number two
I quit on sept 13th I had my last smoke That morning had lost my job, Knew my wife would kill me If I kept on buying Analogs, Figured Id heard about vaping so looked for a brick and mortar store that had allright reviews. Went in said im a newb help. They set me up with a kamry x6 battery v/v and a protank 2 , It was like sucking a golf ball through a tube, so they did some modification and drilled one of the holes a bit bigger. was out of there 76 dollars later, a full set up 30 mill bottle of juice. and Havent touched an analog to this day. vaping is awsome. now Im looking into diy juice Because Im thinking down the road that is where there the FDA will try to regulate. But thats my story and Im sticking to it

Not sure on the number, but I started with a basic eGo and a Kanger single coil tank with 18mg RY4 flavor. When I bought my starter kit, I had 5 cigarettes left, and it took me 3 days to finish them. Never bought anymore after that. I took a couple drags off other people's cigarettes over the next week or so and ended up saying yuck and handing them back.
1. Yes, I started with cigalikes, used them until I quit smoking, and have not resumed smoking. Shortly after went with an ego set up which sealed the deal.

It took me about 5 days to completely quit smoking tobacco cigarettes. I used cig-alikes for the first 6 months or so, but was on the lookout for something non-proprietary early on, as the FDA was on the warpath back then, attempting to ban e-cigs. I knew they worked for me, and wasn't about to be stuck without another option. And I got tired of refilling cartos all the time. I was intrigued with bottom-feed mods, and bought a WetBox in the summer of 2010. It was cheap and leaky, but I loved the concept. When the REO Mini became available in the fall of 2010, I managed to get my hands on one of the first batch. Been a REO user ever since.

It depends on how you look at it.
I had tried cigalikes out of curiosity, and it never stuck.
A couple of years later (this year), after hearing good things from a co-worker, I got a rebranded EVOD kit and quit immediately, without really trying.

3. No, I started out with cigalikes and they didn't work for me. I later quit using more advanced PVs.
Tried cigalikes in 2010 out of curiosity, taste bad almost no vapor.
Tried iClear 16 in May 2014, stop smoking cold turkey, then go with evod tank, aro, trophy tank, aerotank, protank (3 and mini 3), kayfun, some drippers (igo-w3 and monkey brass), RSST, nautilus, ithaka, kayfun mini then taifun.
Using ego battery from smoktech, innokin SVD, Astro, KSD Novice then GP-PAPS.
Goes from Feellife liquid, Hangsen, Dekang, Liqua then DIY Liquids (flavor from TPA and local vendors)
Lately I find myself fiddling with simpler tanks like trophy tank and aerotank, because I'm a flavor junkie and tend to experiment with flavor.

2, I had a friend who steered me down the 18650 path and it went off about as well as it could have. Sure, there were tense moments but overall it was pretty easy.

e-go filled with Mt. Baker dreck > zmax/nautilus mini w/ Charlie Noble (1st premium juice I tried)

I'll take the #3, #14 and a coke.
. . .. oh, say!, can I substitute glass noodles for the rice?

#2 for me. I started with two E-Go C-Twists and two Kanger Pro Tank Minis and some local juice. Once I started vaping, I didn't smoke after that. I was WAY surprised at how easy it was. It's been a year today.

No jokes in my threads until I get my Sumpin'.
So, fwiw, here are the results of this very unscientific survey:
1. Yes, I started with cigalikes, used them until I quit smoking, and have not resumed smoking.---------------------------------23
2. Yes, I started with 2nd or 3rd generation PVs, used them til I quit smoking, and have not resumed smoking.------------49
3. No, I started out with cigalikes and they didn't work for me. I later quit using more advanced PVs.---------------------------52
4. No, I started out with 2nd or third generation PVs and they didn't work for me. But I was later able to quit.-----------------3
5. Other (please explain)------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------4
It's interesting that there are so few No. 4 responses. Selection bias may not fully explain it.

Reading this thread is very enlightening. Turns out that even after 32 years of use, I was never addicted to the act of smoking, just the nicotine. I went long stretches without smoking using snus.
2....started with a joyetech, didn't care too much for it so I got an evod starter kit. Now have 2 kits and 2 itaste. The evods are my work vape. All 6 have different flavours.....
#2: Started om Ego/CE4 and moved on to regulated tube mods, then into mechs and dripping and them I got my REO Grand, the mod I've used the most and the only one I have left.
