Thank you, again, Radiokaos, Dvap and Snork, for addressing my concerns. I am now eagerly waiting for the Aroma package i hope to receive today or tomorrow. I am sure that by adding your advice, as a proverbial "grain of salt" [metaphorically, that is; I am not really going to mix any salt into the eliquid], my chances of succeeding at this new "noble art" of vaping, will remarkably improve.
Cheers,
I received rather swiftly my order of Aroma Ejuice, namely the RY4 –WTA, and the Unflavored WTA.
Preamble:
1. I am addicted to a rigid daily ration of 2 packs of Marlboro Red, since my teens, for about 30 years.
2. Last month, I have purchased a Kamry K1000 epipe from the store where I routinely purchase my supply of cigarettes, along with an eliquid that, although excessively sweet and chemically flavored, generated a scintilla of hope that this could weaken my cigarette addiction.
3. In my search for a suitable substitute for tobacco, I ventured on a number of unimpressive, when not unpleasant, experiences with an assortment of eliquids from a variety of websites [which I will not detail, to avoid an exercise in futility, as I subscribe to the maxim "de gustibus non est disputandum"].
4. Finally, I joined this forum, learned a few critical things that had originally eluded me and discovered Aroma Ejuice and its WTA addition, with thorough and helpful explanations from its pioneering ownership and Dvap [whom I cannot thank enough for recommending this product].
I received my Aroma Ejuice order rather swiftly, 10ml of RY4-WTA, 24 Nicotine level.
The initial reaction was disappointing as the RY4 revealed a dash too powerful, in terms of strength and flavor with thick, sweet clouds of vapor lingering over my head and a rather pungent "room note". I decided, however, to add distilled water, and I ended up diluting the RY4 by adding 1/3 distilled water.
Now, let me jump to the conclusion… since that first sip [as it is called in pipe smoking], my hand now instinctively reaches out for the pipe filled with RY4 and my palate finds cigarettes remarkably repulsive.
I love this RY4, diluted with 1/3 distilled water [and ordered a few more bottles, as the first one only has a few drops left]. It is indeed sweet, with that burnt sugar scent that evokes cotton candy and caramel, but in the fashion of a flavorful pipe tobacco, rather than in the chemically-enraged-liquid way I suffered before. It is my entire day "vape" and has "nearly" freed me from cigarettes. Certainly Nicotine and WTA seem to cast the magic spell, as correctly theorized by Dvap.
The sole exception to my success is the morning coffee, I still smoke a few cigarettes then with my two morning cups of coffee, until 10AM, then RY4 takes over until the last puff, before lights are out. Hence, I also ordered a few more different flavors [555, Turkish Blend and Virginia Blend] as I hope one or two will fit in my daily rotation and defeat the morning cigarette craving, as well.
I will report on those, in due course.
