Hopefully this wont be too long of a post...

I would like to start by saying a big THANK YOU to the creators and admin of this wonderful forum for taking the time and effort to help educate those of us who are "lost" and trying to find our way through the VERY confusing and intimidating world of e-cigarettes and vaping.

I heard about e-cigarettes only a few weeks ago and began doing some online research into the topic and WOW, talk about information overload! I had put an item in my shopping cart on a website and was ready to checkout. I decided to look a few more places for information, when I ran across this forum. Thanks to the information on here, I found that product was not recommended at all.

I ended up ordering a Joye 510 Elite Kit from nhaler along with an assortment of juices. I am patiently waiting for it to arrive in the mail :|

After a few days of reading threads on this forum, I realize that I may be an anomaly. I do not consider myself a "smoker". I have smoked on and off since I was 12 years old, but the last five years I have been pretty much smoke free. My problem comes in when I hang around people who smoke. I end up smoking a whole pack or more in one night, and I wake up the next day hating life. With NYE coming up, we shall see if this works!

I already see this as becoming a "habit" for me but I prefer to think of it as more of a hobby. I have always very thoroughly enjoyed smoking minus the bad breath, health effects, etc. My 510 has not yet arrived and I am trying to figure out how to talk my wife into letting me order the xhaler and accessories now!:D

Nobody can say for sure, but I think you've made a very wise decision with your purchase of a 510 and I also honestly think that you may be pleasantly surprised with your first vaping experience.

Just remember when your 510 arrives to clean your atty first because it comes direct from the factory with a preservative oil to prevent oxidation on the internals. If you don't clean the atty first, then your first few vapes are going to taste pretty disgusting.

I just opened up a new atty for my 510 tonight and what I do is put a shot-glass 2/3 full of water in the microwave for 15 seconds which makes it boil. I take it out (without burning my fingers) and immediately drop my new atty into it and let it soak for a few minutes. I then take it out and hold it under a light stream of hot tap water for about 1 minute. I then blow it out in both directions (from both ends) into a tissue. I take a corner of a tissue and carefully insert it into the open end to soak up any excess water. I then put 3 drops of my e-juice directly onto the bridge inside the atty, put my cart on and take my first few vapes into my mouth and blow them right out (no inhale). Making sure I wait about a minute between vapes to allow the atty to cool a bit. After a few vapes, you'll be in vaping heaven.
