What a great gift you got for him!! A variety of juices would probably be a big bonus for him - even if most of them are tobacco flavors. A lot of the fun of vaping is trying different flavors. My advice would be to tell him to take long, slow drags...to fill his mouth with vapor before inhaling. Also, tell him not to give up if he feels like it isn't working. The best thing to do is to give it a chance. Even if he still smokes for awhile, every cigarette he doesn't have is a good thing. If every time he wants a cigarette he'll vape first, he might cut down on a lot of the cigarettes. If after vaping for awhile he still wants a cigarette, he can have one. That alone might help him not be anxious about it. If he just relaxes and gives the eGo a try, he'll soon be vaping more than he is smoking without working too hard at it and would probably completely replace the cigarettes with the eGo. He doesn't have to push himself at all. And he might even find (like I did) that he loves vaping more than smoking and he'll make the switch quickly. But he needs to know that he doesn't have to. I smoked for 34 years and didn't have any problems whatsoever switching over...some people have taken longer. But from what I've seen, most people do eventually make the switch. There are quite a few of us here that have smoked for more than 20 years, so he would be in good company if he'd join the forum. We'll give him all the encouragement he could ever ask for. Let him know that we all wish him the best of luck and would love to have him here.

That's a great gift and if you can get him to stick with it he will thank you for it in no time. If he's anything like I was at first then all the "work" of filling carts or cartos will seem like a pain in the butt for him. After all..it's so much easier to just pull out a cig and a lighter and start smoking. So my first suggestion to you would be to either offer to fill up his cartos for him or just have several ready to go right off the bat. Also see about getting his some sort of small pouch or case for his eGo and juice/carts. I don't think about it much anymore, but at first having all that stuff in my pockets just seemed like such a waste. But I guess the most important thing to do is remind him how much better he'll feel and how much you're doing this to keep him around longer. After he gets into the use of it and finds the enjoyment and health benefits like the rest of us he will be on his way and thank you for your concern. Just remember we are all here to help. Have him join in and ask questions and maybe together we can all get him vaping and having an analog free life. Good luck and happy vaping. p.s. also try a few different types of juice...he might like something different, never know.
