Category: Success Stories

When deciding on, or curious about anything relative to vaping your
video’s have been more than effective in describing the pro’s and con’s
of devices, along with a lot of info others do not cover.. all while
remaining entertaining and enjoyable to watch. I’m not mailing to ask
any questions, or even need a reply.. just wanted to thank you for the
helpful information & reviews you provide, researching these devices and
knowing what they are really like are two very different things (in my
opinion) and your work has helped bridge that gap. thanks again.

Hello Phil,

My name is Denis and I am a new vapor since 4 weeks today. I started watching
videos on youtube like yours and Dimitris (I sent 2 emails to Dimitris but did not
receive any answer back ). I wanted to let him know that I believe he is doing a
very good job with all the warnings about what your Government is doing with vaping.
What is going to happen in U.S. will bounce back in Canada for sure.

I watched your videos and they are great. They are very good and funny as well. It
helped me to determine what device I wanted to try. I started with the egrip from
Joyetech and it is now my travel device. I bought recently the Istick 50W with the
Kanger sub tank mini and really like it. Now, I would like to have another sub tank
in order to vape more around 40 watts (with the Kanger mini, even if I build my own
coil, I can’t vape over 25 watts without having a burned taste )

I want to tank you for what you do. I believe you help alot of people to quit
smoking tobacco cigarette, starting with me. I am helping my brother in law and
sister in law to quit smoking as we speak. My brother in law dropped from 35
cigarettes per day to 5. He still struggle in the morning and after dinner but he is
getting there.

Please keep doing what you do, the way you do it. Great job!

Denis

Hey Phil,
I know you’re probably overwhelmed with emails these days and wont be hurt if i don’t receive a response from you.
I just wanted to take a moment to thank you as i do every year for being integral to my success with quitting smoking 3 years ago today.
I found you about 3yrs ago when i was trying to learn how to rebuild my vivi nova heads. I, like you, was thrilled by the vivi when it first came out! My how far we’ve come! Since, i have evolved with the industry, started my own business wholesaling eliquid (Which is now distributed across 7 states) with the goal of providing the perfect flavor to get someone off the stinkies!
I love your style of review and all the detailed information you provide. Since I’ve found your website and youtube channel, I miss nothing you produce. I’m looking forward to the opportunity to meet you at some point in the near future. Perhaps the ECC in Chattanooga.
I would lovethe opportunity to share my eliquid with you as a token of my appreciation, not for review or for opinion or promotion, but simply as my way of saying thank you to a dear friend on this road to better health through vaping rather than smoking.
In closing, i just want to thank you again for all you do for the vaping community. Your advocacy, your reviews, your passion. Thanks for sharing so much time focusing on this industry, thank your wife for me as well for giving up time with her husband so you can be so detailed in your reviews and interviews. Im so glad she finally quit smoking! Thanks Phil!

Kind Regards,
Matt

Just started vaping after being a 20 yr smoker, just wanted to say your
site has been so helpful. Searched all over for info now i can’t stop watching you.
LOL!
Thank You
Sincerely Doug

Hi there Phil, I hope this finds you doing well.

I took delivery today of my new VaporFlask V2.1 Blackout Edition. This is such a
huge improvement over my iPv mini that I am at a loss for the words to describe it.
I wanted to take a moment to thank you for your videos. Your experience, along with
your expertise in the field of knowing what ex-smokers are looking for, led me down
the path to making this purchase.

I have now been cigarette free for more than 3 months after smoking for 30 years!
Keep up the great work, and enjoy this holiday weekend.

