SUCCESS STORIES & VALIDATIONS

From Rich

Just wanted to drop you a note, I thought this vape thing was just a bunch of bull , till a few months ago when I saw one of your vids ..

I smoked for over 25 years, tried e-cigs, with no luck, then I found vaping, started with a ego, but after watching your vids I got a Young June Lava tube within two weeks …

Now I already have an assortment of tanks and starting on my tube collection ..

Thanks for being entertaining as well as informative, because no one wants to watch a seminar , you kept my attention long enough for me to actually learn something ..

Thanks..

Rich.

Mr Busardo,

I just wanted to take the time for thanking you for putting all this information out
there and making it available. You’ve helped me put down cigarettes – for good. In
exchange for a vapor.
Just to let you know how difficult and necessary it was to quit I’ll give you a
brief smoking history. I started when I was 16; and, being in the service
industry became a 2 pack a day smoker. Well 3 years ago I was a pedestrian and got
hit by a truck doing 60mph and while I survived and went through some other
changes I was left a paraplegic for life. My positive attitude and resilience led
me to become a volunteer counselor for other people in that situation. The fact
that my work history was driving a rig and working in the device industry meant I
had to go back to college at the age of 33 and move back in with my parents. ONLY
A LITTLE STRESSFUL. My fianc??, kids and the cigarettes were a great escape from
the stress. Not to mention I went to school for electrical engineering – why not
add more
Stress?
In any event I graduated in December and had a major surgery scheduled for the end
of February. That surgery and the week long hospital stay and the need to be off
the cigs
To heal faster meant that it was time to make the cigs go
Bye bye. So around October I went and got a blu-it sucked. Then I got a ego blister
pack-it sucked too; so, I got an eroll- it sucked more. Then I found ECF and your
website; which, led to my MVP2 and aerotank. The day I got the Aerotank and decent
juice was the day the cigs went in the trash!!!! Now I’m waiting for my Provari to
get here say after tomorrow!!!
Anyway thank you so much for having such aarge volume of info in one place and doing
some great, entertaining and informative reviews!!!
Quitting cigs was definitely one of the hardest things I’ve done and if it weren’t
for all this information put in ways I can understand I would be smoking my pallmall
light 100’s right now instead of RY4 from SmokeCignals!!!
Keep up the good work in some cases you really are saving some peoples lives! In my
case that’s not being dramatic!

From P.Matthew

Mr. Busardo , I have been watching all your Review and Vids for a month
now, and I enjoy all of them please keep them up and thank you for all
your hard work. You have been a great help to me on my Journey in
quitting smoking, I have been smoke free for a month now. When I
Decided that I needed to quit but didn’t know if I could I found a
e-cig review you did and made me really stop and think that this may
work. I was a 2 pack a day smoker for the past 25+ years and it feels
good to not be smoking. I have had many family members pass away from
cancer due to smoking. The Love of my life for the past 20 years is
suffering from cancer and it hurts me to know I don’t have much time
left on this world with her. She was my biggest inspiration on
quitting, I want to spend as much time with her as I can and be able to
be here for her.
I want to thank you from the bottom of my Heart for giving me the tools
and information I so desperately needed to help guide me in the right
direction, To help me regain my freedom from the chains of smoking.

Thank You Brother,
Sincerely , P.Matthew

Hey Phil,

As a fan of your reviews and your rants, I just wanted to say how sorry I am to hear
about the loss of your uncle Nick.

Back when I was a smoker roughly a year and a half ago, I was skimming through some
videos on YouTube on other methods of quitting smoking. I tried everything man…
gum, dip, patches, throwing away packs then hours after buying another… then I saw
a video of one of your reviews. as confused and ignorant as I was about e-cigs I
began watching some older videos of your reviews, which sparked an interest in them.
I went ahead and purchased a V2 kit. Quit smoking cold turkey. Since then, Vaping
and your reviews have been my life.

Now I’m working for Avail Vapor in Norfolk Va. Without making this a book. I never
thanked you for your reviews and other videos not only were you the door for me
into the vaping world, your reviews also make my job Much easier. I really hope one
day I can enjoy a vape with you at an event.

Thanks again,
Timothy

From Ray

Dear Phil,
I’m rather new to the vaping world but your videos have really helped a lot. I
started with a cheap volt 2 from Smokeless Image and thanks to your reviews have
just purchased a Vamo V5. I really want a provari but thats out of the budget for
now haha! I’ve been smoking since I was 16 (i’m 23 now) and thanks to vaping It’s
been almost 2 months since my last analog. I just wanted to message you and say
thank you for your honest opinions and insightful knowledge. If theres ever a Vaping
convention in Ohio and your there I’d love to buy you a drink! Haha.

From Nola

Hello … Wanted to thank you for your videos. As a ground floor “rookie”, your videos have educated me and blown away a lot of the newbie fog that comes with not knowing what I’m doing.

I probably watched your review of the Innokin SVD at least 8 times, until I better understood. Because of your video, I bought an SVD. When it arrived, I watched the video several more times and still had difficulty getting it to work. Thought I now knew what to do. Uh, no. LOL Eventually, I did (with watching yet again) and subscribing now, I love my SVD!!! I admit, it was a challenge to understand, as I’m no longer an “SYT” … Sweet Young Thing, but an older female. A lot of the fog has lifted.

