Noobiest of Noobs

[hoodieweather]

Hello all.

I guess this is where I introduce myself and tell you some things about me. Well, I've been smoking analogs for about ten years now and I used to average about three packs a week. About two months ago, my younger brother turned me on to the idea of e-cigarettes and vaping. I absolutely love it. I still smoke analogs on occasion (six this past week) but I know I can eventually bring it down to zero. I'm very interested in what this site has to offer and what all you have to say. Well, that wasn't too long! Cheers and happy vaping!

Welcome, Hoodie! We all were noobs at some point in our journey. Enjoy your time here and happy vaping!

Don't worry about being noobie! I'm really new too and already asking tons of questions with still more I'm googling. Don't let yourself get overwhelmed, there's a *ton* of information out there.

We were all noobs once.

It took me a while to change to only vaping. I actually got 4 people to change to vaping before i had fully stopped normal smoking.

Thanks for the support guys!

Hey and welcome to ECF. We were all noobs, every one of us. The important thing is that you want to quit and you are willing to take the first steps.

Any questions you have don't hesitate to ask, we've all been there.

Any suggestions on online vendors? I usually go to my local shop but I'm looking to save some money. I was looking at discountvapors.com and I saw their official thread. Is there anyone that has ordered from this vendor recently? Or can suggest any other online vendors? Thanks, and cheers!

Welcome and good luck. As far as suggestions for online vendors, I will leave that up to the SI posse. But, they will come and you will have more suggestions than you can deal with. Just be patient.

Hello all.

I guess this is where I introduce myself and tell you some things about me. Well, I've been smoking analogs for about ten years now and I used to average about three packs a week. About two months ago, my younger brother turned me on to the idea of e-cigarettes and vaping. I absolutely love it. I still smoke analogs on occasion (six this past week)...

Welcome! I'm also a super noobie, but I have a suggestion that might work for you. Before I discovered "real" vaping, I got some cheapy e-cigs; the first was a kit from Green Smoke (which I sent back) and then a couple of Green Smart Living from my local liquor store. I got high menthol. Honestly, they are pretty ghastly, but close enough to analog cigarettes that I knew I could quit by using them. I then discovered vaping, so of course, the things ended up in a drawer. What I have found, however, is that if I am really craving an analog, the cheap ones work pretty well. They satisfy my craving (at 18mg) and are yucky enough they remind me of why I don't smoke anymore. - (Your mileage may very)

Hello hoodieweather and congratulations on your efforts to get away from the analogs! I too just started vaping (2 months now) and still smoke analogs until I feel comfortable with vaping 100%. This is a great forum and resource for noobs! There is soooo much information to learn !

Welcome to ecf. 2 years ago I tried an ego but failed because of the atomizers would constantly flood. Came back on the 4th with a new provari and haven't had an analog since. Hardest part is finding a good juice I'll be a DIY juice maker soon but in the mean time tin box mint from tasty vapor works good.

 

[Hulamoon]

Welcome and congratulations on doing so well! Depends what sort of flavors and or equipment you're looking for. There is a 2011 juice of the year list on the forum and here's a link to "trends" shall we say in the Top 5 vendors for primarily e-liquid. Of course saving money within the liquid area is a question of knowing what you like, so always go for a "sampler" or smallest sizes possible when trying a new juice. http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...cussion/304212-top-5-vendors-e-liquid-81.html And Discountvapers VapersChoice and Vapingme are all good stores imo. Health Cabin located in China, but very very reputable is also a great store - but as it is in China, it does have the disadvantage of China postal service so can take 5-6 weeks to receive an order.

Any suggestions on online vendors? I usually go to my local shop but I'm looking to save some money. I was looking at discountvapors.com and I saw their official thread. Is there anyone that has ordered from this vendor recently? Or can suggest any other online vendors? Thanks, and cheers!

 

[hoodieweather]

Thank you all for the suggestions! As of right now, I'm using the standard eGO-C from a starter kit and an eGo-Twist with a Stardust clearomizer. Cheers!

You will love this place I do, Just ordered my e-cig today... When I first got here I didn't know anything and was more overwhelmed then anything else. I knew I had to quit, With the help of some people from this site that guided me threw the whole, what I need and what I have to order process I am more excited about quitting the ever and I haved tried everything you can think of out there to quit I use to go to those we will hypontize you to quit smoking clinics where if you don't quit right there, they will pay you 50-100 dollars just to earn cigrette money. Because it didn't work....
