So I did it!!!

[rmpetty]

So like I said in my post last night, my plan was to charge batteries overnight & start thismorning.
I got up & went directly out to the garage to have my first cigarette of the day (for me it was going to be the last) Got my coffee and it was back out to the garage to fill a couple of carts. While I was filling the carts I noticed that there was only one lonely cigarette left in the pack. Not wanting it to be alone I smoked it. At 10:00AM I SMOKED MY LAST CIGARETTE. At 11AM I took my very first puff from the Riva 510. (I remember reading somewhere to push the button for a second, then take a 3-4 second puff, well thats what I did, and all that somke came out in one giant cough) Second puff was a "push the button and inhale just like a real cig. I've got to tell you IT WAS GREAT!!! I will NEVER touch an analog for as long as I live. Right now I'm the happiest guy I know. Thank you EVERYONE. Bob.
Still have that urge to light the end of the Riva when I pick it up though

Congratulations!! Expect some triggers to make you want a cigarette, but just vape until that urge leaves.

YES! Started vaping this past Friday. Opened car window 1/2 inch this morning........realized I can stay warm now!

I still crack the window a touch. First out of habit and then I wondered if the vapor would leave a residue on the windshield.

Congrats. When you want an analog, just keep vaping as much as you want until the urge goes away. The exhaled vaper does leave a residue on the windshield.

Congrats and vape on!

I hear it does leave a residue

 

[Conard]

Nice to know about the residue, I had a hunch it may.
It's cold here in W. New York and cleaning windows in the winter can be a challenge

I still crack the window when I vape, just to give the vapor somewhere to go. I've only been vaping for 3 weeks tomorrow. When I first started, I had a PV that looked just like an analog. I gave it to my dad (a devoted pipe smoker) to try, and almost wrecked the car cause he pulled out his lighter and tried to light the end of the e-cig!

Awesome Bob!!....So glad you found ECF & vaping...the urge to light the end of you PV will go away after a while..LOL...Welcome!

 

[Turnkeys]

Congratulations RMPetty! Soon you'll start enjoying better lung function and other benefits. It gets better every day.
