Hey guys, I'm new to vaping and just wanted to introduce myself and talk about my experience up until now.
A few months ago I saw one of the commercials for the American Bluetip cigarettes which got me thinking about trying out ecigs. I'd been off cigarettes for a couple of years, but due to some very stressful events I went back to it for almost a year.
Well, being the skeptic I am, I don't really trust stuff advertised on sketchy looking commercials, not to mention their website layout and the fact that there wasn't much info unless you call them. I went to google to do some research and WOW, just about every "review" website is someone that you can tell is trying to sell stuff for that specific company, or someone that obviously has no clue what they're talking about. FINALLY after hours of searching I came upon this website and started doing some actual research (luckily, found out about how American Bluetip, Blu cigs, etc., aren't that great).
So, after several hours of research, I decided to order an Inferno from Volcano on November 5th. I was very happy with the vaporizer, but the big mistake I made was only ordering vanilla and coffee flavor, both of which gave me the urge to have an analog. Oops.
So due to budget issues I went a little while longer smoking analogs and lightly vaping. Finally about 2 1/2 weeks ago I ordered some Johnson Creek juices, Menthol Carts from Volcano (those actually came with the magma I decided to also order), and sample packs from Awesome Vapor. Since I got my new juices in I have had absolutely NO urge to smoke. I do like the dessert flavors, but they definitely couldn't be my only juices since they still give me the urge for something cigarette flavored (pretty good to mix in with the tobacco or menthol though
). Only down side, I decided the menthol flavor from Awesome Vapor is the BEST THING EVER, and I only had the little sample bottle, so I'm anxiously awaiting the arrival of the two larger bottles I ordered since the little bottle just ran out a few hrs ago.
I have no fear of going back to analogs while waiting, but the other flavors I have aren't nearly as tasty.
Anyway, that's my experience up until now. Long story short, if it wasn't for this forum I would probably still be smoking, or ended up with an ecig that didn't work for me (Almost thought about ordering the Blu, and after using the Magma and Inferno I don't think that would have made me happy). I'm hoping I can get my parents, who are heavy smokers, converted and possibly some other family members and friends.
