Well I suppose it's time to stop lurking.
I was a roll up smoker, about 15 a day.
Been vaping for 42 days now, my experience started when my partner quit smoking (using patches!), and he likes to read engadget, in which there was a review of e-lites e cig.
As I've tried and failed quite spectacularly in the past to quit, he pointed this article out to me and suggested I try an e cig.
I'll be honest I had no intentions of quitting right then so I read the article and thought no more about it, but a few weeks later I was bored surfing the web and decided to read the article again, and the comments from the engadget readers. The general concensus between these people was that e-lites were a god awful brand, and that the reviewer should really try something like a riva 510, and so that's what I googled, and ended up at liberty flights.
However! I took one look at the riva 510 and thought 'there's no way I could smoke something that looks like that!' and proceeded to scour site and the rest of the net for something a little more cig shaped.
My seach led me to e-cig-reviews, and I watched many of Scott's videos, about 8 hours worth to be honest! I eventually settled on the ROK, a super mini with a pcc that looks like a cigarette packet. Scott praised this highly as a good beginners e cig, and when it arrived I was inclined to agree. I took one puff and was converted instantly.
I kept my tobacco in it's usual spot in my desk drawer though, just to trick my brain I suppose. I wasn't quitting, I could smoke if I wanted to. I just didn't want to.
I used the ROK for over a week, but I got annoyed with the frequency I had to rotate the batteries in the pcc. Also the suppliers themselves didn't sell blank cartomizers, so even though I'd bought my own juice (SD4, RY4, coffee) I'd still have to fork out for a pack of 10 prefilled when my original 5 which came with the starter kit died.
So I looked again at the riva 510, the cig I'd told myself I could never use. It looked shiny and new and special now, so I placed an order for the lite bundle in black. When it came, one of my attys was doa, and the other did not want to stop tasting like primer. It ...... me off for a good 2 hours or so while I puffed away, turning myself into the caterpillar from Alice in Wonderland. The taste eventually came but it seemed like hard work, moreso the frequency in which one has to top up carts, so my next order from liberty flights was a 5 pack of boge 2.0 cartos....
......and OH MY GOD. I'd eventually found my set up. Riva 510, boge 2.0, drip tip on the end.
I'm still on the hunt for my all day vape juice, but to be honest, I'm having fun sampling flavours for now.
