About a year ago, I moved to a new apartment complex and I smoked cigarettes on the balcony as I had done in the previous location. In a couple of days, the upstairs lady neighbor called down and told me she was allergic to smoke and could I please smoke out front, which I did. But within a week, I bought my first vaping device, a disposable tank and ego battery. I had a friend who had introduced me to the concept of vaping a few months before and so I knew about it. After two or three disposable tanks, I upgraded to tanks where you could change the coil head, which I still use as my backup. Two weeks ago I graduated to a mod (kbox/Kanger tank) and it is amazing. Cigarettes can never please like a good vape! Particularly in my early period, my units would flood out or dysfunction or I would run out of battery charge and would have the random cigarette. Not near as pleasing. Next day I would run to the vape store to get my unit fixed or buy another. From vaping day one, the only time I smoked cigarettes was in these emergency situations. I have no desire to smoke again. Since I smoked menthol cigarettes (Pall Malls) I started with menthol juice (24) and until last week had never bought other flavors except peppermint. My friend, who is now guiding through my vaping journey, introduced me to all sorts of other flavors and I finally took the plunge, buying berry and grape flavor juices. I still use 24mg juice. The lesser strengths are not strong enough for me. I guess after smoking since 1979 when I was in college I really like my nicotine! I am so much happier vaping and knowing that I am practicing a safer and more enjoyable alternative to smoking. My taste buds have improved and the convenience of being able to vape from my easy chair instead of having to step outside is great. Gone is the feeling I had of being a pariah every time I lit up outdoors in public. It would be devastating if vaping was taken away from me now. I also have to thank my good friend who has been vaping for years and is an expert in the field on guiding me through this wonderful world we call vaping!
