Phil,<\/p>\n

I was a smoker for 27 years; 2 packs a day for around the last 10 of those years.
\nOver those years I have tried to quit smoking a few times but never was able to find
\na way to quit for good. Because I have failed to quit so many times I never thought
\nit was possible. Never wanted to put myself through the pain or those around me
\nthrough my mood swings anymore. Kinda figured I would be hacking and weezing the
\nrest of my life.<\/p>\n

However, a couple of years ago I tried a e-cig from China and it really did not cut
\nit until one night I was running out of smokes and needed something to get through
\nthe long night of work without having to go to the store. It did the trick and the
\nnext day I went out to get the Blu starter which helped me to reduce my smoking a
\nlittle but did not really cut it. This is when I went to youtube and searched out a
\nreview for a better e-cig product. I was disappointed as every review seemed to say
\nthat product was the best and I felt like they were all made by the company of the
\ne-cig they were reviewing. That was until I found your review on the Blu e-cig. It
\nwas the first review which seemed honest so I watched a few more of your videos. It
\nwas then when I went to a new brick and mortar store in the area and they set me up
\nwith a ego starter kit and explained everything on how to use it; very helpful.<\/p>\n

It was while using this starter kit when I really made a real attempt to quit and
\nreduced my smoking. I made a rule where I would not smoke in my basement office and
\nwould have to go outside. To prevent me from going up the stairs I would watch your
\nvideos and vape along with you. This helped me get through any urges to go smoke. I
\nalso learned about so many great ways to enjoy vaping more with all the tank, juice,
\nand mod reviews; think I watched them all.<\/p>\n

To that point, around Christmas 2013 I had 2 smokes left in my last pack and smoked
\none of them. I waited until January 03, 2014 to smoke the last one (yeah, I was to
\ncheap to throw it away as I was paying around $10 a pack). I have not had another
\nsmoke since that day and really have not had an urge to either. <\/p>\n

I now breath better with no more annoying hacking cough or weezing when climbing
\nstairs. That came in handy with the amount of snow I had to shovel this year too. I
\ncan even make it through a seminar without coughing and having to suck on a cough
\ndrop the entire time. I feel like I owe you a debt of gratitude or at least a thank
\nyou for vaping with me until all hours of the night to keep me from going up the
\nstairs to have a smoke. You might not know it but you and a few other reviewers out
\nthere were the difference between me vaping or smoking and I am eternally grateful.
\nThank you for what you do Phil, it is really appreciated!!<\/p>\n

Sincerely, <\/p>\n
