Hello gang, just wanted to introduce myself.
I've been smoking since about 13, so around 16 years now. It wasn't much of an issue to me until about 4 years ago, when I started to become more of a heavy smoker. I've really started to feel the toll on myself the past couple years and have tried a few different ways to quit... none successful.
I tried my first ecig about a year ago... couldn't tell you the brand... but i do remember it was "on sale" and didn't do much for me... maybe lasted 3 days, and then broke. I wasn't even upset about it because I had just about had it with that thing anyway.
I'm making a serious commitment to quitting "analogs" for several reasons. My daughter is getting old enough now to notice smoking and i don't want to contribute to that bad influence. Also, my wife to be is seriously on me and has even threatened to not buy a house with me if i continue smoking. (Ironically she and i used to spend entire weekends together smoking and drinking in college, and she just up and quit cold turkey one day.) And lastly, my mother, who is a stubborn, stubborn woman who has been smoking cheap menthols for probably 45-50 years finally has been diagnosed with emphysema... and she has made up her mind to keep smoking even if shes wheeling around with an oxygen tank and a menthol 100 in her mouth.
All that being said, Its time. I've been researching different types of ecigs based on my needs. I feel that the thing I would most need would be the throat hit to be strong. Based on some of the explanations posted here, I've decided to go with this. There doesn't seem to be too many gripes about this brand, and i've read in several places that this is a good choice if looking for throat hit.
I'd welcome some constructive criticism, or any suggestions. I'd also like any suggestions on which cartomizers to pick for my first 5. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks!
