Wanting to quit a 30 year smoking habit and after trying many methods out there, I decided why not give e-cigs a whirl. But I wanted to be well informed before I made the plunge so I could give myself the best chance of success. Well, doing a search for e-cigarettes will pull up probably ten times as many ecig retailers as there are analog cigarette brands on the market so getting lost in the hype can be pretty easy.

What a relief to find this forum! Granted, it still took me a while to find all the details I needed/wanted to make my decision on a starter kit, but it was well worth the time spent. I got my starter kit (decided on a Halo G6 standard) a couple of weeks ago and am closer to quitting analogs than I have ever been in the last 30 years!

So I know all the disclaimers state that ecigs are not intended to be a smoking sessation remedy, but for me, the proof is in personal results. I am down from a little over a pack a day to a pack lasting me a little over three days and am very confident I have finally found my way to quit for good. :2cool:

I'm still learning from this forum as well and predict I will be for a long time, so thanks ECF!

Welcome...!!!
The process is different for everyone, one does what works for themselves. Smoking was a very personal thing for me but so I was my plan to quit the many times I made the effort. All of those efforts failed miserably. Thanks to my wonderful bride who made decision to check out the vaping products over this last Thanksgiving we are both smoke free. I have never felt so positive in the effort.
Good Luck to you in your journey.
Stick around here and remember HERE you are never alone..!!

Welcome to ECF! Vaping has worked for me. I started with an eGo-W and am pretty happy right now. Fighting off the urge to jump onto the mod train. Besides the wife would jump all over my ... if I started going down that route.

I was about to take that route too but then my E-go arrived 3 days ago and now I have no urgent need. I'm sure I'll find a reason though!

The only reason vendors can't call it a "cessation device" is because the d&*$ FDA requires clinical trials that take alot of $ and time. We ALL know it works, but it hasn't been "proven" in a clinical setting.

It doesn't really matter though, once you try it, you KNOW it helps get rid of analogs.

Welcome to ECF! Keep vapin!!
