Two weeks ago, I had never even heard of vaping or e-cigarettes. I'm a 41 year old, single dad with three six year old kids. We live on a cattle ranch in the middle of nowhere. Once upon a time, I was an electrical engineer with a major telecom, but I got tired of the corporate world and decided I preferred dealing with cattle instead. I enjoy an occasional cigar on the porch after the kids go to bed, but I've never touched a cigarette in my life.
Anyway, I was wandering around YouTube one night and somehow stumbled across a video by Pbusardo. Then I watched about a dozen more of his vids. Shortly afterward, I discovered this forum. I decided the gadgets looked cool and ordered a VV3 and MVP 2.0, along with a few different flavors from Mt. Baker. Seemed like a cheap and easy way to see if I enjoyed vaping. I got the devices Thursday afternoon. Love the MVP and iClear30 experience, but the VV is too small for my hands. It feels like I'm holding a soda straw. Seems to work great, though.
This morning, I found out there was a vapor shop about 40 miles from the house, so I went there and ended up with a Kayfun clone along with a dozen new flavors. Pulled out my old test kits and built a coil in about 5 minutes. Really enjoyed "playing with electricity" again and the results are fantastic. Plus, I can use them indoors without the lingering odor of tobacco on clothes/furniture.
I don't even care about the nicotine. I've ordered most of my juices without it. I just like the flavors and the "ritual." Instead of absently sipping a Coke or bottle of water while watching TV at night, I just puff away without blandness of water or the sugar or calories of a soda. I'm 6'11", 260lbs...I don't need to add any more mass to this frame! Although I have found that the "Vanilla Ice Cream" juice from Mt. Baker really goes well with a glass of Zaya rum.
So within 14 days, I went from not knowing this hobby existed to owning (or waiting for):
Four mods:
MVP (Really like it)
VV (Works just as well as the MVP, but too small for me)
Nemesis (Appeals to my engineering side)
Provari (Seems to be the device of choice for many)
And a plethora of tanks/clearo/carto:
iClear 30
iClear 16 (x 5)
hCigar Kayfun clone
IBTanked (x2)
Protank Mini
Nautilus
And a truckload of liquids from all over. I'm not saving any money, but I'm having fun. Anyway, if anyone is still reading this novel, thanks to all the members here to share their knowledge and experience. I really helps newbies like me.
