just past my 6 month mark....where are you at?

[thecatanddog]

I just wanted to share my excitement about being free from analogs for 6 months now. I bought a mall kiosk kit that got me started (DOH!) and am now using 2 eGo twists (with carto tanks), an Apollo E2 twist and have a Vamo on the way, with a Provari in my sites.

I have been free of cigarettes (atleast buying packs, but have tried a few since then but hated them) since 6/27/2012. Really feeling good and know I am done, all i want to do is vape now, i can't even stand the smell or thought of cigarettes.

How are you all doing? How long have you been analog free?

I've been vaping for close to three months now. My starter kit was a couple of eGo batteries and some crappy tobacco cartridges.

I started a couple of days before I found ECF. My first month after ECF was a lot of trial and error, since it opened up a lot of different options...but it was worth it. I quickly moved on to an eGo C Twist and found the benefits of variable voltage. Soon after that I moved on to a ProVari and haven't looked back.

Finding what to put on top of the ProVari was a whole lot more difficult, but I've been with the same 'system' for about a month now and I'm very happy with it. I'm still trying different juices, but I'm mostly a DIYer now.

Now I would not say that I am cigarette free. Some days I don't smoke any cigs at all and other days I max out at two. In any case, I'm a lot better off than where I was and I'm quite happy about it.

I agree finding the right battery wasn't as hard as finding the right attachment. So far i have found:
Vivi Nova tanks=HORRIBLE (for me)
J tanks, IBT tanks, Texas Tuff tanks=AMAZING with Boge SR carto

I don't think 2 cigs is as bad as you were before. Any less is better man, i found the more i vape, the less and less i liked analogs.

I'm at 1 year, 4 months. Feels surreal that I use to smoke now.


I actually just got the VAMO 2 today. It's awesome. I'm not sure how I feel about the grey 18350 batteries that come with it if you get the kit. The device has exceeded my expectations. Very heavy, feels well built. I love it. I got black chrome. Using this, I'm just not seeing a point to buy a Provari as long as the VAMO holds up well.

Grats, guys : ) I'm at 1 year and 9 months. My SO made an interesting comment to me just yesterday. I had a cig-a-like in my mouth just for kicks to see what he would say. He did a double take before realizing it was electronic and told me it was very strange to see me with a "cigarette". I picked up my big LT and puffed on that and said "How does this look?" He said " Natural." Kinda blew my mind.

For those of you that have been vaping for a while what level of nic were you at when you started and where are you now?

 

[yzer]

Congratulations! Six months is a major achievement.

I'm getting into the ninth month since my last cigarette. I'm still using the same APV I started with: E-Power 14650 and have no plans to change.

I started with a pre-flavored tobacco at 24 mg. I'm DIY now at 20 mg but vaping less now: about 2 ml per day.

Wow!!!!!!! I'm only on 7.5 weeks! I'm amazed by how well everyone is doing! Congratulations!!!!x

Check my banner. I'm happy for you! I started at 18mg and am still there. hope you never go back to tobacco.

Congrats on your endeavour to ecigs! We both have similar hardware! In my opinion after getting the vamo v2 the only other PV I would get is a Provari! Also mastering the art of the Genesis Atomizer! All will come in due time, in the meanwhile I hope you have a prosperous year of knowledge and massive clouds of vape!

For those of you that have been vaping for a while what level of nic were you at when you started and where are you now?

24-36 and still on 24-36, though my DIY is about 33mg. There are definitely plenty of people though who have tapered down to less than 10mg or use no nic at all.

 

[Grimwald]

Wait...let me post this, read my banner, and edit.

4 months 22 days!

 

[Condorman]

Six weeks or thereabouts, high nic and still trying to find " the juice" started with carts now on cleariosmiers and debating on the next move, actually took me dad out of hospital for a smoke lit his tab for him and nearly howked, jeez, was the real stuff that bad?

 

[Tiffani]

I'm at ten days without an analog. I'm starting to dislike the smell of them when my coworkers come inside from smoking. Right now I'm on 24 mg, but I intend to step it down eventually.

 

[cstalker]

1 week . Hopefully this moodiness goes away soon.

Congrats thecatanddog for making it past the 6 months point

My banner tells my story I started at 20 mg nic and now use between 0 and 6 mg depending upon what I feel like using. I lost my addiction to nicotine about 4 months after I started vaping so its by pure choice that I do still occasionally decide to use some nic. I have a vape store near me that has a vape gathering once a month that I attend and my vaping friends there laugh at me when I carefully sample the vendors 18 mg juices because my body really can't tolerate much 18 mg juice any longer.

 

[davros]

30 days today. I currently use 18mg but plan to step down eventually

 

[carynjahn]

7 months for me. I just went to 12mg from 18mg!
for your 6 months!!

 

[mmikee]

I am just now into my 6th month. Congrats !
