A lovely and welcomed letter from Jennifer. THANK YOU 
From Jennifer Mckinley,
Hi Phil,
I just wanted to drop you a quick line to say thank you! You have changed my life. You and Dimitri seem so down lately, and I just wanted you to say you are having an effect on people and you still are helping people.
I just discovered you probably about two months ago. I had sort of been watching YouTube reviewers looking for good starter vapes and things like that for the last little while and then I started to delve deeper into yours because something just resonated with me.
I started smoking when I was 12 or 13 and I’m the same age as you so it’s been a while.
Since Covid started my smoking had doubled. I was working from home and home all the time. It was just getting to the point where I was scared. I was wheezing I was just not breathing right, and I just didn’t feel well. My boss had talked to me about how she had quit through vaping so in February 2021 I decided to go into a vape store. Not sure why but they’ve always been intimidating. I probably should’ve done a bit of research before I went in not after, but I was recommended a pod system. I can’t remember exactly how it went but I think I might have used it for a week and then I went back to smoking.
Don’t think I even looked at it again till end of September early October. I know it was around Canadian Thanksgiving I was vaping. I’m not gonna bore you with the whole rest of the story but from then to now there’s been a lot of frustration! There’s been a lot of going back to smoking again even and a couple more devices, lots of juice! Even went to salt nic (once I’m done with what I have, I’m going back to regular nicotine) and a lot of bad advice from vape stores.
Somewhere in all of that is when I found you and Dimitri. I will admit that I spent pretty much all of Christmas Day and Boxing Day and even today watching all your old videos. It blows my mind that you and Dimitri still understand what it’s like to begin vaping and the issues we have and that you really get it and relate to it.
The device it finally did get me to quit smoking was essentially a mod with a tank (not Innokin sorry). I wish I hadn’t been so afraid of these types of devices in the beginning, it might’ve changed things. Might not have had to go through everything I did to get where I am today. But I’m so grateful I stuck with it and found you guys.
I still need to do a little bit of fine-tuning. Once I’m all done my salt nic, like I said, I will get regular nicotine.
Something both of you had said on one of your older shows made me kind of go huh. I think I’ll get you higher nic for during the day and in the morning, and lower nicotine dessert type vapes for in the evening.
I love my little pink mod, it’s easy and has an integrated battery so it’s just kind of simple. I know eventually I will upgrade but for now this is perfect.
I did pick up a Kroma Z today as you can never have too many good devices. I will say it’s very hard to find Innokin here in Ottawa right now. And I am somewhat picky about my colours which sounds stupid but I am. So they did have one white Kroma Z at a good vape store that I found. Just a cheap and easy way to get into Innokin until more supply finally gets back in the stores here in Canada.
I know it’s scary for vaping right now! I’m scared I don’t know what’s going to happen and I just discovered this. But don’t stop being you! You are making a difference… you are helping people! You changed my life and I am so grateful and thankful so thank you, thank you, thank you.🙏
Happy New Years and all the best in 2022!!Jennifer
