Hi; I'm Alan, living in UK. Unreliable ecig products have, regrettably, driven me back to smoking normal cigs again. The first product I got had really good battery life, but the cartridges were spent after about 10 puffs. The second product has a long lasting cartridge/atomiser but, the batteries lose their power within 5 - 30 mins, despite having been on charge overnight.

I really want to give up smoking normal cigs but, the unrelaibility of ecig products is making it impossible. Can anybody recommend a product which has both cartridge and battery durability? I'd be very grateful to know of one that I can obtain here in the UK. Thanks a lot
Hey everyone I'm from Chicago :)
Hey Alan welcome to ECF along with Rosa's suggestion you can also look at Cloud 9 Vaping - e-cigarettes, eliquid & e-smoking supplies shop

Hi all, Just wanted to say hello, I have been vaping for about 6 months. I have to say this the best alternative to real smokes I have ever tried. :) - I still smoke the ocassional cig, but have reduced my habit from almost 2 packs a day to a pack once in a while. I have the Joye 510 loving this unit. First vap i had was the Firefly, and highly recommend against it, was a waist of money.

Hello all,
here's a new vaper signing in... vaping since 23/12/2010.
Has been "lurking" in the ECF forum, but would like to be active.
So many people are kind and helpful in here. :)
Will post my "sunshine-story" later.

o&o Jan.

Hi, welcome to the forum :) ... what's the sunshine story?

Hi Rosa,
thanks for asking. The story is to go from 20+ cigs a day to 0 - and at the same time doesn't feel deprived of my daily pacifiers, or anything...

Some weeks ago I realized that juice was running low (since the 1st time order), and that an expected delivery apparently took it's time. So, I bought a pack of cigarettes to withstand waiting time - but WHAT a relief when juice turned up... Haven't used analogs since! (Had 5-6 pcs... ).
Managed to "panic order" 3 extras orders at different vendors at the time, so that one would eventually turn up. All 4 did turn up, since.

So many advantages to not burning tobacco..... Next is to cut in the nicotine consumption.

Still goes out with my colleagues for the "fresh air" - now with the battery companion.
And I'm advocating mildly but firmly via my own revelation (yes, a little religious sounding :2cool:), but only to a certain point!

And DYI and modding and... yay.

Regards and best wishes, Jan. :)

PS: I hope not that the N.Y. E-cig ban proposal will be a reality!

Dear DropEmCigs,

Congratulations on your cig reduction! It is so amazing to hear that you went from 20+ to 0! Yeah! There are recipes on the net to make your own nicotine juices. Have you taken a look at them?

I have been helping many of my clients "self adjust their nicotine levels". I found that the easiest method is to keep a spread sheet handy. Start with something easy like 9 drops of Nicotine E-juice and 1 drop of Zero. I have found that by doing it by drops versus the already pre-mixed lower nic juices, my clients feel like they have more control and reduce their nic level faster.

In January I received some awesome news from two of my clients (husband and wife) that were smoking for over 30+ years. They were consuming 2 cartons of cigs per week each! Today they are nic free! They only consume zero nic juice and it only took them 3 months!

I threw a party in their honor! They were creating 20,800 cigarette butts per year! I am so tired of seeing them all over the place! I am still bouncing from the news!

You can accomplish anything you believe you can do...

Peace and light,

Rebecca : )

Hello Rebecca,
yes, it's nice to not use tobacco. I do already have a numbre of flavours and some Nic-juice, but haven't yet found the right combo. No problem in that, though. Some readymade juices are really good - some are not.... Anyway, I'm fully aware of the Nic. concentrations, and would not like to increase rate - more like cutting down. No particular rush with that, though. I like the vape feel, so far. And will soon get a new "load" of flavours that must be tested.

Good to hear about your own succes story(-ies). That's something !! :) Seems like many in here can produce a good story. Makes an impression.

Good luck. Jan.

Hi everyone, I received my first e-cigarette yesterday, an NJOY pen style. So far, it's rocking my house!
These gizmos rock! I've been smoking "analogs" for 30+ years.Saw an ad on cable last wek for some e- cig.Don't remember the brand but got on line and checked out some u-tube vids.Ended up ordering a safecig kit.Didn't expect to be this satisfied with it.Haven't SMOKED a cig for six days now.Funny thing is I wasn't buying the e cig to stop smoking,just to be able to get a nic fix whenever I needed one.The only problem is as a RYO smoker I've still got over two lbs. of good tobacco in my humidor.Guess it'll just have to age.:p

I would save them. When you start getting new juices you can expierament and mix small amounts together to form a better tasting juice. That's been working for me.

hello everyone, my name is gervis and i just turned 48, i live in hampton, ga, across the street from ATLANTA (go figure) motor speedway

first off, i hope my typing habits dont annoy anyone, its not meant to, i just type real slow with two fingers, lol

i have yet begun to vape, but it is inevitable and i am determined, i have been researching for about 3 weeks now, i have decided on the ego tank, now i just have to decide where to purchase, was gonna get a kit but i cant mix and match, i want the low res atty and the 1000mah batteries as opposed to the std atty and the 650mah batteries, so far looks like either ovale or tw

i have a question for the experienced, if i may, the juice, lol, what is the best option, i want to order several different flavors, probably 5 or 10ml bottles, premixed for now, i will definitely be "diy" shortly, i just dont want to get too deep too quick, if it helps, i currently smoke menthol lights, 1 pack a day, (not for long i hope), it isnt imperative that i find a perfect match, just a decent menthol taste, i really love my sweets, i like a little coffee with my FRENCH VANILLA cream and sugar, i am also mesmerized by that fog machine smell you get at the circus, always have been, we just went to the big barnum & bailey show in atl last weekend, can you vape that stuff ?, lol, maybe some kind of mystical woodsey smell, you know, something that brings medieval times into your head, loved the hobbit btw

well, i really appreciate yall having me and any info that can be thrown my way, i look forward to hearing back and conversing with everyone, until then, yall have a goodun ! Gervis
