Still better than analogs!!!

Wow, there must be as batch if gremlins out there lately with all this talk of going back to analogs. Sure these things are quirky but after 4 months I am about to lay these down (I plan to within the month) with no thought of going back to those evil stinky organics. I have to agree it has had it's share of troubles for me but I feel so much better and know I can lay these down right now. After 35+ years of smoking that's remarkable and nothing else has come close to that. Not patches or gum or lozenges, and if I stay with these for a while longer, no biggie! It is not as bulletproof as whipping out a Marlboro and firing it up but the toll on your body is so much less. Gotta be worth it folks! :cool:

Amen! I agree. This is new technology and for me the benefits far outweigh the setbacks. I'm sure in the future someone will create the perfect e-cig but until then I'm happy with what we've got. It's been said many times that these devices are far from perfect and they aren't meant to last forever. If you keep that in mind and order plenty of liquid and backups you won't have the panicked moments of being completely out.

I understand how frustrating it is to have several things break at once. I felt like crying when my good atomizers died and I was left with the one that was barely putting out any vapor. I learned my lesson though and will make sure and have more in the future.

We're dealing with nicotine addiction here, and we've got to remember that this isn't as easy as going to the store and buying a pack of cigs. It takes a bit more patience and practice, but for me being smoke free is well worth it!

I agree, the technology is not perfect but it worth it, my problem is with shipments, I can't do large orders because it can be seized, and I can't make a lot of small orders because the shipping costs are more expensive than the gear, $30 for the fastest shipping (1 week to arrive) on 1 bottle of 30ml that costs $20 for example, atomizers are cheap, batteries too, but the shipment is not always cheap or I need to wait 2 to 3 weeks to get the shipment and only if the post office wants to deliver it to me (or if I pay them to do so), that is my main problem, it is not a one-time shipping, I need to make a lot of orders or risk on a big order that calls more the attention at customs, if I could buy $10 atomizers plus $6 shipping cost and wait just 5 days, I surely would vape, but right now I can't afford the shipping costs.

So if you can just get your gear and liquid fast and cheap keep vaping even if the fail rate is high, it worth it.

Me too! Amazing, isn't it? For the first time in my life I'm tobacco free... coming up on three months with no difficulties, cravings, crazy war dances. Perhaps I'm lucky, but I've had very few technical problems with the hardware.
