My name is Mike S. I am new to the vaping<br \/>\ncommunity as I have been vaping for a little over a month now. I gotta say, I&#8217;m<br \/>\nlovin it!! I too started smoking &#8220;analogs&#8221; when I was 17. I am 33 yrs young now and<br \/>\nI was feeling through the years that cigarettes were becoming a crutch that I leaned<br \/>\non all too often. I&#8217;ve tried to quit on a few occasions, making it nearly a year on<br \/>\none, but I always went back. <\/p>\n<p>Well recently, I finally had enough of analogs. The way they smelled, made me smell,<br \/>\nthe taste left in my mouth, and the COST!!! A co-worker and a trip to the wonderful<br \/>\nworld of the Internet on a search for a safer alternative led me to your reviews.<br \/>\nBut let&#8217;s rewind a few. I have tried an e-cig in the past. I&#8217;m sure you&#8217;ve heard of<br \/>\nthem. The company name is safe-cig. Small battery with prefilled cartos that are<br \/>\nsuppose to be the closest thing to the analogs I used. Yeah, not true. Those didn&#8217;t<br \/>\nlast long with me. My co-worker showed up to work one day with an ego t tank system<br \/>\nrockin mega dual coil cartos and drip tip. He let me vape his device a few times. On<br \/>\nthe first draw or two, I choked on the vapor. But after that&#8230;BAM! I wanted one! A<br \/>\nweek later, I was vaping on my own. I too now use an ego battery with mega dual coil<br \/>\ncartos which I&#8217;ll be upgrading to the provari variable voltage soon. But I jumped<br \/>\nahead a little here&#8230;<\/p>\n<p> I am in law enforcement, so the lack of &#8220;wind&#8221; during heavy activity was a major<br \/>\ndrawback. Not being able to be physical for a longer period of time can be a<br \/>\ndisadvantage that may cost a life or my own. Luckily, I found your reviews. They<br \/>\nhave been a HUGE help to me. Not only are they very very informative, they are<br \/>\nentertaining as well. I like how you leave nothing out. From unboxing, all the way<br \/>\nto breaking devices down to bare bones. To be honest, I nearly watched every single<br \/>\none of them in one sitting. You have helped me tremendously and I can&#8217;t say thank<br \/>\nyou enough!!! From juice reviews and device reviews, I have learned so much and<br \/>\nhave recommended my co-worker to tune in as well. With my new found knowledge, I<br \/>\nmay have also converted some analog users to the &#8220;light&#8221; side known as vaping.<br \/>\n(yeah, star wars reference) Included is my dad. Which it will be nice to see him<br \/>\noff of analogs as well as anyone else who still is. <\/p>\n<p>So this ran a little long, but again, thanks so much for great reviews and the<br \/>\ninformation you pass on. I really appreciate what you do and enjoy your humor. Big<br \/>\nthumbs up!! Haha had to do that. Thanks again and keep them comin and I&#8217;ll keep<br \/>\nwatching!<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hey Phil! My name is Mike S.
