Vape-heads? Do You Vape?

[uncommondialogue]

Today I celebrate 3 months of no cigarettes! I can't believe how much I've learned about th product and information out there on vaping.

It has now become quite a hobby for me actually. I now have added to my Mods 2 Vamos, a great itaste MVP and a Sigelei#20 on its way. Started rebuilding coils and got a nice AGI and RSST at Vapestock.

Speaking of the itasteMVP...it is a variable voltage Box Mod that has a HUGE battery life on its charge and even has the ability to charge cell phones etc from it...great Mod to have now that heavy storm and hurricane season is here and possible power outages.

Luckily, with only 2 reported incidents in 6 years, I think are chances are pretty good at avoiding this! The annoying part is that this will draw attention to the ecig being "dangerous", when in reality it was a bad battery, which could happen with anything containing a battery that you charge via usb.

Hey Holly (or anyone else)

Did this happen? I know there was talk about it, but I haven't seen anything on the thread yet.

Inquiring minds want to know.

[Dude]

I have not bought a pack of smokes for one month!
Between the 3rd and 4th week I get fidgety , say f it
And buy one pack I barely enjoy it at all.
I then get to feel like a failure and repeat the quitting
cycle.
Finally ,I figured out that I needed to try the e liquid
and bought an evod. Then a bunch of liquids to sample.
I originally was trying to do it with ecigarettes. Those ,
no matter what flavor I tried began to taste tinny and
perfumey once my taste buds started recovering.

It is confusing at first , trying to figure out wtf people
are talking about. Watch a bunch of youtubes or something.
Better still go to a store to sample for the " good shit" ;] !
I finally did this today because I was feeling angst-y and
bored with my juice! A huge trigger day but no smokes were
bought! Whew!
I ordered some juice from ms t's bakery last Sunday and
it still hasn't even shipped yet! I ordered snickerdoodle , German
Choc brownie, marshmallow menthol and aunt t's mint.
I have two or three favorites and am getting dangerously low.
Ev has a great dark choc mint and double menthol. Heavenly
Hv has a nice menthol ice. That was all I liked from them and
bought a sample pack
I came home with my first 30 ml bottle today of *derailed* by
Suicide bunny! Kind of expensive at $22 but it is delish!
It's like warm banana nut bread with cream cheese frosting and
a layer of cinnamon!
It smells so good a strange lady smelled me and asked what
I was baking. The bottle does not say how much pg or vg is
In there. I don't blame this company at
all for keeping her amounts a secret. It is soo good with coffee I
drank one too many cups and will now be up all night!
I'm pretty proud of myself to drive clear acrossed town to
get myself a flavor I love versus around the corner to buy
another disappointing pack of cigarettes again!
In another month, I'll go
Lower on my nicotine. I dropped myself too low way too soon
the last go around.
This flavor , some chocolate mint and menthol ice will
Do it for me ( I think)
And now after using their tank
I want one of those
Huge frickin vapor cloud
And the flavor was better

I thought I might like this tobacco sampler
I bought from twisted cigs but
Bleck! If you are into tobacco flavors
you might like these. Way too strong for me and
I have 5 - 5 ml bottles. Send me a pm if you want
them.
I'm only into the desserty tastes and it helps
A lot to curb my massive sweet tooth and wanting to
Eat constantly!

[Loren_Q]

Dude - good job!

And I totally get the drive across town for the best flavor beats buying a pack any day.

I've been vaping for about 18 months, most of my vape is 0/3mg, although I have a 12mg bottle at work (where I get the most stressed and have my biggest smoking triggers).

And I have a boatload of juice I bought but didn't care for after the first tank - I think most everyone who vapes for a period of time has those, but great idea to pass them along. I should get a list together and post it.

[Dude]

Good for you!
Yeah, figuring out our triggers is such a huge thing!
Driving home from work last night I had two dead batteries!
I twitched - but talked myself through it ( snort! )
Today, I will start charging up the cartridge type as
a back up measure and keep one in the truck from now on.
If I can keep my favorite juice's stocked up - I got this!
I had an extra medicine cabinet in my garage and
mounted it in the hall closet to store all my shit ,yo!
I've smoked for 40 years and am now at 32 days of no
cigarettes! My lungs and my body are starting to say-
Thank you - you self- destructive ass! ;/
I will take this replacement therapy any fn day over smoking and
maybe live
Another 10 -20 crotchety years! :]

Flavors I don't like are (N) 12mg 8 mil - (5 of them) tobacco
Sampler from twistedcigs. They smell of strong tobacco-
Heh! Can't believe I don't like the smell anymore but
I really don't! Probably hitting them too hard -but bleck!


(N)16mg 10 mls - these are eh ( ok -but not my dream flavors)
Strawberry cream
Coconut cream
2 Chocolate cream :\
If some one is interested ,
I'll pay postage - I just want them gone!

Just wanted to bump this thread and report back that I am *still* a non-smoker!

Vaping was quintessential in helping me quit and I've even stopped vaping unless in social situations. I know folks who still vape long-term (my Jackhammer is one!) just as a lifestyle.

Anyone else successfully quit with vaping long-term?

[imperfect_cupcake]

I did. Now I only Vape when I drink really.... It took about two years of vaping to get to here.

Though I did fall back to cigarettes when I broke with someone this summer and then had midterms. The combined stress was too much and I went back to smoking. I went through four packs, then went back to vaping for about four months and I'm now back to just using it at pubs and house parties when I drink.

[Loren_Q]

I've been cigarette free since about 2 months into vaping (2012), and am still vaping (mostly 0 or 3mg).

I don't see myself giving up vape, although I've gone places and forgotten my battery with no ill effects so I suppose I could stop vaping altogether, I just don't have a particularly compelling reason to do so.

This is the first time I've been cigarette free where I didn't have cravings, I even find myself wrinkling my nose at the smell smokers bring into the room/office.

Hey Guys,

I have a ton of vaping stuff that I am getting rid of if anyone is interested. Some liquids are sealed, unopened. I have nicotine solution sealed and has been in the deep freezer, empty sterilized bottles, and flavorings. If you are interested PM me.

Thanks.

I quit back in 2008, although I smoke a little when I drink. I vape very little and I don't use any nicotine. It really doesnt replace cigarettes for me but I never really have any cigarette cravings thankfully.
