Hey guys Im a new member here but have been lurking awhile.
Long story short...smoker for 8 years...quit for one year....met my beautiful fiancee and she was a smoker so started back up. 2 months ago we buy a Blu starter kit at walgreens while grabbing cogs. So many problems...they did send us 3 free kits since our PCC kept breakin right away. But in the end i wanted a fuller experience so we kept smoking. Fast forward...i now had money to spend so i bought us both a nice Ego setup to give this a real go. Got a 1300 mah Vision Spinner and a 1000mah EGoC twitst with protank and some other clearos...


All i can say wow! Wow wow. Light years ahead of Blu. Great tastig huge plumes of vapor. We havent smoke a cig in 3 days! Unheard of before.

We were sucking i between 10-15 smokes a day but I also used dip and Snus to quit...to no avail.


Were using between 12 and 18 mg to start out. I really havent even wanted a smoke...this is so much tastier and satisfying!

Ive had a massive sinus problem for months where i MUST take nasal spray on a nightly basis just to breathe. In the 3 days since quitting....i can already breath without nasal spray and my smell is already improving!

I was scared for us. I knew if we didnt stop soon wed be tied to smokes for the next 50 years until we died a painful, lung disease ridden death.
At 25...this caused me true anxiety! As
A person who knows addiction very intimately...i could see the signs and the signals that were worrisome.

Its such a relief! If not for this site we'd still be sucking on smokes and thinking that crappy cigalikes were the end all be all of vaping!

Anywho just sayin whats up!

Sounds about like my story, except my new wife doesn't smoke. In a way you're lucky, having your soon to be wife right there with you helps in the journey. My wife is great and very supportive but she's never been addicted and is tired of hearing about my vaping. Another fun fact if you ever get in a jam is those blu cartridges will fit onto your ego bat. They taste pretty bad but if you run out of juice and are stuck waiting for the mail man knowing where to get some non smoky nicotine is nice. Plus if you travel Walgreens is about everywhere. Welcome!

Protank huh? I have info on my blog (I guess dig around in my profile to find it) about re-coiling and putting new wicks in a Kanger Mini Protank II...when I went from stock coils/wicks to ones I made myself the vape was MUCH improved.


to mess w/ coils and get all fancy like that takes a few tools, but then you are really set to have a years worth of awesome vape action, if not more.


hm the counters...I cant recall where I found mine lol....it followed me home? Its happened before (but that last time it was Llamas. LLAMAS! MANY OF THEM).

AH, well...click ON the banner to get the banner:

Hi and wecome to ECF!

This is an awesome success story, congratulations. I hope it continues to go well for you and your fiancee. Now your only habit will be spending on the next mod/juice/battery/etc. ... LOL

FWIW ... my breathing, taste, smell and energy level have all improved since I switched over to vaping instead of smoking. As always though ... YMMV!

Thanks for all the support! This place truly seems to save lives and help millions. Even nonmembers can lurk and learn tons!

Can you guys point me in the right direction to start one of those sig cigarette and money saved counters? Id like to start one up.

Thanks again!

Tip ... look through the forums, find one you like, and click on it. Most of them will take you directly to the page where you can set up your own. The one I use also gave me instructions on how to make it work when I was done!

Thanks guys! I cant diss blu since like you they started me on my journey. They do however have some serious design issues. I filled a vanila carto with some juice and it works decent so i may mess around with that.

I simply love their vivid vanila flavor tho...havent found a good taste-a-like yet. Search is on!

Ill check on the sig thing later...
