New to vaping - for my wife!

[coyote_5]

My wife has been trying to quit on and off over an extended period, a struggle I'm sure many of you have dealt with as well. I became aware of these PVs in a thread on another unrelated forum. So I came here to start researching what this is all about.

Lots and LOTS to absorb, but we're starting with a MaXX fusion Bloog and crossing my fingers. Thanks to all the veterans for sharing their knowledge here!

Congrats to your wife coyote. I know the struggle of quitting VERY VERY well. Smoking for over 25 years and have TRIED everything out there. As a new vaper myself let her know there is some difference that will take getting used to. And she might still get urges to pick up an analog as I do. I think it all comes down to how much Nico you were getting from the analogs.

For instance if you were smoking 2 packs of lucky's for 20 years, dont think getting an 8mg nico juice is gonna cut it. The act of smoking was what i was really missing while trying to quit and e cigs take care of that part. She really has to want to do it as well, and in a few days time she will see the benefits of it

Thanks I appreciate that. I've been a social smoker in the past, but that is mostly gone for me. Once in awhile she'll convince me to have one with her as well, so I've been interested in trying these myself to see what they are like. We're starting with 12mg~ level cartos so we'll see how that goes. She thought 18~ sounded too high.

It's best to try a few different strengths and flavors when you first start out. It'll give you a better chance of finding what both tastes good and what nic level you need. I'd recommend you order some sample size bottles of different juices from somewhere. There's lots of places that sell them. If you start another thread asking for suggestions on that subject you'll get lots of answers. If your wife isn't amenable to making the switch don't push her too hard. For many smokers it's the constant barrage of "you really should quit" that keeps them from quitting.

I have an eGo Tank for regular use and I generally stock it with 18mg goodness, but have a standby 510 filled with 36mg tobacco flavor when I get a pang.

2 or three hits of that and I ain't missing a thing and I'm back on waffles, or mint chocolate.
