Going to introduce myself so i can get my five posts in.. My name is Kim. I promised my kids that I would stop smoking cigs. I wasn't a "true" smoker, but I smoked anywhere from 1-2 cigs a day, to as little as twice a month. I have always bought a pack to smoke on vacations and the like. I was very much a social smoker. So with my kids getting older and wiser, they started to really beg for me not to do it. I researched e cigs. I sorrily made a rash purchase of green smoke about a year ago. It was ok, but expensive. It currently sits in a drawer and a lot of carts live in my fridge. I should really find it a new home. I now am a happy owner of an Aspire Atlantis kit. I love it, it's plug and play, and it tastes great. I did however go a little juice shopping crazy, and now have enough to last me quite a while. I do notice that almost all juices are too flavorful for me, and I need to cut it with unflavored VG. My current Fave juice is Charlie Noble line- pretty much everything- except Tripoli. I will give that a try again, but I am not too sure. Also totally loving Looper! So there is my long winded intro of sorts. I am glad to be here, vaping, and not smoking!

Welcome :)

As I often say in situations like this... if you have gone from Greensmoke (insert almost any of these vile brands) to an Atlantis kit, you are a star in my mind.

These dreadful e-cig companies just keep on selling their junk. Rather than realizing time has been called on these over-priced near-placebo products, they just increase the dubious reviews, spend more money and time getting all over the internet to convince people they still sell the #1 e-cig, or whatever. It drives me mad. Most of the 'brands' that call themselves the 'best' or 'most rated' or '#1' are just substandard products with a team of greedy business folk at the helm. One day the truth will out. Not soon...

So are the kids happy now?

Somewhere in the back of my mind reading between the lines I get the feeling the kids are going dang!! we've created a monster!

So are you vaping about 5 ml per day?

Ha HA! No not five- yet… About two on a heavy day. Most of the time I smoke it like a cigar and don't inhale, only because I am not exactly what VG and flavors do to lungs. But I do inhale cigarettes which we all know is carcinogenic… :thumb:

Kids are fine with the vaping. They think I look cool and Techy!

Yes! I was a clueless noob. I did get bad ... and learned how to refill their lame ... carts and put decent flavors in. I do still use it on occasions when I want to be stealth, and not bring attention to myself in different public setting. So it has some kind of purpose. In general it sucks. The atlantis is pretty great though. I am eyeing the istick 50 as well. The aspire sub ohm runs a little hot. I wish my vapor was a tad cooler. But I am not complaining too much!

welcome! and congrats! i have only tried two of the charlie noble juices but really enjoyed the commodore pearry - that rocked!


Funny! That's in my tank right now. Pretty great summer flavor! I love Sollers pointe as well. If you like a subtle banana, it's great. Also, Pistachio is amazing. Super strong, excellent all around. Mmmmm...:thumbs:

Seems to me like you'll be spending like tens times per month on vape compared to what you used to spend on cigarettes.

2 cigs a day, sometimes twice a month, to me seems like nothing,
