Well that's good Tim. Cause choking someone could be hazardous.
But if you ever felt the need to choke someone, you can use the excuse that your trying to quit smoking...

WOW! Congratulations, 3 days would be an eternity for me , I wish you continued success.

I picked up one of these apparatuses yesterday. "Superpuff" is the brand name, they didn't have the Zig Zag brand. I got 24 mg nicotine, blueberry juice to go with it.

I'm not real crazy about it, I didn't know until after I bought it that it has to be in an "upright position" all the time. That, is going to make it a little inconvenient. If there were a way to tie it on a string and carry it around my neck, I would do that, just because it would be more handy.

My intention is to put forth a real effort to make this thing work, I should have quit smoking in 02 when I got my first pacemaker, but I didn't and I really regret it now.

I am hoping to cut the nicotine down little by little until I no longer need this thing, I guess we'll see what happens.

I wish the best of luck to everyone out there who is trying to quit smoking/chewing, this is probably going to be the most difficult thing I have ever done, but I think I'm really ready.

Thank you to olds45512 for starting this thread and giving me some motivation.

I've never been a smoker, but have watched a few friends try and quit multiple times before finally kicking the habit. I wish you guys good luck, you can do it!

your welcome and thank you. Without this thing 3 days would be an eternity, I was telling my wife last night that I can't believe how well this works at controlling my need to smoke. I can't speak to the brand you bought but mine didn't say anything about it needing to stand up right but that's how I keep mine anyway, when I'm at work I leave it standing on the toolbox and when I'm in the truck its in the cup holder.

My 73 y/o coffee buddy(a smoker for over 50yrs) quit a couple months ago with help from a vaporizer, so it can be done! Good Luck all.

So after reading Yosemite Sam post about his vaporizer needing to stand upright I did a little test last night, I left my zig zag brand laying on its side all night while full and it didn't leak at all.

On the potential of vape pen leakage: it CAN happen, but really only under two circumstances. First, if you have a cheap pen that doesn't have a good seal between the chamber and the mouthpiece (or if you don't tighten it enough after refilling) it can leak that way. Second, on some of the better units, you are able to replace seals within the device. These seals, like ones on our Cubs, wear out and they can leak. Replace the seal, and voila, you're good to go again. I'll say this, I've never had mine leak and it goes through every angle you can think of throughout the day and has been dropped on more than one occasion and it still performs flawlessly. These little guys really are tough

24mg juice I don't think I've seen them that high around here, all ours usually top out at it 18mg (and I've got one of those juices, triple berry and it's yum yum).

As far as an "upright position", technically, most manufactures recommend keeping them upright but any unit worth it's weight won't mind being tumbled around. I try to keep mine upright when I'm not using it (like at night) but otherwise it's in my pocket all day keeping me company nad I don't think twice about it

The only time it could matter is when you are running low on juice. If you let it sit on its side or any position where the coil isn't exposed to the juice, you will taste an almost "burning" flavor as there is no juice to burn. If you get that, top it off or make sure you get the coil coated.

Also keep in mind guys that most of these things have coils that need to be replaced every so often

This is the pen I use:

Notice in the pic, inside the clear part, or the chamber, the string inside. That's part of the coil. Kind of like an old kerosene lamp, the string soaks up the juice to feed it to the coil. The string/coil is what's replaceable

Ok, enough post hogging by me, I'll fade into the background again
