    Some people do have an easier time finding a juice they like.
    Oops accidentally posted before I was done.
    I ended up having to buy flavors that I like and then add pure menthol to them and mix them, because I'm a menthol freak

    I get most of my juice from here http://www.ahlusion.us , they have a store near me, their prices are teeny bit high but they are considered by many to have some of the best, and highest quality juice in the country.
    I also get some from Mount Baker Vapor, out of California very good prices and good juice there

    I have a straight higher nicotine juice for those moments that seem to be getting me through. I left no stone unturned. Went as far as counting my drags from a regular cig and evauating it to drags in the vape. Sounds stupid I know, but I dont want to over do it unknowingly, and become addicted to the vape or fail because I wasnt getting enough nicotine for starters.

    Thanks WS, I'll check it out. When I down-play the routine of going out and smoking, that will be a big part in quitting.

    x2 Gum is horrible IMHO.

    I didn't want to invest big money into a vape unit just yet. So I checked this review(below) site on the other e cigs. I also wanted one that looked something like a regular smoke.

    https://www.electroniccigarettesreviews.net/

    The markten I chose is made by the same company(nu mark) that makes green smoke(#2 on the review list). Works pretty good and isn't a cheap throw away. I got the regular as I smoked non menthols.

    https://www.markten.com/

    http://www.nu-mark.com/about-us/our-story/green-smoke/Pages/default.aspx

    The V2(which ranked #1 on the review) is another I was interested in as it has cartridges like the expensive units. I might go that route as a back up so I can play with the different juices. Or I'll do what WS did and buy an expensive job for home use. I'll use the markten at work or while traveling.

    no thats not stupid at all but, to get the same amount of nicotine and satisfaction from the vaping you will need to puff almost twice as much as with a cigarette.
    The nicotine is absorbed more and quicker in the lungs from a cigarette whereas vaper is absorbed in the mouth, you will get better absorption by holding it in your mouth and or breathing it out your nose

    If its doing the trick, go for it. Vaping..... chit, I had really no idea what it was all about. I spent the better part of this past saturday researching. Is it healthy, not at all, but it beats ciggs by a long shot and worth the risk. I hate shopping, especially walmart. Their lines of lights alone will turn the strongest willed human into a zombie robot. I took a nice long puff down the cereal isle to re establish my composure.

    That look's like not what it actually is. I'd hate to get pulled over in Nebraska and have to explain that kit. Bad enough for a standard DWC. (driving while Coloradan)

    I hear you, but the Neb. State Patrol are hammering anyone with a Co. lic. plate. Transporting marijuana across state lines, it's a big no-no.
    Plus I-80 seems to be a big meth corridor, they set up check points at random. Luckily, I'm an angel, it's just an inconvenience if pulled over.

    Not stupid at all! My Vape actually counts how many pulls I take. I think I actually posted the wrong one earlier, this is the one I have http://www.ecigavenue.com/shop/itate-mvp-personal-vaporizer/
    Apparently they have a lot of versions of the mvp. I got it a couple weeks ago, had a different one before. This one is a BEAST!
