I never had the intention of becoming a non-smoker. I am just a gadget geek. I stopped analogs within 1 week of getting my PV (mostly because I had a few packs left and it felt like I was wasting money so i had to finish them up). I have noticed, like some others, that I can go longer periods of time without having that mindless urge for an analog. I do vape like a beast when I'm in front of the computer though. I can also see it being very easy to lower the nic lvl and eventually be off of nicotine all together. I've used 24mg juice and I am down to 18mg juice at the moment. So yes these things do have the ability to get you off analogs. If they can do so with a person with no intention of stopping they can do so for someone who has the intention.

TO KREL::::

I work in a casino and I have no urge or desire to have an analog at all.

Yeah, that's the thing that amazes me the most.

I only smoked around 5 cigarettes per day, on average, for around 25 years.
I could actually go all day without a cigarette, until I saw someone smoking.
But once I saw someone smoking I had to have one.

Now when I see someone smoking it triggers no desire in me whatsoever.
In fact, the only thing I want to do is tell them about electronic cigarettes.

Your mom said not to say...
If you have the mindset to quit these are an excellent tool. I was hoping to quit when I bought my first one, that was the plan and I figured it would be a slow process. I could not have been more wrong if I had tried to be! I was able to walk away from coffin nails without blinking since the moment I opened the box and took my first few hits. Granted, it wasn't love at first puff, the glycol taste is overwhelming if your not expecting it, now I can't even taste it. It didn't take long to adjust to the taste, just have to keep in mind that while close it's not going to match up with a coffin nail exactly it will do the trick if you let it. Over 2 weeks without a single urge for a coffin nail. Next step is to lower the nicotine until then I cannot truly be free of my addiction. It's not the tobacco it's the nicotine that has us by the short and curlies.
 
1st 24 hours of vaping...5 analogs from a 2+pack a day habit of 20 years. Started by doing a morning ritual of grabbing an analog, 3-4 drags with coffee and morning glory (poop!).
I want this thing running all day but only using it when the urge hits, most of the time the toothpick with cinnamon is helping the hand to mouth. Flushed my nose a few times with saline, brushed my teeth like 8 times today, cleaned the house a bit and lit some super hit.

Just had my ecig break through with new kit, atty break in and cartridge flavor. I thought it was just me and possibly the cart being refilled....nope popped on a new cart and same marlb taste kinda like a marlb light good bye analogs in less than 24 hours. Man this is great getting all sorts of packages in the mail this next week, ordered a BUNCH of differant juices I feel like a kid in a candy shop trying everything.

Oh NO, well you know, one REALLY bad thing about this e-cig is that you dont have all too many of them.. so i was out getting wasted on saturday to celebrate my first analog free month, and gathered i'd take the e-cig with me, since i still feel a strong urge for smoking when not in a sober condition.. So all was fine and i smoked on it through the night, they didn't really complain or anything in the nightclub.. Anyhows, i woke up in the morning only to find that my e-cig was nowhere to be found 8-o yes, i lost it, and i have no clue what happend during the last 2 hours of the night.. So dont even know where to begin looking, so i will just have to order myself a new one, since i got ****loads of liquid which i dont want to go to waste, even though i would probably be just fine without vaping..:oops:
