For you smokers trying to make the switch from cigarettes to vapor... I've been a pack a day smoker for 30 years and learned about ecigs from a co-worker.
I started out with a SmokeTip starter kit and immediately cut my cigarette usage in half.
In my quest to learn more, I discovered ECF and I must give a huge thank you to all of you that post. Your knowledge and experience has been a big help and a money saver.
Reading posts from others like me in the midst of getting off cigarettes has been inspiring.
I'm down to just a few real cigarettes a day and still heading in the right direction.
Here's the combination that is working for me.
KR808D manual batteries from My Vapor Store, CE carts from Madvapes and PureCig tobacco Pre-Mixed Specialty juice from Freedom Smoke USA.
I even splurged and bought a PCC. I'm sure there are other combination's out there that are just as good or maybe better, but this is working well for me.
Lots of vapor and it tastes very close to the flavor of a real full flavor cigarette. I'm still trying different juices and experimenting with nicotine strengths...
I suspect I'll also try other PV's too as time goes on, that's half the fun. For now this combination is working and even with buying the stuff I've bought I've still spent a heck of a lot less money than I used to on cigarettes. I thought I'd post this in the hopes it will help out someone else and again to thank you all that take the time to post here.

Congrats on cutting way down. I did the same and finally got sick of what cigarettes were doing to me so I suffered through and quit them completely. I also enjoy snus too and that has really helped me during those rough times when the e-cig just wasn't enough.

If you can take the plunge and just stop smoking you'll see relief within a week or so as you begin making the change. The way I looked at it was that I was switching brands of cigarettes. As I became accustomed to the "brand" change it became easier and easier. Now, if I have a craving for a real cigarette, it only lasts for about a minute then passes. Not smoking real cigarettes was the first step in my quest to replace them with e-cigs and it's working!

I wish you the very best and welcome!

Carlito: I have a co-worker that tells me the same, that the cigarette habit is 90% mind game like a sort of OCD type ritual that has to be beat. He told he kept telling himself that cigarettes just don't exist anymore and that he stills smokes, only his cigarettes now come packaged in cartomizer form. Thank you all for the encouragement and advice. I'm going to try going today with no analogs. The switching brands idea might work for me, we've all been there at some point. I'll post again when I've been cigarette free for a few days. Thanks!
