Well - I started out 3 weeks ago with an ePuffer Colibri - because of course I wanted it to be just like a cigarette

So after reading on here for the past week I just placed an order today for 2 eGo Twists, some cartomizers, clearomizers and 4 10ml bottles of different flavors of
juice - so I have no idea if I am actually going to like these - but as I understand it is a process
My best friend has COPD and I am hoping to convert her to - but she still thinks she can do with lozenges and gum and has been trying on and off for 2 years....... My husband has never smoked - so at least I don't have him tempting me.
What gear/
juice are you using?
Congrats!!! Yes, finding juices you like is a process, but ask lots of questions, read and watch
reviews (YouTube is *swimming* in them) and check in here plenty.
As for your friend. I recently spoke with a man who started for the same reason - COPD, and he is now symptom free!
I started with an eGo-W kit (the attys with covers and pencaps - similar to firebird etc) I've now added more batteries, a Twist (love it!), tried Stardusts (convenient, but not my favorite), received a Lambo (mod) from a very generous veteran vaper in my area (love it!)... and won an iTaste VV kit from a CVCN broadcast, courtesy of Vapour Solutions (love it too!). Got into dripping lately as well, and there will be no going back. I still like my tank/cartridge styles for portability, for a luxurious relaxing home vape.... it's dripping all the way!
Glad you're excited about it, and be sure to let us know how the juices turn out.
Above all, don't get discouraged. There's tons of support, encouragement and advice available to you here and no one will fault you for having an analog should you find yourself there.... we all have had those moments! Like they keep telling me, it's not about the cigs you still might have, it's about the ones you avoided!
