What is the point of the pre-rinse?

Kill germs, help to clean where a brush can't reach, distribute moisture everywhere, etc.

The usual pointers handed out around here. I had a few painful mouth sores. I'd save you from having them too. And the pre-rinse certainly won't hurt.

Congrats on the new Lifestyle choice you have made! I quit after 30 years...my wife also....my mom was a 50 year smoker and did it! You Can Do It!
The biggest part for me was just finding a new routine and breaking the ritual habit! Cigs put away and vaporizer sitting where my smokes would be! Ashtrays cleaned and put away or a nice glass one cleaned with your PV sitting in it! Zippo put away so as to not light the end of my PV LOL! Even 2 months later I still glance around occasionally looking for the pack before chuckling to myself!
We are all pulling for you! Keep us posted!

You do it your way! Period. If you need a cig during the day, go for it. There are no rules to play by. Go at your own pace here. But you will find that with the right kit, you will need less and less analogs till your completely off of them. You may need a few days, or a few months. The main thing here is you have taken the right steps for a healthier you. I am a year into this myself and plan on many more years of vaping healthier. Btw...it's fun when you DIY your own juices. Just git er done! lol

Congratulations Newme,
sounds like you already did a lot of research before taking the plunge so you kind of already knew what to expect. Wish I had done the same, then I could have spent some of the $$ I spent on e cigs before I got my MaxX Fusion on different juice flavors. I personally have found that with the Bloog it has been quite simple to switch, but different people need different things, you keep going at your own pace. Good luck and again congrarulations on starting the process.

What is the point of the pre-rinse?

vaping dries out your mouth even more than you can tell or feel -- there has even been some concern regarding tooth decay due to a lack of saliva in your mouth. The saliva rinses out your mouth all day, so you can imagine... However: the blood flow will return to your gums now! Don't be too concerned if your gums start bleeding when you brush your teeth for the next month or so - it's just your gums healing from being deprived of oxygen for the last (however many years you smoked). It'll go away on it's own, but the moisture needs to be kept up. Drink water! :)

Awesome. You should be very proud of yourself. Now that you have quit, don't get discouraged if you slip and have an analog. Almost all of my friends smoke and when we go out, I'm still tempted to bum a smoke off of one of them. And I have a couple of times. It's OK. Now, when I see them, I vape away inside while their out in the cold (it was -20F here a few days ago) and I laugh and laugh. Soon enough I'm going to get all of them turned on to this whole vaping thing...

Hi PapaBloog, Things are going good. Still working about what flavors I like. So far, pretty much just menthol. Though I did find a menthol I like-FSUSA Menthol Ultra. I also bought some stuff from V4L. I got a diamond battery, which I love, and a pack of coolcarts, which I really don't care for. From what I've read and experienced, I think the Bloog cartos are the best, and even though there are some problems with them right now, I think I'll stick with them. As far as the batteries go, I like them both equally but for slightly different reasons. So I'll stick with both brands for that. I did order some BWB juices. Unfortunately, I'm not crazy about any of the flavors I got.

And as you may have read, I'm smoke free as of midday Thursday.

Thank you so much for all your help!

That is SO awesome! Glad to hear you're successfully off the analogs! Take your time with the flavors - and, give the BwB a chance to steep a bit. Your sense of taste is going to be a bit whacky for about 2 months - and, I'm certain you'll find that your preferred choice of juice today will not be the preferred choice 2 months from now.

Give the juice some time to steep. I've had juice that I hated at first and got better with age. If you come back to the BWB flavors in a week you may love them.

CONGRATULATIONS NEWME!!!

It's amazing, isn't it? I never thought I could quit so easily, but here I am tobacco free! I hope you are enjoying some of the benefits from quitting, along with the sometimes strange adjustments.

I hope you find exactly what works for you with the juices et. al and continue to vape.

Again Congrats!
