My E-Cig came in the mail yesterday. Picked it up after work and have been playing with it every since. Had a fun experience within the first hour that taught me to regulate myself. (got a bit loopy sucking it like a pacifier) I also managed to find out the hard way not to smoke it laying down with the tip straight up the juice tastes aweful *insert puke face here* but other than I've had no real isues. Also Haven't had a real cig since about 8pm last night .. 20 hours without a cig longest ive gone in years and I feel great about it. But I was wondering about the slight itch it causes in the back of my throat Is that normal? Also I was wondering if liquid without PG would maybe not cause that? Also does non-PG liquid taste different?

Hey Ryle!

That slight itch/tingle/etc... is the PG. PG is known to dry out the throat quite a bit, and if you aren't allergic to PG itself, you shouldn't notice the symptoms after you system adjusts to it. Shouldn't take more then just a couple days for your system to adjust. I recommend always keeping a bottle of water handy, and try not to vape at least 30 minutes before you decide to go to bed. Waking up in the middle of the night or in the morning with a soar throat from being so dry is not fun!

Brushing your teeth and gargling also help moisten the back of your throat as well!

My throat has gotten so used to it, I normally just take a couple swigs of water right before bedtime, and I'm good to go!

Enjoy, and 20 hours without a real cig right from the get go?!?!?! AMAZING! Keep it up!

Thanx, and yea 22 hours now.. but Ive blown through prolly 4 cartridges hahaha I have a hard time putting this thing down. So I've gone ahead and ordered some liquid to refill them before u burn through all of my carts I suppose If i dont adjust to the PG i can always switch to non PG when I use up the liquid. Its tolerable and ill just drink like a fish if i dont hahahaha.

I too have not had a real cig since i got my e cig. I started having a little prob with it i think the second or third day and almost gave up and had a real one. Then i came on here and basically figured out by reading alot that what i was going through was easy to fix and get through so i figure i went this far, why not keep going and did not have one. Get spares before you need them and always have carts or liquid around!!!

Yeah, I've been on the mini ciggy for about 3.5 weeks now and only had to resort to real cigarettes when my battery ran out. I've now got 4 batteries, always have a supply of carts and seriously thinking about getting a couple of atomisers and another charger. I'm a full convert. I also had a sore throat and a headache after the first day of use but this was definitely down to using it too much. I'm now on about 2 carts/day and loving it.

Hate to say it but I'm starting to hate the smell of cigarette smoke on other peoples breath. I refuse to turn into a rabid evangelical anti-smoker however as I don't intend to stop taking nicotine.
