Tamara T
I quit smoking cigs in 2010. I figured after 5 years of being away from them I would be ok. No. 2015 I began smoking again. FIVE YEARS. So, I decided to jump on board this vaping thing. Oh yes! I found what was going to keep me off cigarettes! Within 6 weeks, I was feeling so much better (I have been a smoker since 1981). My lungs felt more clear. I could breathe again. AND I SMELLED BETTER. The flavored juices are the best. It keeps us from craving KILLER CIGS. I smelled better and my mouth tasted better for kisses. I tried the tobacco flavor, however, it just made me want cigs again. This ban MUST STOP!!! Flavors do NOT matter. I was 10 and started with cigarettes. I would prefer they don’t smoke, but if my kids chose cigs, I would get them on vapes. They are NOT what the media tries to tell you they are. DO YOUR RESEARCH before our kids find cigarettes. And they will. I am a consumer. I am not paid to say these things.

Miahcahla Phillips Haley
I have smoked for 31 years and bought a new vape 1/12 years ago and flavored juice at a location that uses all-natural ingredients in their juice including the chemical that is used in inhalers For a simple example, most vape liquid uses propylene glycol – a completely harmless chemical that also makes asthma inhalers work – to suspend and deliver the flavorings. I went from 2 1/2 packs a day =21 packs a week (Marlboro Full Flavor) (AKA Cowboy Killers) down to 3 cigarettes a day to this current day. I cough less, have fewer asthma attacks, sleep better because I can breathe, and am a lot more active. I thank Vapes for this progress to being almost completely free of cigarettes.
Daniel (FreakLowClouds)
My name is Daniel, known as FreakLow. I am a Brazilian naturalized from Brazil. I smoked cigarettes for 17 years and it was 17 years critical… I had low blood pressure, lack of appetite, frequent bouts of blackouts during the day… Just like other critical cases! After I got to know the steam everything changed in my life… Food, coughs decreased 90% today with a reduction of damage by almost 100% in my life
Scott Wickman
I have not quit cigarettes entirely but I’ve gone down from 3 cartons a month to about half a carton a month. And this is only because I was able to find flavors I liked right off the bat. I have tried to convince my mom, several times, but she doesn’t like all the flavors, so eventually I found her just a regular menthol that she says she likes and finally she’s using it more often. It all boils down to the flavors and if states are banning then, people like me would not find the sweet creamy flavors that we love. I’d rather go back to regular cigarettes than use a non flavored vape. But I don’t understand, before we start banning stuff everywhere, why are we not doing heavy testing on it?
Chanelle
After years of smoke cigarettes, 10 + years, I started to have high blood pressure and swelling. I also hated the smell of cigarettes. I decided to change to vaping. Not only has my swelling gone down and my blood pressure but also my lungs sound much better. I had been seeing to doctors often because of my health problems and now I only go in for check ups and other things. Vaping changed my life for the better.
gill weidner
I have been a smoker of 2 packs a day for over 30 years and have just now started vaping. i now smoke at most 6 cigs a day and vape the rest of the day. I use to use my as ma inhaler 4 to 5 times a day now i don’t use it but maybe 1 time a week ( my doc is blown away). I use to wake up coughing so bad it would make me sick now i never wake up coughing and i now can smell everything. vaping has made my life so much better in such a short time i wonder what 3 month mark will change. I hope there is a way to help all this bans and stuff government thinks they are doing to help us. I appreciate everything you are doing and if there is anything I can do to help let me know

Vaping helped me and 5 of my closest friends and family stop smoking cigarettes.. I breath better and smell better, I do not want to go back to smoking cigarettes but a ban may force me to
Jason
I’m a 51 year old that smoked since I was 13. Two months ago a friend introduced me to vaping. Within a week of vaping I no longer smoked a cigarette nor had any desire to. Vaping finally did what what other smoke cessation product could and that was to end my addiction to cigarettes. It is sad how we were told for years to quit and when we finally have a safe way to do it, the government decides to use children once again to destroy hope for future smokers to kick the habit. I am forever grateful to that friend and my local smoke shop for the new life they gave me!
