Started with Green Smoke and used that for about a week before I started reading on this forum and learned there were lots of better things. Then I got a Halo G6 with mini tanks that I still use to taste new juices--I think I used it for about 3 wk. Then I got an itaste vv3, which I still use every day, but I was gifted with a Provari and that's my main vape now. I am thinking of buy a few vv/vw clones at fasttech, just to have them around in case I find myself without anything to use for whatever reason. They are pretty inexpensive, so not a major investment and will make me feel safe.

I started with a disposable blu, and liked the menthol so much that I went and purchased the blu starter kit, which was much, MUCH worse. Then I went and got an Ego-V V2 from Mega and a cartomizer tank, and went to Johnson creek for my ejuice.

Until last week, I purchased nothing new. Last week, I ordered the 1300mah Ego-V V3. I'm pretty sure it is the best ego on the Market.

I'll move to mechanical some day, but the Ego-V has a lifetime warranty from Apollo, so if the battery dies or I drop it, I can just send it back to them, and they'll mail me out a new one. That was worth the premium, to me.

I started smoking when I was 12 also. I am now 30 and I've finally quit for good, thanks to ecigs. I can breathe so much better! Of course, me being a female, I probably wouldn't play football (lol), but I love being able to walk up a flight of stairs and not get that out of breath anymore!

Started with cig-a-like, mostly to annoy people at no-smoking places (prankster? guilty ;) ). I found it helps me reduce smoking, but adding 2 drops every 10 puffs was annoying, so I bought pen-style with ce4-style clearomizer. I've recently bought EVOD set (1100 mAh), which is amazing for chilling and vaping, however... I spend most of my day in front of computer, both hands on keyboard and I cannot balance the huge EVOD in my hand (as I used to do with analogs).

The cig-a-like is still mostly live and well, however due to my clumsiness, it looks quite bad. I still use it for pranks, but nowadays people know what e-cig is so it doesn't work as well as it used to in that department.

Started with an NJOY disposable. 8-o:nah: Hated - and I mean HATED - them with a passion. I even became jaded about the whole vaping experience because I thought that was it.

Then I took the plunge and spent waaaay too much on an eGo-C Twist kit. Came with two batteries, two clearomizers, charger, case, etc. But I also bought a couple of juices with it, one of which I really liked. That's what converted me. Started experimenting with different flavors, which led to experimentation with different attys, mods, coils, etc., and now I'm hopelessly hooked! But I'm not complaining, as I've finally broken free from the grasp of tobacco. Makes the initial investment on an overpriced eGo kit seem negligible.

I started with this horrid piece of crap....



It so totally sucked! It got juice in my mouth, (yuck, ptui!) and you could only vape on it for two hours before you had to charge it for three hours. It's called the Smart E-cig, confirming that any product labeled "smart" is only smart for the one selling it.

Two months later I had this:



Now I make my own juice in bulk, and need nothing at all from the B&M's.... I'm a happy vaper :D

I was a smoker for 21 years. I typically smoked 12-15 analogs per day.

1st attempt at vaping: Blu pack with the charger pack. Failed after 2 weeks. Went back to analogs, though I was still smoking a few analogs a day while I was using the Blu.

1 year later, 2nd attempt: VMOD XL. I was still trying the 1/2 vaping, 1/2 smoking analog thing to cut down and eventually quit analogs. Lasted 3 weeks. Failed. My problem was probably the crappy batteries that the VMOD used and running out of juice (battery juice that is) so it didn't work out.

Latest attempt: A friend gave me his old starter set. A couple Vision Vivi Nova's and a couple eGo batteries, plus a couple bottles of delicious juice. Instead of the cut down method, I threw away my pack as soon as I saw the vivi Nova's fire up and never looked back. Now, almost 2 months later, I haven't touched an analog and upgraded my set to a SVD VV/VW, Chi You clone mech mod, a PT2 & 3, authentic kayfun lite plus, and an Omega clone RDA. Also have plenty of different tasty juices to keep it going.
