I'd been trying to cut down on smoking (20 a day) for months and wasn't really having much success. I'd tried a cigalike a couple of years ago but it was junk and didn't help at all. Last Monday I stopped in at a local vaping shop round the corner from where I work just to see what it was all about, with no real idea of the kit available and no real intention of pursuing it. Had a few puffs and loved the flavours - loved the technology too, I'm an engineer and so I think I'm naturally predisposed to get excited by clever devices. So of course I bought a t3s starter kit and a couple of bottles of juice.
Next day I started vaping. When I went to bed I realised I'd only smoked 2 cigarettes that day, and haven't had one since...I'm incredibly happy and surprised in equal parts! Now instead of reading a book in the evenings I seem to be spending all my downtime reading POTV and find myself buying lengths of 3mm silica and 0.20 kanthal. I'm quickly realising the addiction warnings from cigarette packets need to be printed on vaping gear too, but for very different reasons!