Kelly
I am at 38 year old woman that likes the taste of candy flavored vape up until recently I haven’t had a problem shipping great deals online to my house. Now I cannot find one online store that will ship to my address or any other address I put in. I am furious. Now I have no way to get my e-juice. I used to smoke cigarettes now I cannot stand the smell of them and do not like to be around them. This is just a way for the government to make more money it is not stopping underage smoking if anything it’s making it worse by making younger people smoke their own concoctions that makes them sick. No I don’t agree with underage smoking I don’t see this solving the problem charging another 20 or so dollars to get my product. The online vape stores do a pretty good job checking my information and making me show ID through their website. As adults should have a way to access what we want without having to pay extreme amounts of money to get it.
Patrick Emry
I went from smoking 1 to 2 and a half packs of cigs a day to vaping at 6mg, for the first time in years I can breathe I can walk without getting out of breath , vaping is the best decision and after trying gums, patches Chantix its the only thing that is worked, my next step is to decrease to 3mg it is taking longer but I had to find the solution that worked for me, taking vaping away would be devastating.
Marissa
I was a heavy smoker for about ten years. Because of this I ended up with asthma and continued to smoke years after, and my asthma was terrible. I did end up quitting, but whenever I was around anyone with cigarettes I started smoking again. Ever since I started vaping I don’t even think about picking up a cigarette and my asthma has been better than ever for the past 5 years. Rarely do I need to use my inhaler. I can even do more physical activities that I couldn’t when I was a smoker.
Walter Kell

Jennifer Lang
I started smoking when I was 13 years old. Every morning I would wake up hacking from smoking cigarettes. I switched to vaping 5 years ago. I no longer hack in the morning, my clothes don’t smell, and my house smells better. Most of all I feel a thousand times better. I can breath again. If vaping is taken from me I know eventually I will go back to smoking. I really don’t want this to happen. Thank you for reading this
Nate
Beyond eliminating my use of cigarettes, I’ve come to love vaping. The Different flavors to to try, and the daily routine of it has brought Some well deserved enjoyment to my day. This is now being robbed from me and others like me. This cannot go unchallenged. It is our bodies, and our choice to make. Thank you.
Bortel
I’m a 21 year old nicotine JUUL user. I have had one cigarette ever and never plan on smoking them in my life. The fact is that JUUL and other vape alternatives to cigarettes are what we need. People who are going to get hooked on nicotine are going to get hooked on nicotine. Raise the age to 21 to make it harder for teens to get a hold of. It’s much easier for a teen to get JUUL pods from a friend who’s a senior. But not when you need to be 21. Obviously we don’t want kids vaping for any reason, but to think that adults can’t make their own decision to vape mint or even mango pods? That’s an outrageous statement to say the least. By banning these flavors you basically cut off anyone who vapes from their “drug of choice.” Coffee is extremely addictive and appeals to kids but we don’t ban that. I think that it just needs to be harder to get these flavored juices and pods, and not punish those who use them and twist their arm to push them, and these addicted kids back into the hands of big tobacco. We want to eradicate tobacco and cigarettes, the world is changing and everyone in power is afraid of it. Don’t be YOURE banning the wrong stuff.
April Roberts
I have been vaping for three years and that is what helped me quit smoking. I currently vape 6mg of nicotine and when I started vaping, I vaped 18mg of nicotine. Cigarettes are way more harmful and full of cancer causing chemicals. The government needs to quit being ignorant and leave vapers alone.
brandi boyer
vaping helped me quit smoking in as little as2 weeks..Smoking cigs now the smell is aweful and they taste even worse..tho im no fan of fruit flavored e juice I prefer the reg tobacco flavor I give my utmost applause and basicalll m life to thanking vape companies for helping me quit smoking.cigareetes and alcohol have been top killers for many many years yet the government and the truth of why they really want to ban vaping is simple,tobacco companies are losing millions going outta business cuz everyones ge3tting smart to save their own lives and the gov. is losing millions in gained tax revenue from people switching over to vaping.now they want to ban it or eventually start taxing it as bad as they have cigarettes over the years.its f-ing sad this corrupt ass gov.has to always get their hands into everything to control society.they take anything good and turn it against us to benefit and profit themselves.we are becoming a policed nation already with drones.whats next?
