Ah, takes me back to be asked that.
Being a long time smoker, I was really REALLY skeptical at first about e cigs. I didn't think I could get a genuine smoking 'experience' using anything that wasn't on fire and filled with tobacco. Boy, was I wrong.
My first unit was a RN4081 unit, a small one that looks and feels most like a real cigarette. I took that sucker out of that box, charged it up and the very first puff, I KNEW I was a vaper and an ex-smoker. The feel as I inhaled was identical to a smoke, the hand to mouth habit was satisfied also. My harshest test was how satisfying an e cig would be with my morning cup of coffee. It did the trick. I was amazed.
This may seem a bit dramatic, but at that moment I felt the potential of these devices and I was filled with hope that I may have actually found a way out of my own smoking hell.
The juice that came preloaded in the cartridges was ok, but light years away from the juice I ended up with as my all day vape. The device was ok, and I enjoyed that first time, but as my pre-filled cartridges ran out, I knew that my 4081 wasn't going to be enough to handle a hardcore smoker like I was.
At that point, I decided to arm myself with any e cig knowledge I could find, that led me here....and the rest is history.
Since then, I determined what juice I like best, and moved up to a 5 volt device. And it was good.
I haven't looked back at cigarettes and I can't wait to see how much farther the development of e cigs goes, and (insert favorite deity here) willing, we will all get to spend just a little more time on Earth with our kids, friends and our families because of them.
