As of 12-21-10 I will be one year on e-cigs. I Started from THIS message board, but for some reason now it says I am not a user and must start anew.
That's fine, because at the moment I have a lot of frustrations to vent!
I was only going t post on the site where I usually buy my items, but since I HAVE to post in new man's land and New people are going to read this, maybe that's not so bad eh?
A year ago I would buy atomizers and they'd last for a week each. I posted if this was normal, people said no they should last longer, but sometimes "stuff happens".
Ok. Well I put in an order on November 23rd. THIS YEAR. After buying attys after attys. 3 Atty's in the order. All 3 are dead now. Only one of which my supplier will take back. Ok. ANother risk I take.
A year ago in prefilled tips, one tip would last me one day, usually two (Yes being refilled). In the same order as above I got 3 boxes, aka 15 tips. As of today I have 1 tip unopened.
I've tried youtube, messages, How-to's, emails, EVEN SCOPE & Vodka!.....Nothing has prolonged the life of any of the units or the accessories I've used till now (Mostly 510's and KR808's).
So as of today I've gone from a $5 a day habit to....about the same once you add in the unit, the parts you have to replace almost weekly, juice, tips, fillers, on and on. Not to mention the jaw pain I now have from trying to pull off these malfunctioning units I keep getting sent.
Not fun.
I was one of E-cigs BIGGEST promoters until about a month ago. I guess 11 months of telling myself it'll get better, while the products get consistantly worse and cost more, I'm just at the end of my rope. And YES they are getting worse. I was happy to pay for an atty a week, 3 dying within a week though? COnsistantly? WTF?!?!
And yes, I've tried dripping (YAY for mouths of wet liquid which burns your mouth and tongue!), Tried cartomizers (YAY! For products which have very little use out of the box with no hit or vapor and once refilled NEVER get any better!), stronger batteries & Attys (YAY! For more electronic junk which dies quickly within 3 days, while still leaving you thinking....where's the better flavor or hit at?)
So....At almost my year anniversary, I'm left feeling like I want to go smoke a Camel & get that AHHHHHHHHHH, so I don't get ripped off anymore with e-cigs that used to be amazing things and yet now leave me feeling unfulfilled and ripped off.
Anyone?
