Hi all,
Tom and Katie here, we're new to the vaping world and would love a bit of commentary on what has worked for you despite it all being personal preference when it boils down to it. We've been reading through ECF for a good while now, and of course watching the mandatory youtube videos as well, GrimmGreen has become a favorite of sorts lately. Really though, we just love the support given, the patience everyone has with beginners, and the real love of vaping! Gotta say, you all have built a very welcoming community here.
So to preface, I (Tom) have smoked for about 10-11 years now with months of late being in the 1.5 ppd range, Katie in particular had smoked for about 7 years, at roughly .75-1 ppd. I was a variety of things, beginning on Marlboro Milds and moving into Marlboro Light before more recently frequenting the Marlboro Black or Red variety. Katie on the other hand was a Marlboro Menthol light girl, before moving into Pall Mall white (menthol light).
We researched and talked about the switch for weeks, months maybe. One day it all became too much and we visited a local shop, presumably just to 'sample' and 'have a look'. I'm sure you all can guess what happened- we both bought eGo-CTwist 1000mah batts and I picked up a 650 to have as a backup for us to share if needed, with what I would presume to be a CE4 tank at the recommendation for beginners of the shop owner.
Now, I do want to thank you for still reading this less than riveting novel I'm currently splattering all over your forum!
Long story short, she's done fantastically with it so far, didn't care for her cool mint gum flavor solo, but has been adoring a mix of that with caramel coconut, after having only 2 the day we picked em' up (about 8 days ago) she had one more and since- NONE! I on the other hand, have had mixed results, but hey - any lessening of the dreaded 'analog' is a plus, right? I'm doing well too, though I've found this 'Winston' 18mg juice to not quite cut it. I'm sitting on the couch right now, and beside the 5-6 analogs I had throughout the day, I've not touched one for the rest of the night and I'm vaping away happily with a cold beverage as I type.
So I said long story short....perhaps I lied, but I'm close to done..I swear!
What we're truly after is full 'satisfaction'. She's happy, though would love going further, and I could use a smooth throat hit, big vapor production, and a taste that really does result in a vape that for me, surpasses analog results.
So again, thank you for the read, if you respond - thanks even more! I'm a very technical guy, so I'm not scared to jump in, though walking before we run is appreciated. Thanks again, and, keep up this awesome community, KCCO and keep vaping!