Jeremy
I started smoking cigarettes when I was 24 years old, I did not do it to be cool, I used it as an anti-depressant and a stress reliever. I am in my mid 30s now. I have tried to quit smoking cigarettes before and it was impossible. If I did not buy a pack cigarettes were thrown at me by fellow smokers. I started vaping 6 months ago, Coffee flavored e-liquid from a shop in eastern Oregon. I have not bought a pack nor smoked a cigarette since. Finally after years of trying to find an alternative to quit tobacco, I was able to quit instantly by switching to flavored e-liquid. I am healthier, able to run again, I do not have that nasty smoke smell anymore that stains my car and my clothes. I am able to save money every month because I am not buying a pack of cigarettes every single day. I also have my lungs back, and not coughing every morning when i wake up til something shakes loose. I felt like I was dying with every Cigarette after 10 years and finally because of vaping I feel better than I ever have.
Matt Howell
I smoked for 30 years,tried quitting multiple times and failed.When I found out about vaping it changed my life.
In 2015 I started vaping loaded glazed donuts ejuice and NEVER went back to smoking.Vaping flavored ejuice has changed my life,thank you Ruthless!!
Audrey
I probably smoked 25 plus years, I would cough every morning and always have that feeling in my chest. I began hating it ages ago and tried to quit so many times unsuccessfully. I always smelled like cigarettes, and I hated it.
Last year I finally got a small pod system and started out on salts. I started with flavors, my first flavor was a coffee flavor, and I loved it. I never picked up a cigarette again! I felt completely satisfied. Now a year later I feel so good. I sleep better, I never wake up coughing, and I swear I believe I started even looking better. I have absolutely never had any problems with vaping, I’ve even cut down on my nicotine intake. I started at a 50m in salts and now I’m on 6 in regular Ejuice. I’ll never pick up a cigarette again. I’m so grateful that I found something that finally worked.
Mark Copeland
I started smoking when I was 16 years old. I am 56 about to turn 57 years old. In 2012 I had a moderate stroke, doctors told me the main cause was smoking. I tried every available “medical” way to stop smoking and none helped. Chantix, nicotine patched and gum, again, none helped. I tried the “cigalikes” when they were first coming out, they didn’t help either. I guy that I work with vapes and I decided I was going to give it another try. I bought a Joyetech AIO device and a grape flavored e-liquid, i started with 12mg nicotine and have worked my way down to 6mg and my next goal is 3mg, in October of 2015. After using that device and still having a cigarette once in awhile, the guy I work with gave me a Eleaf Power Stick. That’s what finally got me off cigarettes. As of this coming January, I’ve not had a cigarette for two years after 39 years of cigarettes. Flavors and open-fill sub-ohm tanks and dual battery devices are what got me off cigarettes. I understand not wanting youth to use nicotine, I truly understand the concept of nicotine addiction. I feel the closed pod devices are too easily accessed by teens. And those devices should be highly regulated and inaccessible to teens. I would still be smoking cigarettes if it wasn’t for flavors to enjoy and make cigarettes taste disgusting to me. Please do not ban flavors, there are so many adults that can stop cigarettes with flavors. Vaping saved my life, please allow it to save more peoples lives and continue to save lives of people that enjoy flavors and vaping.
