Jkimbo

well after 3 months with out a cigarette I paniced yesterday. I was at work and my carto died, I had a spare but that was a previous dead one I forgot to replace in my bag, so I had nothing! I had to bum a cigarette and it was terrible. Vaping is soooo much better then analogs! I could not wait until I got home to vape!!! Trust me, in time you will feel the same way!

I started at 11 mgs went up to 16 then 24 and finally up to 36mgs! Yes I still vape like theres no tomorrow and it's been 3 mos for me so far. I've tried lowering my nic level but I get cigarette cravings when I drop below 36mg.

I think to many news reporters and possibly the FDA may already suffer from Alz

Not sure about the lungs but it can't be as bad as smoke. We should also be concerned with the throat and mouth. I've noticed at times I sound a bit raspy as if I had a soar throat even tho I don't. This harshness is either on my vocal chords or from moisture in my breathing tube (trieckia?). Not sure if this is ok or not. Aain I can't imagine it as bad as smoke, but should be looked at just so we know.

2 years after you quit smoking, the FDA bans ecigarette sales.

Pollution. It is NYC.

I have trouble sleeping too and another reason I vape nothing but 36mg at nite and even during the sleep nite when I wake up about 4 times! I read some where about nicotine effects. It has a dual effect. The study was done on cigarettes so not sure how much it can apply to ecigs. They claimed that shorter puffs result in short energy bursts, and slow long drags results in a sedating effect. The body and mind is usually on auto pilot and will smoke as needed at the time. I can testify that slow long drags on ecigs (36mg) and holding in the vapor longer, does produce the desired effect for me at nite. More of a sedating calming relaxing effect. At bed time I am not concerned with coulds of vapors. I'd rather just get to sleep

Sounds like either dry carts or weak battery. try recharging battery and new cart or add a sittle more juice in it. Also, when adding juice don't over fill as that will cause flooding and very little vapor too! If it's hard to puff on or you hear a gurgle sound it's over filled. The kit looks actually decent priced and offers cartomizers and carts and juices. You certainly could have done worse!

All good points. But I think we may be in for a rough ride soon. It will be interesting to see where we are around this time next year. I think we will see this market shrink some in the USA. Leaving only the bigger players. I have mixed feelings about that.

We don't know what quality control the Chinese follow. There are not too many American juice makers but they all pride themselves in very clean and strict quality. That's the only reason, may or may not be justified. I'm a gadget guy too.

#3 for me too. But I can't help wondering how hard that would be and if I would have to resort to analogs until I score lol.

Just wondering and thought it might be interesting. Ok I guess I don't know how to make a poll on this forum lol. The question was: What will you do if they ban ecigs The choices were: 1. I would probably just quit all together. 2. I would probably go back to smoking analogs. 3. I would keep vaping and use the black market.

So true, what's the point? But addressing the health question, usa juice and zero nic is prolly as safe as processed food When you think about it, smoking and vaping looks silly. If I didn't want to get my nic fix I wouldn't even bother.

I've had the stick batteries, they last about an hour and a half tops. That is puffing time not sitting time. So if your a light smoker, you could last half the day on one battery. You would still want to carry at least 2 spares. For me I needed 3 batts to get thru work or 2 batts and always charging one. The Ego is a monster. I consider myself a heavy vapor. A regular 650mAh batt will last me almost all day. I have yet to exhaust my 1000mAh battery! I swear it has gone almost 2 days for me!

Congratulations to you for your brave new move. Enjoy your new freedom.
