I've been trying to quit for the past 9 days using njoy Kings. I just smoked a cigarette for the first time. Iwas lovely. And I feel guilty and bad. Damn this is hard.
Danm! Just smoked my first anaolg in a week!

try upgrading your device. Sounds like the King is still at least marginally unsatisfying to you.Id recommend an ego twist or another pv that regulates the voltage.
i dont blame you. those njoy kings just dont cut it. get an ego twist and some 24mg juice and you'll kick the habit. its not going to feel like a cigarette, but its going to work.
Don't be hard on yourself. How many cigarettes didn't you smoke the last 9 days eh? You may still be looking for "that flavor" or "that hit" or you need a stronger dose of nicotine for those "must light up a cig" moments. Keep positive and congratulations on your achievment so far!
Just try to take this experience and learn from your "mistakes" If something about the King contributed to this try to figure out what it was and look for something better.
It's confusing with all the choices. Can you be a little more specific on what I should get. Any info is much appriciated Thanks!
Are you looking for something that looks and is sized like a cigarette or are you okay with something bigger? Ideally how long would you like a battery to last? These question will help us help you..
There's a high that I get from cigs that I don't get from the cig-alikes. I need to upgrade to the vapes, but I don't know what to get.
Don't beat yourself up over it.. My brother was going back and forth between analogs and an e-cig for quite some time before he was comfortable with the switch.
It's in the past.. What you decide to do from here is what you have control over, and that's what matters the most!
It may be hard at first, but giving up Analogs is well worth it in my opinion. Keep at it! Even after a short period of time, making the switch was well worth it to me.
Analogs are sneaky little bastar.. Hmm. What's the policy on minor use of profanity on this forum? We're all adults here, right?

I really like that the Njoy is so much like a cigarette. That helps. But there's something missing.
You might want to look into WTA juices....they have whole tobacco alkoloids in them instead of just nicotine and give that calming effect or high felt by some people. You can check them out here Whole Tobacco Alkaloid Eliquid WTA Aroma Ejuice
I felt the same after buying a cheap ecig(FUMA) from work and spent the last week craving real cigarettes. But today, I just recieved my new kit from Jet and my, has it been an improvement. Try upgrading, once you find something with a little more of a throat hit, it'll help, so I've found anyway and the same goes from others I talk to, especially depends on the taste. Mix throat hit and taste and it's all you're looking for, at least that's what I think.
Try the Standard Volt Kit from Smokeless Image. They have great customer service should a battery be bad upon arrival, the quality is great, and the prices won't spontaneously incinerate your wallet. I just got my Volt X2 900mAh (basically more cigar sized and I got the longer lasting battery) with a clearomizer (kind of what it sounds like, clear, and holds more liquid, 1.6mL to be exact), 2 5mL bottles one Bahama Blizzard and the other Apple, and I got it USPS priority mail shipped, all for a hair less than $45. I can take a picture of it next to an everyday item if you would like a size reference if you think you might be up for something larger.
The Volt Standard kit will come with 2 batteries (I recommend the the 78mm version for $2 more for longer battery life, little bit longer than a Marlboro 100), a USB (for laptop) and a wall charger, and 5 cartomizers in select flavor/strength. I know many people recommend a third battery if you are a heavy smoker. I liked the Blu's I was vaping because they were compact, but didn't want to deal with recharging 2 or 3 batteries, so I went with the larger X2 with a higher mAh for $5 extra

New clearomizer for the smaller batteries in the Standard Kit. Holds more juice, but will make it longer

For myself the start, aside from the cigg alikes was a joyetech ego setup. The tanks system they use tho can be finicky and leaky. On the good side tho, the manual battery they, and others use, is among the most versatile.
Please, stick with it.

Ok, let's try to pin down exactly what you're looking for
Before I get into it, I'm still a bit of a "noob" when it comes to e-cigs. I've read quite a bit, but I don't have as much personal experience as others here.
Does the size of your ecig matter?
Right now, excluding what I call "advanced" PVs, there's 3 general sizes of e-cigs
1. cig-a-like. These are small, cigarette sized e-cigs(~8mm wide). Examples being the NJOY King or the JoyeTech eRoll
2. cigar-style. Medium sized, a bit smaller than cigars(~15mm). Example being JoyeTech eGo(there's others, but the eGo kits are usually a good start) The eGo-Twist toes the line to "advanced" PVs because you can adjust performance.
3. OMGIlooklikeapornstar-sized. Kinda biggish, 20+mm wide. Examples being the Provari, JoyeTech eVic, etc. Note: I consider these to be starter-"advanced" PVs
Are you looking for ease-of-use or would you be ok with tinkering?
"Easiest": The "easiest" ecigs would be stuff like NJOY, or some types of clearomizers. For the most part, "easiest" ecigs are at least partially disposable.
Tinkerish: These types you can either treat parts as disposable or can be easily messed with. Examples would be getting a battery to re-use and going with the Vivi Nova or JoyeTech eGo tanks
Hephaestus: These can still be disposable, but are better suited(and cheaper) to be rebuilt by hand.
What are you looking for in juice?
Throat hit? Flavor? Nicotine levels?
Each of these can have an effect on what type of carto/clearo/tank system you go with
Don't let it get you down.. It's very hard for someone to quit with a snap of a finger. I went back and forth too. You come to the point where you just won't want one anymore. I still want one sometimes but I just say no and vape on
With a good device and juice you won't get the analog cravings. My first e-cig was a disposable "evolution" brand e-cig and I craved an analog half the time I used it. I have no cravings for them anymore. Not with the volt starter kit I bough and definitely not with the monster Vision spinner I have now.
You may not believe this and may not want to hear it...
But vaping is not smoking.
Yeah stunning I know LOL.
But the sooner you stop trying to find a replacement for your cigarettes... and instead begin to look for a satisfying Vape, the sooner you will lose the desire to smoke.
Take some of the suggestions here... look at the ego twist or vision spinner.... They are a little bigger than cigarette sized but still plenty portable and offer so many advantages over the cig-a-likes.
Throw a Stardust or kanger t3 clearomizer on there and you'll no longer be a smoker trying to quit... you'll be a vaper who wonders why people smoke.
