I recently began vaping at the beginning of this year (2015). I had been a pack and a half of full flavor cigarettes a day for almost 16 years, but thanks to vaping I am down to half a pack a day. That’s an entire pack difference. Vaping is what helped me cut back on traditional cigarettes. I hope to be cigarette free by the end of the year and I believe vaping will help me get there. I currently use a refillable tank with a variable wattage/voltage regulated battery mod. I have had more success with this than the ecig disposable pen I started with. I had tried using the nic patch and gum. Even attempted cold turkey. All of those attempts failed. Just from vaping and cutting back traditional smokes I feel better and can breathe a little better. I honestly feel vaping will make me an ex smoker.
