Nice one @Dela Rey Steyn !
Am wondering what the Royale is like and how it compares with Tobacco #1 ?

Will wick a RTA tonight and give you some feedback tomorrow.
Looking forward!
So just a mini update. Had the lasst cancer stick around 14:00 and been on the Cue. Quite shocked that I made it so far lol. The biggest temptation was going out for dinner and after havin a proper Italian pasta that after meal cig was desired lol. After a few puffs I actually forgot about the stinkie or didn't crave it. Only one slight worry. In 7 hours I finished 3/4 of a new pod lol. Is that normal. I hope it ain't gona become a pod a day. Eeesh. Gona be eating 2 minute noodles haha
It's still a "new" play thing, it will settle down. Remember to do your regular vaping in between. A pod lasts me bout 3-4 days as my "nic-fix" between regular vaping. Good luck, the hardest part is the fight in your head, and having a positive attitude and the 'want' to quit is half the battle.
I'll take the pods and noodles any day.
Well done. And that's normal to vape the cue like that. We're all different and have different needs. I vape the cue like you did today and it normally lasts me two days and what you must also remember is your cravings will subside and you'll vape it less.
I mix my diy at 6mg so I get that lekker throat hit when I need it. It's a little hard to find 6mg commercial juice these days. Most juices are 3mg and I have seen 2mg and recently 1mg.
Sometimes I mix a 30ml bottle at 9mg and drip a drop or two on my RDA coils
And take short puffs of less than a second at nothing more than 35w.
Or drip or even fill a RTA with 9mg and vape at 15-20w .
It's what works for you that makes it normal.
And you have made it this far,use that as motivation. If you haven't touched a stinkie yet why should you do it now and every day it will get easier.
Congrats and Good luck bro.
So far it's winner for me @Silver. The Coffee and tobacco blends beautifully and the fruity nuances are slight yet a very welcome addition to the profile.
@klipdrifter , Read this, Hopefully some insight. Day 4 today going strong with the cue. I even tried my RDA a few times but the high Nic throat hit from the Cue is working like a boss. Using the Tobacco Pod, Finished that so i am on the Polar mint Pod now, So i will be back at the Twisp stand today to stock up on the Tobacco Pods and try the latest popular Cue Pod, Mango Ice
Thanks @MrDeedz I will do. I have heard a few people off forum that suggested starting with and Pod device...
Its so weird how this Cue gives you a similar feel to a cancer stick, I smoked almost 30 Winston Reds a day not the flavored cancer sticks with popping balls in them so the Tobacco Pods work well.. k@k strong ciggie, When a Cue is purchased brand new it comes with 2 Pods, 1 Tobacco and 1 other Flavor. Twisp do stock the Smoother Pods with less a throat hit so seeing that your wife smokes a lighter ciggie, if you go with the Cue buy the smooth cue pod too if the ones that come in the box are too harsh. good luck and all the best
You are a CHAMP @MrDeedz ! The first 3 days are always the hardest, it can only go better from here. I fully agree with you, the hit and feel of a Cue with a tobacco pod is the closest thing to a Ciggie that you will ever get. Very happy it is working for you, keep up the good work! We are all rooting for you!
2nd Cue arrived. Backup sorted, cant rely on EishKOM.
Thank you @RenaldoRheeder for the kind gesture,
You are a legend of a man, Much appreciated,
I hope to PIF this to some one else that may need it on ecig in the future if I eventually do go back to Dripping. but at this point in time I'm enjoying them Cues lol

Mango Ice. Def a winner!
Mango Ice. Def a winner!
I think you convinced me @MrDeedz , will keep you posted on the progress
I wish I can get this in a 100ml bottle.Oooh this is very nice & refreshing. Dahem!
Mango Ice. Def a winner!
By far the best juice available in any pod form. And I vape tobacco's and desserts normally.
Glad to be of Service Sir, But let the wifey's 1st experience not be a bad one so pay the extra 45 bux and buy the weaker strength pod/s too just in case.
those are the "smooth" range.
Yeah if only Twisp can come up with a tasty Custard for the Cue,Something like Taruto, that would be magic
Need a quick 101 on the Cue please lol.
How do I know when the battery is fully charged? When the "e" is not flashing but just amber?
When I take a drag the "e" flashes, Does that mean the battery is low as my pod was almost finished as well?
How do you know when the battery is about to die?

