New to vaping

[Ravenomic]

Well, I just got my first PV on Saturday. Today is my first day on ECF. I went with a Vapure, I ordered a Blu, but couldn't wait so picked up my vapure in the mall. Finally got my Blu today and I actually like my Vapure better. I have been filling it with menthol and love it. It actually tastes like a peppermint. I haven't stopped analogs completely yet. Unfortunately I still get a craving for one every now and then. I have cut them significantly just since Saturday. I have smoked 7 since. Normally I smoke a pack a day. I still have a strong urge to smoke with a cup of coffee in the morning. I have a good feeling though. Anywho, enough with the rant. Just wanted to give my experience so far with vaping. I look forward to meeting everyone on the ECF!

Welcome aboard...
The cravings will come and go, here's a hint on how to deal with them...LAUGH! Be amused by them!
You'll notice that laughing at the craving then grabbing the vape will actually get you through it, then one day, there will be fewer and fewer cravings... as if by magic... and you'll get through the day without a smoke.

Welcome to the ECF dvd!! Yes it will get easier everyday. The more you vape, the less you will want to smoke. For me, I was a 1 1/2 pad smoker for over 24+yrs and when I started vaping my last pack lasted me over 4 days. I told myself I don't need these anymore and haven't had one since. I haven't really had any bad cravings but if I do feel like one is coming on, I just grab my pv and take a drag or two and good to go. Anyway, glad you found vaping, it will get better, specially when you find some good flavors that you really like. Good luck!!

Welcome to ECF and congratulations on vaping, you are doing great!!! By the way, jj's idea of light reading is like studying for the bar. Lol read, read, read, and then read some more. If you have any questions just ask, there are always good people lurking around waiting to help. Happy vaping!!!!!!

Ahh, the good old days of getting my first e-cigarette kit! I am excited for you, you're on your way!
It's been 10 moths since my last Camel Lights analog, seems like such a long time ago. I don't think about smoking at all, vaping has replaced it. I recommend trying different e-cigarettes, especially the Joye 510 with a USB passthrough.

The standard Joye 510 manual e-cigarette kit (manual batteries are when you push a button to activate)

Here's the Passthrough

Plug the passthrough in this, so you're not plugging the passthrough into your expensive computer's USB port!

I order from a lot of different vendors, even HealthCabin.net in China. Joye 510 is less expensive then Blu or Vapure. Make sure you can fill your own cartridges, buying prefilled is very expensive and unnecessary. You can even do what alot of vapers do, and go to direct dripping.

Best of luck!

Wow guys, thanks for all the support. What a great community. Kinda like AA for smokers lol! It's great too see a product that actually works without horrible side effects. My goal is to not be smoking when my wife gets home from New Jersey on the 23rd. Will be a nice surprise and a great Christmas present lol.

I actually had already watched her videos, and because of that she got me to order 5 different flavors from FreedomsmokeUSA. Thanks again all!
