Today is my first month since buying a pack and my first month vaping. By Sunday, I will be ciggy free for a month. I smoked one cig for the next three days after I started vaping after being a pack a day for 14 years. 24mg liquid really did the trick the first week, but I had to move down to 18mg when my nose started feeling numb by the end of the day.
It's been a tough month mostly due to equipment problems (leaky tanks). First two clear-o's were pure crap (liquid continually coming through the straw and burned the crap out of my throat) and got replaced before the end of the week. I upgraded my battery from eGo 450mAhs to MVP 2.0. Fixed a leaky Kanger atomizer only to cause a burned taste. Bought a 5-pack of iClear16s because they're not as problematic as the T3S. Bought a cheap RDA (Squid) to get me started on that route (still in the mail). I'm still not totally happy, but for now I have bigger challenges.
I bought a large amount of bottom shelf liquid that of which I only enjoy one flavor, and half I can't stand. It's discount brand stuff. I need to clear out most of what I have now before finding a new brand. But until then, vaping is not as enjoyable as I'd like. This is my number one priority for next month.
I still get cravings, but it's manageable. I ended up getting a lot of flavors in 6mg so I could try to step down my nic levels, but I think it might be too soon. Chain vaping is one thing. Hitting it like a fiend is another.
Dry mouth is killing me, even though I drink soo much water. I'm also coughing in the mornings and it's caused by vaping. How do I know it's from vaping and not from quitting smoking like most people attribute it to? My smoking cough didn't usually taste like raspberry lemonade
I've saved $130 by not smoking. I've spent $212 on liquid and equipment. So I'm down $82 but it's been worth it and I have enough supplies to get me through to the break even date.
In total, I'd rate my vaping experience a 7/10. I'm not enjoying a lot about vaping, but I've gotten off of ciggys and that has great benefits. I'm hopeful things will improve.
