looks cool.. I see what you mean that it could get expensive fast though.. it says 2.4%.. if I may.. what's the strength of the cigarettes you smoke.. and how do you find these in comparison.. does it work?

I've only bought one and I used it for a day without smoking so it did work for me, for a day at least. Right now I'm smoking roll-your-own cigs because it only costs me like $75 a month versus the $300 I was spending for American Spirit blue packs which are full strength. I thought the e-cig was just as strong and worked really well.

I'm going to order an e-cig system that should be just as inexpensive as the roll-your-own per month to help me quit. It includes a variable-voltage device they call a 'mod' that comes with rechargeable batteries. You can attach various 'atomizers' to the top of the device which vaporize the 'e-fluid'. Once you have the device and atomizer, all you need to buy on a regular basis is the e-fluid so doing it this way will be inexpensive in the long run.

I checked out that link you posted the other day.. I thought it looked rather bulky and probably weighs a few pounds.. the one I had posted gives you something equal to 35 cartons of smokes in the kit for $100 CDN.. I wouldn't mind trying one before hand though.. but somehow I can't seem to find any with actual nicotine in them withOUT buying a kit first..

have you tried others yet? or is this the first one for you so far..
do you find the mist makes you cough at all?

They do make systems that are small like a regular cigarette and have rechargeable batteries. The only problem with those is that they are proprietary and you have to purchase their disposable cartridges which can also be expensive, but still cheaper than completely disposable e-cigs. Also, the batteries in those don't last very long and as the batteries start to die, the strength and amount of vapor you get diminishes because it's not voltage regulated. If you want to go that route, I'd check out blu e-cigs http://www.blucigs.com/premium-starter-kits

The advantage of getting a "bulky" variable-voltage 'mod' system is the batteries can last days, each hit you take will be the same because it is voltage regulated, you can try out different atomizers, you can try out any flavor e-liquid you want and they are much less expensive than cartridges. They may be bigger but they still fit in your pocket or purse and probably weigh much less than a pound.

The first e-juice I want to try is Boba's Bounty which is a tobacco flavored e-juice that has won awards and comes in many nicotine strengths. You can purchase it on their website:http://www.alienvapor.com/bobas-bounty/

I've only tried the Logic Platinum I linked to earlier in the thread. If you take a big drag you will cough.

I'll check them out.. thanks for the info.. and good luck with your quitting


keep us posted too with how that mod works out for you.. that'd be interesting to see if these things actually work like they say they do..

I did find a way to find the nicotine content.
Just ast for nicotine cotent in your brand of smokes.
When I asked,mine was very comparable.And also said the Blu came up just a litte lower.It is kinda funny that it gave the Blu as the e-cig to compare it to.
Hope this helps!

I quit smoking on 1/1/10 after smoking 2 packs a day for a couple decades. It was my first attempt to quit & I really wasn't ready to quit, but my mom was. So, we quit together on e-cigarettes. She was a 3 pack a day smoker for 55 years ... it took her 2 tries. The best brand is V2. They have great deals, too! Try them ... they really do work!

not just the Smoke and the Tar that's detrimental,it's the NICOTINE as well!

So,if you have never smoked,it is really senseless to start to ingest Nicotine just for kicks!

My understanding is that nicotine in of itself is no more harmful than caffeine

I quit 3 years ago and have never looked back.
Started with the safe-cig brand (looks like a normal cig) and after investing $200 in it I realized I was stuck on their cartridges for life - I was a half a pack/day smoker but blasting through 1 cartridge per day so not much savings there.

The blu-cigs and such I have tried from the corner drug stores are simply pathetic, seems like you are inhaling air so I would not suggest them, plus way overpriced.

Best bet is to buy an EGO or similar brand battery pack with a refillable tank for the liquid. You can get your cost down to less than $10 per month if you shop around on liquids.
I should point out it takes a decent investment before you will finally find the perfect fit for your needs so expect to spend some money ..in the long run however you save thousands off your normal tobacco habit and save your health at the same time so win-win.

BTW, nicotine is a drug sure but not a very harmful one, comparable to caffeine. It does in fact have some positive benefits not mentioned on the graph, (it's considered a nootropic; brain enhancing substance and offers protections against certain neural degenerative conditions like parkinsons). Even so, it is powerfully addictive, basically like having a little monkey on your back screaming commands in your ear, not a nice arrangement but for those unable to outright quit, vaping is a lifesaver ..literally.

mines called "A Clean Cigarette", simply love it!
