I first saw electronic cigarettes for sale at a local truck stop and wanted to try them, but was hesitant because of the high price.They were those crappy njoys.A couple of months later i got sick with bronchitis and decided to try it out.I was able to cut down my analog intake down for a couple of days but wasn't getting enough vapor production and i went back to analogs.After almost another year of smoking analogs i decided to give ecigs another try.I spent many hours online in search of the ecig that would give me the vapor i was looking for and found the Silver Bullet.

kept hearing the "free trial" radio ads that every couple weeks seemed to change names. Interesting idea but just like any TV infomercial I figured "too good to be true". Turns out the free trials are TGTBT but there are some good venders and good products out there. Glad I did my research first. Got 510 kits for me and my wife, moved on to EGO after a couple weeks. Haven't looked back. can't wait to get an extra battery for the EGO and try out the LR cartomizers.

I ran across an ad while surfing and decided to try e-cigs. I found a kit at a local smoke shop and altho it wasn't that great, I did see that it could work for me if I could find a better model. Then I found ECF, did a little research, and went with a Joye 510. That was over four months ago. Ego should be here sometime this week. No going back for me!! lol

The very first time I saw or heard of an e-cig was when one of my college teachers was using one in class. He let me try it and I was quite impressed. I then did some searching online and found a bunch of videos on Youtube by a guy named Sean. He has a company called Zigcigs and I got my first 510 kit there. I used that with pretty good success and cut down from 1.5 packs to just 3-5 analogs a day. At first I was only looking to cut down and not quit completely, mainly I just wanted to stop smoking indoors around my wife at home. After about a month of doing that I decided that maybe I could quit analogs completely. It took me about another 3 weeks to quit completely and finding better liquid at a slightly higher nic but now I have been analog free since Sept 5th. In October I also upgraded to an eGo. I still use the 510 I keep different flavors in each of them but the eGo gets the most use by far.

My first post here, so please bear with me. I drive a truck locally in the Chicago area, and happened upon another driver who had a tw 510. I asked him how it worked for him, and he said he had not had a analog cigarette since he started vaping 6 months ago.

I went to tw website, and ordered a 510 titan starter kit, and have been using it for 1 week now. I ordered the refillable carts, and 5 bottles of 30 ml menthol flavored juice. I am a 35 year heavy smoker (2-3 packs a day) and have never had long-term success quitting. I have not bought a pack of cigs since I started vaping, and and in the last 8 days have smoked a total of about 9 cigs. The last one actually tasted nasty, and will be the last analog I smoke. If anyone has any tips on what to expect, I would greatly apperciate it...

there's really no way to sugar coat this, you'll probably feel like poop the next couple days, almost as if you're getting the flu. This is completely normal because it's your body cleaning out something like 4,000 various chemicals and poisons. After 3 or 4 days you should notice your sense of smell and taste starting to return and you might start coughing stuff up. Again it's just your body cleaning out. The best advice I could give is stay hydrated, keep drinking water because it'll help flush your body.

here's a link that'll help-

I first heard about them when Good Morning America was talking about a possible ban on them over 2 years ago. A couple of weeks later, I found some at the local smoke shop. Tried it, and it was starting to work when I accidently washed the batteries in the washer (they didn't look that good afterwards). I gave up until recently when I found ECF and started researching. Bought the 510s and they were ok, but wasn't helping me get off the analogs. When the pt I had ordered with my kit seemed to die, I ordered an Ego. I'm still trying to find the sweet spot to kick analogs to the curb, but I plan on to keep trying.
