The Electronic Cigarette is an amazing device that has saved me tons of money and completely replaced my smoking habit. I like it because it satisfies both my physical and psychological addiction and is an unprecedented replacement. Nicotine patches and gum may replace the physical addiction but they do not address the more powerful psychological addiction. The e-cig does not contain tobacco and its thousands of poisonous chemicals. While nicotine can cause heart disease, getting it through an e-cig will not cause COPD or Lung Cancer. If you are serious about making the switch, follow these tips and you’ll be well upon your way to healthier lungs, no tobacco odors, and saving money. Failure to do so may result in wasting money, using a poorly designed e-cig and brushing them off as unreliable.
1.Research is key – Before you buy one make sure to research the products out there. Things to look for are e-cigs that have sturdy atomizers, long battery life, and are affordable to maintain. I have found the e-cigarette forum to be the most valueable resource for acquiring the necessary knowledge needed to get the e-cig that is right for me. Personally, I am very happy after buying the eGo. I would recommend it to anybody looking into vaping.
2.E-Cigs vary by manufacturer – Indeed they do. My first e-cig was from a gas station and ran about 60 bucks. For the most part it was a frustrating experience. Charging the batteries would take all day, and the 5 cartridges it came with didn’t last nearly as long as advertised! The atomizer would over-heat frequently, rendering it unusable. Sometimes it worked like a champ, but other times it would constantly over-heat.
3.Know your juice – The “juice” is the stuff you’re vaping, and there are many different flavors and doses of nicotine to choose from. You can get pre-filled cartridges for more than twice the cost or just buy some juice in a bottle and some cheap blanks. When a cartridge runs out simply refill it, and buy another bottle when you’re running low. I personally recommend the HIGH rated juice (18 MG) because I was smoking 1.5 packs a day. Companies I recommend are Johnsons Creek and Totally Wicked.
4.Form a routine with charging your batteries. This is very important! I usually bring my charger with me, my e-cig battery lasts 5-10 hours and charges in just 2 hours or less. I have two batteries so I alternate them in order to maintain access to my PV(Personal Vaporizer). I plan on buying two more batteries next month to add to the cycle and carry a spare in case one fails.
5.Keep at least 3 cartridges filled up. It’s very difficult to know how much is left in a cartridge, and it really sucks if you’re not prepared. I used to keep a bottle and just refill the same cartridge but this would be inconvenient to do at times making this a more frustrating process. I found it much more convenient to keep a few extras on me for a quick swap when needed. Once you figure out how many carts you go through a day, fill up that many at night and you're good to go the next day.
Following these tips have ensured that I am vaping at an affordable price, completely avoiding cigarettes, and not feeling frustration because I always have a battery charged, spare cartridges, and a sturdy e-cig that handles my daily routine. I work 2 jobs at 7 days a week and have successful at maintaining a vaping habit without frustrating interruptions.
