Ecig with dad NOT a hit, went into his drawer, back to analogs :(

I think that once the novelty wears off, unless you really want to quit, even an ecig won't do it. I found quitting to be incredibly easy with the ecig, but have to admit that after months of being analog free, the thought of a real one still sounds appealing at times. Until your dad has a real desire to be smoke free, think you may end up being disappointed. All you really can do is wait til he is ready, then have the stronger juice available. The good news is that he has been exposed to this now and knows there is an alternative that works out there, not to mention how nasty a real cig tastes now and how much nicer vaping is! Good luck.

I would not be using mine now if it was someone else's idea rather than mine. In fact, I bought my first e cig over a year and a half ago, tried it out a bit, declared it trash and put it in a drawer. I did not like the taste at all. Then last Dec. I started playing with it again every once in a while and started looking for something better. I ordered a DSE901 for $30 from Ebay and changed my mind about the concept and gradually the taste. Shortly after that, I was using it more and more, although I did still smoke cigarettes also. Finally, I reached the point where I was smoking only 1-5 cigs a day, preferring the e cig the rest of the time. Just because it's in the drawer now does not mean it will stay there. I suggest just letting your dad decide on his own to give it another try.

Maintenance, e-cigs are high maintenance compared to analogs. What could be simpler than light, smoke, and toss? If it wasn't such a pain there would be a lot more of us.

Hey Intheb0x don't loose heart. You know how us guys can be. We try, get discouraged, throw it in the drawer and then later on get it back out and go to town. At least you got the foot in the door.

Yeah, that sounds about right..my hubby tried the ecig for one day and gave up..he said he might try it again (since I quit 3 months ago) I was just asking him last night if he wanted me to get him a 510 but he never answered me.
