I bought my mods from here: http://www.ivapour-elixir.co.uk/
I owned three at one stage (sold two & gave one away). I had a Silver Bullet and two Omega's. Both were made in the U.S. but the manufacturers wouldn't ship outside of the U.S. & Canada so I bought mine from the UK.

I was one of the first people in the world to use batteries with a combined 7.2v The manufacturers said you shouldn't stack batteries or go over 3.6v
Rubbish I vaped with 7.2v combination which over the day the voltage of course became less. Nowadays vaping with mods using 7v or above is common. These were protected batts and chargeable.

My combination was:
Silver Bullet or Omega Mod
RCR123A 16340 3.6v 880mah batteries x 2
Vapornine Nebula Turbo KR808 cartridges (plain as I used my own nic juice)
T-Tip Drip Tip
The nicotene juice and flavours I used were:
Platinum Ice 54mg/ml Unflavoured e-liquid for mixing, 50ml bottle
Decadent Vapours Brasilliano Coffee and Tiramisu.

Just remember, it's all in the mind — like most things. Good luck.

There s a book that came out in about 1983? that is still in print which points you in the right direction... i think the author was Alan carr and the book was titled something like the "best little book to help you quit smoking"

Read the book... quit for forever in about 2 days... costs about $15...

Exposes the only real reason why someone smokes... that person wants to feel like a non smoker... when it's explained like that you just have to give your head a shake and quit...

I was also a smoker for 30+ years (despite being a sportsman at representative level) and towards the end I would average 25 a day, more on weekends and rugby trips etc.

My father died of lung cancer at 63 (brought on by asbestos but aggravated by smoking) and still I didn't stop.

I did stop 4 years ago, the reasons being my two young kids and constantly harassed by a Pharmacist wife.

I still miss it but will never go back. If I can give up anyone can.
Hwyl fawr,
Kevin

Well done Kevin,

The biggest problem is the subconcious, when packing up you try to convince yourself that it wouldn't hurt to have one more ?? that's only kidding yourself.

It all comes down to wanting to pack it in, if you want to you will and if you don't you won't and it's no good kidding yourself to the contrary, I'm with Andy, good luck to all who are trying, it isn't easy but it's worth it !!

Dave.

Default Giving up . . !

The one thing I noticed when giving up was that other smokers who would not normally offer you a cigarette almost fell over themselves offering you one.

I found the best solution was to take the offered cigarette and say that I would have it later, you would not believe the number of times I was asked did I want a light?

When trying to give up, think how many badges you could buy with a weeks ciggy money . . !
