I started vaping a month ago (haven't had an analog since) using 11mg cartridges and juice. Just ordered 3 bottles of 0mg (chocolate, cappaccino, and Coffee) to start cutting and using straight (if I can). Anyone gotten rid of nicotine completely? I like the tastes of juice and want to continue vaping, but would also like to start getting rid of the nicotine. Anyone with good results?

I've gotta admit, I have very little interest in cutting out the nicotine. I had very little interest in quitting smoking except for the ashes everywhere, constant burns on furniture,utterly unrealistic cost due to taxes, persistant cough...oh! and fear of death!

Aside from those things, I'd have been a smoker for life and happy at it. I vape cause I removed those things but continued to enjoy the relaxing effect the nicotine has.

I *could* drink decaf coffee too, but I *really* don't want to :D..

Having said that, If you really want to quit nicotine for some reason, I'd say it'd have to be far easier to quit from vaping than smoking, primarily because there's like 3 or 4 *other* mind altering (used loosely..antidepressants mostly) things in analogs that make them even harder to quit.

I echo those statements in spades. (except for the death part). People have asked why I continued smoking, for years. My answer was always because I enjoy smoking. I'm not certain I cared after all this time if it eventually killed me. We all have to go sometime. Ashes, burns, cost, all big deals in my book. Ruined many a good pair of slacks.

I drink New Orleans style coffee with chicory double strength. Love the stuff.

i use 18 right now my goal is to be 0 in 2 months.

I am using 16 or 18 with battery, and 6 or 8 with passthrough. I may eventually cut down, but at this point I am content! I have no desire for a smoke. Maybe in a month or so, I may try the 6 or 8 on batteries and give the 0 a try on the passthrough. Maybe not. I am enjoying this, and I am no longer a smoker! YAY! And that is HUGE for me! ;)

Chicory? FOR REAL? I love coffee with chicory. I almost never have it, gotta order some now.

Ok everyone has good points, and nice posts to add up to their talley :D
But here you go OP (that's original poster)
Today I received some 0mg from V4L (THANKS STEVE :D) so I decided to be a ZERO HERO for a day to see if I can ( I was an 1.5 to 2 pack a day Pal Mal/LUCKY's smoker)( I normally vape 11-18mg)

Here is the vertict 6 hours into the day still using 0mg(I am in a total different time zone :D ) ok I took one 6mg puff mid point of another flavor, but I didn't inhail :D

I would asume if I was determined to quit nic all together if I wanted, but I am not sure if I am ready for that leap (actually I don't want to set my goals too high in order to avoid disappointment)

I say Go for it if that's your Goal

Good LUCK

FYI (that's For Your Information :D ) the flavors just POP at low nic levels but you do sacrifice throat hit at least it seems (of course I have only tried the PB cup at zero who knows I think pineable would have a bit that would compinsate for the lack of throat hit) maybe I should do a few vids of the zeros and post them all tomorrow.....hmmm we'll see

Cutting the Nic, is a definate trend, I look at all our orders, I cannot comment on the # of people I see doing it, but, it is substantial:D

It also make me work harder, to make sure our flavors remain strong enough, on the low, and no nic scale:p

I am doin it, cause, y'all are worth it. I also have VG ssmple coming in, so I can determine, if it meets the SMILIN level of approval. Will let you all know in a couple weeks:shock:

Steve:cool:

That is what I notice about the low nics - not much throat hit even with the passthrough. Still, nice vape. I will eventually cut down too, but I don't want to rush it, I am just so glad not to be a smoker anymore. Feeling better too!

Do the videos though! I love watching the videos! ;)

Thanks for the replies. I was a chain smoker (almost 3 packs a day) truth be told i'm a bit of a chain vaporer. Not so bad with batteries but when I'm on my pc with the pass-thru most nights i go to bed dizzy. Trying to avoid that as much as possible. Already got the ship notification so hopefully by friday i'll be giving the lower nic a shot. thanks again.

Know what you mean! I am trying to find just my right level seems like different levels suit different times of the day ( flavors too) That said I know what you mean about going to bed all dizzy I don't quite like the dizzy feeling And I want to vape just to vape sometimes ( ok almost all day if im sitting with the pass thorugh :p ) and have perhaps an 11 to 24 or so arround for when I need the nic. I am gonna try cutting the nic, but mainly cause I thought after smoking 1 and half to 2 packs a day for 24 years ( camels full str) meant I needed the high test stuff and its really too high for me!:confused:
Wishin you luck and let us know how it is and what works for u ( I am hoping to reach the point sometime in the future although I don't think I will ever give up on vapring even if it is the 0 mg ) :D

Scott58 love your avatar reminds me of that old sitcom V with robert england ( loved that show! )
