Analog free for a week, after 17 years!!!

[Doughdlg]

Hello everyone. I am a long time lurker in this forum recently registered member. I just want to say hi and thank you to all for the wonderful information posted. It has helped me a lot when trying to figure out the "how" and the "why" of proper vaping techniques.
I wish I had found you guys before I bought my first E-cig.

Welcome, I too was a smoker for 17 years. I was at about a pack a day and am now a little over a month without cigs. Congrats!

 

[DJ RyckRak]

Welcome- both of you !

Seems like we all did/do the same thing.
buy a bad cig, look for something better...lurk- and end up here on ECF.
I guess that is the way it is suppost to be.

We are all wishing you The Best- and hope you will stay and vape awhile.

Welcome to ECF, Doug, and huge congrats on the big switch!! I, too, had 17 years of chimneyhood (some magic number, or something?), starting on my 13th birtday. This is a really friendly crew, so if you should have any questions along the way, do NOT hesitate to ask!

Thanks' Dj. Yeah it seems to be very common to pick the wrong hardware at the begining. I am writting off those mistakes in the name of experience lol

Thank you for the warming welcoming Becky

Welcome to vaping and congrats on the switch. I'm another new guy to the forums here as well. Been vaping since August of last year while I was deployed to Afghanistan. My wife sent me the Volt from Smokeless Image and with in a week I quit smoking analog cigs and quit dipping. All while in a combat zone. I smoked for a long time and I'll never look back. New guy to new guy.... I think we found the right place!

Well, if we don't make mistakes, we have nothing to compare to doing it right! Welcome and Congrats to all the newbs from another newb!

Stick with it and you won't go back. It's all about finding the right juice and keeping your atomizer or cartomizer fresh. Even if you go through a carto a day you are way ahead financially compared to what you would spend on tobacco products. My first e-cig was an abomination from a mall kiosk, and if I hadn't found ECF I would have given up completely.

Thank you guys! For all the support and encouragement to continue analog free.
Now my next step is gonna be finding me a real vaping device. My smoketip is decent (I am being kind here) and portable enough to go unnoticed at work, but I need a real lean mean vaping machine to keep at home to relax an unwind; however, all the choices, set ups and price variation from one place to another out there are really overwhelming.
I guess time will tell.
