Welcome Brendalee! Hopefully you can make a Vapemeet in Worcester sometime... great peeps and good times... but if not, glad you are here doing what you can do to become a healthier version of yourself!
Poking my head in! I'm on the North Shore (MA).
This is my 3rd or 4th time on the vape; I had 2 analogs on New Years Day & that was it...until *all but ONE* of my batteries died exactly a month later. Eeek! Well, considering they were all about 2 years old & had a good amount of hardcore vaping on them previously, I don't think that's too bad! I just ordered a 1000mAh ego passthrough starter kit to kick things back off (& also ordered my very favoritest vape, Belgian Breakfast - makes peoples cars smell like maple syrup!). I think it's an ego-c? I don't really care, since most of my parts are pretty dead anyway.
I started with some crappy e-Health e-cig I got at a gas station against my better judgment (seriously, who makes a 'starter kit' for mini-styles with ONE battery?!). I then got:
M401
510
-some 510 passthrus, since I rarely leave the house-
eGo (I think whatever I had would now be considered an A model?)
When I decided I was tired of smoking again, I busted out my 2 eGo batts & accessories, and my 510 passthru. The passthru & 1 batt died within 5 hours of each other.The last eGo batt is dying & my attys aren't so great either. BUT...considering these are the atty's I got with the starter kit, I don't think that's too bad!
Sadly, I'm back on the analogs, but I've been pretty good at sticking strictly to half a pack a day (sometimes less!) & trying to vape with my meager supplies in between. Due to income issues, I've *finally* started cycling through ALLLLLL those samples & such that I bought and felt *meh* about! Right now I'm vaping Mrs. T's Honey (sweet), which is okay...but isn't my beloved Belgian Breakfast from w2v! *sniffle*
I had to borrow some money to place my order (serious, SERIOUS income issues right now!), but that was money well-spent. Gosh, I had soooo much $$$ last month not smoking (+ I was just using old supplies!); I am *so* broke this month, even only smoking a pack every 2 days!
I think I'm getting my cousin onto the vape as well; he likes my eGo, likes the way vaping feels & even likes my waffle-flavored syrup! BUT...he wants a black vape with a blue light (*rolls eyes*), and he'd like it more cig-shaped, so I've directed him to the 510. I'm hoping to find a realistic-tasting Red Bull, because I think that will be the final selling point to get him to finally buy it (he lives on the NH border & has cut back on analogs, so it's not costing him very much right now & is wary of dropping some cash on a kit). heh heh - here's hoping!
I've blathered enough (I talk this much - and super-fast, I'm told! in person as well), so I'll end here.
