First E-cig and first impressions

Hello everyone,

My first e-cig (a Prodigy V2) finally arrived in the mail today, and after waiting hours that felt like days for the batteries to charge, I have tried it out.

I picked up the Puresmoker CaSH sampler pack of e-juice (24mg) to try some different flavors out. I started with the straight Menthol, as I usually smoke menthols, and whoa, did it ever knock me for a doozy. E-cigs certainly hit in a way that is different from a traditional cig, but I think I will learn to adjust. I've also tried the blueberry and the Riskee juice flavors, with the blueberry being a bit too strong and artificial tasting for me, but the Riskee being my favorite so far.

I'm using the drip method, with about 3 drips every time the vapor starts to die down after a number of puffs, am I doing it right?

Also, I got the Prodigy V2 with the 510 adapter, along with a spare. How long to these atomizers typically last?

I will say that the Prodigy V2 is an incredibly well built product from my brief experience with it. I was lucky enough not to receive one of the defective ones where the post doesn't make contact (although I hear they are sending replacement parts free of charge to those who were effected) and mine pretty much worked out of the box. It has a nice weight to it, and I love the bare metal finish.
 
OMG!! Your first ecig was the V2? You really came outta the box swinging didn't you? It seems that you like it. How does it compare to analogs for ya?

To be honest with you, after I first drip, it is a lot stronger than the analogs. I was a pack and a half to two pack a day analog smoker, so I figured I should just bite the bullet and go for a big unit instead of wasting money on a mini that wouldn't do the trick, but wow, I didn't realize how much of a punch the V2 had.

I'm amazed how much it feels like a drag from a real cig. I don't really know what I was expecting, but I wasn't expecting what I got.

Overall I really like it thus far. My main motivation for this was so that I could have something I could smoke in the house without having my house smell like smoke. Now that I see how close it is to the real thing, I might have to pick up a 510 or something similar to use at work (the V2 won't fly there, I can't look like I'm smoking something that potentially even remotely looks like a crack pipe or other drug paraphernalia in front of customers on the lot) and kick analogs for good.

OMG! I ordered the Prodigy v2 for my 1st ecig and got it today, too. I'M LOVIN IT!! I also smoked (please notice the past tense LOL) menthol cigarettes. Fortunately I will be able to take mine to work with me. Was one of the main reasons I went with a mod, the long battery life for a 9 hour work environment. Best of luck with yours!!!
