Okay, so the other day I noticed I still had a half pack of cigs that had been sitting in my closet since I switched to PVs and just to see how it compares I grabbed one and walked outside and sparked up. It was absolutely disgusting, I felt sick I just wanted to vomit, and I smoked 2 packs a day for years. My question to all of you is how do you feel when you light up a cig compared to vaping?

To answer your question, I'm happy and relieved to say, "No idea at all!" Since my first vape (eGo and crappy cartridge), I've had no desire whatsoever to try a cig.

So Iffy now that you've been using PVs for a while I assume you've changed from your eGo, what's your favorite PV setup now?

Currently have the following in my daily rotation:

Buzz Pro 1 - DCT with DIY LA Peach
Buzz Pro 2 - DCT with DIY TPA Pear
Buzz Pro 3 - Vision Stardust with DIY VZ Blueberry
Apollo SS mini-VTube - Vision Stardust with DIY Iffy's Capella's GAP (Green Apple Pie)
VaporLuxe - Vision Stardust with DIY/premade combo VZ Cherry/FSUSA Vanilla Bourbon
??? 14500 tube - Vision Stardust with DIY Capella's Strawberry & Cream

The last PV is the one I use to sample my test flavs using a 306 bridgeless atty. If a flav is good 3.7V, then it's GTG!

Important note: When going out fishing/boating, I STILL use a 3.7V eGo batt and eMDCCs; killa fiddle-free satisfying vape! Just got a couple of eGo Twists and have yet to 'go dere'.

I've been vaping for about 3 weeks using a two piece. I'm really quite happy with them actually yet everyday I end up smoking about 1 pack reg cig (used to smoke upwards of 3 packs per day). It's like somethings missing and I don't know what. They actually taste pretty bad after vaping. How can I move to the next step where I don't smoke regular cigs at all?.

that's tough mommywoman, but it does happen sometimes, usually the issue is that the PV doesn't have a satisfying feel or the liquid isn't strong enough. I know when I started with a joye 510 the draw was to stiff and the vapor was light. I switched to a single coil tank on an eGo and the smooth draw and huge vapor satisfied my senses and I haven't craved a cig since. What models are you using? and whats your nicotine level?

I am currently vaping a 2 piece, Green Smoke. I use the menthol at 2.4 which is the strongest they have. I hate to invest any more money, since my husband spent a bunch on this system. As I stated, I do like them, and I did wonder if maybe they weren't strong enough but the only thing I feel I could do at this point is to find a stronger menthol cartimizer with the same threads my current batteries have. I don't know enough to know where to start. Any advice?

I've been vaping for 3 days now,,,,,,,,yesterday, DH and I went to Disney World,,,,,,,I vaped in the car a couple times for the 40 minutes that we drove there,,,,,,,,,and then she died (sigh--stupid Njoy),,,,,so while in the park, I did smoke one analog that I had in my purse,,,,,,,,it was AWFUL. I think I smoked about half of it and then put it out,,,,,,,,,won't try that again.

THURSDAY I am ordering 2 new kits (one for DD and one for me),,,,,,,the Volt with the extra long batteries. I can not WAIT,,,,,,,

I am wondering what the HECK I am going to do if there's a hurricane and we lose power for a week,,,,,,,,car charger, here I come LOL!

well mommywoman,

I would try a different flavor, I smoked regular cigs but regular flavor juice doesn't do it for me. I use tastier flavors like strawberry and others. Just because you like your cigs like that doesn't mean its best for your vaping. A lot of menthol smokers enjoy fruity flavors. Maybe try that and see how you feel.