Sheila Hebda
My name is Sheila and I was smoking two packs of cigarettes a day one day I walked by this e-cigarette store and I decided instead of buying that carton of cigarettes for $50 I would buy an e-cigarette I had a ring around my lungs spots on my lungs I stopped smoking and I started smoking the e-cigarette now for about 7 years my lungs have completely cleared up I do not have a ring around them and I do not have spots this e-cigarette has helped me out a lot please don’t ban flavored juice it’s saved my life
Catherine Walker
My husband and I have been vaping for 8 years. When we were smoking cigarettes he’d cough so bad he’d pass out. That hasn’t happened since we started vaping. I’ve also had 3 dr’s tell me my lungs are clear and a lung test done said I had lungs of a 20 something year old. I’m no where near 20. I think people need to quit playing around trying to mix their own stuff unless they’ve done enough research to know exactly what they are doing. Also the fake marijuana vapes needs to be left to the professionals.
Connie Staples
I smoked for 35 years. Quit on & off several times, always went back to smoking. I educated myself on vaping with utube. I started vaping in Jan of this year. Quit on 3/1 this year. My favorite flavor is butterscotch & watermelon. I don’t cough or have a rattle in my chest anymore. All thanks to vaping flavors. Like I said I educated myself, easy for anyone to do. 6.5 months free from cigarette’s. That’s huge a accomplishment!
Debi Meinwieser
I smoked for 39 years! When my son was born in 1982 I was given an aluminum ashtray in my hospital room and was allowed to smoke as long as the baby wasnt in the room with us. Now everyone knows that smoking causes CANCER & KILLS! I watched my father suffer from smoking 3 packs a day. He had 5 artery bypass surgeries on both legs from ankle to groin and he suffered from severe neuropathy, copd & asthma for many years. On mother’s day/my sons birthday he had a massive blood clot hit his heart and 6 hours later he was DEAD! The following year I had a blood clot hit my lung and almost died! This was serious…I care for my 89 year-old mother who also has COPD from second-hand smoke and I knew then and there I had to quit smoking! I tried everything but nothing worked. When I discovered vaping I knew this was it! The shop owner allowed me to try many flavors and I chose vanilla bean & blueberry cake as my flavors he also helped me pick the perfect device which at that time was the Kangertech Juppi. To this day I still vape those same flavors along with frosted flake cereal. I’m proud to say that I’ve been vaping for 4 years and I feel so much better. It was those delicious flavors that changed my brain into wanting to reach for that yummy flavor instead of a disgusting camel crush menthol cigarette! I no longer have asthma and don’t have to use my inhaler anymore. I still suffer from vascular disease and neuropathy & will for the rest of my life.
I want to live to see grandchildren grow up. I REFUSE to quit vaping until I’m ready. I currently vape 1.5 nic so I am weaning down from 9mg nic.
I can’t imagine what this world would be like without being able to choose a product that is a 95% safer alternative to smoking!
Josh Dinkel
My name is joshua dinkel i started vaping in 2009 i was looking to quit smoking for all the obvious reasons… i found nicotine vaping and it changed my life but not in a way that it has for soo soo many when i first started vaping i was drawn to all the modding involved and building and tinkering with coils,cotton, and making new flavors it was a hobby and while i ultimately wanted to use it to quit smoking it didnt happen for a long long time this past year actually ! When i first started vaping i was facing alot of big changes in my life and alot of instability physically… in the past three or four years alot has changed ive had two daughters who have given me the will to live and better myself so that i can give them both a wonderful life in august of last year i smoked my last cigarette picked up my smpm 2.0 and never looked back i vape fruit flavors, dessert, and hybrid tobacco flavors all of them diy blends a friend and i share recipes back and forth ….when i was a smoker i would wake up coughing until i would throw up and be red in the face after about a month of no tobacco i could breath a lil better and my cough was gone i also used to have horrible blood circulation if my hand or leg would fall asleep it would stay half numb/ pins and needles forever that also stopped vaping has given me what tobacco was robbing me of… a better quality of life !! A life where i can be in my daughters’ world for years and years to come where i can see them make something out of themselves and start familys of their own a world where i will know my grandchildren in the past year i have not paid tobacco companys 2,572 dollars to kill myself and thats why they want vaping banned i refuse to pay into americas population control program i will NOT revert back to tobacco and i will not use prescription or otc smoking cessation aids vaping improves quality of this ex smokers life 10× and it will continue to long after any flavor ban is or isnt enacted ivapeivote

MY VAPE STORY
I discovered vaping about 6 years ago. I’m 39 and I smoked cigarettes for 20 years. My wife urged me to quit smoking for several years. I also have a daughter to think about. My brother started vaping and was working for him so I decided I wanted to give it a try. It was a little difficult to stay away from cigarettes at first but eventually it worked. I haven’t smoked a cigarette in 5 years. And I didn’t do it with tobacco flavor. I’ve never felt better in my life and taking away the one thing that keeps me from smelling like an ashtray would be detrimental to my health and my family. If it wasn’t for vaping I almost certainly would still be smoking cigarettes.
