First device... was a logic rechargeable kit from the gastation. After using them, I came across this site and learned I could refill them with vg from the store. Still smoking, I was refilling the carts and using the 5pk up until there was absolutely no flavor leftover in them. 8ish months later I came across halo and bought my first "open tank" system. 3 months after that, bought a mvp2 and evod/protank style tanks. From there it's a bit hazy on timing, but upgraded to an istick20 and eventualy the istick30 since the 20 had hella problems.
Prosmoke was my first. First puff I sucked what I thought was all the liquid into my mouth. Normal cigarette draw for me. Did nothing for me. A week after I bought the prosmoke, I gave up on it and bought some Smokeless image volts. I stuck with it and after a few months of dual use. I haven't had a smoke. Well if you include a cigar.
Avail Infuse (branded eGo) -> Cool Fire I -> SmokTech Zmax Mini -> Sigelei 100w w/ an Atlantis (finally "got it") -> RDAs -> Smok TFV4 and Xcube II

I was a two to three pack a day smoker and my mother actually gave me two kanger mini protank 2s, those helped me quit cigarettes the day I got them. Shortly after I ordered an Aerotank mini online. Upon arrival I opened the box and, to my surprise, there was a Nautilus mini inside, I ended up keeping the Nauty and liked it so much I ordered the CF battery for it and a Nautilus kit. Kept those for a bit and then purchased an original Lemo and a 50w istick. That started me on RTAs. My next purchase was a Billow v2 and now I'm sitting here with my Aromamizer and 100w istick. B)
I smoked a half PAD and then bought a Vapor Couture kit. Went back to smoking when I ran out of cartridges...then bought a rebranded itaste vv/vw 3 and it came with an iclear 16, and bought an evod. I actually quit with that, then bought an occasional upgrade and here I am. Now I'm using a 50w istick and a lemo 2.
Volt cig-sized starter kit from SmokelessImage, That was 3+ years ago. I framed my first sleek silver Volt with a black carto attached, and labeled it with my quit date (August 13th 2012). I will always have a soft spot in my heart for that thing.
I bought the v2 pro series thought it was a sick idea to have different cartridges for dry herb and wax. The e cig side of it was shocking. I was always on the phone to them thinking it wasn't working right, numerous replacements! I'd understand if it was a crappy e cig (which it is) but it cost £60!
my first ecig was from a flea market, long before the blu cig came out, even before the ego and CE4... it was a failed one week experiment that tasted horrible. I went to the blu cigs, then the blu rechargeable kit next. Then I threaded the blu cartos onto a tiny 350mah ego stick. Then it was the Ce4 on an ego, then the kanger evod, protank 1 and two... I finally got a decent vape with a carto tank.
Daily reliable vapes with the nautilus.
Daily great vapes with the Atlantis
Tasty vapes with the subtank
amazing vapes with the subtank mini and vertical coils
Now I am mostly on the ISUB G, love the way it vapes, ez rebuild of the coils too.

Well I started off trying one of those disposable cig a likes and thought it was useless, then I got a ego and pro tank set up and used it for a couple days and it didn't satisfy me. Then I found a friend of mine who had a mechanical mod and rda setup (don't remember the exact setup) and blowing clouds. I decided I would jump right into mech mods (stupid idea) and bought a maraxis mech mod and nimbus rda off eBay that came with trust fire batteries (didn't know they were crap at the time) and could never get mine to produce as much vapor . Long story short my friend truly taught me everything I need to know and now I have 5 mech mods 2 mech boxes and 2 temp control boxes and more rda'a and tanks to count. I even diy my juice.
Never try sub ohming on a mech mod with trust fire batteries like I did. I'm lucky it did not vent!!

My first was a cigalike from Vapor4Life. Back then, many e-cigs were very fussy, and folks were messing with tea bags, fluval, straws, etc. in order to get a decent vape. This video helped sway my decision - while I moved on long ago, I'll always be grateful to Vapor4Life for getting me off of cigarettes:
My first ever, back somewhere between 2004-06, was a RUYAN black cigalike piece of junk that I spent $70 on and ordered direct from China. It was pretty cool and SORTA did the job, at least got me to cut back on cigarettes substantially. I tried getting my dad on em and he tried it, and bought two cheap-o cigalike kits online, but we both lost interest after about a month. Then a few years later I bought a pair of older iTaste pen style e-cigs with the plastic tank and the glowing power button, which I again lost interest in. Then just last month my ol' man bought me a subox kit for my birthday (which I'm STILL waiting for, from touch of modern) but in the meantime I was at a wetvapes.com retail location, and I bugged the clerk if he had anything comparable to the Subox on the cheap, and he sold me an iJust2 kit, which completely blew my mind. Now, I still have and use that kit (because it friggin cranks) but I grabbed another Subox from a friend who couldn't handle vaping, and I use that topped with a brand spankin new Cthulhu V2 (OMG) and a Herakles I got second hand from a co worker for $10.
I'm diggin these new vapes, a straight month without cigs, and I was a pack-pack and 1/2 a day of full flavor 100s.

The one on the left, Cig 2.0. Circa 2005 or so. Did`nt work and I continued to smoke cigars until March 2014. That`s when I got the Evod. And now with 2015 almost done, I find it hard to set the BF down once its in my hand. I think its working now. :?)
New Vapers now have it so damn easy... grab a subox kit and decent juice and go... slight learning curve but that's it. I remember drilling out evods, dry burning protank two coils, attempting to rewick and recoil the nautilus... Now I can completely figure out, re coil and rewick most coils in under 5 minutes... But I really don't have to. I am not jealous of those new to the vape scene, just very proud that I hung in there through hundreds of dollars worth of very sub par vape gear and horrible juice to make it to the vape renaissance we live in now.
I started with a mark ten menthol I got a free coupon for the flavor was really good but the vapor lacked and the cartridge only lasted an hour or so. Later that week I bought a haus brand starter kit and was really good at first after a week the battery stopped working bc the pin was pushed to far in. Then upgraded to a tesla spider 1300 mah battery and a t3s tank way better than the haus I still have it and it works great. Since then iv upgradedto an istick 50w and evic vt with subtank mini's and I like the vapor flavor and clouds I can get. Imo tc is meh the ego one mega tank is crap compared to the subtank.
I'm pretty satisfied with the 26 gauge twisted 7 wrap micro coil in the rba comes to .49 ohms vaping great at 30 watts
I'm thinking about getting a dripper or the fountain v2 squonking rda tank

Started with blu cherry disposable, after going through a few I bought a kanger evod starter kit with a t3 tank. I've collected at least ten of those in different colors. Next I got a vision spinner 2 with an iclear 16 tank. Then I bought an aspire cf sub Battery with an atlantis 2 tank thus introducing me to sub ohming. I then bought an MVP 3 pro with kanger sub tank mini. I'm currently using an IPV4s with mutation xv4. Oh and I forgot to say. I started vaping in July.
April 2011. Started with Smoke anywhere(piece of crap). Then joye 510. Riva. Lavatube. Ego V6. Smoketech Woo 5 volt. 3 vamos. 3 provaris. All good, wish vaping was around in the 60's, wouldn't of smoked for 50 years. All the best B.K.
September 2013: my first was a Joyetech eCab e-cig. It is in use to this day (among other devices).
