1. I am not quite calling this a success story.2. But I think I will. (as soon as I am allowed to)


I have been lurking here for quite some time. On the 17th of June, I got a Tornado from Totally Wicked. I've since realized that may not have been the best route, although, I am very satisfied thus far.


I got it in the mail on the 24th of June, and have since only bought a single pack of analogs. I gave in... But, in two days I will have made my money back, and I just barely have gone through half my 10mL bottle of e-juice. I have charged my batteries 3 times since I got it. (Maybe I have miracle batteries, or maybe I just don't vape too much) I switch my atomizers daily. Most of the time I just drip more on my carts that I got with the package, once they start to fail on vapor production. That ends up being once or twice a day, 3-5 drops.
I switch out my carts every 3-4 days. And I have enjoyed vaping at work, where I am not allowed to have smoke breaks. (when nobody is looking)


I am so glad I have started vaping. I feel more healthy, I rarely have cravings, and when I do it's easy to deal with.


In the battle agaisn't smoking, this has been my best decision thus far.


I recommend this to everyone thinking about making the switch.


I'm glad to finally make my first post at this forum, and join the community. -- watch out.

Don't feel bad about the analogs you bought. It's not about how many of them you smoke, it's all about how many you haven't. There's no rule that you have to quit cold turkey. There will be a transition.

It sounds like you're having good luck with your equipment, and you have the right attitude of "if it ain't broke, don't fix it".

Welcome from a fellow newbie! I have been vaping exclusively for a week now. Already, the rattling in my throat that I experienced whenever I lay down to go to sleep is gone. My wheezing is almost completely gone as well. I find myself hardly ever having to clear my throat anymore. I am SO happy that I have found this new way of life!!! Good luck to you on your journey!

Yes, it's been great. The pack that I bought was nearly 2 weeks ago now. And I smoked them all in a day... I didn't want to have them around... I have a roommate who smokes analogs, wont convert :(, but occasionally I bum smokes, but never have more than one a day. So I'm not marking it a complete success. YET.

If you're like me and dropped from smoking a pack a day to 3-4 MAX a day, without paying for drugs (like zyban), I'd call it a great success. I've been vaping for just over a month now and had 2 analogs today. but, I didn't smoke 18 more, have stopped taking allergy meds and sinus meds completely and have also noticed I play more with the kids and get more done at work. Even if I DO have an analog now and then, just those and the fact I'm not giving the government like 70% of the price of a pack of smokes is good enough for me.

I've been analog free for three weeks, and I've noticed a huge difference in one area that was a great concern to me: heart palpatations. For the past year I've had heart palpatations 2-3 times a week, always when I would lay down to go to sleep. They literally felt like my heart was trying to jump out of my chest for 5-6 beats, then it would stop.

Since I quit analogs and started vaping, I haven't had a single palpatation (good god, I hope I didn't just jinx myself).