jenn Perry
I am a former 2.5 pack a day Menthol “lite” 100’s smoker and I sucked each one of those down. I started smoking at the age of 16. I did voluntarily quit smoking for both pregnancies, but it was not easy. The final decision on quitting came on Dec 3, 2013, when I was diagnosed with metastatic brain cancer, 3 tumors all not operable. As you can imagine, I was floored when I got the news. I asked all the why me, I’m too young questions, so I had to make a change in my life. My husband drove me to a local brick and mortar store and I picked up my first Aspire VV Twist in rainbow and a Kangertech tank set up and my 22mg of Strawberry cotton candy e-liquid and as they say the rest is history. After roughly 30 years of smoking I never thought a simple device would work. No medications, no patches a simple device that helped me to quit the combustible tobacco roller coaster.
Today I am 100% tobacco free and I am loving life. I can breathe again. Vaping has saved my life. I will forever have these tumors and will be in and out of Chemo forever, but I will NEVER smoke again. I am lucky, my doctor SUPPORTS vaping as a true alternative to smoking. I am also proud my husband of 30 years FINALLY switched to vaping and is breathing better and not using his asthma inhaler like he had before. I will get to spend hopefully many many many more years together. We will NOT be a casualty of Big Tobacco and pharmaceutical companies making billions a year to keep us sick and in need of their “services”, I lost a very special Mother in Law and Father In Law whom I loved dearly who smoked for over 60 years, and I wish I had known about vaping because they may be here today.

Vaping changed my life and health. Use to smoke 60 cigarettes a day until I told myself enough is enough I decided that I would try vaping as a means to quit. With the option of flavors I experimented with Alot of the options till I found the flavor that worked for me and that was fruits. The vaping of my fruit flavors has kept me of the stinkies and changed my health. Taste has returned I can breath properly smell more and no more stained teeth. Sleep has emproved and no more smelling like an ashtray. It has been 3 months now without that terrible habit of stinkies that was killing me. I smoked for 30 years. Don’t take the away peoples options to save their lives away by banning flavor e juices.
Kevin Martell
My very first cigarette was when I was 12 years old. I thought it was the cool thing to do. It continued for the next 32 years. I was buying 2 packs every day. I always felt sluggish and out of breathe. I finally quit for about 1 year and almost went back to them. I was introduced to vaping during that time and have never looked back. I now can’t stand the smell of regular cigarettes. Vaping saved me and I am thankful for that. I feel better because now I’m not putting all the nasty chemicals into my body anymore.
Michelle Cross
I was a 2 to 3 packs a day smoker for over 35 years. I have tried everything to quite and nothing seemed to work, untill I came across e cigarettes. 4 years ago I took the leap and bought a mod and tank. I started on the fruit flavored ejuice with a 12mg nicotine. I have gradually weened down to a 2mg nicotine. I am happy to say. I have not touched a cigarette since. I even ended up throwing away 2 cartons of cigarettes. I have to say my health has improved so much. I can breath so much better and I haven’t been getting sick as much since I quite smoking. My Doctor has said my lungs sound 100% better. I trully believe if It wasn’t for e cigarettes I wouldn’t be where I am today. I know for a fact that without vaping I would never have been able to quit.
