I think the trick is after you are able to cut back start trying some non-tobacco flavors. Once you taste what's out there the analogs start tasting worse and worse. Don't beat yourself up over not walking away from them right away. You have made great progress and that's what you should focus on. It will get easier but you just have to look at what you have accomplished not at what you think you are failing at. We are here everyday and will hold your hand through the whole process. Even 1 analog not smoked is good.

Merry Christmas to you Snubber and everyone! I think you summed it up quite nicely Snubbs this is a great forum and I feel at home here.

Thanks for sharing that Jeff!

I just wanted to give a shout out to Tim and Helen at Hot Vapes. If you haven't tried their juices I strongly encourage you to. Helen makes her juices and keeps the flavors limited,They concentrate on fewer but higher quality flavors. When a supplier approaches you and asks for an honest opinion and what would you do to improve it you know they are serious about providing quality. They like the sweeter dessert flavors as do I and that's what they focus on and they have really nailed it. They take pride in producing a high quality juice and it really shows in the end product. I haven't had a single flavor from them that I disliked, they taste like what they say they do. Helen is always thrilled to hear that people like her creations and for these two the satisfaction of their customers in their product is more important than how much they sell. That speaks volumes about the quality and care that goes into everything they make. Give them a try folks you will not regret it.

Tom tried this one and liked it. I didn't. The videos are coming and it was so much fun Mark! Wish you could have been there, you would have had a ball.

I love mine, only drawback is it takes a lot of juice to fill. I also like the Jumbo cartos at wordup, easier to keep filled and going strong. My first one is about 3 months old and I am going to order a 5 pack soon to replace it.

Hot Vapes Caramel Apple. Will be on the site soon.

I like Vg because of the vapor. I tend to go 50/50 a lot though. VT is the only straight PG I buy but that's due to the fact that I like some of VT's flavors and I trade off big plumes of vapor for it. It's a personal choice, but PG drys my mouth and throat out too much to do it all the time.

Chris was kind enough to throw in a 10mL bottle of juice and a 5 pack of LR cartos to our gift bags so I got 1 flavor I had tried and liked and 1 flavor I didn't think I would. RY4 and Peach Menthol. 18mg VG. The RY4 was one of several I tried last week-end and it was one of my favorites, sweet, nutty, good TH and monster vapor. I will buy this again. Clean flavor very satisfying. Peach Menthol, hubby tried this and loved it but I didn't try it, I really like their peach so I didn't see any reason to mess it up. I'm beginning to doubt my own judgement. I tried this over the week-end and it rocketed up to the big bottle list. Sweet and very peachy on inhale and the menthol kick on exhale. WOW I love this! It was not something I thought I would like but I do! Great to drip with and killer with LR atty on eGo. Windy City Vapor is a thin VG but it gives plumes of vapor. Another taste treat from Chris!

Hi and welcome back. Maybe this time is the charm for you. I know that I've been cold-free (knock on wood) since switching over and so has hubby. I like the menthols and mints when I feel a bit stuffed up, they open me right up. I'm not a fan of clove but I hear the VT Clever Clove hits the spot for clove lovers. You will make it just keep in touch and enjoy the good tastes instead of the smoke taste. Good luck I hope you are feeling better soon.

