Yeah I know that feeling! So nice to be able to have a vape inside! Although I have noticed a lot of places here in the UK are banning them in bars and so on! No idea why!

I quit going on 4 years ago this December, by using dip (smokeless tobacco). I got heavily addicted to dip, and dipped pretty much all day along except when I ate. I was pack and a half a day smoker for nearly 20 years. 6 months ago my ex girlfriend suggested I try a e-cig, and I said what the hell I do miss blowing smoke, maybe they work.
So I went to the gas station and tried some disposables and ended up buying a Logic cigalike kit. I pretty much quit dipping within 2 days of getting my logic. I wasn't completely satisfied with the cigalike so I started googling and found ECF and settled on buying a provari and a carto tank. That definitely did the trick, and I have not looked back.
I think I'm one of the only people here who quit dipping with ecigs.

After 37 years of smoking 2 PAD, I found e-cigs 2 1/2 years ago and suddenly had a choice. I know longer felt I had to have a cigarette. Just like that, I was finally free!!!!!
Smoked tobacco alittle over 52 years. 2.5 PAD when I started vaping. Found out about vaping and this site around 3 years ago. Took me 6 months of doing "Double Duty" before I was solo vaping. DIY'ed my own eliquid. Got concerned I was vaping too much Cinnamon. Left it out of the next batch. 24 hours later I discovered I'd Accidently left the nicotine out of that batch also. Feb 6th was my last vape. Went into hospitals for 22 days. (Not vape related). Didn't take a ProVari with me. Now I don't have an urge to do either. Don't mind being around those vaping. . .can't say the same about smokers. Good luck with your quit(s).

On my latest attempt it was to start Vaping and, bingo!, 3 days later I'd quit! Simple as that!! 
Thats really good! (not the hospital part obviously!)
I just like vaping without nicotine now!

I ordered a Provari Mini. I woke up on a Saturday and started smoking cigarettes. The Provari showed up at about 2:30PM. I have not smoked a cigarette since.
Have tried patches, gum no luck. Acupuncture worked great for my dad but not me. Welbutrin made me sick as a dog even though I wasn't cheating. Chantix I have a med conflict with.
I don't think I really wanted to quit. Probabaly why I wouldn't go under for hypno. Fast foward and after 37 years of smoking, I was tired of the coughing, bronchitis, feeling like crap, the stench, the cost and the list goes on...
So I decided that some less was better than 1 1/2pad so I decided to give vaping a shot. I spent almost my weeks smoking allowance on a cig a like kit and some 24 mg juice. Told myself if I didn't see progress in a week then I could say I'd tried everything. Haven't had a hit off an analog since. At 2 weeks I rewarded myself with an Evod kit. 4 month reward will be an MVP2.

Same here.
Started vaping and made the switch immediately, completely and effortlessly.
I will be a 100% vaper for 2 years next Monday, 4 November.
Edit:
And I was not even looking to quit smoking. Just to cut down a little, because heavy smoking in the evening was not doing me good.
I never even considered quitting smoking, not in all my 35 years as a heavy smoker. Not once. Not ever. - The switch to e-cigs just happened. And it has done me a world of good.

Tried just about everything with no lasting results. A couple of guys in the plant turned me on to vaping, so I started lurking in the forums here to see what it was all about. Ordered some hardware and juice a couple of weeks ago, and double dipped for about a week. By then I couldn't stand the taste of an analog anymore. Went vape only and am loving it! Problem now is the techie in me has the itch to tinker.......
Slowly transitioned to ecigs. I smoked when at work, vaped when at home. At first, I was not comfortable vaping outside of my home. One day I decided to bring my ecig at work, asked my co-workers if I could vape inside. They said yes and the rest is history!
I tried the gum, had bad reaction to it and went back to smoking. I quit once using welbuterin (sp?) and the nicotine patches for 6 months, got mad at my husband went for a walk, instead of turning right I went left and ended up buying cigarettes so that ended that. Decade and a half later I tried vaping and haven't looked back....no longer married, so no getting angry at a husband, but even that couldn't cause me enough stress to go back to cigarettes with vaping at hand. This has really been a blessing to quitting the cigs.
Bought a PV, Used it instead of analogs...and that's LITERALLY "it". The PV fulfills my "habit", no need for the smokes. Been over 5 weeks w/o one...and I still don't "need" a cig.
Based on my 24 year habit, I'll argue that ANYONE can/could quit with vape, PERIOD!

Im 18 and was smoking between half to one and a half packs a day for two years. The first thing i did every morning after waking up before eating or taking a shower and getting ready was smoke a cigarette to get my day started and quickly gained a pretty strong dependence on nicotine. Tired of smelling like cigarettes all the time, spending $10 a pack, constant complaints about my habit from friends and family, and always needing to stop what i was doing to go out and smoke i decided to attempt kicking the habit and began using nicotine gum. For about a week i used the gum to cut down on the amount i smoked daily and hopfully ween myself off completely but the gum took time to chew and didnt give me the instant nicotine i was use to with smoking. I had always for some reason been very anti ecig and always just stuck with the classic combustible cigarette never even trying a drag off any of my friends egos, but after a trip to the dentist for a cavity with a fully numbed face and warnings not to chew for the risk of biting my tounge off i relized gum was not an option at that time and stoped at the gas station to buy my first electronic cigarette, the BLU disposable. I liked the instant intake of nicotine and the familiar "smoking" sensation i was use to and quickly upgraded to BLUs rechargeable pack. At this point i have worked my way down to 6mg nicotine e liquid from the 24mg Blu disposable and have ventured into using many different vaping devices as vaporizing has become more of a hobby than an addiction for me. Currently vaping on my itaste134 and loving it more than ever.
My story is much like many others - 40 years of smoking, tried everything, could not stay quit. With vaping, I have not had a stinky in 3 weeks & am not suffering. I am getting very frustrated with the equipment & juices I have - this is a learning curve! - but I have better materials on order. The tough part is all the choices without enough real information to make good decisions. The great part is that my frustration does NOT make me want to go back to smoking - it just makes me want to vape better! (Please, no one tell me get a provari!)
Well done rubyruby!
I'm nearly 3 weeks quit and pretty much the same with the frustration! I wouldn't go back though! I won't tell you to get a provari!
