GAME CHANGER

[DingerCPA]

GAME CHANGERS:

My old "Big P" cartos. Held a whopping 6ml of juice, vaped with a PUNCH, and lasted freaking for-EVER (refill after refill after refill after...). I vaped these suckers for a full year or so, because I couldn't find anything that compared (get your minds outta da guttahs!).

Bad-boys were BIG, for sure. Those are Provis in 18650 mode that they're almost dwarfing. F'ugly too! Conversation starters though.

I still have about 10 unopened in their original wrappers. Saving them for... heck - I have NO idea!

ECF is giving me troubles, trying to "converse" with you. It's been happening, but I DON'T like when it's YOU on the other end of my frustration (with them).

I shall as soon as... <3

1st: the Juul - cut my cig habit in half.
2nd: Innokin T22 - much better than the Juul
3rd: Variable wattage batteries like the Zelos and eleaf Istick - reduced by 50% again.
4th: N.E.T juice.

I find it interesting that we all have had similar paths to where we are now, but often those paths went in different directions to realize our ultimate goal: harm reduction by vaping and eliminating an addiction to tobacco.

Many of us shared similar pieces of gear, such as cartomizers, cartotanks, or a Kayfun atomizer, or a cigalike, ego, or a Provari. For others it took what at one time was considered to be radical -- something called sub-ohm vaping or high wattage vaping.

Even though we all took similar yet different paths on our journies it sounds like most of us have found our personal game changer(s) to get us off of tobacco. It just confirms that there is no one correct way to vape and no right setup that is perfect for everyone. What ever works for you. The vast variety is a means to a common end.

Grats to all of the successful storytellers, and good luck to those who are still fighting the fight of their lives.

^^^Well said sir.^^^

Oh, and ECF. Seriously. Changed what I know, how I learned, helped me overcome obstacles and gives me an outlet. Cause my wife is absolutely SICK of hearing about vaping.

Yea, I know huh. When I start talking about something vaping related, I can see my Wife's eyes start to glaze over. She has Never smoked, or vaped.

You have other ways to hunt me down, Love....

 

[tazzle]

wow, how did I miss this thread? The stories! <3

For me, gamechanger one was Innokin VV v3 with Kanger Mini Protanks. The mini protanks were a big step up from CE4s, but demanded a good bit of fiddling. I still love the VV v3s, but don't have any good teeny toppers for them. During that period, my first box mod was the MVP.

Number two gamechanger was the eleaf iStick 20w with Nautilus Mini. Then came a couple of Provari Minis when I was finally able to get them here, and then various box mods with external batteries. The Nautilus Mini was my first super reliable, no-fuss, easy-peasey, always-works, tastes-great tank. And we are still using the iStick 20s!

Gamechanger three was the Kayfun Mini 3. Wotta jewel! I had used some earlier Kayfuns, but the Mini 3 was/is the RTA for me. Love.

Gamechanger four was the Ego One tanks with CLR coils, thanks to Katdarling. My only regret is not realizing that Greek customs was going to go full out #*!&ing crazy, and I wish I had ordered a lot more coils. They cost 3-4 Euros EACH here. smh.

ECF was definitely a gamechanger. I didn't feel like DIY was exactly a gamechanger when I started, I just thought it was fun ... but it did turn out to be a gamesaver when TPD came to town, and I was already making all my own juice and had stockpiled nicotine. If it hadn't been for ECF, I wouldn't have been alerted to do that.

Thank you all for everything through the years!

Sometimes I is a bit slow on the uptake, but you know that already.

Is everyone having issues with the convos, or do I need to reboot/clear cache/put a foot through my monitor?

I've been using pm today with no issues.

 

[52anddone]

I, for one, am Not having any issues so far, and I usually do by now. Try a reboot DPL. Keep your feet on the floor, and just do the 3 button boogie.
