Phil,
I’d like to take a moment to thank you for all of the help you’ve provided through
your reviews. It has certainly helped me make early vaping decisions and when funds
become more available has given me ideas as to what I would like to upgrade to soon.
Your reviews are not only informative, but extremely entertaining.

Been off cigarettes since June 2012 and feeling great!

Best wishes to you from Chicago, Illinois!

Sincerely,

Nick

From Steve

Phil,

Just wanted to drop you a “Thanks” for your site & videos. I am 55 and have been
smoking since … well, I really can’t remember, I think I was 6 when my older
brothers first included me in smoking on the side of the house! 🙂 I smoked about 2
packs/day and tried everything to quit – Patches – Couldn’t keep them lit!, gum –
Yuck, cold turkey – AHHHHH, Chantix – nausea, that’s a good incentive! Oh yea, then
an original e-cig about 3 years ago that was terrible, and they got my credit card
and starting shipping refills – WTF!

A few weeks ago I started trolling e-cig sites and ran into a few of your YouTube
videos – Ok, maybe 20+ of them! Armed with “some” knowledge, Two weeks ago I
dropped by a local e-cig shop and bought a EGo twist, a Vivi Nova Mini (I have no
idea what version!) and some horrible juice. I have found a few juices I like fairly
well, but still searching for nirvana.

Over the past 2 weeks I have smoked maybe a pack of cigs total, and today was my
first day with NONE! … and I am actually happy! 🙂 AND going broke buying e-cig
stuff, but saving a butt load not buying cigarettes.

From your reviews I upgraded to a ProVari and a Vivi Nova 2.5 – I am VERY pleased
with this setup. I prefer the 1.8 ohm at about 4.5-4.8 volts, tried the 2.4 & 2.8
but can’t get the same taste.

Anyway – thanks for your contributions and your help!

My next challenge is converting my Wife – any suggestions?

From Eddie

Dear Mr. Busardo,

My name is Eddie G. and as the new year rolled in I wanted to start 2013 with the
resolution to stop smoking. I didn’t know where to begin or look, so I made a quick
google search and found your videos. In the first two days of research, I had
watched about 20 of your videos, went on this website, and took your
recommendations. Not only were you very informative, but also very enjoyable.

As I took your advice and started my new hobby, I have been analog-free for a couple
weeks, now am starting to convert friends and families. Guess where I direct them
to? That’s right, your videos.

They all agree that you do an excellent job describing the equipment and juices.

If I have an urge for a cigarette, I just watch one of your videos and read the
disclaimer in the beginning telling me to try anything to stay off the bad stuff. I
just wanted to take some time and show you my appreciation for helping me learn more
about vaping.

You are doing a great service and I hope you keep up the great work for years to come.

From a new lifelong fan, Eddie

From Ron

Hey Phil. I’ve been vaping for a week tomorrow. I got turned on to it buy a
new coworker. Lucky me. I was a solid pack a day smoker, and much like yourself
started at the age of 17, I’m now 43. I quit for about 5 years and picked it back up
again. Stupid me. My wife has been trying to get me to quit for several years now
and as a non smoker, doesn’t really understand how hard it is. Well thanks to my new
coworker I found vaping. I am one of those people that will dive right into
something new, that I feel worth checking out. I immediately found your reviews and
am now a huge fan. After evaluating my available financial resources, my needs &
wants in PV and watching many of your reviews. I decided to go with out to the only
local B&M store near me, E-Six in Branford, CT. Based on your reviews I chose to go
with a Joyetech Ego C Twist, and bought a 650mah and 1000mah. I topped those with
the only clearomizers they had in stock at the time a Kanger T2 and a ReDux. I went
with some Juice recommendation I found on ECF, Apple Select & Maple Select and am
now enjoying an analog free life style, with a minimal investment. I just wanted to
say thanks for all your great work. I am thoroughly entertained with every review I
watch, and also am learning a lot. I personally feel that the contributions you have
made to the community have truly made a difference in my life and helped me get on
track to a healthier life style. I have never met you and we have never spoken, but
I consider you a friend and a great source of support in my effort to give up
smoking. I look forward to more of your future reviews and to learning a lot more
about vaping.
Thank You,
Sincerely,
Ron

From Andrew

Dear PBusardo,

Thank you so much for all your effort and careful work that goes into
tasteyourjuice.com. It truly must be a labor of love. You have become an invaluable
resource to the vaping community and you truly deserve your Guidetovaping award.

In particular, thank you for your hardware recommendations. The thorough,
well-balanced and thoughtful reviews are a boon to new vapers like me who don’t have
the money or the time to try out every new device on the market. I have been vaping
on and off since the beginning when there was primitive hardware but was only fully
able to make the switch in the last 6 months when the hardware solutions started to
fully flourish and give me something that met my needs.

