Hello all. I'm now officially 8+ days analog free. I have to say, that I haven't missed smoking like I thought I might. I've never had much success quitting every other way. I originially began vaping on Oct 5th, but the juice I received with my kit I couldn't stand and didn't last a day without have an analog. I received new juice on Oct 22nd and haven't looked back.

Welcome WhoKnows,

It appears that many of us have the same story, once we find a suitable flavor and nic level, we don't look back. Although "ALL" of the ecig sites claim that these vaporizers are not ment to help people stop smoking, it appears that they actually do exactly that for many of us. I tend to believe that the big tobacco companies are the ones who are anti-ecig because this trend will really cut into their sales/profits. I can't believe that some countries have banned e-cigs (I think I read that somewhere but could be wrong).

Best Wishes
White Rabbit

That seems like common sense, but it turns out that Big Pharma is the head of this particular monster.

They are the ones that stand to lose billions from the merry-go-round of quit-smoking products that don't work.
And billions and billions more from expensive drugs to keep sick smokers alive.

The people that are in the trenches fighting every day for our right to vape know exactly who opposes us.
We have people on this forum who have been involved for years, and know all the players in this game.

Big tobacco has actually been standing to the side watching and waiting for the dust to settle.
And now that they see where things are heading, they are starting to jump into the game.

The question now is, will they be on our side, or will they hurt us more than they can help us.

Very well said. I'm on day 36 without a cig and if it wasn't for the massive amount of juice I have collected in the past few months I never would have made it. Now when I start feeling a little down and want a cig I treat myself to a new order of juice. Actually made a spreadsheet of juices and vendors I wish to try. Some people look for that all day vape but I am enjoying trying different things.
 
Thanks everyone. Now I just need to decipher all the posts about different equipment. It really is VERY confusing. I've been trying to figure it out for a week. Anyone with a Kgo that can tell me the easiest set up, I'd apprecaite it. just want to keep it simple right now. I'm using the cartridges sent with the kit I purchased. I'd like something that i don't have to fill up quite so often. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I vape with a Kgo (among other PVs) and best delivery system is the Mini Vivi Nova 1.8 ohms LONG WICK.
The Vivi Nova is a plastic or metal tank with a wick and element. Contains NO stuffing. The rebuildable clearos come with heads (coil+ wick) that can be cheaply and easily replaced. When the head burns out simply unscrew the old head out and screw in new head- takes 10 secs. My Vivi Nova heads are lasting about 4 weeks BUT I wash the heads every few days. I've found the Vivi Nova to give the best draw. Vivi Nova Tank with 3 heads costs about $10. Extra heads are about $3.00.

Just know that it only gets easier.
This is an important point, because it does get easier.

It continues to get easier as time goes by.
It continues to get easier as you find the right equipment for your needs.
It continues to get easier as you find the strengths and flavors that make you happy.

Some get off the smokes right away.
In fact lots of folks do.

But some do have struggles, for whatever reason.
But no matter who you are, and what your needs, it always gets easier.

And that is where you can hang your hat of hope.
:)
