Another newbie enters the ranks!

[Hsmith]

Greetings folks, new to the forums and new to vapin (aside from the experience i had very briefly with the Gumaccio e-cig awhile back) looking forward to getting my new Janty eGo. As I am still learning I'm grateful for a friend who has referred me to here as well as turning me onto the Janty eGo. Ever since i tried his with the flavor it came with (ry4 i think, also not my fav) I haven't wanted to smoke since. Sadly i have to till it gets here, was shipped today and i feel i may have to meet the carrier half way so i don't have to wait lol. Anyway still learning about all the methods of vapin as well as the different accessories. So far i hear 510 is good, and being i smoke heavily and like menthol, dripping may be for me? either way I'm excited to try any method but smoking . Great to be here, and hope to see ya'll in the forums.

Welcome Hsmith!

Surprised to hear that the RY4 didn't work for you. It's a top flavor for many. tobacco flavors are really great to start with then sampling the others is a really fun time.

Good luck to you and congratulations for switching to vaping.

RY4, Seems people either LOVE it or HATE it. I loved it when I first got some, and now I only use it occasionally. Still enjoy it, but the novelty of it seemed to wear off, for me.
If your intent on a 510, check out the eGo. Has a much better battery. 510 IS a great starter, though.
Welcome!

I'm not a big fan of RY4 either, it's ok on occasion, but not my regular vape. Everyone has different tastes and there are enough choices in e-juice to satisfy almost every vaper.

BTW, I caught you Kathy, get back to the snail thread !!!

Hello HSmith, I'm new as well. I'm starting with a 510 and is working rather well for me. A friend of mine has a 901 and swears by it. I'm getting a 901 (should be here this week) to see which one I like better.

This story sounds oh so familiar, lol. I placed an order for a Tornado from TW on Sat and it shipped today, and I'm not a patient person! So rest easy, you're not the only one 'stalking the postman'! Let me know whatcha' think when you get it.

 

[VaporChief]

I can also relate. I am not smoking another cig until I get my new pv (hopefully tomorrow). It was scheduled to arrive today and I was going crazy this morning refreshing the USPS tracking screen and constantly checking the mail.

Let's just say I was a little PO'd when it didn't arrive.8-o Watch out post man!

Welcome, I have an Ego and love it....My first and only PV so far..Good Luck and Enjoy..

The eGo is a very nice device. If you're interested in a more traditional PV, the 510 is popular for its thick vapor but some think it lessens the flavor. I love my 901, just the right mix of vapor and flavor, plus I like a little resistance to my draw. Went from a pack a day to no analogs since the third of March, stick with it! Your body will thank you.

 

[Hsmith]

Yeah I've heard mass good things about the eGo, not sure if i was misleading in my post, but the janty eGo that comes with 510 (and better batteries to my understanding) is the one i purchased, which still seems to be highly recommendable item. Still an all I'm sure at first I'll love any one of them I try heh. Oh and that RY4 wasn't horrid or nothing, just .. odd. Smoking basic menthol (newports before that) for years and going to something of that sort, was peculiar, and not sure it was in a good way lol. Thank you all for the warm welcome, and also i purchased Super T Delrin Drip-Tips, has any one ever used these and perhaps impressed/not impressed with them? Choose it more for the matching color, and fair price, hoping this was an "ok" move.

Haven't used drip tips, but I often drip at once and can tell you it was a wise investment. Constantly removing and reinserting an empty cart gets old. Also with the tobacco based flavors keep in mind that they are never going to taste like a burning cigarette. The closest you're going to get is one that tastes as unburnt tobacco smells.

A taste I'm willing to sacrifice for keeping my lungs I was quite pleased with what they call a "throat hit" with that RY4, just hoping the flavor is the only thing that needs balanced. I'm actually just tired of smoking, i do enjoy the taste, but I get heart burn to quick (being I chew at work, which will now change because i can Vape ) and just feel plain lousy after a smoke instead of the relaxation i use to get. Either way, I have not been this excited about quitting smoking ever!
ETA on eGo = 1 more day(hopefully)!
