First Post, But Long--time Reader

Hi everyone at ECF! I been vaping and reading ECF for almost 9 months. There's been so much great advice and ideas, I want to thank everyone for their participation.

After smoking for almost exactly 20 years, I've been analog free for 35 days! I am hoping to learn even more about the world of vaping, and hopefully help support some others trying to get started.

Hi, Hubble! <wavin'>
So nice to meet you and congrats on your 35 days! Never thought it would happen, did you? I'm still in awe that I quit.
What products have you been using? I've just discovered CE3s and I'm beyond happy with them.

Hi Hubble and welcome to the forum. Stick around and post often...loads of info and support here!

Reading the forum for 9 months you probably already know all there is to know! Congrats on 35 days.

Hey. Congrats on the 35 days! Hope you feel alot better now that you have quit the stinkies! What kind of set up are you using?

I'm using an chrome Apollo vTube with 3 ohm single coil XL cartos with 3.5 tanks about 95% of the time. I like to try new flavors on Boge cartos. I just haven't been able to get into dripping straight onto the atty. I really got started vaping with a Magma Tankomizer and I still like holding a cigarette-size pv. I never thought I'd quit. My hubby, mother, and close friends are all still smokers, so it's tough. (Hubby is very supportive, smokes outside, and also vapes with me with his own vTube. It's a big help.) I'm trying to go nicotine free as quickly as I can. My doctor is very supportive of e-cigs as well, preferably 100% VG and nic-free. Most of my e-juice is 4mg-8mg right now. It definitely lacks a good throat hit, but it's fun to try the different mixes and flavor.

I'm a former FL Gulf Coaster! I've enjoyed many a fun night in Biloxi!

Sounds like you know your stuff and what you like. It's good that you're already down to 4-8mg. I'm gonna try and get some less % nic juices!

I week by week dropped from 30+ mg down to 12mg without noticing much difference. Now that I am under 12mg, it's a bit of a struggle. I also gradually cut way back on analogs before quitting entirely. My last week I only smoked one cig a day. I think that helped.

Try getting 2 bottles of the same flavor, but 2 levels of nicotine. You can mix them together to make the step down even more gradual. I tried going from 8mg to zero - not pretty.

I couldn't have quit without ECF. I tried switching to vaping on my own a couple of years ago with a Blu. Crash and burn. My hubby found the forum and helped me sort through it, he knows it even better than me! And not only have I quit, it's turning into a great hobby, too.

I think it is good you decided to join the discussion. ECF is a great method for communication about e-cigs and support from others. Glad you decided to not be 'silent' anymore.
Good luck, and congrats on being analog free. That is a big step!
