What am I getting into....

[Corwynnde]

I quit smoking cigarettes 6 years ago but I miss it, and I'm finding myself hanging out with people who smoke more lately. I have no plans to start smoking again but I do miss it. Some of the people use e-cigs and I've been pondering one for a while.

I'm pretty clueless and trying to make heads or tails of anything is making my head spin. I'm planning on heading down to the nicstation at the mall (lloyd center in Portland) to see what they have(I'd like something by next weekend). Right now I'm kinda eyeing the kanger evod and some nic-free liquid but I don't know if I'll find it locally.

Is it bad for them if they're not used every day? I likely will only use it when I'm out socializing.

If you do get one get the zero nicotine juice No need to get hooked again

id say its fine, but id shake up the tank good each time u want to use it cause e liquid sitting in the tank might need to be mixed up. just like shaking the bottle before u fill the tank because it separates a bit from sitting.

I second that!

 

[Corwynnde]

Thanks! Definitely planning on the nicotine free stuff, I don't ever want to be hooked again.

If what you're getting into is not smoking, then it's all good!

 

[Mark Anthony]

I agree... Go with the zero nic juice.

Here's a Vendor located in Portland. Good cuz you can not only check out the available Kits but also sample the juices before buying:
Escape Vapor Lounge
2121 NE 82nd Avenue
Suite 5 (upstairs)
Portland, Oregon
Hours: 11am - 8pm everyday
Don't really promote vaping for non smokers BUT in this case if you're having urges vaping is a much better alternative.
Best of Luck.

Nah, its not bad for them that I know of. I have several tanks loaded and ready to go. Does anyone else know if the Evods have problems leaving sitting for a week or two ?

I'm pondering going to Escape, but I'll have two toddlers in tow today, so not sure about taking them with me there. I love the idea of being able to try flavors though.

It's prolly one of the easiest ways to start. Prices may be a little higher but selecting the right juice can sometimes be very frustrating and expensive. Also kinda neat when we can sit down comfortably among "our own" without judgement IMO.

That shouldn't be a problem. The batteries themselves might need a "topping off" on the charger if not used for a week or two. Although I recently found an old X2 battery and clearomizer (Smokeless Image's eGo clone) that had not been used in over a year and it was still able to fire the clearomizer.

 

[Corwynnde]

Welp I took the plunge. Ended up with an x6 starter kit and 2 bottles of juice... I would have gotten more but I could have seen it getting spendy quickly. I may go back and pick up another tank though, and try a couple other flavors

Corwyn, that's awesome that you bought the vape gear instead of a pack of analogs!! I would never presume to tell someone else whether or not the should or shouldn't smoke cigarettes because we're all sick of being told how it's killin' us, blah blah. As a smoker and the husband of a hardcore smoker that I finally got to quit only because of the satiation vaping gives... allow me to give you a celebratory, submariner style HOOYAH!!

Congrats!

I would go to where you can taste and get some understanding. No nic is the way to go don't get tempted and start again. Good luck on your journey.
