Thanksgiving turned out great. I used the E-Power all day long and it was the first day that I never smoked a single cigarette. I was the first "smoker" to arrive at the family gathering. Going outside is still part of my nicotine ritual. When I left for the door the BIL offered me an ashtray but I just said that I didn't use them anymore. Everyone was curious and very supportive of my using a pv. Using the E-Power during the two-hour drives was another great experience. No need to roll down the window or knock off ashes. I could put the pv down and drive with both hands (manual transmission guy) between hits.

Yesterday was day six with the E-Power. It was the first day that I realized that I truly enjoyed vaping much more than smoking. I learned that the E-Power 14650 can produce much more dense, delicious vapor than I really need and have graduated to smaller hits that more closely resemble the amount of smoke I used to use.

Some future juice suggestions because I too liked Camels, Halo Torque56 to me tastes like how a pack of Camels smell when they are freshly opened. Also Alien Visions Boba's Bounty has a really satisfying tobacco taste to it.
Thanks for the juice recommendations. I'm also interested in flavor recommendation for the Camel taste because I plan to purchase high strength nicotine juice, flavor, and dilute to suit to 80/20 pg/vg in the future.

After testing the new E-Power 14650 white LED switch (with lock-out feature) purchased from two different vendors this weekend I cannot recommend this switch with operation with the 1.7 LR XL (Resurrector) cartos. It's a dog. It just doesn't work with the Resurrectors, period. I went back to using my old blue LED hard plastic switch without the lock-out feature as it still works with the Resurrector cartos.

Bad news for E-Power 14650 dealers.

Otherwise, I love the E-Power 14650. It has the potential to be the best value mod out there. This is a very disappointing development for all mod fans.

Congratulations, I too have just given up and I am enjoying vaping so much I have no desire for cigarettes now. It's only been 4 weeks but I am sure the equipment makes a lot of diffference. I started with a 510 then Ego Tank and I just got a Go Go which I love. It definately is my favorite so far. I also found Menthol nice to vape even though I never smoked Mentol in the old days. My favorite flavor so far is Butterscotch strange I know but enjoyable.
Well done

I purchased the two new white LED switches from two different suppliers. I emailed them detailed descriptions of my switch problems about an hour ago. Andrew at CCV just got back to me pronto. He says the springs are the issue here. He will be sending me the new stiffer, gold-plated (better conductivity) springs as soon as he gets them which should be any day now. In the meantime I'm just going to use the old blue LED switch as it's working fine with the current spring.
