Hey everyone, I just signed up today and thought I'd introduce myself. I tried vaping to get off the cigs a couple years ago, but it just didn't work out (I was set up with an eleaf iJust starter kit). After thinking my device was broken (I was never shown how to use the thing) I gave up, and my smoking increased to over a pack a day.

Fast forward to June 2016, I decided to give it another try. I relocated since and noticed that I'm fortunate to live in a city which has a ton of vape shops, and got hooked up with an eVic VT starter kit, which was a much better set up for me. Since that time, I've only had about 10 cigs because they are continuously getting nastier the longer I vape. Haven't bought a pack in about a week since I purchased a Uwell Crown tank, and don't intend to.

good job.. I only use the uwell crown.. good tank.
If you need cheap coils you can get about 25 coils for $25 dollars shipped from fasttech.com
Takes about 3 weeks from China and typically you do get a few duds but not bad.
I just picked up a sigelei spark about a month or so ago. works well.. congrats

Welcome and glad to hear you're on your way to giving up the stinkies. Your experience is like many on the forum; cigarettes just start to taste nasty after a while of vaping. Best wishes for continued success!

Welcome

Thanks for the replies, everyone! I appreciate it.

Magikhat, thanks for the tip. I'll definitely check into that.

congrats on being smoke free! I am a former pack/day smoker myself, and I smoked for 20 years. So, you're not alone in your journey. I've noticed a big difference in cigarettes since I've quit. You'll start to see why non smokers hated the smell so much. I remember when I was a smoker, I never could smell second hand smoke that much, but since I'm vaping, you'll start noticing the smell quite a bit more. If you have ANY questions, feel free to ask.

And like Magichat said, coils can be had cheaply when ordering online, and especially at Fasttech. I'm a regular customer of theirs, and the only downside to them, is they're in China. So expect long delivery times.. so order in advance. I'd have to say most of my vaping gear came from them.

My wife still smokes off and on between vaping, and whenever she does, the smell seems so much stronger, even if it had been a little while since she last smoked. I can't believe I walked around smelling like that, thinking it wasn't noticable! I'm fortunate to have found vaping, that's for sure.