Happy Easter,

Richard

Rather you are aware, you are my go to person/website before I purchase
most of my vaping supplies. I find your reviews to be right on target, & I
appreciate all you have done for us. A big, huge THANK-YOU from the bottom of my
heart, to my now clear 30 years of past smoking lungs! I was hoping so very very, I
mean very much hoping I’d be able to meet you, shake your hand, & say thank-you in
person at the Niagara Falls (ECC) show coming up this next weekend. I don’t see
where you have listed intentions of attending. I understand Easter weekend is hard
on all, but us vapor peeps in WNY need a ton of support as well. We are also being
crushed by the tobacco industry’s lobbyists, as they could care less as long as they
get a chunk of change in their pockets. I cannot travel long distances as I have a
very bad back. Hope to one day meet you in person. Thank you again for all your
wonderful advice & reviews. Kind regards & vape on!

just wanna say I love your website and reviews I get tons of information
everyday from it and have learned so many things I didn’t know. ive sorta became a
vape enthusiast partly because of it. between yours and the other popular ones I
wanna keep learning more about products and safety etc. As well as what I can do to
be involved cause its became a big part of my life for the better hopefully.
Hopefully vaping doesn’t get shut down by the greedy govt who really don’t care
about our health is obvious. I also would like to know more about the conventions
and stuff and things like that that I can be apart of. thanks keep up the good work
and ill keep reading.

Hey Phil,
My name is Mark and I’m from Hamilton, Ontario. Right across the lake. I just wanted
to write a thank you note. I’m BRAND new to vaping. About a month ago I caught the
need to join the vape community, so I decided to check out some reviews and tips and
beginners guides and what-have-you. Your reviews always popped up first, so I got to
watching. They are very comprehensive, highly informative, and they accurately and
unbiasedly present the pros and cons of whatever device you may be featuring. So
after a few weeks of mulling over the flood of information and careful consideration
I decided to go with the Kanger Kbox with a Subtank Nano on it. I know this may not
be the traditional beginner set up, but with your reviews I felt that the ease of
use and the fact that the mod is basically built for the subtank I think it may turn
out to be a fruitful venture. I’d like to just thank you again for the knowledge and
inspiration. Keep up the good work.
Thanks,
Mark

Phil,
I just wanted to thank you for your work and let you in on another success story.
I was a 2 pack a day Marlboro red smoker. I had always said quitting was easy I
did it a hundred times. Patches, gum, cold turkey, even Chantix nothing worked and
the urge to light up was always there. Even though I worked as a Pulmonary
Function Tech measuring smoking effects on others and myself I was hopelessly
hooked. About four years ago I tried a minimart Ecig but it had little effect. I
did some research and bought V2 cigs online yet even those replaced only a few
analogs and left me thinking of lighting up. About six weeks ago I went into a
local vape shop and picked up a MVP mini 70watt a Aspire Nautilus and Kanger Nano
tanks along with a couple of juices. That was on a Saturday, on Sunday I simply
stopped smoking. I didn’t quit as I had before with the thought or planning, I
just stopped without the desire to light up. After just a few day the reduction of
CO in my blood was like getting a new lease on life. The swells and tastes coming
back are an added pleasure
Shortly after stopping while gathering as much information on the art and science
of vaping as I could I found your videos and then this site. I have gathered more
info here than from all the others combined. Your videos are entertaining and very
informative. Your impressions are close to my own experiences and the technical
info is a welcome change from so many reviews based on opinions alone.
I have since added 3 Kanger sub minis to my tank collection and a dripper for
those times I want a stouter hit. I am rebuilding all my own attys experimenting
with resistance and power and have build a carry case out of an old day planner to
carry all the tanks and a few accessories to work with me allowing me to rotate
through juices throughout the day. I have locked down favorite juices for three
tanks now ( Castle Long, a blend of Gambit and $100 Apple Pie, and a local shops
coffee blend) and am working through others to find favorite for the other two.
When I read your opinions on the 5 pawns favorites of mine I decided to give your
shout out list a try. Though I have to admit I don’t seem to have your affinity
for peach.
You mentioned how you worried about leaving out assumed knowledge on some subject
thinking those new to vaping would lack understanding on the matter. I found
going back over 3 years of videos I could gain that base and watch the evolution
of the tech. So keeping the older stuff available and chronological was a great
help.
In conclusion though your videos may not have effected my first purchase they have
help filled a need for knowledge I have. So Thank You very much Sir and keep up the
good work!

When I get down, this brings me right back up. Thanks so much for sharing Chris and to all the others who have shared their stories as well! Vape Happy everyone!
