E Cigarettes

What's the word yahooka?

I'm looking into buying one, but I'm very indecisive.

what kind?

i've only talked to one guy about em and he said he used them to quit about a year ago and never went back.

and i quit smoking cigs but went to black n milds for a while then eventually cut back to one or two a week. usually just when i'm drinking.

im not 100% sure what the brand was. the light on the end of it was actually green which i thought was kinda cool, im not sure if that helps in identifying the brand

i think its a cool idea, but i feel like if you are really addicted to cigs you will just get addicted to the fake cig too, i could be wrong though

yeah i think its better to make the decision to quit tobacco totally rather than find lternative ways of staying addicted. i quit tobacco and after a while drinking doesnt make me want to smoke anymore so i feel im way better off.

it was most likely a 'green smoke' brand. which is the one i'm lookin into getting. it's 145 for a starter kit tho. kinda pricey.

but the idea is to either gauge yourself off of nicotine, or for a healthy alternative to continue smoking. you can buy liquid with different quantities of nicotine, some with zero nicotine. so it can be used for either. i've found that mostly they're just used for a cheaper, safer alternative. not so much of a crutch to help you quit.

Spend the extra money to get a 'real' e cig... not the cheapo strange herbal blend type vaporizers some places sell..

I've decided to go with the Titan 510, aka joytech 510, from totally wicked. Great price and a lot of good reviews. Good look too. I'm going with black which has a blue LED tip that lights up when you take a drag. It's also a manual battery which I've heard is a lot better than an automatic.



They have great flavors too, it comes with menthol or tobacco flavor, and I also ordered coffee and watermelon liquids.

Yes... and with the realistic coloring too. Worked really well, no complaints except how often I had to reload it with the nicotine juice(?) was sort of bothersome but idk if that is a common issue with all e cigs..

well i've changed my mind again. i found another e cig that is basically the same as the 510 but the cartridge is a empty, no-spill tank opposed to a wool filled, known to leak and ruin atomizers cartridge.

you just pour in the liquid and your set. the wool filled cartridges have to be rinsed out, maintained and replaced. and i hear they give a lot of dry burn hits which sounds horrible.

Once you endure the two weeks or so of hell, well then it's all psychological. Getting past the psychological stuff such as associations; having a cig with coffee, for example. I quit cold turkey 7 years ago and am not tempted in the least. Not being tempted by associations took me around a year.

Isn't e-smoking like vaping though? Not too unhealthy. I don't know, just asking.

e-smoking IS vaping.
vaping a flavored propylene or vegetable oil, sometimes they're mixed.

but yeah, i officially ordered the eGo-T, it's just like the 510 in basic design, but better battery life, better look and a way better e-liquid set up. there's no wool filling in the cartridge, it's just an empty refillable tank that doesn't spill and can be refilled with a syringe.

will post pics when it arrives.

I bought the bluCig and ended up giving it away. After a while it gives me a sore throat, and I found out the chemical they use is the same as whats used in a fog machine.


I'll stick to the green. :/

I know. I'm kind of happy I was able to quit smoking cigarettes (2 months free now ) without the help of the e-cig we had... sharing one ecig between two people and it's bound to go missing soon enough. We still have the extra battery & charger though... but not the essential atomizer.

And once someone mentioned to me 'how terrible inhaling those kinds of vapors' are versus inhaling regular cigarette smoke, in addition to, or with the combination of second hand smoke... I think at that point using the e-cig ultimately made me decide to quit smoking cigarettes c0ld turk33
