Joined a few years ago, just got back into Vaping

[gre0481]

Hello,

I got my first E-Cigarette in 2009. It was a Diablo Brand Millenium Kit, now known as Inferno or something like that. It was ok but wasn't enough for me to drop smoking. I used the batteries until they wouldn't take a charge anymore.

Now I'm in NC, and vaping stores have been popping up everywhere. We have at least 3 in Jacksonville NC that I know of.

My wife and I decided to go head first and see what they had to offer.

Currently have (3) batteries, and (4) clearomizers.

(2) bats came in a set 2x Inno Polymer Li‐ion Rechargeable Battery( 650mAh) which work just fine, 3.7v

(2) Clear 16 single core Clearomizers (Like as well)

(2) Kanger T3 clearomizers

My Battery lasted just under a day, and My wife's probably lasted a day and a half. We needed a backup battery.

I ended up getting a Smoktech VV 3.2 - 4.8. I like to start it at 3.7, and crank it up to 4.4 by noon. I use it primarily with another clearomizer I picked up with a cone, a vivi Nova v2. It's my favorite so far.

WE have four juices so far.

Juicy vapor -

Ecto Plasm

Brain Matter

Revolution Blend (Tobacco)

Pomegranite

We have them all in 24 MG as we smoke about a pack and a half a day.

So far it's helping. Picked them up on Friday, no smoking for me. I killed my bat saturday morning, and had 2 cigarettes. I haven't had one since I got my second battery. My wife is at (1) real cigarette a day after 3 days.

Hopefully I can stick with it this time, and not spend the $$ we were spending on cigarettes. (2-3) Cartons a week was killing me.

Brain Matter! I'm afraid to ask what flavor that is, ew. Pomegranate sounds good, though.

My partner and I were both at 10-12 "light" cigs per day, huffing them pretty deep. We tried 18 mg disposables (White Cloud Flings) and quickly moved to 24 to satisfy the nic urge. We were still sneaking a few cigs at 18 mg, but 24 fixed that. After a few weeks, we're both ready to go back to 18 mg. I'm enjoying flavors SO much (my head really is in a cloud) that I might get some favorite flavors in even lower nic levels for my Halo G6. Vaping our heads off makes it much easier to stay away from the corner store cig counter.

Welcome back! Yep some extra batteries will be needed, especially with 2 vaporers . Good luck in your refound journey, I'm recently back myself.

Welcome back! The equipment has really improved thru the years, sounds like it is working for you & your wife, keep up the good work! My first ecig was in 2009, a mini, cartos were just coming out back then so I know what was available then and what we have now is no comparison. Enjoy bnrk

Welcome back! Looks like you were already able to cut back on the analogs right away which is awesome. And not buying 2-3 cartons a week will definately help you save some money while hopefully improving your health. I hope it works better for you guys this time around.

Brain Matter is Pomegranate, Apple & Pear, I got a 22 ml bottle for $12 at a local shop in Jacksonville NC, going to try and find some better deals, or even consider ordering from a local maker back home in Mich. Found them from Great Lake Vapors website. Much better than the crap I originally bought when I tried it last time. I notice myself switching between the Revolution tobacco flavor and the lemon lime ectoplasm. Definitely prefer the bigger bat and vivinova 2 to the clear16 and smaller bat.

gre0481, The place in MI you are talking about is it Ahlusion? If so, they opened a shop in Jacksonville NC as well last month.
