New guy looking for e cig to stop smoking

[Smoking joe]

Thanks Mac,

I was look at the 510's but heard about the battery and I don't want to be stuck W/O one so thats why I like the ego. the kit that Jimmy putting me on looks really good thinking about going with them. Have you heard about "goodprophets.com and there rep? Don't want to go higher then what I need as far as nicotine juice.
want to quit! live a better life.

By the sounds of it Joe you would do well with the eGo, I am not familiar with that company but if you look in the forums they have threads dedicated to reviews of companys and ecigs. As far as nic levels are concerned you don't want to start to low or it will make it hard to quit analogs. Better to wean yourself down a little at a time so you don't go back to smoking, send for a couple different strengths like 24 or 18 mg to start with and see what keeps the cravings away for you.

Joe I was the same as you. A PAD Newport Smoker. I went with the V4L Ultimate Auto Kit and their Smilin Menthol Carts. Haven't looked back since.

 

[Smoking joe]

Man, made the order. looks like they are going to ship orders on tuesday, due to Holiday. Hoping to get It by friday lol watching youtube vids on It Till I get It. Afraid I might like it too much and never get off It lol Could this be true? Do wish It had a l.e.d on the front but guess I'll get over that. Still got that analog mentality messing with me.

Hear you Focused, Man I love "Newports" grow up on then! In Middle school I could buy half a pack for $1.00 now It's one for $1.00 That sucks!

Afraid I might like it too much and never get off It lol

I don't see that as a problem what so ever. I love my 510 and am sure that I will upgrade to the EGO in the future but for right now the 510 suits me and my wife just fine.

I was inbetween the 510 and the ego...I finnally decided on the ego with cignot...I ordered on Friday, got the same day email saying it was mailed out...If not the holiday weekend I would of gotten it on Monday..But I should get it by Tues... What ever you chose You will be happy with it...I started out with a No7 and after a month using it...with only one atty and 2 batts... It's still going strong...although I have yet to kick the ciggybutts..The ecig still helped me cut back to only around 5 a day....

Hey, I just started about a week ago and heres how it worked for me. I did the same thing youtube video thing. I just wanted tomake sure I got a name brand because there are soooo many knock offs out there. I went with a joye 510. mainly because it appears to be a staple in the e cig world. Second, I went with them becasue I was able to get a double kit for $40.00 from nicotine nirvana. They still sell them at this price by the ways. I have been smoking for about 15 years, a pack a day. I can count on one hand how many real cigs I have smoked since I started a week ago. I didnt even try, it just happened. I mean, I can get my fix with out having to stink and deal with the mess. Not to mention I dont have to go outside to vape. Now the 510 is a great egic and its fairly cheap. When the time comes to upgrade. Heres the thing. Joye ego is like the bigger brother to the 510. Its awsome and I want one now!,lol. Anyway what nice is the 510 and the ego are interchangeable. The batteries swap out and everything. The only thing is that they have two differant battery chargers. These are the only two that I have looked at that there is nothing bad to say. Ive heard bad things about the 801 and 901 or what ever they are called. But yeah, joye is the brand and 510 and ego are the models.

 

[Smoking joe]

Yeah Ya'll, From what I was you-tubing 510's were the way to go. but dug deeper and saw that the ego had a better batt. And In my price range got the plug from jimmy w/a good deal and went w/It. Feel I made a good choice. Sucking on a Black and mild at the moment but that will change very soon.

 

[Lisa B]

Great job Joe, you made an informed decision and think you made a great choice. You will be vaping in no time and won't even miss those smokes. Happy Vaping!!!!!

Thanks Lisa, Really excited about It ! I know some people think I'm wasting my money on It. I know better. It kills me when people say "JUST Quit! I'm like "hey .... hole! If it was that ez then I would be doing it. I did stop one cool turkey long time ago for so years then got back on It. Then I stopped w/the Nig patches for about 8yrs!! Out of nowhere I started again Why?! Don't know Just happen Like a bad dream! But I tryed doing It again and this time It's so hard! a day or two and I'm losing my mind! So what I can say Is keep your guard up cause It could sneak up on you If you let It.

Congrats Joe! You will be very happy with your choice. I had been lurking here for 5 months before I could actually buy something. I knew i wanted the eGo or Tornado but price was an issue so I ended up settling for the 510, and yes genuine Joye! The 510 is a little slimmer than the cigs I was smoking (I rolled my own with Zen 100's tubes) but it only lasts me 1-3 maybe 4 hours at most. I realized if I was going out for the day 2 batteries wasn't going to be enough. Imagine your at the soccer field for hours on end...and I knew it wouldn't work. I found a good price on open stock eGo batteries and bought one with the charger (you can't use the 510 charger on an eGo or vice versa). My eGo lasted me 12-13 hours yesterday and I smoked about 2 packs a day if not a little more everyday. The eGo battery is somewhat larger than the 510 but I don't mind; I think it will keep me from losing it so easily in fact. In the first 2 days I actually put a lighter to my e-cig; I didn't light it but I took it out like I always did and seriously almost tried to light it as if it were a cig. I will laugh about that for a long time.

I smoked a few analogs the first 10 days...but usually only 1 or 2 a day and the last 2 days I haven't smoked a single analog. Every succeeding analog I've smoked since the days posted in my tag below has tasted a lot worse than the last.

I quit coughing within the first days and a week later I realized I could sing without coughing through the lyrics. Now you might not want to hear that...hahaha

When you get your e-cig in order yourself some more liquid once you decide on a nicotine level. I almost ran out waiting for my 2nd shipment to come in; don't do that to yourself. Find a supplier (their forums list the geographic area they are located) in your area and give them a try so that you are only a few days from receiving it.

And remember if you absolutely have to have an analog there is no reason to give analogs up completely at first or at all; it's your choice. Any analogs avoided are good whether few or tons.

 

[Smoking joe]

Yeah Myrc, I can see that happening with me and my zippo. I order some e juice just to get me by till I can stock up. Good to hear all the good feedback. Haven't hear anything bad about this product so far. Looking to tell people about it. spread the word. I know first times i saw the "Blu" ecigs I was like "yeah ok" thats going to work! then I went into a shop w/a friend -smoke shop and there was a cheap one on display so I ask and went home and tubed It. Got some much more Info and found myself here. Glad i did.

Happy weekend folks. Thanks so much.

Since you went straight to the Ego you're way ahead of most of us. Saved you a hundred bucks or more, and a lot of frustration. I wish I'd found this forum before I'd bought my first one.
