Wanted to say hi......

Hi........

My story is like others but with a twist. I owned a MYO business and ended up likeing my product soooo much that I slipped into smoking, eventually tipping the scales at about a pack a day. Well I quit with the help of having gal bladder sugary and thought I was done. Guess what? Earlier this year I went back to smoking and trying to make the right choice, after hitting the almost a pack a day number, that I would try vaping. Well I got a cheap battery and carto tank and tried. It failed, so I kept smoking. Enter my buddy who works for a shop here in Vegas who had just gotten into the vap gear. He got me squared away with a better battery and tank. So I started vaping again.

Well I kept trying to shake the analogues and finally chose to have that last smoke about a month ago. I got some better ejuice, and it helped. Got a mech mod and a svd with a protank2 and Iclear 30s. Now I am vaping and dont miss the analogues. In fact they smell of them is revolting.

Next step is to step off the Nic, at 12 right now, and get to 0 and vape for the hobby side of it.

I'm in the same boat man. The smell of cigs makes me gag, and I've only been vaping for about a month now. I did try one the other day and almost puked. Hang in there bro.

I second that!!

All I can say, is I am so much happier to give my money to e-cig vendors than to big tobacco.

I've been doing MYO for several years. It really sucks, because I can't say that my vaping expenditures are justified by the loss of my tobacco expenditures! (On the other hand, did convert a couple of family members over to MYO just before getting back into vaping, so perhaps I can claim that?)

Also grew my own, but never got the curing part to work worth a damn. Maybe next on my plate is a grow-and-extract project? (A helpful hedge against the last aspect of possible FDAevil.....) Would be interesting if ECF wound up with a tobacco-growing forum!!!

Edit: "Interesting" in the sense of "May you live in interesting times", which is actually a curse.

You're down to 12 already... you've won the battle.. congrats to you... what a heck of a battle you went thru and won.

Sure looking forward to more of your postings to see you helping others get away from those old cancer sticks.
I find a great enjoyment and pleasure in 0 eliquids and sharing that no nicotine can be just as good as 36mg...

For me... it is a MUST... it's the soft AROMA I'm able to sense as a mild liquid as it enters and on ex-haling.
Though just like others... I do not believe in long drawn out drags and filling my lungs up just so I can bust
forth with enough VAPOR to fill the better part of a room. I can turn on almost any YOUTUBE video and see
some one drawing in 5-10 seconds of vapor and blowing bellows of thick clouds of vapor all over the place.

Me, I hit the heat button for maybe a second or two and let off... take in a little air ... do it again... and that's about it.
And... low and behold... when I'm ready to exhale... out comes quite a large amount of vapor... very comfortably.
And... needless to say... I get to really enjoy my e-juices aroma... each vision 1300mah batteries last well over 30 hours..

hmm... sorry about all the blather... gulp!
Maybe I'm just different... we all have our ways... and I'm just glad I'm here and learning.
