After 25 years of smoking I finally quit almost 6 weeks ago now. For the past 15 I bet I was close to 2 packs a day. I dipped my toe into the waters of vapeing to check things out and then picked a date, dove in, and have not looked back. This forum has been very helpful. Thank you. I started out using an eGo but that didn't do the trick. Quickly got down with an istick and Aspire mini and was very happy. Shortly after that a 50 watt istick, another Aspire Mimi, 2 full size Natilus, a Kanger sub tank mini...and I have my eyes on a few things too.

I'm not sure there is any perfect set up. Trying different devices and juices seemed to work for me. What works for me may not work for you. The important thing is to talk to people, experiment, and stick with it. I am confident that I will not go back to cigarettes. The first week was the toughest. Getting out of certain routines was hard. Some thing replacing smoking with vapeing is not quitting. I am not one of those people. Went in for small day surgery today and was psyched to tell them I was no longer a smoker!

Sorry for the ramble...my message is this...if I can quit smoking you too can, but only if you want to. Have fun with this. You may get frustrated but stick with it! It may just save your life.

No ramble at all. Vaping is a real YMMV kinda thing. Personal stories from you might resonate with someone that is in a similar place. Mine might reach someone else. This forum is great because it makes the room for all of us to share what has worked for each of us. Congrats on your transition. I've found it to be an adventure.
