Hey guys/gals! I've been a lurker for a couple weeks and decided to post to say Hello and Thanks for all of the awesome information I've read throughout this forum.

About a year and a half ago after my wife and kids asking me to stop smoking many times, I decided it was time I tried an e-cig(with prefilled carts) that at first I thought would help me quit smoking(13 years of little over a pack of marlboro reds a day). It didn't quite work out the way I had hoped so I went back to smoking cigarettes. A couple weeks ago I wanted to give it another try and went looking for cartridges for my old batteries and somehow right before I ordered them(thankfully), I can across this forum through a google search. I read through the forum for hours after and decided on an Ego Twist and some mini vivi nova's and off I went ordering samples from all over the place lol

I read thread after thread of juice recommendations and I found myself ordering quite a bit to the point my wife said that's enough for now. But anyway to cut this short(as short as I can) I'm now on my 3rd day without smoking any analogs and I couldn't have done it without the helpful information that everyone here provided and for that I just wanna say thanks!

My wife and I have a baby(our 5th between us and first Daughter) due on 12/12/12 and quitting smoking was a high priority for me and became an even higher one with the little one on the way and finding this forum was truly a gift.


Oh and how the heck does one acquire some Boba's Bounty and Gorilla juice? Been checking AVE daily after reading so much about them looking to sample them and it's like trying to find a Turbo man on Christmas Day :facepalm:

Welcome to ECF and congrats on leaving the stinkies/coffin nails/cancer stick behind. Glad to have you. One thing I learned the hard way was the importance of a backup battery and atty. I have the ego twist 1000mah as a back up now and also have the provari. Once I got away from tobacco flavors it was one of no turning back for me. I just gave away about $30 worth of cigars. Along with a one of my humidors. Just could not bring myself to throw them away or as I had planned to burn them. LOL
If you have any questions do not hesitate to ask.

Thanks guys!

Steve, I did actually order another twist battery after I realized the first wasn't going to get me through a full day haha. I ordered a couple Kanger T3s after reading the thread about them but I can't get them to taste worth crap. Dunno what it is I'm doing wrong. I do love the Mini Vivi though and I just ordered a couple dripping attys last night from smartvapes.


Jazz/Mustang, I did go a bit overboard with them and still actually buying some sample packs but I had to slow down as my couch isn't very comfortable to sleep on ;) I think I prefer the fruit/sweets juices but I kept finding things I wanted to try after reading so many suggestions on here. I refuse to go back and this way I have plenty of different flavors to at least keep me busy trying to find those keepers!

Welcome to the ECF! Sounds like you went overboard but NOT really.. Your just excited as am I every single day when I know something new is coming!
Congrats on the upcoming baby and deciding to quit smoking!
Loving my mininovas but lent them out to a friend who desperately is trying to quit also!
Gorilla juice is awesome stuff!! and I also look forward to AVE getting these two flavors back in stock!
One flavor ave offers that I just absolutely loved was the HYPE! You mentioned you prefer fruity and lemme say that it's spot on melon/peach and perfect and I'M not even a fruit JUICE lover..

Funny you mention that juice, since they didn't have Boba's or Gorilla juice in, I couldn't wait so I ordered a couple anyway and that's one of the ones I ordered. I got Hype, Mountain Berry and Root Beer.

Looking forward to trying them out especially the Hype now! And of course still patiently waiting for the Return of The Boba's!
