I'm about to loose it - I WANT A F'ING CIGARETTE!!!!

[Mookie]

The Provari mini is now on utube as of today. Search Provari mini.
I've a v1 Provari and love it.

Switching subjects. Why did you stop 36 juice was it too strong ??

You should also look at the GG stealth which is smaller and cheaper ( but less capable ) than the PM.

Ya know I don't really know why I went to 24mg. I think that was the highest at some places I ordered from and stuck with it. I was also hoping to eventually taper down but that's not looking so good just yet - LOL!

Thanks for the input. I will look into the GG and the PM.

Am sure this has (likely) been said but... personally, I think there are too many choices of flavors out there (not that I mind) but if you think about it - for tobacco (cigarettes), there are actually only a couple/few.

FWIW - trying to find something that replicates the so-called taste of a cigarette is pointless (IMO) because they actually taste awful.

For me - I've long since given up on any tobacco flavors (8+ months now) and have gone with two sweetish flavors (a waffle and a vanilla) as my all day vapes.

Some days I tolerate them - other days I enjoy them - every day, they are better than any cigarette. Added bonus - am not looking at trying tons of new flavors all the time. (YMMV)

I just have to say every time I go to look at 'My Posts' lately this is what I see in big bold letters.......

I'm about to loose it - I WANT A F'ING

ROFLMAO!!!

Oh no doesn't it show the "cigarette" part in the heading? Please don't tell me it shows as "I'm loose and need a f'ing"?!?!?!?
That would just be too funny and surprising I haven't gotten any offers - heheheheh.

I did try to change "loose" to "lose" but it won't change.

Glad you're enjoying my melt down - LOL!!! I was having a pretty bad night and the booze wasn't helping either!!! Drinking, coffee, and cigs were my biggest guilty pleasures. I can do the coffee with vaping but drinking is still really tough. And well....drinking and spelling obviously don't go well together either!

I won't be much (any) help with the TUI (Typing under the influence) but Copper Creek's House in 24Mg is what "does it for me" when drinking (dont' ask me why I would have never thought it) I vape tobacco primarily when drinking and grabbed the mod (out of "habit" I suppose) which had a tank of House Blend and WOW was it good and OH SO satisfying (for me at least) a pleasant surprise as you might imagine .

EDIT TO ADD

Just happened to think of a couple other much less expensive you should try (especially when drinking) Blue Mist's Robacco and Vanilla tobacco (let them age for 2 weeks or so first though)

Well I don't know about where you live but here TUI is punishable by stoning to death. It is believed you could use poor grammar, misspell, invite strangers from a chat room out, even type things you don't really mean!

What mod(s) have you tried or use?

 

[Jim Bob]

I have a Maximum Vapor 5v box mod 5 Volt Box Mod , and a Madavpes VV box mod

WOW. You are the FIRST person I have read that said they were not a menthol smoker, but the menthol vape did it for them (other than myself, that is lol). I honestly believe there is something to it. Like you, I needed soemthing I guess that felt harder, or harsher, to mimic the feel of a drag off an analog. Difference though with me, I have have not vaped anything else. It feels every bit as satisfying to me as smoking.

Oh, I couldn't stand menthol, lol.(funny to, cause I started on Newports at 18, lol) But about once a week when we first started vaping...I would become panic stricken, mean...cussed at everything(and everybody, lol). This went on for like I said about 5 months. It had nothing to do with nic. It all was in my head and had to do with that nasty, peppery, ashy taste I wanted. I wanted harsh, harsh, harsh. That is the only way I can explain it. I never gave up, never stuck a cigarette in my mouth. I kept reading the boards, trying vendors. I tried Ice Menthol on a whim, and it all ended. Eventually all of it just went away.

Me and my husband was just talking the other day. We remember coming out of a store and was not even to the car and we had a cigarette burning already. I would walk around Walmart thinking about getting groceries and get out, I need a cigarette. Xmas shopping. Had to come out of the mall 3 times to smoke. Now, we don't even think about it. E cigs after awhile give you a different view. We come out, put stuff in car. Get in, go down the road...and we might grab our e cig. It just isn't a major priority anymore.

Trust me you WILL get over this.

