I'm a 30-year smoker (about 15 cigs per day), and I'm fully convinced that e-cigs are going to change my life.

Earlier this week, I received my first ever e-cig...a Halo Triton starter kit & Qty. 8 30ml bottles of various Halo e-juice. I literally started vaping within a couple hours of receiving my shipment, and I haven't smoked a single cigarette since. That was 5 days ago.

The ease with which this transition has occurred is amazing to me. I've had a few mild cravings for a cigarette, but I attribute those more to habitual/situational cravings than actual nicotine needs. A few pulls on the e-cig immediately satisfied my cravings.

I honestly had (and maybe still have) no intention of giving up on my nicotine addiction. But e-cigs now give me a path that I never had before...a nicotine delivery method that satisfies my cravings, while also satisfying all the sensory needs attached with cigarette smoking.

And all this without the stink that permeates everything about a smoker, the yellow teeth, and most importantly the carcinogens! I now have hope that I may someday be able to phase nicotine out of my life completely. But for now, I can confidently say that, as long as I have e-cigs, I no longer need analogs. It's indescribable the elation that I feel in being able to confidently make that statement. I know a lot of folks on here can relate...

Hi graz and welcome to the wonderful world of vaping and thanks for sharing your experience. Everyone's path is their own and you seem to be on a very successful vaping path. Being 5 days analog free is HUGE. And for some of us, the transition was easier than for others.

Sounds like you have a good start and a great attitude toward vaping. It seems to me that the folks who get excited about vaping seem to be the ones to stick with it. Kind of cool that our lives can improve because of switching to vaping. I'm still a relative noob, but in the 4 1/2 months my health has really improved.

This is a great place to share your experience in a community of friendly and supportive folks. Hope your vape journey continues to grow and expand.

Keep the vape and namaste.
 
Welcome. I am new to the forum too. Been vaping nearly a year, but started with the cig look-a-like things, which were expensive and not satisfying, but now have better "equipment" and if an analog and my PV were side by side, I would not think twice. You will find that not smoking is easy so long as you keep plenty of ejuice on hand, back up batteries, atomizers, etc. on hand.

ccubed, thanks for the kind words. I did a lot of reading on this forum before making a purchase decision. Even considering the e-cig industry is somewhat in its infancy, the sheer number of choices are astonishing and more than a little confusing. This really seems like a great, supportive forum!

duuuuude... welcome and congratulations!!!! I felt the same way when I started. life changing isn't it??

I also started with a halo triton kit. awesome! and I still carry it with me no matter where I go.

Thank you for sharing!!!

What juices are you enjoying the most now? what nic level?

So...I bought Mystic, Cool Mist, Kringles Curse, Twisted Java, and Cafe Mocha (all 18mg). So far I've only tried the Kringles & the Twisted Java. I like them both a lot...the Java with my morning coffee, and the Kringles for all day. Seems like I'm getting a fuller vape from the Kringles.
