This really does work... One week now.

Hi,

Posted a few weeks back for advice on what vape to buy since i decided to quit smoking "on a whim". I was a hardcore, 1 and a half a day smoker for 20 years.

Thanks to the help here, i decided on and received an Elite 808. Last Wed. was my last analogue.

WOW. Not one Smoke in a week. Much better, and i dare to say, easier than i thought. This is some device and technology, i have tried other methods (Commit lozenge, cold turkey) and they dont compare. Whenever i get my hourly crave for a smoke, i vape a few puffs and i am good to go.

I feel about the same, nothing drastic, i do notice my sense of smell is coming back. If anything, i feel much better mentally about myself, that i dont smoke those nasty things anymore.

My wife, who smokes about a half pack or less a day, now uses my backup vaper - she likes it. We both agree its not exactly like a smoke, its more like a lighter cleaner version!

I have alot of questions, i will post them elsewhere. To anyone thinking about quitting, this is the way to go.

Grats!!! I agree. I smoked the same amount as you but for even longer and ecigs exceeded my expectations. Enjoy really tasting and smelling food again!

It took me a few months to quit analogs completely. I still want one now and then, but I just chain vape and it goes away. Great job so far and keep up the good work.

Congrats on qutting smoking! You'll find once you get a better device you'll love vaping and will never want to go back smoking analogs. Stay with it and keep up the good work and welcome to ECF!

Congrats!

When I first started vaping (beginning of August) I was telling my friends "Yeah, it's only about 75% as satisfying as a real cigarette. I still want a real one if I'm stressed / in the morning / if I'm drinking, etc etc"

But I kept at it, tried some more juices, found one i really loved. About a week or so ago, I was finishing up my last pack of analogs, and I was thinking "Man, I'd rather vape the juice I have at home. These things don't taste so good any more."

Hopefully the more you vape, your opinion/taste will shift like mine did. It sure did help me quit the analogs.

Awesome, good job. I had some major false starts and spent too much money. Now that I'm getting the hang of it, I really love vaping and trying new things. It's nice to know I can vape however much I want without killing myself. I'm also getting a bit addicted to my new toys and have to resist the urge to go buy stuff.

Happy vaping.

Awesome, how do you like the elite? Post pics of your set-up.

When i get home i will snap some photos and post them of the elite.

The elite 808 - I like it alot. One of my concerns in advance was finding something that can be near to a cig, since i was replacing them and although this is slightly larger, it comes close enough, it feels right. It vapes quick upon press, and i get nice a nice hit. I am going to try a few different models, so that i can have some comparison points. But in a week, no issues what so ever.

Yep, cigarettes taste nasty after vaping and finding some juices you like.

Yay congrats!! Give it about a month or so and you will find even the smell of cigs revolting! It's a nice change
