Well Hello There!

[CrazyChef]

Hey!

How are you?

My Story? Okay, I’m glad you asked!

I’ve been needing to quit smoking for a while now, as I had a pretty bad heart attack a couple years ago. Can’t quit. Like it too damn much.

So… I tried the V2 ecigs. They’re crap. So, I try Copenhagen. Like it, but it grosses too many people out. Not that I care, but I work in sales, so I can’t really dip at work. So back to the stinkies I go…

Okay, can’t smoke – heart attack, remember? So I try the Blu starter kit for $35.00. Okay, well it’s okay, I guess. But it still sucks. Eventually go back to the stinkies.

Got the V2 again, after reading some decent reviews. Liars. Anyway, stick to it for a couple of months, with a stinkie here and there just ‘cuz I like ’em. So, $30+/week is gettin’ kinda ‘spensive for me (low paying crappy sales job). My sister’s BF uses a “custom” vape setup, so I check it out. $50 for the basic setup, and about $20/month for the juice. WHAT??? I’m paying $120+/month for crap, and the “good stuff” is cheaper???

SO… Today I go out and buy the ARO Winder kit from MadVapes with 50ml of wintergreen 24mg juice for $70…

Holy Crap! What a HUGE difference!!! So, now I’m looking to maybe get a better/bigger tank, and upgrading my setup a bit every week or 2.

And I really don’t crave the stinkies at all with this new setup!

Anyways, I’m glad to be here amongst you fine Vapers!

Hello and welcome to the forum Vaping Dude. Glad to have you here!

Congratulations Dude. After trying several 510 cartos over the years, some of the earlier Protanks, etc, the Pyrex Aro II finally got me off the stinkies and didn't leak all over my pocket, so I know the feeling of finding a decent tank that works tolerably. I look forward to seeing you around!

Hello and Welcome Vaping Dude

Welcome to ECF, Vaping Dude! Congrats on your new journey into vaping.

Welcome my friend. Of course vaping is much healthier than smoking. Only reason that your lungs will be clean and you will get more breath is enough for choosing e-cigs. But (doctors should know better of course) you should be very careful for your nicotine level. Apart from tarr, the most dangerous ingredient for heart is nicotine because it narrows veins. (or whatever the med's clause for it) So go ahead but beware the nic. intake.

Congratulations and welcome. I'm glad you found us. When/if you're ready to try something new, ask here first.

It will save you a lot of money and aggravation!

Is 24 mg/ml working for you? It's a bit high... I can't vape 24 at all. See if you can lower your nicotine level a bit and still stay smoke-free.

Good luck!
