have convinced 5 people to switch to vaping in the past 2 weeks, so that's pretty remarkable itself.

to ecf davetwopointoh. Nice to meet you and so glad you are here. I know I spent more when I first began, but for some, like me, you find what you like and you sort of stop looking. I do all my own stuff and I have been smoke free for a good while. In fact, I think I am more addicted to vaping than I was smoking (if that is possible). Good luck to you and just make yourself at home. Just a wonderful place to be.

it does seem a little expensive at first, until you find what you like. But, if you consider how much your saving on cigarettes you offset the cost VERY quickly. find the setup that works for you and you'll really start saving.

Oh, I'm not complaining! Just observing.

I think I quickly fell into the hobby aspect of the whole thing. Anyway, with all the health issues and social issues of being a smoker, I figure I'll always be way ahead of the game with the switch to vaping, even if I end up spending twice or three times as much as I did smoking. Which I'm not planning on doing, but just sayin'.

Lol! I've never heard of the group or the song before, but I've gotta admit that was seriously entertaining.
