Hello and welcome to ECF. It sounds to me that you are on your way to a better life. Keep it up!

 

[bigbob2322]

Just keep saying to yourself over and over I don't do that anymore each time a craving hits you.

I was "very" wanting to get away from all the negatives that came with smoking. I reminded myself often. Just don't scrimp on getting your Nic fix. Just focus on not smoking a cig.

vape as often as you smoked and when you smoked. Consider lowering the Nic in 6 months.

Lots of posts on this forum on how people quit smoking by vaping. Read the suggestions in the below thread for tips and tricks:

Vaping 2 years/still can't quit cigs

 

[NolaMel]

For me it took finding the right setup. I went back and forth for four years. The day I found the right type tank and mg of nicotine was my last stinky. Never looked back. Wishing you great success in your journey

 

[rosesense]

You are doing great, keep it up and welcome to the journey.

Hi ancient...Welcome to ECF...

I mention this only because it took me 2? 3? years to figure this out...but...if you click on "Watch Thread" at the top right of the first post (I usually check NO Emails on the Pop-Up that comes up)...then when you return to ECF you can click on "Watched Threads" in the 2nd GREY bar at the top...to get a list of your threads with UNread (by you) new posts...

Hi.smoked one yesterday non today so far,I find chain vaping stops the urge for tobacco,I couldn't get on with direct lung vaping much prefer mtl and use 16mg or 18mg tobacco e-liquid and use 88vape products although my favourite vape is with a vapo**** f*** with glass atomizer,I seem to have lost the craving and when it kicks in its easier to vape and it quickly subsides,keeping my fingers crossed,thanks for the support.

88vape = good.
Vapo**** = bad.

All the Vapo**** stuff is re-branded. That is a very cheap eGo battery (£1.89) with a 60p "H2" clearomizer. So, yes basically a £2.49 e-cig for £19.99.

I'm sorry to tell you this, but as I said in my post

There are also LOTS of UK brands that take hardware you or me could buy tomorrow from either England (Cheaper) or China (Cheaper still).

Vapo**** are a bunch of southern (Surrey) businessmen who hide the fact all their products are ripped off famous brands. It's such low quality stuff the mind boggles. If I can buy it for £2.49, they are probably paying £1.49.

I bet it comes with 'free' liquid too. Just get out of there.

It's happening losing the craving.

I got the latest tobacco flavour 88vape from Asda (97p) just now when I clicked and collected. I hope it's good 'un.
There's still 7 bottles of LiQuid upstairs too. Only a couple of tobaccos in that lot.
If it's bland... it gets the RY4 Double (TPA) treatment with a dash of caramel (Key West or Decadent) I know how to live.

 

[ancientvaper]

Welcome, and congrats on cutting down. Like Anna says, for some, vaping makes quitting easy ... for the rest of us it makes quitting possible.

Let us know what you are using and some around here may be able to give you advice on getting the most out what you have.

Iam using a Joytech EGO AIO,WITH NIC SALTS and my cheapies(88vape) in between,seem to have lost the craving not smoked for 6 days now and have gone off taste and smell of burning tobacco.Thanks for the encouragement.

The AIO uses the same coils as the old cubis tank. I rate them.

Glad to hear vaping is working for you, and CONGRATS on 6 days ... that's no small feat.

I have used an Ego AIO --- mine was prone to airlocking and not wicking well and I had to keep unscrewing the top to release air-bubbles from the bottom of the cubis coil every 6 to 10 vapes or so just so it would wick properly again. I had a cubis tank that did the same thing. Fortunately, I had a few trouble free Ego One tanks with rebuildable CLR coils to rely on, but these days I'm back to primarily squonking.

I squonk at home. You are right about the airlock on the Cubis tank. I found the Cubis better with variable power so less air-lock-releasing was necessary.

The Cubis with the 0.6 at 14-18 watts is still one of my favourites, although I am trying out lots of Pod systems.
