Ah-Choo! (good health)

Thank you, my dear one. Think your super dooper TI calc can figure out how much I saved? Mine's not working.

JUMA, I was one that dual used. The first 10 days were physically difficult, and emotionally too, yep yep, it was. I LOVED smoking and didn't want to let go of my "best friend". So I vaped and smoked for 10 days. I remember thinking that that was fine because this stupid little gimmicky gadget I had was just a toy anyway, and I didn't even believe that the bottle of e-liquid really had any nicotine in it. :facepalm:

(What a DUMAS I was. I got so nic sick, but still denied it to myself.) On the last nite of smoking (a 1/2 cig at 2:15am), I was fine. BUT, morning came, and I fully realized I had smoked my last cigarette. :shock:

I cried. And I cried. And I cried for about 24 hours. When the tears finally subsided and I could see klearly enuf to get online, I joined ECF.



Now, my tears are only tears of joy. :) :) :)

Congrats on your 7th vaping anniversary, KatDarling!

My 7th was last April. My quit routine was way too easy (lucky, I guess). I smoked and vaped for a year, but I quickly dropped from 2PAD to about 6 a day after the first week or two of vaping. I finally realized that smoking at all was pointless since my Ego and Joye 510 were more fun.

My real quit point was my one year anniversary of vaping in April 2011 when I decided to order a Provari V2 as a reward for not smoking. My deal with myself was that I could never smoke again once the Provari arrived in the mail. So far, so good!

I think some people were talking about MTL friendly RDA's.
What do you think of this thing? I like the AF hole size variety and from looking at that video (looking since I don't speak Italian) you should be able to get a driptip in there (I feel like there needs to be ~1inch between my face and the coil.).

Item: No Fear Unlimited Style 14mm Rebuildable Dripping Atomizer w/ Bottom Feeding Pin - Silver

Video of authentic which is high end apparently:

Got one and yes, they are expensive. Good MTL but not what I was looking for. Sometimes, when trying one of these things with multiple air holes, I feel like Goldilocks. Too much air, not enough air.....drilling it out is out of the question (for me at least) not on a 100 euro atty. It is a well made atty and it's new owner loves it.

Kat, congratulations on getting to 2500 days!
You inspired me to check. I just hit 1400 myself. Not such an impressive or round number.

The first hour was fairly easy. I had 6 week of dual use to that point. That first evening and the next couple. I am really surprised I didn't break to much or kill anybody.

congrats on the big 5 year vaperversary Kat

my 5 year vaperversary is in 6 months

Seven years and five months here:)

Congrats to all:rickroll:

If I'd have stuck with it with my Joyetech 510s, I'd be coming up for 6 years in January but I'm afraid to say they didn't quite do it for me. Still, I'm happy with 4 years coming up in 19 days time :)
4 years is definitely something to be proud of .You're all an inspiration to me! I NEVER ever would've thought I'd go past a month, let alone over a year without a cig. Thanks in great part to this very thread, I can say with total certainty that I'll NEVER pick up another stinky cancer stick again! Yay for all of us!

Kat, congratulations! I've never understood why it's difficult for folks to go from smoking to vaping. It took me all of 24 hours, and I was a hardcore smoker who had tried everything! It did take some time to find the right gear and juice, but the actual switch was nothing.
My switch was just like yours and I'm so glad it was!

I used to actually HOPE I'd get bronchitis so I could stop or cut down on the cigs! Of course, even if I got sick and went as long as a day without smoking, once I felt better, I'd always start again.
Funny, the last few days I've felt that tickle in the back of my throat which usually indicates I'm getting sick. But it hasn't progressed! I like to think my immune system and lungs are healthier and keeping me from getting a full-blown cold! Vaping rocks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If I tell you that I have 5 of them, will that mean anything? Very nice, compact rda. Could be a bit of a PITA since the deck is 14 mm or so but I manage two coils in it. I also have 3 or 4 of the Origen Tiny, the 1 ml tank version of it. That one is a single coil only but a great little rta, especially with NETs.

I'm trying to formulate what I would like in an RDA. I have an Igo-L and it is hard for me to understand why I don't like it. The smoke it makes is so harsh and dense and hot; it makes me cough
What coil do you have in it? Are you using it in power mode or TC? Squonk or dripper?
