Thank You Rick and Vapor Alley

[YoureFired]

Hi guys.

I've been about a pack and a half a day smoker (analogs as they're called here) for over twenty years.

I did quite a bit of Youtube viewing and checking this forum for anything and everything ecigarette related over the last few weeks. My fave from the beginning was something called Logic. But it wasn't rechargeable and one Logic ecig only lasted me less than a day. At a cost of $11 each, this wasn't going to be economically feasible for me.

So, I ordered some from their website, which was a better deal.. but still, they didn't last very long. And, they sent me menthols on my first order when I ordered regular. So, that left a bad taste in my mouth.. pun intended.

Anyway, after seeing Rick's Youtube video (sorry, I forgot his user name here), I thought I'd try the eGo W. I live in the Northeast and it only took about two days to arrive, which was great. I liked it, so I ordered a few more flavors, and upped the strengths to 24mg. The full flavor is my fave, and I think I'll stick to that from now on.

The eGo W is easy to operate and it's easy to fill the liquids. (I feel like some kind of evil scientist/chemist with these little bottles and syringe.) It doesn't leak and the vapor output is decent. I like the style, size, and color, etc., and it's a well-built little unit.

EGo W and Vapor Alley Rocks! I look forward to ordering more goodies from them.

vape on.

Welcome to the forum! Sounds like your off to a great start.

Thank you, Artt.

I'm down to like 5 analogs per day now, thanks to this fun new hobby-like vaping experience.

Let me make a prediction. Once you've given up the analogs for good, you'll lose that taste for "full flavor". You'll try something else, maybe coffee, or fruit, or bacon. Then you'll wonder why you ever liked the taste of tobacco in the first place. Vapor Alley has some good deals. I think they're the new little guy on the block, so they're trying harder. Now that you have a half-decent e-cig, you'll be off those analogs in no time.

Sailorman, you're probably right. I'm a big coffee fiend and member of a coffee forum. So, I can see that.

Also, I failed to mention that I really like the eGo W's clearomizer. The cover (or casing) for it has windows to see the level of liquid in it.. which makes it easy to check the level before I head off to work.

Glad you're liking it. Wouldn't be my first recommendation, but everything works for somebody. The main thing is getting off those last analogs. Maybe get some coffee and bacon juice and vape first thing in the morning instead of that analog you probably have. Get something fairly high in nicotine, say 18 or 24mg. That's how I stopped cold, literally overnight, and I smoked 3 packs a day for almost 40 years. Just vape as much as you can stand. Get up in the morning and do it again. Before you know it, you'll realize you haven't lit up an analog all day. Don't leave yourself time to smoke. You can't smoke if you're vaping.

BTW, what coffee forum. I belong to a couple of them for green coffee beans, but I don't visit too often. I need a new chamber for my roaster.

I agree, the main thing being getting off the stinky cigs. I'm tired of the ashes and dirty ash trays and even my girlfriends always asking me to go outside to smoke. I almost want to quit cigs out of spite and not just because of the negative health consequences.

Yes, coffee and bacon.. These are some of my favorite things.

I joined Coffeeforums.com about five years ago. I became a moderator for awhile there, and even met some members and did business with them in real life, but I haven't been posting there much over the last year or two. It's a very informative forum and the core members are a great bunch. I am also in the coffee industry, to an extent, so they helped me a lot.

My last cigarette was yesterday at 2pm. 31 hours ago and counting..

Thank you, Sailorman, for your words of encouragement.

Great job on the switch!!! It takes will power even with ecigs, but they are the way to go IMO. Good Luck!!
