can you DYI WTA, i am a DYI(er) and i have been doing so for a couple months now..... much much cheaper.
Aroma sometimes has unflavored WTA available, which might be something you can use.
And I could have sworn I recently saw that they had WTA concentrate for sale.
You should give them a call, the owner likes to talk on the phone.
What is this person talking about, I think he needs to see a shrink. My friends that smoked when I started vaping, when they tried a few puffs off of my 2.4 mg pv said that they got head-rushes from the Nic. Now they are all vaping, and only one (NUT like this guy) is still smoking and vaping at the same time. I don't get it, smoking and vaping are the same, except vapor tastes better and is more pleasurable with a great sense of FREEDOM!
Once you read the rest of the thread you might get it.
Smoking and vaping aren't the same.
They are close enough for many, if not most though.
I hear ya
MOST people can go right to vaping because they're only addicted to the nicotine
SOME still feel like they're missing something
ALL should remember that the first days and weeks not smoking are a detox period .. your body is use to functioning under the load of huge amounts of chemicals .. and it's finally free to rid itself of them .. and it does take time .. and you will feel it .. but it's not displeasurable in any way ... it's just not "normal"
In a year and some I thought about a cigarette exactly 3 times. On one of those occassions I actually lit one and regretted it most horribly. That ... tasted like the worse possible thing I can imagine. So NO; I no longer think about analogs and wish all smokers were vapers (for purely selfish reasons). I was working outside in the heat and humidity yesterday and my batts went dead in my GLV. Instead of runnin' back to the office for fresh ones I toughed it out. It was surprisingly easy and don't know how much longer (past the 3 hours I'd already gone) I could have gone w/o vapin'. I raelly don't want to find out, but I'd rather take a .... whoopin' than smoke again.
I guess I am a nut case too then. Also living with a chain smoker makes it hard when you get stressed,I truly think a lot of it is a mental addiction.I will be out somewhere and the craving will still hit me sometimes.My sister-in-law quit for 15 years and never stopped wanting one,she didn't have it tho.She died from lung cancer a few years back.If it gets really bad I take one of my DH old butts from an ashtray and that kills the craving real quick.YUCK...
I switched to vaping in Sept of 2010, almost two years ago and I still have my "wish I could have a cig" moments. Although I do have smokers and cigs around me, I don't dare pick one up because I know how badly it stinks and I will hate it.
So, just for the sake of conversation, why do you wish you could have one?
The desire comes to me mostly when I have a serious decision to make. It is moments like that when I would take a cig, and go to a quiet corner to think things out. So I remember the stink, grab my Reo and go to the quiet corner.
Good call... one of the main reasons I smoked was to get away and be alone with my thoughts as needed.
Vaping doesn't require that you do that.
No reason (excuse) to get away.
But it can help to get away anyway, so I take my vaping equipment outside and use a bit of WTA juice.

Best tip I can give someone who misses that feeling of a cigarette (the head floating) or intense feeling in the lungs, would be to get one bottle of tobacco flavored liquid in a higher nicotine level and hit that when you're really craving a cig. That worked for me during the hard times.
After 2 years, I don't crave a cigarette, don't need WTA extracts, enjoy my vaping and nicotine, BUT every time I enter a convenience store, liquor store, etc where there is the large display of packs, I know I could buy a pack and be back to full time smoking in a week. I don't buy the pack, but the thought is always in the back of my mind.
Cigarettes are a beat up '54 Ford pickup in bad need of a ring job. Vaping is an electric car that can run 0-60 in 3 seconds.
Even under 3 weeks quit I don't think of cigarettes. They were in my life for 3/4 of my life. We aren't separated, the divorce is final.

Occasionally, I get a "craving" for .... IDK...
Quick nic hit,
WTA effects,
Form factor
But whenever I smell someone smoking, it reminds me of the stink, crappy taste, noxious fumes of leaf burning chemical filled garbage. So I "remember" the bad things out weigh the so-called positive effects. It's kind of funny, but if cigs were odorless I'd probably have "failed" long ago, as irrational is that is.
I've avoided it for over two years, including WTA so far, and hope I can continue to avoid it. Vape. Vape. Vape.

I still find myself in situations that used to be a trigger for a 5-cigs-in-a-row session. I have yet to go back to cigarettes. This morning I had a huge shouting match with my supervisor (actually, he shouted, I just steamed...lol). My first thought was, "Time for a cigarette"! It passed very quickly and I vaped all the way home. I'm glad I am able to get past the occasional trigger.....