I just started vaping in November, but was feeling exactly the same for awhile. For me, getting a kgo (easy, but powerful and versatile) and going diy was the answer. never liked vendors juices, now I have tons of flavors, can mix up any strength/flavor I want when the mood strikes me. I also have an etract I made from ryo tobacco that helps when 'no other flavor will do'.
Every day I have at least 3 flavors sitting right in front of me, and rotate them out completely every week or so. I went from having nothing I liked, to having so many I ave a hard time choosing between them!

You can do it...it's just a matter of finding what works for you.

I, too, think I needed that ashy, harsher taste when I vaped, and yea, nothing to do with nic. All in my head trying to simulate the smoking experience.

As for getting over it, doubt I will. Been close to two years vaping menthol almost exclusively. BUT i am the same way as you and your husband in that I don't think about vaping the way I did smoking. It's kind of an 'out of sight, out of mind' thing for me. When I am relaxed, sitting at my pc desk, I vape. I almost never vape anywhere else anymore as I don't have those 'analog nic' urges that were so strong.

Like RippleInWater, I am not lauging "at" you, nor enjoying your meltdown, but rather laughing WITH you because this post just cracked me up!!!! LOL

No worries - I never took it in a bad way. I think it's hysterical how it can be misread. Who couldn't use a good laugh?!?!?

I literally did "laugh out loud" when I read your reply to Ripple. LMAO

OMG that is so true! I thought it was only me. LOL

If you really want that feeling of taking a nice long drag off an analog than do yourself a favor and order this juice right now! I was a skeptic until I tried it myself,truly satisfies like the real deal

I would also add Halo juices in with the ecopure. If you need a desert type that satisfies like these NLV bounty hunter at 24mg does a good job but not quite as well.

I was a 2+ PAD Marlboro medium I found TH and lung hit the most important factor in satisfaction. The WTA juice didn't even satisfy me if they didn't have enough TH/lung hit. Ego type devices are just too weak my provari was the best decision I made if I didn't get it I am sure I would be back to smoking.

 

[krnxguhj33]

I vape WTA pretty much exclusively (only way I'll get off those dirty analogs) and found that the WTA liquids provided more TH and nic-hit than WTA-less liquids. @_@;;

I am a strictly Ego-C vapor & I thought this device was one of the best. Does the Provari really work that much better?

It largely depends on how/why you were smoking. The harshness is a major component to most people. I failed my first time trying to start on e-cigs (and I did my research) I went LR and it made a big improvement to my ability to switch but I still need that harsh feeling or I start to crave a cigarette.

Exactly

My first attempt at vaping was when 901's were the hot thing and they did absolutely nothing for me. Fast forward I tried again with an ego t and while much better it still didn't hit hard enough. It was enough for me to drop down to half a pack a day but I couldn't kick them totally. As soon as I got my provari and turned the power up I was done with analogs.

 

[Mookie]

Thought I'd give y'all an update. I am hoping to get a good f'ing and feel much more satisfied soon - I ordered an IPro and it's in the mail - LOL!!!!!!

I really wanted the mini Provari but I liked how easy the IPro is to use plus it is half the price, also highly recommended, and available. It's my first vv so should be a big improvement. I also ordered lots of toys to go with it: IKV fusions and atty's, m1a1 tank, M&P tank with pre-punched carto, and some empty carts and attys. I know I should stop but someday I would like a reo and probably a provari. Actually I would prefer to quit but I'm now addicted to this new hobby.

I've also finally found a few juices I really like; CC House Blend and TVG (The Vapor Girl) vanilla tobacco, dirty hortchata, autumn berry and watermelon. I also have some BWB and Mrs. T's steeping. I also wonder if part of my not liking many juices is that I've mainly used cartos and possibly it's the taste of the filler that I don't care for. Although I have tried a couple of clearos and didn't find that much better.

I have spent way too much money and time but know that it will take lots experimenting to find my preferences and eventually know what I'm doing! The learning curve is huge and frustrating but worth every penny to stay of analogs! And now I have to learn how to use all the new stuff I've ordered.

I would be lost and back on cigs if it wasn't for all of you. ECF is such a wonderful support group and wealth of knowledge. It's like a big family and a counselor 24/7 encouraging and helping whenever and with whatever you need.

Great big hugs & kisses to all of you!
