Hi fellow newbies. I hope that you all are as excited as I am to give all of this a try. I'm a long time heavy smoker of 49 years. To be honest I didn't get the e cigs to quit. I just wanted to be able to ride in someone else's car and not have to make them stop every 5 minutes. Much to my surprise I found that I liked the e cigs... a lot! I can see myself giving up traditional cigarettes for this new way of getting my nicotine. At any rate hello to all.

Welcome to ECF and best of luck to quitting smoking! I have been cigarette free for 3 months now and feel great. Smell much better too! There are SO many options to what kind of set up will work for you. The variety of e-liquids and flavors is somewhat overwhelming. You have found a really helpful place to have your questions answered.

Hello and welcome!! I am relatively new as well. I started out with a V2 with the prefilled cartomizers just to give it a shot. I wasn't a heavy smoker but I LOVED to smoke. I have loved it off and on for a very long time. Today is 3 weeks since my last cigarette. It's hard for me to believe that I honestly have no desire for a cigarette now that I vape. It took me a little while to figure it out. I am sure I don't have it all figured out. And, what I am doing seems to be working.

I quickly moved from the V2 to a Joyetech eRoll. It's a sweet little device and I was able to put my own juice in the cartridge. I still use it when I am in the car or out in public because it's small and discreet.

I also use an eGo-C when I'm home. I bought a twist when it was on sale on Cyber Monday and some mini Vivi Nova's to try but haven't yet.

One thing I learned that seems invaluable to me is to let your juice steep. I bought some juice that I really didn't like when I first tried it. Now, after letting it sit for a week it's amazing!!

Of course, with everything, YMMV. Good luck!!!

Thanks the very warm welcome. I think the hardest thing about being new is figuring out what people are really talking about! lol I get the vaping is pretty cool way to think about it and I'm realizing that juice is not something to swig down by the glassful! It's quite a learning curve compared to yakking open a pack of smokes and lighting up!