Lisa
I had been a smoker for over 12 years and became pregnant, my significant other urged me to quit for my health and our unborn sons health. I had tried vaping before but never was successful. I got a good set up, gave it a go and saw my health take a turn for the best it’s been since I started smoking. I haven’t touched a cigarette since that day and currently vape 0 nic….I’m completely off of nicotine!! I purely only have the hand to mouth habit but this wouldn’t have been possible without vaping.
Adam Fury
I switched to vaping 2 years ago after nearly a decade of smoking cigarettes. I loved it so much I decided to create a vaping review website ( https://wevapemods.com/ ) to help educate people about this healthy alternative.
Gianluca
I smoked about 15 years.
3 years ago, a friend of mine let me try an ecig.
from that day I threw the tobacco in the trash and I became a vaper

Kevin G.
I first started smoking cigarettes when I was working at Goldman Sachs as an analyst. I needed a way to cope with the massive amount of stress that came with the job. One cigarette a day turned into a pack a day within months. I was addicted, constantly reaching for a cigarette at even the slightest inconvenience to my day. One day my boss let me hit his Juul and shortly after I bought my own. Within a week cigarettes started to taste disgusting and my desire to smoke cigs completely disappeared. I thank vaping for stopping me from diving headfirst into a habit that would’ve slowly taken my life away.
George
I started smoking cigarettes socially. Then, like many others, smoking transformed into a necessity. I was young and naive thinking that cigarettes didn’t affect me, until it actually did. We all remember the morning coughs – “What color is my phlegm going to be this morning?”. The constant need to air out, being aware that I did smell like an ashtray.
Vaping has not only stopped my from smoking cigarettes, but it also gave me the mindset and kick I needed to actually care. Care about myself, and care about others i see struggling to kick the stick.
I feel better.
Without vaping, I most definitely would still be smoking cigarettes. Most importantly, without flavors, vaping would not have worked.
Rob B.
My family has always been at me for years about it, but it didn’t hit me until I was working on my daughters Lexus in my garage last year. I gave her my old Lexus, it is the one I drove for years. I was cleaning the inside when I noticed all of the ash and smell coming from the interior. I saw the holes from the burns left by cigarettes. It was kind of a visual representation of what I was. I was wreaking of smoke and my insides were full of ash. I wanted to show my daughter that I could clean up my life like I can clean up the car.Blake
I started smoking socially at parties in high school. There was no reason I started, just one day I bummed a cigarette and the snowball effect happened. What started out as an occasional cigarette at a party turned into a craving when I smelled a lit cigarette. Eventually I was smoking at least 2 packs a week. My girlfriend at the time hated the smell, and I couldn’t visit my parents house without taking a shower first.
The first ejuice I tried was Ruthless Rise on Ice & I fell in love!
I bought a kangertech device the next day and a bottle of Rise. Now my all day vapes are Loaded Cran Apple Iced and Skirrr- Skir ( I love the menthols)
Alfonso C
I picked up my first cigarette at age 13, and smoked almost constantly for 22 years. I thought I would never quit, although in the back of my head I always wanted to. When I first found out about vaping it was sometime in early 2014, and I hadn’t had much knowledge about the transition up until this point. I tried going to different vape shops and had different people help me get set up. It was the youtube vape community that really motivated me to stop smoking, from consuming myself in vape content I was starting to think less and less about picking up another pack. It was tough, and I can’t say I quit cold turkey at first, but over time I can proudly say that I have 100% transitioned to only vaping. I am now working on decreasing my nicotine intake. I hope my story can maybe reach another smoker, and motivate them to put down the pack and try to pick up a vape. Thanks for listening guys!
Phil Antonio
I was an avid smoke before I started vaping, I can honestly say that vaping helped me quit smoking. Stopping smoking cigarettes has made me feel a lot healthier. I don’t feel out of breath when I go to the gym and I don’t wake up with that tight lungs feeling.
Raissa Kuzer
This is actually about my mom. She has been an on-and-off smoker all her life since she was 16. She did her best to quit smoking when she was pregnant (managed!) and when my sister and I were little (not so managed). Last year I got her a simple pod and some strong tobacco nicsalt and she did it, she could finally quit cigarettes! Being able to satisfy her cravings without the harmful effects (and smell!) was really liberating for her, and now she’s working on lowering the nicotine in her juice. She’s doing great, I’m proud of her, and we’re happy that we’ll have her around longer!
