Hi please call me Shadow,
I was a carton a week smoker many years ago. I first discovered e-cigs about 5 years ago. They where really big in Europe and readily available there. However they where not readily available in Canada where I am from or in the USA, which makes shipping cheaper. When I first seen a E-cig in person almost 3 years ago I was scepticle because it was marketed as a stop smoking aid. One day I was like mehh... and I baught one for laughs and giggles not even considering quitting smoking at all. For a little slim device that you could get e juice and refill was expensive when they where first introduced. I tried it, smoked both electronic and anologs, I then ran out of cartons of anologs and never restocked with them. ever since then I have been smoking e cigs. I have been a constant e cig smoker for 2.5 years and just over 3 years if you include both the mixing. I first started at 24mg/ml of nicotine and used that for a good half year then I decided to get cleaver and my background coming from strong math skills being a Civil Engineer and me Knowing a Professional Chemist I sat down crunched some formulas and numbers and came up with a plan to work over a course of 3 years to fully wean myself from nicotine so I would be vaping 0 and one day walk away and never look back. I am now currently vaping 8mg/ml, with many bumps in the road and the bank account feeling the hit most the time, (Trust me lots of bumps and many days thinking I should just go back to anologs). Back then the calculations for me to smoke cigs vs vape it was actually cheaper to smoke anologs, but decided over a 3 year period if it works and I could get off of it for good would be well worth the investment to myself.

I read through some of the posts on the forum and other information that was gathered, man thats alot of reading on this forum I think it took me 5 days to read and I am not even through 1/8th of the forum yet... Although I come with lots of information and knowledge from this, I also don't know everything or claim to know everything.

Welcome to the forum, mate-I'm more of a lurker, really, but I've found this site to be invaluable for information on the topic of vaping.

I will say, as far as it goes, I'm a 0mg vaper 9 out of 10, but I still vape-never really been about that nic fix for me. But, as they say, to each their own!

Congrats on the freedom from regular cigarettes (though I've nothing against them personally-hell, RJR practically PAID for my state!), that's quite the accomplishment, to be sure!

As far as knowledge goes-share what you know, ask what you don't! It's the best way to be-this place is pretty up 'n up, with outstanding members, and, it's a fairly polite lot (that what I've seen).

Enjoy, and I look forward to bumpin' in, 'round the forum!
