I ordered my 510 kit on 11 april and it arrived 3 days later as expected. After giving the batteries a good charge, I've been vaping non stop for 2 weeks. I haven't bought a pack of cigs for 20 days and already I've noticed some huge improvements in my sense of smell, etc. I've been a 1.5-2 pack a day smoker for about 12 years and as soon as I received my 510 I haven't had a single craving. I've also noticed I feel more relaxed than with real cigs, certainly a plus! I ordered 8 small bottles of different menthol juices to find something like what I was used to. wasn't really impressed with any of them, though I noticed a few of them weren't menthol at all.. more sweet and with a licorice taste to them which it turns out I really enjoyed. as a result, this has encouraged me to experiment further with other liquid flavors which I just ordered.
2 weeks in and I just ordered an eGo PT, some extra attys (now I have 9) an extra 510 battery, drip tip, extra whistle tips, and a couple cartos to give them a try. (My first e-cig was 2 years ago from a gas station.. 'Fuma' it was called. it had a carto setup and I quit smoking for 2 weeks with that. but $15 for 3 cartos that didn't last even a full day got expensive so I went back to analogs until I got my 510) I also ordered 25 bottles of differently flavored liquid. maybe I'll find something I really like. though so far my favorite is Black Ice that I got from cignot. no throat hit on standard 510 setup but it's a great smooth flavor. I just ordered an 18.5 ml bottle of that for my morning vape. we'll see.
I'm excited to get my PT as I am literally constantly charging my batteries and twice now I have found myself with 2 completely dead batteries and have smoked a couple analogs because of that. I will tell ya this.. short of running out of liquid or battery power, it's hard to go back to analogs even after only 2 weeks with my 510.. they taste terrible!
I'm still learning.. I need to perfect my 'technique' as I'm unsure if the way I use my PV is incorrect. I just have a really hard time giving it a break in between each puff. I usually hit it 2-3 times and give it a break for a couple mins. I'm not sure if this is bad for the atty or not. with the PT, I've gotta read on the forum some more and make sure I'm not gonna break anything
best I can figure, I'm using about 3ml of liquid per day, so the order I just placed will get me through the next 6 weeks. I'm happy about that, as I've only spent a fraction of what I would spend on cigs for that same length of time. and while I've put much more into the hardware so far, it's definitely an investment that I'm happy I made. I was thinking of giving the tank systems a try next after I do a bit more learning..
I would consider myself a heavy vaper, as I haven't been able to put my 510 down for more than a few mins at a time.. it really is like a pacifier for me but it's for a good cause, right?
One more thing before I end this very long post: I have a son who is turning 6 in 2 weeks. the day he was born I promised him I would quit smoking. I've tried several times and many methods (chantix, patch, e-cig, etc) and have quit for weeks and months at a time. but so far, vaping with the 510.. well, my boy is so proud of me for not smoking and he's excited about all the money I'm saving so I can buy him more toys this may just be the best decision I've made in a long time!
