Woot Unc! Isn't it great to hate a real cigarette?

Yep! When I quit smoking I didnt do it intentionally. I had been a while without a cigarette and didnt have any so it just happened I became a vaper. Unlike many on here I sort of always missed it but vaping could satisfy those cravings. In glad I had the analog as now I'm certain I don't. I got some new flavors in the mail and ive crossed the break even point so no I'm saving with ecigs.

    Sweeeeet!!!! I got a metal tube for my vivi nova because a couple of my plastic ones started getting hairline cracks and I put some shipping tape on em.

    I haven't cared a whole lot about the looks for my vaping goodies, but I really really like this...yippee skippee. I'm loving my short tube also - now my PV rides perfectly in my jammie pocket :D

    I'm almost three weeks in without an analog. Last night while I went out with some friends. The bar we were in was very smoky and all of my friends smoke. I bummed an analog from a friend and shared it with another. I found it to be disgusting, very heavy and bad tasting. The taste stayed in my mouth forever. Just wondering if any former smoker ever slips up and has an analog?

    I would feel bad about it but I wanted to just try one and see. I'm content with vaping and don't want to switch back, and trying the analog completely reaffirmed that.

    Excellent Unc! Congratulations to you! I'm so glad the transition was so easy for you. I was able to quit the first day, but that's not the usual way, most people ease into it. It's SO nice to have an alternative to cold turkey and drugs. It's been over a year for me and I'm still loving it and learning new things. There's a lot of good info from the good people on this thread.

    Kat here is a picture of the EVOD with a Spinner!

    I am really liking this a lot! Good looking, neat and classic. I especially like the finish as it is the same as the Spinner.

    Good vapor, great taste! I'm using pre-made juice from MsT (Snickerdoodle) one of my favs.
    Am using 18 mg., and finding it a bit too strong now......that's a good thing!!! :)

    Vaped it for the drive to and from Church this morning, and I'm definitely going to get more!!

    Congratulations Unc I too made the switch rather easily. I smoked 3 cigarettes early on when my brother was in ICU and didn't enjoy them. That was three years ago and now 2nd hand cig smoke makes me sick to my stomach so I stay as far away as possible. I don't think I could go in an enclosed place that allowed smoking now. Good luck on your journey. It only gets better with time.:)

    Since I like the smaller PVs, this one is 650 mah.........got it at AltSmoke.com

    I actually like it better than the Twist.......the Twist seems to run out of power a lot quicker than the Spinner! The Twist is also 650 mah.

    When Mike smoked a pipe he had a cherry tobacco that I thought smelled wonderful. Maybe that's what I need to add to his tobacco flavors to help - if the cherry flavor is detecable in the vapor. It's funny, but I really don't like what his vaping smells like most of the time. You'd think after smoking for so many years that it wouldn't bother me. The tobacco vaper does not smell like cigarettes, and it's very different than how it tastes. I can't stand the smell of cigarette smoke except that first puff, when the cigarette is first lit. That still smells wonderful to me. Seems strange. Other flavors of vaping smell wonderful and even other people seem to like some of the flavors.

    When I smoked a pipe Cherry Vanilla was one of my favorites too. I've tried a couple of cherry vanilla e-liquid flavors but they didn't taste similar to the pipe tobacco. If you ever come across one let me know I would like to try it.

    tx, I may be completely wrong, but I'm thinking if one made up a nice bottle of Captain and a bottle of Cherry, then tried adding some already mixed cherry to some steeped Captain, it would probably be awesome! Captain is like a vanilla-ish pipe tobacco and very good. I don't have any cherry flavoring or I'd try to do it and send ya some. Wonder if black cherry would be better, or regular cherry. hmmmmm. If I get any and try it, I'll be sure to let ya know. :)
