Hi guys just wanted to let you all know I've managed to convert my brother in law He seems very fascinated by all the gadgets & gizmos And is enjoying vaping so far, As I have a new mod I gave him 2 x ego 650mah batteries 1 x charger 1x carto tank with carto 1x plinth 1x carry case 1x drip tip 1x20ml tutti frutti e-juice I thought a carto tank was a good place to start as they are hassle free and no messing around They were only sitting in my kit and I thought it would be a great idea as he has been trying to give up smoking for some time with the NHS's terrible and costly "NRT" I've only been vaping myself for 4 months and I've came a long way since like the rest of you. I hope he stick to it and the more people I can convert the happier ill be and their pockets too *eventually* Thanks Bernard *happy vaping*

Nice one.
Good idea for us all, when we upgrade to clean and rewick our old stuff ready to pass on when somebody shows an interest.

Great work Bernard. For 90% of the people that are prepared to try it, they convert. A lot of my work colleagues have done so, simply by realising how easy it has been for me. I'm now flaunting a MVP at work, and everyone wants to know where they can get one. When I tell them I've saved £2k in less than 1 year, and with no cravings whatsoever, they are prepared to at least try it. Go forth and multiply... in the nicest sense!

That's fantastic Bernard , bet he's chuffed to bits with the kit you gave him. Good on you, hope he's "lovin the vapour" and keeps it going. Yes, it's a great feeling converting someone, my workmates kept asking me "what the heck is that??" and when i explained and let 'em have a vape on my ego/iclear16, they were amazed and impressed, and all ended up buying kits/supplies (they wanted the same as i have) and they happily vape away now, out of the 4 there's one who still smokes smelly cigs, but she's cut down quite a lot.

Congratulations to you Bernard, there's nothing quite like your first ' conversion ' . . . plus it's quite nice to have someone to be able to talk to and compare thoughts on equipment and eliquid. Rather than doing everything cyberly as enjoyable as that is. Hope your BIL gets on well.

Perhaps if your Dad sees how well you are both doing then that may give him the incentive to try himself Bernard.

Just try and persuade him on the financial side and the pounds saved can make such a difference to his life, and to the lives of his kids, and with NO sacrifice whatsoever, in fact it's a better experience.

She lit a cig up and i was vaping lovely strawberry and kiwi while we had a breather on a day out last week. I only said to her, "this juice is pure nectar, wanna try" well, you'd have thought i'd put a dish of maggots under her nose, her face was just pure revulsion, lol. Strange, but true.
