Hi Everybody,
I received my first e-cigs from Frank at Cigeasy.com last March 6th, and in a couple of weeks itll be my one year anniversary as a non-smoker/happy vaper. After 44 years of smoking tobacco cigarettes, and after 36 years of off and on trying to quit smoking always failing I knew from the first drag from the e-cig that this time . Things Were Going To Be Different. Thousands of dollars saved and thousands of cigarettes not smoked later Im amazed to report that my vaping experience has taken a giant leap forward.
Before I write about my quantum vaping leap I have to backtrack a little bit.
I bought Cigeasys KR808D-1 starter kit. I knew I didnt want to go the 3-piece route. I didnt want to futz around with dripping or the care and feeding of atomizers. I know there are a lot of people out there who are contentedly vaping 3-piece e-cigs but I wanted the simplest transition from analogs. Thats why I went with an automatic KR808 battery. I noticed there werent any buttons on a Marlboro and I wanted to duplicate the smoking experience as closely as possible.
And I was happy.
Then I started using a manual passthrough while at the computer. That was easier. No primer puffs. So I naturally started using manual batteries too. Then I tried one of the longer KR808s thinking the charge would last longer. I thought the combination of cigeasys Gold Label Deluxe cartomizers with a long KR808 battery was just about as good as vaping could get.
Then Frank came out with The Elegant Easy. It was amazing. An all-day battery that charged in less time than a KR808. A couple of extra Gold Label Deluxe carts and two fully charged Elegant Easys (I like to switch between flavors while I vape.) and I was good to go for hours and hours.
Could things get any better?
Sure.
Last fall I tried Franks new Elegant Easy XXL 1300, or as SSV2 from this forum described it, The Ultimate KR808D-1 Fat Bat. It was exactly what I was looking for. It fit my hand better than the original Elegant Easy and lasted seemingly forever. I bought a couple for my sister last Christmas and now theyre all she uses. We both agreed we had reached vaping nirvana.
I dont know if I would have liked the Elegant Easy XXL for my first e-cig. I needed to duplicate the analog experience to successfully make the switch. After months of using the KR808 batteries, and then switching to manual batteries, and then using the Elegant Easy it was no big deal. But going directly to the XXL wouldve been like going from cigarettes to smoking a pipe. It would have taken some time getting used to an entirely different feel. I think it was necessary, for me anyway, to make the progression over time from the KR808 to the XXL.
And now everything has changed again.
Last week I received Cigeasys latest: The Go-Go and the Go-Carts.
Its almost impossible to duplicate your first experience in anything. Because the second time you do something or the third, or the tenth, or the hundredth regardless of how pleasurable it is youve already done it.
But
The first drag I took on the Go-Go with a RY4 Go-cart was almost exactly the feeling I had when I took my first puff off my first e-cig last March.
It was incredible.
Now its days later and its still incredible.
I dont know if Im a heavy vaper or not. I went through at least 2 Gold Label Deluxe carts a day. A Go-cart holds 3 ML of juice and lasts me 2 full days.
And the Go-Go battery life?
Wait a minute Talk about coincidences
As I was typing about the Go-carts longevity my Go-Go battery light began to blink so I had to stop typing and put it on the charger for the first time since I got it in the mail last Thursday! I wasnt using it exclusively all that time. I like to switch flavors while vaping so Ive been using both Go-Gos constantly since 1:00 pm last Thursday. The battery needed charging today (Monday) at 2:00 pm.
Now thats battery life.
But I digress getting back to the discussion of the Go-Go and Go-carts the flavors I like (all tobacco, all the time) seem to have more subtlety and clarity using the Go-Go. Maybe Im being too subjective here I dunno but if I can borrow a term from V4L the WOW factors back and the Go-Gos got it..
To sum up:
Using Cigeasys Go-Go and Go-carts is how Im going to vape from now on. I have to get an adapter so I can use the Go-carts on my Elegant Easy XXL while the Go-Gos are charging.
It seems a little bit strange to leave the world of KR808 batteries and carts behind. After all without them I wouldnt have been able to finally get away from cigarettes. But this isnt a lateral move. For taste, throat hit, vapor production, battery and cart life, and ease of use The Go-Go and Go-carts are for me, the next best step in vaping.
Someday somebody will come out with a battery and cartomizers about the size of a Camel filter 100 that will last for days. But until then Cigeasys Go-Go and Go-carts rule.
Bob.
