Congratulations! My wife is having similar issues with vaping, I guess there is still hope.

On day 40 of my vaping transition, I went to 0% nic juice. I started on 24mg juice, and a couple weeks later I started to cut the juice in half with straight VG, which knocked it down to 12mg. I then ordered a large batch of 0% juices, and have been vaping 0% this week. So far, so good. If I feel the need for a good stout throat hit, I'll fire up the Copper at 6v and hit it a couple times, works like a charm.

Thank you. I got the 0% nic juice from pecsmokeshop(dot)com. The prices are pretty high, but I was told to give them a try by a friend. I bought 18 different flavors from them, and I guess about half of them I would buy again.

Just thought I would post my progression into the world of "alternative" nicotine. This is my 45th day of vaping, and 45th day free of any analogs. My evolution started on a whim, with a "Smoke51" overpriced egig from a tobacco shop. It worked, and convinced me to research this new delivery system further. I found this forum, and read... a lot! Within my first week, I upgraded to a pair of Rivas, with the 1100 mah batts. Great stuff, battery life lasted me 12 hours of pretty heavy vaping. Then noticed,backup batteries(one battery) were going to run me about$20.00 + shipping, each. Researched here some more, and ordered a couple of "Coppers"in 2 different designs, bulletproof so far. I have actually weaned myself down to 0mg nicotine juices this last week, and I am doing fine with that. Will I give up vaping now? Hell no, I love it!! I still love the "smoking" sensation of vaping, and I love the flavors. I just don't think I need to have the nicotine now, but I definitely still have the hand to mouth fixation leftover from smoking analogs, which is fine for me, I don't care. Besides, look at all the different mods to play with! Again, many thanks to all who post here, and everyone who supplies pv's and juice.

Well, we go out to eat more often now.

Is there any advantage of having one type over another? Or is it mostly just cosmetics?

That was easy, thanks.

I started with the same exact model, and quickly learned they were easy to refill with the "condom" method. Also, what appeared to be quite a few dead cartos in my boxes, wasn't that. I found the threads on the cartos and batteries were slightly out of time,(on 2 complete kits, the wifes and mine both). I found that if I backed the carto off the battery, just a few degrees, the carto would come to life. It's possible you have the same problem. I went with the Riva, shortly thereafter(ego/riva/kgo/tornado) and am nothing but pleased. I'm no expert, but tht's what I found.
