I have been lurking here for about three weeks now and have gained a wealth of knowledge. I decided it was time to join. I only have experience with the KR808's, three different kits. I have been vaping for one month now. I only started vaping to see if it could get me through the work day, and it has done that. I have found that I enjoy it more than analogs most of the time except for first thing in the am., after meals and one at the end of the day. I have gone from smoking twentyfive to thirty to about seven a day. When I first started I was using Chinese PG only liquid, which made my throat sore, but have since changed to at least 80 PG /20 VG (Domestic) mix and have not had that problem since.

So far the smoothest draw for me has been a bottle of 50/50 mix but the flavor was not my favorite, not bad though.
Haven't had an analog since March 19, 2009. 
But don't feel bad about still having one here and there, you will get there!!!

I began the same way as you have DRGN and discovered that if I vaped a higher nic juice first thing in the morning, just to get the motor running, I was able to cut out that first cig.... then after a little while cut out the last thing at night smoke too! Process took about 10 days for me and if I vaped a lot in the evening the desire to have that last smoke before bed disappeared. I smoked for 20 years and within 2 weeks of vaping had stopped tobacco completely and haven't had one in 6 months now. I didn't realize how bad I felt until now and the difference is amazing! Hope you can keep it up and kick the analogs for good.
I just quit analogs myself. I almost gave up though.
I started with a Halo G6 and Halo menthol mixes, but soon found out I just didn't like there liquids TH.
I bumped up to the E-Power 14650 and got some e-liquid from Todd over at VAPERITE. I am now analog free. Had a couple cravings so I took a few puffs off an analog after I'd quit for a couple days...., taste like a dam ashtray!
Best of luck!

That is impressive, congrats. I think I still need to find the correct combinations of liquid strength for the morning. I have tried to vape first thing after I wake up but it makes me cough like mad. After my morning analogs I am good until after I eat, of course I am vaping every fifteen minutes or so throughout the day.
Thanks for the encouragement, I have tried uping the nictone for the first thing in the morning, but it seemed to make things worse. Once or twice in the last month I have skipped an analog after a meal or the last one at night but not often. That is amazing that you completely switched over after only ten days. I guess everyone has a different pace with this.
CUOFFRDGA,
That is the same setup I currently carry, the Halo G6 and I am using Truepure and Coolmist. I like the liquid but it just seems to be missing something, probably the tobacco taste. My analogs are Kools. I aslo have and extra long manual bat for around the house, usually with and XL CE2.

LoL. Yeah, I was a Marlboro Menthol 72 (green pack) smoker and to be honest..., I loved my menthols.
I tried Trupure after seeing the reviews, but found I liked Cool Must better. There both too harsh on my throat though.
I do construction and the charging of the 808d-1 batteries was just more trouble than I had time for.
My e-power battery will last all day and the Mega cartomizer last all day. Size wise is more like a cigar.
I got some Natural cinnamon in 18mg from todd and one of his menthol tobaccos. If you want good tobacco flavor with your menthol, Highly recommend them.

I completely undestand, I really like the Kools as well. The battery charging thing is not a big deal to me so far, but I am in IT and always have a usb port handy for charging. I do go through three batteries a day though. Thanks for the tip on the eliquid I will check that out. I have been using 18mg for my all day and 24 mg in the evening. I am curious as too what the cinnamon has to do with menthol. Is it mixed in or straight cinnamon flavor?
The pace is definitely different for everyone, guess I realized that I had fallen out of love with smoking and vaping gave me the nic my body craved and I could experiment with new flavors etc. I was a menthol smoker, and after trying every menthol tobacco juice I could get, also tried the Halo's, I stumbled upon citrus menthol flavors and that is pretty much all I vape now. Still gives me the coolness and the citrus gives me a flavor to enjoy. Lemon Ice by Mister E-Liquid is my go to and I've managed to get down to 6mg nic, except when I have a few beers when I sometimes need to break out the 12
Stick at it, I too got the dry throat at first, but drinking plenty and experimenting with PG/VG will help you find your sweet spot. Rather than buying loads of juice with different PG/VG levels I got a bottle of 100% of each in a flavor that I liked and mixed a few separate batches to get a couple of different blends and found where I needed to be. There is a learning curve for sure but the right juice and set up, when you find it, makes the world of difference.... can't vape my 'starter' stuff at all now

Good stuff LFC, I will look into the mixing. I am counting nine different bottles here all various strengths, flavors, and ratios. I have been mixing some of them directly into my cartomizers, with varied results. The lemon/menthol sounds good as lemon is a good flavor for me, though it might taste too much like desert. That would make me crave an analog. I tried a chocolate mint liquid once and it tasted to much like a real chocolate mint type desert. I had a smoke after vaping it. I trashed that sample bottle. I have been heavy on drinking water, I always have water with me now.
Congrats on your success so far! You are wise to join up with ECF right off the bat. I didn't get on board here until about a month ago and I would have benefited greatly early on in my vaping career. Good luck finding that perfect juice and getting rid of the smokes!
It was there Natural Cinnamon flavor.
Funny thing is, I never cared for cinnamon gum, but for some reason, if I'm craving an analog, I grab the cinnamon and no more craving.
