New vapor, hello..

[Brandon610]

Just started to vape today after getting my items in the mail today.
So far i like it, can not stop vapeing.


I would spend about $1.15 for a pack of cigar smokes, that would last me about 4-5 days and a
Carton of cigar smokes about $11 bucks that would last me about 4-5weeks.

So I was trying to see where i was saving money if i switched to an e-cig then spending 1 dollar for a pack of smokes.

took me about 2 weeks to finally give in and find a kit what i could try, didnt want to spend $100+ on a kit, that i was just not sure if i would quit smoking and switch to e cigs..
Found a kit at happy esmoker
Happy eSmoker Cartomizer Starter Kit
+ 2 10ml e juice 6mg each
and
got a Smoktech Pyrex DCT tank- to try out flavors
which all came out to about $60 bucks..

So far i am glad i made the switch to an e-cig, as i have not picked up a smoke and dont fill tired too, after i take a few drags from my e cig, like i do after i finish a smoke.

But i can not take a big long drag on my e cig with out coughing, so i just take med drags.

thanks for your time....

Hello Brandon, I just started vaping a week ago and when I did, I asked for advice here so I am going to tell you the best advice I got from here... "an ecig is NOT a cigarette or cigar - don't smoke it like one". I have found that it is best to let the ecig do the work for you. Take slower puffs then you would with a cigar. I was a smoker for 20 years and have only had one cigarette this week (that was today) - it tasted nasty after a week without one and only vaping... so get used to never wanting to smoke another cigar. It took me about 3 days to get used to my PV and not have a sore throat or want to cough - take your time and you will get the hang of it.

When i first started vaping, about 9 months ago, I could not put my v2cig down! it was so new and fascinating! I ended up switching from V2 to Blu's which was a huge mistake.. I was on the blu's for about a month before the batteries started to malfunction and the price of the new cartridges was breaking the bank. I then switched to the Janty Ego which leaks but is manageable. Janty.com is IMHO a great website for beginners looking to upgrade to more advanced tech.

Welcome Brandon. Ecigs won't save you much cash compared to cigar smokes or rolling your own smokes, but its money well-spent. And if you can avoid the temptation to buy a lot of shiny new vape toys, you can keep your costs pretty low...cheaper than buying marlboros anyway. Vape away & enjoy!

Welcome to ECF! Compared to what you've been buying you probably won't see too much in the way of saving money. Like kottonmouth said, stray from buying too many vaping toys and you'll be fine.

Welcome to EFC Young Sir. I have been Vaping for 2 weeks and Love it. I have completely put the analogs down and have not looked back. If I were you I wouldn't do the Ecig. I would get a good Vapor kit like the EGO-C with the Evic tips and enjoy.. I have this kit and am very much impressed. You will also notice that the men and women on this site are so full of helpful advice and are here for all of us newbies.