I am a Clearo vaper, due to the ease of use and quick ability to switch flavors
without multiple tanks or the continuous effort of a drip atty. I had tried many,
all with limited success, until I tried your recommendation of the Kanger T3. The
result has been pure vaping enjoyment, I never get the leaking of CE4’s and it very
rarely floods. Even when it does, its a bottom coil so its easy to unscrew it and
blow it out even when the juice is inside. This is a solution that works for me.

I am trying to turn a friend onto vaping and I was really worried there wasn’t a
plug-and-play solution for those looking for a convenient, hassle-free Clearo. Now
I’m very positive he will make the switch. I find the benefits of vaping to be
enormous, not only is there a HUGE reduction in inhaled chemicals, but also the odor
of a cigarette goes away! No one ever complains about my vaping at coffee shops and
it has done wonders for my marriage. Wonders.

I strongly enjoy vaping and strongly suggest it to any smoker looking for these
benefits.

Keep up the good work, and “I’ll see ya again soon”!

Sincerely,
Andrew

From Gerald

Hey, I wanted to say thanks for your information, I just started vaping
after smoking two packs a day for about the last 20 plus years…for me it is one
day at a time, been two weeks without “analog cigs”, my wife says that is a miracle.
Your videos have been very helpful; I appreciate your entertainment on the videos.
I work in corporate training, I always appreciate the guys that “get it” and use
humor and knowledge to engage people in the topic, you do that very well. Thanks
again, I will keep watching, Be safe!

From Bruce

I have been off analogs for at least 4 years but spent much of those battling inferior e-cigs, from the mall bought variety up to the EGO-C, but stuck with them to stay off the deadly smoke. Poor to awful taste, leakage galore, and constant flooding made it a chore. I just knew there was a better solution but had no where to get the knowledge. Within the last few months I discovered your very informative videos and it has been much like an epiphany. I knew there must be a better way and you helped me find it. Now armed with top of the line equipment and juices and I am a HAPPY VAPOR! I have helped numerous friends get off the coffin nails and will continue to do so. Even my Doc loved that I did this and gave me two thumbs up!

Anyways, you have made it possible for me to finally get the right equipment and I love it!

Your new year’s Beginner’s Guide went far beyond that and was greatly appreciated!

Thanks and Regards,

~R. Bruce

From Frank

Hello Phil,

I just started vaping on December 14th at 4pm and you have been instrumental in
helping me get up and running. There is so much information out there and I was
overwhelmed. I am 40 years old and started smoking at 16 which has left me with
emphysema and copd so I needed to quit before I ended up on an oxygen tank or worse.
After trying Chantix, Wellbutrin, patches, gums, and even chewing tobacco, I could
not kick the habit. I enjoy the act of smoking, plain and simple. Vaping has given
me the ability to quit smoking cigarettes and satisfy my former urge to smoke.

Based on your reviews I decided to grab a Lavatube 2.0 and overall have enjoyed the
unit. It is a little buggy and I am still learning but I have not had a cigarette
since I got it. The only problems I have now is that I want a Provari, more ejuices
to sample, and someone to open a store near me in NJ. I would rather have these
problems than health related ones any day.

Please keep the reviews coming and keep up the great work, and thanks man!

From Gary

love your video reviews! I am in NY also (near Binghamton). Dec 17th will
mark 2 years for me off cigarettes. I have several mods as well as a 510 kit (saving
as a backup). I also have 2 eGo1000ma batteries. They been working for me for almost
2 years now but they are getting old so I just purchased 2 eGo twist batteries. Have
not used them much yet but like the liitle I have vaped with them.

I was a smoker for 38 years and tried to quit many times during that time. I tried
the patch, the gum, and the drugs…….none worked and the drugs made me feel
strange so I stopped them (Wellbutrin). I purchased an ecig because I was wowed by
the idea of an electric cigarette…..just had to try one! I had no intentions of
quitting smoking…..it just happened!

My doctor is VERY happy with my results. I have PKD (kidney disease) and she had
been wanting me to quit forever! My blood pressure dropped and the docs had to
change my meds! I did not realize how much the cigarettes were affecting me! I have
cut back the nicotine to 6mg. I am a musician and singer and have seen my vocal
range increase and the strength of my voice increased.

Keep doing your very entertaining reviews! You are good at it.

I have a Youtube page if you wanna hear an oldfart play guitar and sing.

I can’t work so I got serious about music. Used to work in the engineering field.
Math! Music is math….so it was a natural swap! I own 9 guitars now and make music
with many friends.

Thanx again for your videos!
