So I'm not actually a smoker, but everyone in my family is, and my girlfriend of 7 years was a HEAVY smoker, as in 2.5 packs a day.
She started smoking when she was 19 because of her dipsheet Ex and was completely unable to quit.
Fast forward to about a month ago and while at the local store buying her yet another $70 carton of cigs I noticed they had a Blu E-cig disposable on sale for $4 and so I picked it up and let her try it. It was an odd scene as she instantly smoked less of everything, and when I questioned her about the Blu she said it was harsh on the first drag but she didn't want to use it all up because she kind of liked it. I tried to tell her it wasn't an issue and if she liked it I'd get her more but basically her smoking was cut in half for the next week.
When it finally died she acted as if she had lost a friend and she also polished off the carton of Cigs. At this point I did some research thanks to a thread on a site I won't mention here for shame of peoples E-cig systems and her input was that it had to be light, and thin as possible to be close to a real cigarette. She was not at all interested in any of the mods, etc. I finally talked her into a Ego-C Twist after much debate and so I placed an order at MyVaporStore since I hadn't found this forum yet. I got her a pair of 1000mah Joye twists and a Viv Mini Nova knock off they had. I then for good measure went to MyFreedomSmokes and got a Vision VivNova 2.5 as well. not sure why I did this mind you.. but I'm glad I did. I also ordered Coffee Expresso, Caramel, Tiramisu, Clove and peach flavors from MVS. I told her basically, "I am spending you Cig money on this stuff, so use it or go without". Seemed mean but she understood the health issues and the cost of analogs was just too much to let her go on like this.
So now I have some issues that you fine folks may be able to help with. All of these flavors I got except the clove and peach are pretty bad. I got the 24MG versions since she was such a heavy smoker and they burn when inhaled, and are very bitter. Not to mention the burnt taste she occasionally gets from both of the Nova tanks when she runs a bit low or doesn't remember to leave it tipped when not in use. The worst by far is the coffee, she's an avid coffee drinker and she hates it. Loves the clove and peach but the others are just going to sit. I'm thinking the Kanger ProTank may be a better way to go despite the heads burning out much faster but I need some place that sells truly great flavors so she sticks with it. And any suggestions on a different tank setup that is small, matches well with an ego-c twist, and is fairly maintenance free? She still has about 20ML of peach and clove to last her a while but I want to keep her interested the best I can.
Also, not an analog in almost two weeks!...Sadly I've fooled around with them nearly non stop trying to find setting she liked and the proper Ohms for the heads and the juice so I'm kinda hooked myself..
My name is Dave and I truely appreciate you guys being here for folks quitting and nubtards like myself!
