New to this!

[Buckeye_guy]

After finding this forum and reading for weeks, I finally dove in and ordered my first e cig last night! So excited for it to get here so I can start vaping and hopefully get rid of my analogs for good! Just wanted to say what a great and informative site this has been to help me get started. So many great videos, reviews and users giving info and tips on here. Can't wait for my stuff to get here this week!

Welcome to ECF I am curious what model you got. (510,808,Ego,etc...)

 

[Buckeye_guy]

I bought the 510 after reading reviews about it being a good starter kit. I ordered some extra supplies and juices also to try out.

Good first choice! I really wish I would have found this forum before I bought! (although I got lucky and ended up with a nice - though re-branded/overpriced - KR808D)

Welcome! I'm also brand new to this! I've been vaping for about 24 hours now and haven't had an analog in the past 24 hours either! So far so good! I hope your order gets there soon!!!!

 

[Buckeye_guy]

I don't think it can get here soon enough! lol

Been analog-free for about a month and a half, now. Half a carton of Marlboro Lights in my glovebox, and I haven't even been tempted! Started out with Safe Cig, then a SmokeStik and Hendu Elite (love it!), and 2 Riva kits. A Riva is permanently attached to my fingers, now. Totally obsessed with e-juice...got a new order from Mrs T's on the way, and about to order a Passthrough and a SS Pitbull when it's out and...and... Stop the madness! I'm broke!

Welcome! That waiting period after my first order was almost intolerable! And I ordered mine from China, so it seemed like it took a year. I had a little kit from 7-11, so I was at least using that until it arrived. It's been a really great trip, and this place is great too!

Congrats and welcome Buckeye !!

I remember how excited I was when I ordered my first kit. Actually I still get pretty excited everytime I order something new, whether it's juice or hardware. You made a solid choice for your first e-cig. Don't forget to order yourself some extra juice to help get you going. Sometimes the pre-filled carts aren't exactly the greatest as far as flavor is concerned. Maybe order some sample sizes from a few different vendors to see what you like.

It's a nicotine high. Maybe I should lower my dosage?

Nah....

 

[Buckeye_guy]

I already placed a couple orders for juice, so i should have about 15 different flavors and strengths in a couple days lol

I was vaping a bavarian cream that I got from Madvapes last night, and my cats were climbing on top of me to get some of that second-hand vapor, haha.

Sounds like you're all set.

Welcome to you and Trickiwoo! You've started out the right way by reading and reading and reading BEFORE you bought. I think you made a safe choice to get started. Some stay with the 510 some feel the need for more TH or longer battery life or .... lol You get the idea.

I've just made it to my first full month analog free and I can tell you it does get easier everyday. I apparently was addicted to something else (as many people are) other than just the nicotine. The first week was very strange. NOT the hair pulling, ...... off, short fuse kinda thing we have all experienced when we have tried to quit before. But more of a what the hell is missing kinda thing.

My best advise is to stick with it and keep yourself determined to quite those nasty analogs for good. IMHO, ecigs are not an instant fix. You still HAVE to want to quite. E-cig's DEFIANTLY help far better than any other technique I have ever tried and I can honestly say that I will never go back to the stinky ones again.

Oh... One other little tib bit to help you on your new adventure. Start packing your pennies away cause you WILL be spending a bit on various juices and hardware until you find that perfect fit for yourself. Everyone is different so you might get lucky and will be happy forever with your 510 but you will still need to find the perfect juice.

pssst.... IMHO Backwoods Brew makes some of the best stuff out there.

Good luck! and happy vaping!

 

[Buckeye_guy]

My 510 finally arrived today!! It was easy to get started and I'm really happy with it, wished I would have tried this a long time ago! My second order of juices should be here tomorrow, so hopefully I will find one I really like. So far, no analog urges....

 

[closetsmokr]

Welcome to you all! I am pretty new to this, also! However, I have been enjoying the forums very much, and I learn something new every day! Some day, I hope I will be able to reciprocate on the great advice and info! You will love vaping, and those analogs will seem like total crap in no time! Good luck to you!

 

[ICEMAN 316]

welcome and enjoy your ecig

 

[sublimal08]

hopefully it would be easier for me to get one of this PV here. Will be trying to get mine soon im eye-ing on to the em-riva 510 should i include extra/spare attys and batteries too? or the basic kit with 2 attys and 2 battery is ok for a month or so before ordering extra/spare?
