Thanks to my vape, I've had only one single cigarette in the past 3 weeks. I have zero cravings for them and I feel considerably better. In fact, I still have about 5 smokes left in a pack and just can't see myself smoking those... don't want to.
Even better... 5ml of juice, which costs $5, lasts me about 2 weeks meaning that I am spending less in the long run. I only smoked, at most, a pack a week... but still.
I tried the Blu E-Cigs but they were terrible. Trying to "smoke" out of one of those was like trying to take a hit off a joint that was rolled WAY to tight.
I'm using an eGo-V v2 mega battery with variable voltage control with a gravity tank.

Hasn't been popular enough for long enough to have long term studies done. We are the guinea pigs. It's almost undoubtedly not worse than cigarettes though. [Reply]

I like the local dealer because they know all this stuff, and you can try all their flavors. It's just a nicer personal touch.
There is no way...NO WAY that the long term ramifications of vaping are anywhere near as bad as they are with smoking. So there's that. [Reply]

They've been around for a long time though, at least 10 years that I know of. And in all that time, it's hard to believe they can't "figure out" if they are dangerous. Personally, I think the foot dragging and hand wringing is done on the part of the tobacco companies. If Phillip Morris had any brains they'd jump on this bandwagon. [Reply]

It's true. Even though it sucked seeing I spent too much, those guys in there are usually always really cool and they will let you test every single juice they have. [Reply]

No long term studies because it hasn't been around long enough to do them. The vapor droplets can't physically go as deep into your lungs as smoke particles. So right off the bat it's not as invasive. The vapor isn't from combustion so you aren't breathing in actual smoke, that's another plus because you aren't dumping the crap from a small dirty campfire into yourself every time you take a hit. I can tell you that I felt the same effects as a person who quits cold turkey (other than the nicotine itself). My lungs are cleaning themselves out and I am breathing easier. [Reply]

Yeah. I go online for parts and I go local for juice. [Reply]

For me, I still want a cigarette even if I puff on my e-cig nonstop all day. [Reply]

I pick up a replacement atty if I need to for $4 at the local shop
Oh, I live in a dink little ag center. The nearest places for parts are in a college town and they charge twice what they should. Strangely enough I can get the fluid right on the main street of our (population 7k) town. [Reply]
Just got home with the I-taste MVP, enjoying it so far, great vape, battery should last forever and I like the idea I can charge my phone with it. I got the gal I bought from to throw in some grape e-juice, kinda taste like feet, gonna need some different juice. [Reply]

Sweet. I almost grabbed that one, it was really close. Can you pop in the thread later and let me know how the unit works? [Reply]
