Hi guys!
Im a guy in my early 30's from Norway who's been smoking for aprox 15 or so years.
Been lurking around on here for a few days now..reading for god knows how many hours.
Reading how you guys get off the analogs seemingly without much effort is a huge motivation boost.
I believe i have heard about these e-cigs in the past,but it first got my attention when i watched Johnny Depp vaping one in "the tourist" a few weeks back.
Then last week i was just bore-browsing on "dealextreme" when one of these "cigarett like"e-cig kits came up in the top seller category.Read a few reviews there and thought wow! i really got to get me one of these kits! Now at this point i started getting really excited,but without much reasearch other than watching a few youtube clips on the e-health cigs on offer,i went ahead and ordered the kit from dx along with some accesories.
Now that would probably be it if it wasn't for the fact that it can take up to a month to have a package sent from dx to Norway.
After a bit more reading i found out I could face problems with customs with nic coming from China,and that i should order from the UK as its allowed to import from there for personal use.
Read around some more,watched some more youtube videos,and ended up ordering the 510 complete kit from gecigarette.
After all, I want something that looks like a real cigarette right?!
Well,ordered that,some attys,some blank carts,some flavours,another manual battery.
Yeah and offcourse the flavours had to taste mostly like the smokes I'm already using right?!
I made that order on the 15th,registered on ecf,and went to bed so excited about all of this,and how it was going to change my life for the better.
Usually I fall asleep before I close my eyes,now I just couldn't stop thinking about this great invention. Full of hope I eventualy fell asleep,probably dreaming about vaping.
The next day I read some more,watched some more videos,and came to the conclusion I would probably need something that would get me through the whole day at work on one battery..
Figured out smoke flavours wouldn't really cut it,so ordered a load of 5mg flavours,high or extra high..hoping it won't be to high.
I roll my own cigs and have pretty much done it since i started cause of the cost here,they last longer and doesn't give me that much of a dry throat.
Anyways,hoping the 24mg will do it for me,have a few 18mg in the mix too just in case..
Made this order from liberty flights,came to the conclusion the Riva 510 would be good, so ordered that with some more attys,and some more carts..
Went to bed with the same excitement and trouble sleeping as the previous night,thinking now I finally have all i need and will last me a good amount of days.
Well I like shopping online! lol.. Read how some people fancy the cartomizers..realizing i didnt have one of those in my kits..also i could probably need a couple drip tips..new order..
Came across paradise vape uk...oh my free shipping! Never been a fan of red bull..who knows could be great vaping it! check. Cola? good reviews.. yeah sure..check, some more liquids..syringe would be neat..and the blue foam..carrying case...ALMOST embarrased how carried away i get..and i haven't even recieved anything yet! lol
It will still be cheaper than the $300 a month i spend now on cigs..Once i get off the shoppingspree...Only spent exactly £247.92..(I keep an excel sheet)...Thats not including the dealextreme kits i ordered wich i doubt i will ever try..
Got a cousin,and my mother really into this idea,saying i need to order for them too.
I will wait and let them try mine first..then they can choose wich type they want.
I'm yet to try an e-cig..But it just sound so awsome to me,the idea of pretty much smoking like a real cigarette without the 4000+ things that aren't good for you..All the positives i have with a cig,without the sideeffects.. it will be grand!
Stopped smoking for 6 months a couple of years back,but i kept missing the cig..maybe not the nic as much as just the smoke and having something between my fingers.. Oh and the fishingtrips without a cig...could of just stayed at home...lol..so I will try cutting down on the nic with time..just trial and error i guess.
Now i regret ordering just 3 of those cartos...think i need to head to liberty flights again..btw..a passthrough sounds awsome..oh oh and the pcc! for my genesis 510!...hmm probably should get some regular sized cartos aswell...
Don't know who bothers reading all of this..but it was good getting it off my chest!
Sorry for the long post! I intially just wanted to say hi! and thanks to all you wonderful people on here!
I'll post some updates to my vaping experience once my stuff gets here!
Cheers!
