Hang in there, mmoss2. You've already made a huge step and have made it nearly two weeks completely analog-free. That is a huge milestone. It's easy to become overwhelmed. All it took us to smoke was a lighter, a pack of cigarettes and a place to light up. Outside of that the only thing that could go wrong would be lighting the wrong end of the cigarette or breaking one. Left your lighter at home? You can find lighters and matches everywhere, even if you have to use someone else's. Ran out of smokes? Just run to the store and buy another pack. With vaping there is a bit more leg work and planning involved. I, personally, love it and have made vaping both a lifestyle change and a hobby. I feel a bit like a Girl Scout preparing my "kit" before I leave the house. It may seem crazy, but preparing everything to insure I won't be left in a lurch and tempted to buy a pack of analogs gives me an additional sense of purpose.

I experiment with different accessories (cartos, standard 510 atties, low-resistance atties, different drip tips, etc.) and different juices, but I find my perfect vaping set-up is this:

Silver Bullet
18650 protected batteries and charger
510lr atomizer from Puresmoker
Puresmoker Tonic Appleonia and Bluemist Vaping Caramel Tobacco
Wild Pawn drip tip

Everything else is bonus stuff. If I were stranded on a desert island I would want that small handful of things with me for the ultimately satisfying PV and juice set-up. Once you get the set-up you find most enjoyable it all falls into place and vaping goes from seeming like a daunting chore fraught with uncertainty (will my battery die? Will my atomizer die? Will I run out of juice?) to an exciting thing. Vaping has its highs and lows. I had days where no juice I tried tasted like I'd read about in reviews. My atomizers were ...... all over my batteries. I kept burning juice on the atties. I'd blow a cartomizer. But then I have days where everything goes just right and that makes pushing through the lows worth it.