Jason
I used to smoke black and milds when I first got to college. I switched to vaping when I was 19, have been for the past 4 years on and off but the last 2 years have been more so, as my interest in the advocacy portion of the industry has taken off. Now I work at a vape shop, get to help smokers quit daily, and am part of my states smoke free association!
Alyssa Long
My testimonial is make the switch, I have never felt so good in the 15 years that I smoked. I’ve been vaping for 1 year, my fiance has been vaping for going on 4 years. We have so much energy, our clothes don’t smell anymore. Make the switch, Vaping saves lives. I switched but I was also given an ultimatum, he was tired of kissing me and my breath smelling like an ashtray, he said try his vape or kick rocks.
Kevin Dawe
I am 38 years old and I began smoking when I was just 11 years old. Approximately 10 years ago I began my vaping lifestyle and even tried to sell e-cigarettes door to door because I found I could stop smoking by vaping instead. The logic was clear in my mind; liquid vapour, pure nicotine and no carbon monoxide. The science wasn’t ‘in’ yet but it made sense to me and my personal experience solidified my feelings about it. Fast forward to 2014 – my father was waking up every day, coughing a wheezing from a 50 year smoking habit and my mother asked me to coach him through the experience of switching after many other failed attempts to quit with patches and pills. He stopped smoking on the 20th September – that very same day he got his first vape! He still vapes but has very little nicotine; it’s more for the physical habit rather than addiction. Just two weeks after switching his smokes for a vape, his morning hack and coughing fits were gone for ever.
Vaping saved my father and my life.
We don’t question seat belts or cycling helmets – as both help save lives (neither are without risk) – so why do we keep having to question vaping again? Ruthless e-liquid is tested for toxins and it’s made to market leading standards. I find myself back at that logical place again.. …why do people even smoke?
Jared Chipman
I smoked cigarettes for 15 years. Nothing I did helped me to stop. I tried everything. I was do tired of smelling like an ash tray and getting sick. I finally found relief in the form of e-cigarettes. It stopped the craving and satisfied my appetite for the oral fixation.
The flavors made all the difference in the world. Without them I would have never been able to commit to stopping. After 5 years now I feel so much better. I can run again and breathe better. Vaping truly saved my life. I feel blessed.
I’ve even met people that I would never have had the opportunity to meet. Amazing people in all forms. E-cigarettes have had more of an impact on my life than most people will ever understand. And Ruthless was a leader in quality vaping products from the start. Thank you Fam. You’ve truly helped change my life for the better. God Bless!!! Stay Ruthless

I switched to vaping after using other methods of quitting failed to keep me off ciggeretes. And i have a heart condition so for me vaping has been a more safer and healthier option for me and i have never looked back on vaping after 4 years i still enjoy vaping very much and would reccommend anyone to quit using vaping

Vaping did get me off of cigarettes immediately hit a vape one time after i purchased a smok bec pro and been on cigarettes over 5 years since vaping saved my life literally if i did not stop smoking chances are i would have gotten cancer like most people and family i know from just smoking if you smoke i highly encourage to try to quit with vaping it will not only get those harsh chemicals in cigarettes but it will also save your life and family around you

I smoked a pack of cigarettes a day for 20 years & have finally stopped by using flavored vape 2 years ago. I know with 100% certainty if i continued I would die much earlier than i was created to. I have never dreamed of looking back. I noticed immediately my health improved once I stopped smoking. I no longer have that smokers cough, I can breath better, Im active now and I’m no longer demonized for lighting up in public for the stench that it creates. I can’t believe this vape ban has been put into affect. It’s ridiculous. Now that I have found a somewhat healthier & definitely less offensive alternative, it’s being taken away under the gyuse of child safety. Children do what they do with or without their parents say so. Reform starts in the home not by taking away the rights of others who are looking for healthier alternatives legally.
