I am 54 and have been smoking for 40 years. Tried all those cigarette type ecigs in about 2010, didn't cut it, tried those starter packs ego things, didn't cut it. Got a variable mod and pro tank EUREKA! No cigarettes for 3 months, the mere thought of a cigarette makes me feel sick.

Can't say I've saved money as yet, all those noobie mistakes (the stater kits etc) cost a fortune.

And now i mix my own juice and rebuild coils, I can see that in the long run I will save money. Can't wait to start surfing again.

Me- 64
Smoke 40 yrs, last 4-5 yrs 2-3 PAD American Spirit Organic
Vaping 3 yrs last month, I smoked a few stinkies first month vaping, mostly lounging around pool with a drink

DH-78
Smoked 55 yrs, 2 PAD last 20 yrs
Started vaping 3 yrs ago but smoked a few stinkies, a month, for about a year, while vaping, and then suddenly stopped all stinkies (It's not how many you smoke; it's how many you don't smoke.)

Smoking is still allowed downstairs (upstairs, bedrooms has been no smoking/no dog zone for several years) in our house but we know few peeps who smoke and have fewer guest.

We have loads of air movements all around, 3 layer filters in central AC/Heat downstairs, and many ceiling fans always going. Over the years I "quit", painfully, many times using hypnosis several times, acupuncture, medications, gum, patches. Nothing was a permanent success. I even had two, many hours, major abdominal surgeries using minimal general anesthesia and hypnosis and up and about within a few hours of surgery. Hypnosis for smoking cessation, for me, was a dismal, failure.

I haven't even thought about having a stinky since Sept 2010. I used cigalike for a week, then a couple of months dripping on atty on eGo, then right to REOs.
