Absolutely!!!! Like others, I tried an analog after vaping for a week. My reaction? EWWWWWWWWWWWWW!! It tasted awful, smelled and smelled awful.

Funny, the other day, my husband and I walked past a woman getting into her car. After we passed, I looked at my husband and said....OH MY GOSH!! Her car stank!!!!! The residual smell that is left behind in your clothes, home and car is something I do NOT miss one bit!! I love to hear my husband say...."Oooh...that smells good! What are you vaping today?"


My wife says the same thing, she likes the aromas that I vape and often asks me to blow a little vapour her way.

She is currently cutting down on sweets so asked if I could mix her a chocolate juice.
I whipped her up a coco juice @ 0% and put some in an old mini protank 2 on a stainless kanger evod batt. She vapes it like a cigar, savouring the flavour. Says it really helps with her chocolate cravings as it tastes just like hot chocolate.

When I got into vaping, e liquid seemed to be a substitute for analogs. Just good enough to keep me off them, but recently, after having quit analogs for so long, I actually tried an analog, and honestly, it was pretty nasty, and went right back to smoking my ry4, which is so much better. This was quite surprising, I never thought that I would actually enjoy vaping more than the "real thing". Anyone else feel this way?

Absolutely. I can no longer imagine ever going back. I like this vaping stuff way better.

And we're not alone. This forum is packed with folks who wouldn't go back. It's standing room only and the line stretches right around the block. ;)

Yes, analogs got nothing on vaping
Amen to that.

I also can't get over how awful they smell now. At first I thought that was just a thing us ex smokers would say to help us get through the transition, but it turns out to be the truth.
I've heard many ex-smokers (including myself) say the same thing. So either ex-smokers are more sensitive to the smell of tobacco smoke than non-smokers, or they simply experience a subconscious aversion to a bad habit that they worked very hard to kick. Whatever the reason, I'd rather hold a small turd under my nose for ten minutes than smoke another analog.

im gonna play devils advocate:evil: lol. but, with smoking cigarettes some cigs have complex flavors mostly non filters; you do know the only " premium" tobacco is used in non filters. filtered cigarettes are filtered for a reason they use floor sweepings in filtered camels and the good moist leaf in nf's. pipe smoking which i enjoy; i do for true flavor and aromatic purposes even though aromatics goop up the pipe so those are a no-go. more like Vanilla Cavendish and Burley tobaccos. but, cigs are not really smoked for taste they are merely a nicotine delivery device. hence, the reasons many have a bad opinion of vaping. i have vaped in the past in a way. i used blu and now its like i discovered a whole new world with my evod kit. blu helps but i still smoked and had urges to smoke still. with this i dont really.

If I had of been offered a PV and the flavours I've got now in the first week I started smoking 27 years ago I would have probably been vaping for 27 years lol. Seriously though the sensation and taste is the only thing that has come close to replacing the analogues for me and I don't even think about them anymore.

I started vaping 3 months ago and haven't looked back and yes I do like vaping more than smoking. Its funny but now when I see someone smoking analogs its like what cave you live in? analogs are the past vaping is the future!

I love that saying, Analogs are the past vaping is the future!
I haven't tried a analog in almost 2 months, so I guess that says I prefer vaping 100%.

I started vaping before I knew what vaping was on the cheap convenience store cig-a-likes, and those I found disappointing. They just weren't doing it for me, and time after time I went back to cigarettes.

Once I REALLY started vaping, I was done with those burning sticks of nastiness. The availability of flavors and devices has me moving forward, and never looking back to cigarettes.

So, yes, I DEFINITELY prefer my APV's to cigarettes!

I also feel the same way. I smoked 2 pks of analogs for over 40 yrs & after a couple of weeks vaping, gave away almost of full carton of cancer sticks that I was saving in my freezer. It's been over 2 yrs & haven't touched an analog. Vaping is so much better & a great hobby collecting & trying out new atomizers, etc.
