Hello all my name is Joshua Schley aka Shizzle I started smoking in the year of 2005 after joining the (Active Duty) Army in Sept. It seemed like the thing to do and I was one back then to say I would never smoke but, I learned later on to never say never. So while under intense stress of being in the army, deploying, having to be on alert at all times for the sake of life I smoked countless packs of my chosen newport/ camel menthol cigs. It wasn’t until august 2013 I got medically retired from the (Active Duty) Army that I was introduced to the electronic cigarette from a long time friend of mine Andrew Farmer which guided me to electronstix.com where I purchased my first KEAR 650mah ego. I also introduced and bought my wife one as well, since then we have been cigarette free for almost a month with no thought or craving for a cigarette whatsoever. We also recently purchased the 1300mah egoW with (VV) variable voltage and the evod bottom coil clearomizers tanks and we just love them. If you are interested in quitting traditional smoking for good (your decision) and looking for a much more healthier way to smoke I hands down recommend vaping, start off with a beginners kit (that you can afford)and if you (choose) to become a vaper instead of a smoker you are deffinately taking a step or two in the right direction. I pray it works for you like it did for me and my wife but, unfortunately everyone is different and it may not (only you have the power to determine that)but I truly would love for anyone to just give it a shot. If you would like to know more there are a plethra of vids on youtube I recommend grimmgreen of grimmgreen.com beginner vids are(taking the next vaping step 1&2), pbusardo,the hilarious indoorsmokers channel (yes its about vaping (: ) there are also websites as well to read up on before you (make a decision) thank you all for reading this, and in the words of grimmgreen lets keep on vaping.
