Still smoking analogs

[FluffaPuff]

I've been wondering if anyone besides me is vaping but still smoking analogs. I have been using an njoy mini for about 4 weeks now, but I'm still smoking analogs - although less than I was before. In the past couple of weeks I have been reading through a lot of posts and it seems that almost everyone has completely quit analogs. I'm wondering if I should switch to another type of e-cig, maybe a 510? I do thoroughly enjoy vaping but find I still have to have an analog a few times a day. Am I alone in this?

it was the hit of the 510 that got me...
I had a mini cig, and liked it, but it didn't "deliver"...

I think my Mom may be happier with the mini-cig, as she smokes ultra light smokes, and I super strong but I'll see after I send her her package lol...

I think a heavy smoker needs a stronger e-smoke to get the ball rolling

cheers and good luck!

It took me almost a month to quit analogs while vaping and I have a 901. You might consider getting a different model, but only if you aren't happy with the one you have. Maybe you should try a slightly higher nicotine level to see if it curbs your craving for analogs. If it doesn't then go back to the nic level you were at before so you don't over do it. I hope everything works out for you!

Thanks for the input. I'm now on the hunt for the best deal on a 510!

I love vaping but I still smoke analogs too. I haven't really tried to quit but enjoy replacing about 1/2 what I used to smoke with my e-cig now. I don't feel bad or strange about doing both either.

It may not be your cigarette, but your nicotine strength. I chain-smoked lights and ordered medium and low cartridges.

I needed high nic - 16 - because of chain smoking and then to work my way down. And once I switched nicotine strength, I stopped wanting analogs.

Just my opinion and your mileage may vary!

Not alone. Up until we finished our very last ones yesterday (stupid clove ban), my wife and I were both smoking analogs and vaping.

If the device *almost* works for you, I'd recommend at least considering a change in juice. I had to increase the nicotine level a bit (18ish mg instead of 16), and am still wanting one, but mixing menthol with vanilla seems to help quite a bit.

It's not a clove, but it works.

I Got My 510 3 weeks ago . And smoked my Last analog while it was charging and have not had one since

I have had a pack of analogs Laying on my desk and have not even been tempted to light one up and I was not going into this trying to quit I just wanted to be able to smoke at work . Thought I would Puff on the 510 until I just wanted a Cig and Lucky that time never came , Only bad thing about it is I'm getting more work done now B/c I'm not popping out for a smoke break every hour

Pack and Half a day Smoker for close to 10 years . 510 with 24MG Fluid has taken care of all the urges

Nope, you are not alone. I still smoke some cigs but very few. I have one in the morning with coffee which I have no intention of stopping, then the rest of the day, I vape. However, if I have alcohol, I smoke cigs. I have a 510, a laser mod and a VP1, so it's not really about the model itself. It is more about what you want out of vaping. If you are determined to quit smoking by vaping, you will. Remember, these are NOT smoking cessation products; they are smoking alternative products. I have been vaping since Jan. 09. At first I had 4-5 cigarettes a day, but now I am down to that one in the morning. You can really take it as far as you want.

Cignot your Midwest Electronic Cigarette store. $35 for the one without a box: two atomizers, two batteries, charger, and five cartridges.

I had the 510 and it got me off the analogs, but it was sooooo much work! Cleaning the atty etc... The taste was inconsistant and the only time I could get a throat hit is if I dripped on the atty or topped of the cart. I wasn't willing to get a big mod thing to carry around with me and make it work better. I just wanted something to pick up and go so I got VaporKing from Vapor4Life and WOW! My 510 is gathering dust and I am happily vaping away on my VK! If you want to see what people think about it, come see the forum here Vapor4Life - e-cigarette-forum.com • The place for electronic cigarette reviews, news and chat I am thrilled with my VaporKing and can't imagine ever going back to analogs! Good luck with whatever you end up getting! Anything that can keep you off the cigs is ok in my book!

I smoked analogs for the first week. The times that I seem to want/need them the most was first thing in the morning and after a meal.
But after the first week I am now analog free going on day 52. !!!!!

 

[doots]

I never picked up another analog after the day my first PV came. Guess im lucky. lol
I had the desire the first few days but knew I had to stop them.. Will power is what kept me from going back.

I took to this like a fish to water. Haven't had an analog since my first drag from an ecig and I was smoking almost 3 packs a day. I'm still amazed by this thing.

 

[david 1300c]

I'm still smoking analogs too, but then again I've only just gotten some e-cigs - Evo and the Joye 510c. I can tell already that I'll probably need to go higher than 24 on the Evo. But I like the automatic battery. The 510 gives me a better experience but not sure I like pressing the button. And getting used to the taste is going to take a while too...

Good luck!

I quit completely when I first got my 901. It was tough, but I wanted and needed to stop smoking, and the e-cig was the first NRT I've found that made it possible.

Four months later, I still occasionally have a clove (damn you, ban!!) or bum a cigarette if I'm out drinking beer, but that *need* for a cigarette is completely gone. I have one now if I feel like it, and try not to stress too much about it. I never thought I'd be able to do this, and I'm incredibly grateful to the creators of the PV technology for finally, finally allowing this kind of thing to happen.

Still smoking but I have cut way back seeing that a pack of cigarettes costs like $9 a pack! and feeling the harm that there doing to my body.

One thing that's important also is to be vaping high enough MG juice.
I went from 18mg that came with my first PV to 24 and 36 fast to keep the cravings down..

It took me a couple of months to get rid of the last 3 cigs a day that I felt I needed. One when I woke up, one after dinner and one before I went to bed. I keep a bottle of 36mg around for the times when I feel I need a cig, drip 2-3 drops on the atty and it really helps with the urge to smoke. Like the others said, you might need a different level of nicotine. A friend of mine that smoked less than me vapes 36mg most of the time. I smoked 2 ppd and 24mg vaped regularly gives me a huge headache. Everyone is different.
