New Vape Guy In Da House

[bcalvanese]

Hi,

My name is Bob, and I've been a heavy smoker for over 40 years. I am the kind of smoker that, no matter what I am doing, I have to have a lit cig (weather I smoke it or not), and can go through 2 to 3 packs a day (easy), and on the weekend, I can go through almost a carton. Smoking goes so good with everything I do, I just keep on lighting them up, and letting them burn away.

I saw some people using e-cigs at work, and it sparked my curiosity, so I picked up a cheap starter kit at the tabacco shop where I buy my smokes. I then started doing some research and calling around for a better starter kit, and found the BLU kit at Walgreen's. It worked pretty good, but as I did more research, I found the PROSMOKE and ordered that.

The small e-cigs work pretty good, and I have been able to cut down to a pack a day since I started using the PROSMOKE. My goal is to gradually switch to the e-cigs, but it seems like the cigarrete type e-cigs, although very close, don't quite satisfy as much as a real cigarette.

I decided that I think I need something that packs a little more OMPH, so I just ordered a SILVER BULLET from ALTSMOKE. I am new to all this stuff, so I ordered 2 carts, 2 low res atomizers, 2 6ml tanks, 2 drip tips, 2 batteries, and 1 30ml bottle of Americ 55 24mg liquid.

I figure that should cover all the bases to get me started, and I'm hoping this will have the extra OMPH I need to quit cigarettes.

Anyway, thats my story, and I look forward to what I can learn here.

Bob

Welcome. You didn't mess around going straight to an SB - saved you a lot of $$$ in the long run. You did get get extra batteries and a reliable charger(s) though right? I keep between 6-10 batteries in rotation for my mods and use a pair of Xtar WP2 chargers to keep them going.

This is as good a price as I've seen on these chargers and they work great, poor man's Pila...

Hi first congrats I smoked for 20 years not smoking anymore. Spent a lot of money on ecigs trying to find one that packs a punch so I know the feeling. After buying 2 different e cigs. Bought a unit called the provari from provape.com. It's a little pricy but I was spending that much a month on cigarettes anyway. Now its like exhaling clouds. Check out the reviews on utube. Have been cigarette free now for over a month. Don't even think about cigs anymore. Good luck.

No joke, as I was reading bc's post i was thinking the same, this dude needs a MOD. You'll never regret it (maybe only why you didn't get 2 of em). Good batteries as pointed out are pretty important as well. The way you "did" smoke it'll cover that pretty damn quick.

Enjoy being able to take a fuller breath of oxygen again, i know i do.

Hi Bob, good for you! I also smoked for 40 years and now I've been cig free for 50 days! This vaping really works, keep at it and happy vaping.

Hi Bob, welcome to ECF and congrats. I also smoked for 40+ yrs and bought a Megalodon- a similar device to the SB and that's what did it for me- nothing like true 3.7 volts. If refilling becomes a hassle you may want to try these:

or the more expensive but rebuildable clearomizers:

Happy Vaping and the Best of Luck.

Thank you. Yes, I got one extra basttery and charger, so that should be enough to get me started and have one charging while using the other one. If the unit works out like I think it will, I will order more stuff.

I started with a v2 kit and it was okay. No real complaints. After buying the Provari a good charger and some aw imr 18650's with some good carts and juices I have found myself not only not looking back but preferring the ecig. I'm a new ex smoker and I occasionally still get cravings (when my friends are smoking outside) but there's nothing like a good flavorful vape!