You are the guru. At least in MY book you are. You offer such valuable information, even if we have to watch again and again, as I did. I’m now a “VSC” (Vaping Senior Citizen). Thank you not only for just the videos, but for your generosity, giving so much of your time to your viewers.

Vape on ….

From Daniel

Greetings from Luxembourg,

I stumbled upon your reviews while doing my research on everything ecigs a few weeks ago. I started vaping about 7 weeks ago and have not smoked a cigarette since then. I was a smoker for about 15 years now and I can honestly say that I do not regret it. I am really thankful for the reviews you put on YouTube, they are, in my opinion, the best I have come across. You go into detail and have a good camera, you are always in a good mood and funny. Most importantly though is the fact that you cover every important aspect of a reviewed item. It’s so good to watch your videos, I sometimes wish they were even longer.

You are a real inspiration to other people and have a real gift of being honest, thorough and entertaining in your reviews.

I just wanted to thank you for all the time you put into this and hope you keep on going because you make me happy and I trust your opinion.

Please take care 🙂
Daniel from Luxembourg

From Chris

just wanted to thank you for putting this much information out there about
vaping. i quit smoking with a pro tank 2 like 5 months ago now and i could not be
happier especially with all the advice that your website puts out. definitely have
had quite a few upgrades in the past due to advice mostly gained from watching your
reviews. but once again just wanted to thank you for all of your advice and
guidance.

Phil,

I am so glad I got there in time to meet you. I work in the car business (finance),
so it is very difficult to leave early on the busiest day of the week but thanks to
the weather I convinced the boss to let me go an hour early. You have no idea how
you have changed my life. I had smoked cigarettes since I was in high school
(somewhere in the late 80’s), and was up to around, or more than a pack a day with
no sight in end. One day my wife brought home some crappy ego (she was told ego,
later found out clones) kit for like $30, that had 2 batteries, two ce4, and a
charger. I had no idea what or how to work it. I ended up ruining one of them
because I didn’t know how to fill them. I actually had the wicks out of the clearo
before I figured out how to get it working. She also had some juice that was
supposed to be like a Marlboro Light, that tasted gross. It really bothers me when I
hear that the e-cig industry is targeting kids because they have so many tasty
flavors. If it wasn’t for the flavors and we we were stuck with Marlboro and menthol
flavors we would all just go back to smoking. Speaking of flavors, it was so funny
to hear that you loved the Hurricane Vapors Pineapple Cheesecake. I just started
vaping it all day before you did that review and still do. They have some great
juices (and some pretty bad ones, lol).

Anyways, shortly after the 1st kit my wife bought I ended up at DFW Vapor and since
they didn’t really help me I ended up buying another ego battery (not variable) and
some Kanger EVOD tanks. They worked alright but I wanted more so I got an ego VV
device and it was bettter but stil not enough. My next one was a ZMax which was ok
but the fire button kept messing up so I bought an Innokin VTR, which lasted 7
months before the threads stripped. So I switched to Mech Mods and Kayfuns thanks to
your reviews. I have been looking forward to Zen’s ZNA but I am hesitating because I
haven’t seen a review from you yet and I have heard the Kayfun won’t even fit close
to flush.

I watch other reviewers but too many of them review high end mods most people can’t
afford and or are exotic builds most people don’t have time to do. I rely on your
reviews because they look at it from a regular vaper, and are very detailed. You are
by far the main person that helped me learn about vaping and not only helped me stay
off cigarettes but also helped me find a new hobby.

So Thank You, thank you very much for helping not only me but my wife also to stay
off cigarettes. We have been smoke free for months (me almost a year now coming up
in June). I go to sleep not having to breath through my mouth because I don’t have a
hard time getting enough air through my nose now. I don’t wake up not coughing up a
lung and feeling like shit anymore. I can taste my food and drinks again, and most
important I have added many many years to my wife’s life and mine, thanks to you.
Keep doing what your doing.

It was great meeting you and I hope we can keep in touch.

Thanks
Brett

I just want to say thank you to you for all that you do I could only imagine how
inundated you are with running a full time website and all the great videos that you
make and have to edit. Just a little history so you will understand my question.
At 15 started chewing (all the cool kids did it when we played baseball). Then after
high school the girls didn’t really like kissing someone who chewed so switched to
stinks. Fast forward 21 years of smoking Marb lights about a pack every other day.
Tried to quit many times think of it I tried it patch,gum chantix. No bueno. Go
back to this past Christmas my 11 yr old daughter tells me daddy I know you have
tried your hardest but can please try again I think I found something for you. She
brings the iPad over and shows me 1 of your YouTube vids. I was curious so after
all the festivity sided I grabbed the iPad and sat in bed and watched 6 hours worth
of your videos. I was sold, waited for my daughter to get up and I told her
today’s the day that I will put the stinkys behind me. Found a couple of brick and
mortar shops looked around and to just check out what they had and how competitive
there prices were. Well after a few hours into our adventure I had bought a few
things all based from your recommendation Innokin MVP v2, also the vv/vw v3 and the
aspire tanks. Got it home put the tanks together filled them up I am now 76 days
stinky free.