Juicy Vapor is my gourmet place for juices. The combos Anthony offers are almost mind-boggling as are the different kinds of flavors. I tried some new ones this week-end and brought home a few of them. Anthony was also one of our suppliers who provided juices for our meet-up gift bags so a big thank you for that. First up is a little gem I vaped through a 3 mL bottle yesterday. All are 18mg PG/VG mix on 5V Big Kazoo. Vanilla Peppermint Stick is exactly what is says, sweet smooth vanilla and a big pop of peppermint. Cool peppermint on inhale with nice TH, soft sweet vanilla kicks in on exhale, nice vapor production, clean, crisp taste. Reminds me of Angel mints. I really like this one and it's a big bottle list flavor. Eggnog topped with a Maraschino, let me first just say that Anthony ruined me for all other eggnogs when he let me try a new flavor he's developing called Eggnog Milkshake. The eggnog with maraschino is cinnaminny with a hint of maraschino cherry throughout. I liked this one but much preferred the richer creamier milkshake version. I am waiting anxiously for that one to be rolled out. Gingerbread Apple pie, Apple pie all the way on inhale and a hint of gingerbread on exhale. Very good, sweet and a great cold winter day vape. I will buy this one in the future. Fruit striped Gum, I love this gum and this juice nails the flavor. Sweet, fruity with a hint of tart on inhale and sweet fruity mix on exhale. This one is exactly like the gum it is based on. I love it and put it on the big bottle list. Last but not least is a flavor that will be one of my favorites for a long time. Like the Vanilla Peppermint Stick it is an all day vape. Scooby Snack. Melon, Banana Cream, and Coconut. I didn't taste melon which is fine with me, but the coconut and banana are so balanced one doesn't overpower the other. You get both on inhale and exhale. Excellent combo and flavor. I can't get enough of this one! Big bottle for sure here. Anthony's juices are true to their names, very sweet and full flavored, the smell is incredible and they leave a soft sweet aroma behind, like being in a candy store. He offers many other choices including some less sweet and also some savory flavors, and yes Jalapeno. I am sticking with the sweet offerings since that is what I like. I look forward to our meets to see what new goodies he has come up with. Hand mixed in small batches Juicy Vapors delivers.

i remember that story and now I'm crying. With these big dogs their life spans are so short and they seem so human. Just the thought kills me.

I'll have daughter get some pics. She's been busy with the Holiday ice show so after next week-end I will see more of her.

Ditto Nana. Exactly the same here

I love Hot Vapes for sweet dessert juices period. Last night I received a few new ones I tried a few new ones and fell in love with one of their older ones. So here goes, all using 5V Kazoo 12mg 50/50 mix. Cafe Filbert has been around a while but since I don't like coffee juices much I ignored it. As usual I was wrong. I got some last night and tried it this morning.Light creamy coffee on inhale, very nice TH, rich warm hazelnut on exhale. Clouds of vapor, clean sweet taste more like a hazelnut latte. The smell is all sweet coffee this is big bottle worthy. Eggnog this is a new one, creamy eggnog flavor a bit heavy on the nutmeg but Helen is still tweaking this one since she doesn't like eggnog she is getting some feedback. I did like this though and look forward to future tastings. Caramel Apple is another new one not on the site yet even. Hubby REALLY likes this one but tough I do too. Sweet apple on inhale with a hint of tart and rich creamy caramel on exhale.Helen's caramels are outstanding very sweet and rich so this was no surprise that I liked it, also a big bottle flavor. I saved the best for last, RY4. I have wondered about this flavor but last night I took the leap and tried several. I found 3 big bottle worthy ones but this one is my most favorite. I would happily vape these three all day long but this one is special. Much sweeter than I would have thought, smooth, warm, comfortable feeling, like a favorite sweater. I'm in love and only sorry they hadn't brought 12mL bottles with them. All of the flavors I have tried from Hot Vapes have wonderful clean flavors. Rich, sweet, and dessert like I discovered them here on VT and tried them out in Sept. I was so pleased with their products I mentioned them on WCV site and The Green contacted them for our meets and now I feel like they are favorite cousins. You know the ones who always bring great desserts to family gatherings. So I have only The Green to blame for trying flavors I wouldn't have. Thanks Helen and Tim for indulging my sweet tooth without expanding my waistline.

All I can say about VT Sweet Dawn on this is OMG! Light, sweet, crisp, and clean. WOW!

Congrats Darrin! I won a Big Kazoo kit last night so I know you're feeling pretty happy right now. The vaping community is unlike anything I've ever been a part of before. So much fun and such great people. As smokers the best we ever did was nod in passing at each other if that, and there is certainly no groups or meet-ups. We however do have so many choices of equipment and flavors and I'm having a blast trying everything out. Glad you won and enjoy, especially since winter is here and we can really enjoy rather than run outside, get our nic fix, and run back in. Not to mention the added years to our lives to enjoy.