On the older model Cue's the amber light would flash when the batt got low. The new ones turn red when the batt is low. The device is fully charged when there are no lights on.
U are legend, was a Mind Fug as I have 1 new and 1 old and didnt know WTF was going on LMAO
. makes sense, Damn so i have never charged it full till the light when off , oh craps haha
@MrDeedz
I started smoking whilst still at school, during the December holidays between (what was then) Standard 7 and 8. After school I tried multiple times to quit, but with little success.
My Mom was a smoker and she passed away on 31 January 2017 (after her third or fourth heart attack). My daughter was just over a month old when my Mom passed away. She would grow up without ever knowing her Grandmother and I realised that I had to quit if I were to see my daughter grow up and if I were to be a part of her life, but with my track record, I wasn't sure whether I would have much success.
In 2018 a colleague and friend allowed me to take a hit on his setup (correct me if I'm wrong with the date here @Hypersonic136
). A little while thereafter, I bought the exact same mod, but with a different RTA than the one he had. I got a Voopoo Drag with a Wotofo Bravo.
I tried my best, but was only able to alternate between vaping and smoking. I'd start my day off with a Stuyvesant Menthol (Boost) and a cup of coffee, and would have a couple of smokes during the course of the day and vaping in between. The wife often reminded me that I had wasted money on buying a vape setup whilst still smoking and complained more often than not about the way I smelled after having a smoke, which I can understand.
It took a long time for me to alternate between smoking and vaping during the day and only vaping at night, when I was at home with my wife and daughter.
On the evening of the 23rd of November 2019, we had a braai at my house with family members. It was a bit of bender and I had smoked more that evening than I had in a long time. I woke up the next morning, lungs hurting a bit, and decided that I was going to pick up my mod instead of my pack of smokes, or what was left of it.
Today marks the 68th day since I last had a smoke.
I clearly remember a comment my brother had made at yet another braai. It was about two weeks after I last had a smoke and I said to him that I missed the taste of a cigarette while sipping away on a "beverage"
I was definitely not intending on lighting up, but at that moment, I missed the taste.
He said "If you haven't had a smoke in two weeks, you'll only make an ass of yourself if you light up now". Since then I've had good days and bad days (like we all do), but every time I thought of how I missed the taste, or if I was in a stressful situation, or just plain stripped my moer, I thought of what my brother had said to me and, instead of lighting up, I grabbed a hold of my mod and puffed away.
Everybody is unique. For some, the change is easier than for others. For some, it takes a little longer to make the change than for others. Some relapse and others don't. To this day I can't tell you what exactly flipped the switch in my brain on that specific day, after more than a year of trying to quit. Maybe I was just gatvol, maybe it was just perseverance.
All I can say is that we are all here and we all share a common goal, to quit and to keep it that way for as long as we can. We're all human and chances are some of us will relapse at some point in time. I commend you for reaching out and trying your level best to quit.
This is an amazing community and I think I speak for everyone here when I say that we will always be here to support our brothers and sisters in our battle to quit. I don't care how many times you, or anyone else, has relapsed, a) don't be too hard on yourself, b) reach out and speak up for help/advice, c) perseverance is key!!
Keep doing what you're doing and let us know how it goes.
Regards.

Congratulations @NOOB , perseverance pays dividends! I think you eventually got to the point where a lot of people come to in trying to quit, it’s when you stop trying so hard and quit by accident. Great stuff and wishing you well on your vape only journey.@MrDeedz
