Year ago, November 1, 2010... I had been a 23yr. pack a day smoker. My life was in turmoil with my father passing away in July. Total shock to all of us. The man was a 5th degree black-belt, physically fit,, and happy in life. A genetic heart condition had taken my Dad, unfairly. Really the only thing that disappointed my father about me, in his whole life, was MY smoking. I had tried quitting many times before, throughout the years. Actually was successful in late 90's, when my "ex"-wife had told me she was pregnant,, Quit 'cold turkey' for 2 years. Rather it was divine intervention or something else, my quest had begun. I had to quit smoking NOW!!

I like to think of the journey as a series of "graduations", if you will. Graduating PRE-SCHOOL is how I view my 7 week class with the BLU electronic cigarette. LoL. I did quit smoking that FIRST day vaping on that little stick... always with Dad in my mind. I ..... you not... never looked back, day ONE. I was off to the races... Never to smoke again. It became a struggle, too much work and 'modding' for little payoff and vapor. I needed more. I started lurking the forums and YouTube.

REVOLVER was my next class. What a great company! .. and Matt,, you the best. Always puts the customer first, top notch, I tellya. I had found my "stick of choice".. the INFINITY ION. This device kicked my ..... I soon scurried through all the models in pretty quick succession.. :p settling for the longer lasting and bigger battery TALON tank system,, all the while, experimenting with dripping, carts, blue foam, fluval, cartos, clearos, tanks.. etc. etc.. then back to dripping. HaHa! We all know the story. LoL. Been there, done that. Revolver also taught me soo soo much from the "Vapor Lounge" forum. It really is a great group of Vapires.. all with unique stories that eerily started out as mine did.:blush:

If you have read this far into my silly story, Thank You. The reason I am putting it out here is to show my true appreciation to the REVOLVER team. My successful 1st year of being smoke FREE on November 1 has to be accredited to this great company! Kudos to you all... but I'm graduating HIGH SCHOOL. I'll still be around the lounge,, but I am delving into the world of variable voltage. My ProVari has been shipped. Ohh, don't get me wrong here. I still gots' the Revolver gear as backup... and I plan on experimenting with voltage on these badass G2 attys. :p I have watched this company grow this past year.. even opening a store in Toledo! I wish nothing but the best... And I will ALWAYS recommend ReVolver products as the BEST dang' Alternative Edge to Smoking. Class dismissed))

LiveWell.

Hi Chancey!
I too have run the gamut of e cigs. I know your story, because it is a familiar one to me as well. But in my case it was Father in Law, and he passed last August due to complications from smoking. My journey was familiar as well. With Blu being my kindergarten, and Revolver being High School. Have seen you there quite a bit over the last year. My hubby got me a Pro Vari as an early Christmas present. And cause it was coming up on my 1 year anniversary as well. One year in September for me. :) You won't regret any of your pvs. My Talon is still my best little buddy. Use him in public. Cause Vari is too big, and I am a lady. Revolver will still get my business as well, cause I cannot DIY my favorite e juice (Tobacco Red). And the people are great. Love their customer service, and products. It feels like my knowledge has grown over the last year, with using different products from Revolver. Thanks Matt! You still rock. :) and Congrats Chancey!