Last night I was fortunate enough to win a Big Kazoo kit at the WCV meet. I have never been a big fan of the box mods but my mind has been changed. Mine is the clear blue model 5V, it came with a Trustfire multifunctional charger which thrilled me even more. My beloved eGo battery had just pooped out, too much juice too much vaping, when I won this so of course I had to use her right away. Color is a clear cobalt blue with a black soft button which I really like the feel of. On/off switch which surprised me and hubby thought was cool. Very lightweight, same size as a box of 5 cartos 510s, so very portable. The placement of the buttons is perfect for my hands and very easy to use. This is not nearly as tough as the metal mods so I will be careful and use this mostly at home, that was the only downside I found. The vapor production is huge and the juice flavors just scream. I was using a lot of new juices last night so I wanted to try an old favorite and see how that tasted. Since wordup White Zin is my favorite I have loaded her up with that at 18mg VG. If I loved WZ before I'm head over heels now. Next up will be Sweet Dawn and I have a feeling it's going to be wonderful. This little cutie runs on 2 900mah batteries and already hubby has been giving it the eye. My eGo and 6V will still go everywhere with me but this one will be my chat room kick back buddy for a long time. I think I've developed a new obsession, collecting mods. On this cold and snowy morning I am very happily vaping myself into a nicotine coma. Thank you Kalamazoo Vapors for this wonderful donation and a a sweet product.

I have a lot that I like. For all day vapes VT Dulcis and Midnight, wordup White Zin and Champagne. For sweeter dessert flavors, WCV Apple pie, and Hot Vapes Helmuts Chocolate Slurry and Whisker licker, for treat HV Watermelon Candy. Gourmet flavors Juicy Vapor too many to list. For a wake me up Wordup Double Mint and Juicy Vapor Icy Cool Green Tea. For a bedtime relaxer wordup Vanilla Bean and Eggnog, VT Sweet Dawn, I would say VT Midnight and wordup White Zin are great evening vapes but I like those all day long too much to save for just bedtime.

I agree with the others, for a few bucks more wordup has the eGo XL in several colors and a charge lasts me all day with very heavy use. One of the reasons I love the 510 is it's compatible with the eGo and many others. Good luck and stay inside and warm with a new eGo HOHOHO.

Chris would want to know if somethings up with one of his products, that's what makes him one of my trusted suppliers. I have some Butterscotch coming that should be here in an hour or two, I have brand new cartos just waiting to be filled so I will let you know what I think. I am really wishing I had ordered some Dulcis now but next time. I have to try the Sweet Dawn first but the butterscotch is second on my list to try today. I'll let you know, hopefully it's just your tastebuds lol.

Juicy Vapor juices are pretty incredible. I have met Anthony and will see him again on Sat. so I'm hoping he will bring some larger bottles of these 4 juices. Great review O and if you haven't checked out Juicy Vapor yet be prepared, he has some really gourmet flavors, lots of choices and he will mix you a juice that you dream up. Really great guy and now thanks to you O I'm making a beeline for that eggnog.

I will go underground too. I need to build up a supply so I'm covered.

Welcome to the wonderful world of the eGo. I have found that VT juices are very smooth, Dulcis seems to have the biggest TH for me but it isn't a bit harsh. Wordup also has same smooth hit, as does Hot Vapes. I really am getting to like the cartos and after trying a few out I'm the most pleased with Joye 510 cartos. Silver threads and holds a lot of juice. You can get them at wordup I know they are in stock. I have several fresh cartos sitting here waiting for my order of VT Sweet Dawn and Butterscotch the only problem I have found with the eGo and good juices is that I would rather stay home and vape then to go anywhere. Have fun and think of all the chemicals your little one is not being exposed to now.

Great review SNJ. Mark's Mods are little works of art, and to have one would be like having a bit of an incredible person with you all the the time. What an honor to have such a beautiful gift from the heart.
