I wouldn't exactly call myself new to vaping. I've been doing it on and off for about 2 years. I initially started with disposable ecigs to help quit smoking. That worked for a little bit, until I just couldn't be bothered to buy them. So I went back to cigs, which for some reason I could be bothered to buy? After a while I was feeling all the common side affects of smoking (cough, hack, mucus, short breath etc...) so I went to a local head shop/smoke shop and purchased a Green Leaf ecig which I stuck to even longer. I moved to Colorado with that ecig, and lived literally a block away from a really great vape shop (Shoutout to Triumph Tobbaco Alternatives!), so it was really easy to buy new flavors and tanks. But a few months later, I moved back to my good ole home state.... and forgot to pack the ecig. Shame on me. So.. then I went back to smoking for about a year, until about a week ago, when my friend gave me her x6 VV ecig, which I believe is an ego battery. I love this thing, I think it is great for newbies and newbie-ish people like myself. It is very inexpensive, and the battery lasts for a while. This feels like one I can stick with, and not go back to smoking with. Fingers crossed!
New-ish to vaping. (Quitting smoking... again.)

Thank you very much!Welcome aerie, hope this one does the trick! Good luck getting off the cigarettes and vape on!
With what experience I do have with them, it's easy to see why!Hi aerie,
A lot of us started out on the eGo batteries. You'll find a lot of folks here stayed with 'em, too.
Good luck you can do it!!! I have other things but still use my egos everyday to keep me from smoking
Glad to have you on the forum, aerie! Lots of great information here to help you on your vaping journey and plenty of good people to answer any questions that might come up.
Hiya aerie! I got into vaping way back in early 2009, but never got rid of the cigs completely and I just sort of gave up on it two years later and went back to smoking full time. A lot of it had to do with the poor efficiency of the equipment back then, but truth be told, I wasn't committed to quitting.
This past November, I decided to take another look at the vaping scene, and the equipment had changed and progressed so much I had to call my neighbor over to help me pick my jaw up off the floor.
I haven't had a cigarette since November 13th. A lot of that has to do with awesome vaping equipment we now have, but truth be told again, I really wanted to quit this time.
If I can do it, I guarantee you can too!

Do you still find yourself craving a "real" smoke? Does the vape seem to help the craving?
I am not craving a "real" smoke at all! I even tried to have a puff off of a friends cigarette after vaping for a few days, and to me the real smoke tasted... just dirty. I don't know how to explain it. It left a taste of actual dirt in my mouth, and VERY chemically. That was after just a few days back into vaping.
Welcome to ECF aerie! Whatever works for you is the best thing out there.
All the best to you, and let us know if we can help.

Thank you! I'll be sure to ask about things that peak my curiosity.
Good luck to you. I don't know much but after 25 years of pack a day plus smoking I am 2 weeks and a day off of cigs and very happy. Without vaping I don't think I could do it.
