Answer:

I smoked for 17 years, and have been using an e-cigarette since January. I’ll try to answer each question as best I can:

How much does it cost?
-0 for a starter kit. You will want to buy a few extra atomizers *the part that vaporizers the e-liquid* and some extra e-liquid to try a few different flavours out.

Where can I buy it>
It depends on where you live. The easist way is to purchase online.

What does it taste like?
IT is different from cigarette smoke, but after a few days, you realize it actually tastes pururer and cleaner then cigarettes. You can get over 100 flavours of e-liquid for your electronic cigarette.

How big is the throat hit?
It depends on the e-cigarette and the amount of nicotine in the e-liquid. Most smokers who try my e-cigarette usually cough and can’t handle the throat hit at first.

Does it get you buzzed like a real cigarette does?
The nicotine absorbs slower in the vapor then in the smoke, so it takes a few more seconds to get the nicotine into your body, but you will still feel satisfied like with a cigarette within a few minutes.

How much nicotine does it have compared to a real cigarette?
You can get anywhere from nicotine free (0MG) to extra high nicotine (36MG) strength e-liquid. I use either 16MG or 24MG e-luquid, and I used to smoke medium strength cigarettes.

How does this compared and how much safer is it?
It is comparable to drinking coffee. Nicotine by itself is about as harmful as caffeene. Just be sure to purchase your products from a reputable company. They should provide you with certifications of their products, or have them on their website.

Is it exactly like smoking a regular cigarette? I’m planning on buying one soon, as a replacement for regular tobacco cigarettes.

Answer:

It’s not the same but it’s pretty close. Different companies have different quality. http://www.cloud9smoking.com has good stuff with American-Made smoke juice, which is the flavoring.

I was wondering if the lowest price electronic cigarette is the advertised at http://www.getecig.com?

Answer:

That is the lowest I have seen

I’m not a smoker, but my father is. He has tried to quit it but he cant, so i found out about the e-cigarette when i saw the movie “The Tourist”. Could you tell my in your opinion does it feel the same as smoking a real one, and if not is it close? Also, whats the cost per week compering to the real one?

Answer:

It’s not exactly the same however, if someone is trying to quit smoking, it can be good enough to scratch the itch.

Personally, I enjoyed smoking and young enough to not have cancer etc… but wanted to quit. E-Cigs are a stepping stone for me. I’m still getting the activity I enjoyed but without all the tar and chemicals.

Generally I feel better and cleaner smoking an E-Cig than regular cigs.

Cost for me is less than cigarettes. I was spending around / pack buying 4 packs a week. So / week. With a budget e-cig i get from a local tobacco shop and liquid refill from Johnson Creek Smoke Juice, I’m probably down to about 7 bucks a week.

Please advise if there’s any store that sells electronic cigarette in stores in Goldcoast or Brisbane , Australia ?
The point is I prefer to view it physically to purchase rather than just images.
Thanks Molly.

Answer:

I have no idea but you could try ebay where they are probably cheaper.

im looking to buy one can you tell me some of the ones you have had experience with? does it produce A lot of vapor? hows the tast? and is it a reliable company to buy cartrages with? ive tried blu befor and it was ok but ive seen better so i know there out there.

Answer:

just go on ebay and buy a dse-901 cigarette they are good. and also when you buy e-liquid to fill up your e cigarette cartridges make sure they have polyethylene glycol in them and not propylene glycol. because polyethylene glycol produces more vapor.

Hi, both of my parents are heavy smokers and i’ve tried to help them quit but they always go back to the nasty habits of smoking. I’ve heard about the electronic cigarette and I wanted to know if I bought one for my parents would it help the quit. Even if it doesn’t help them quit is it better for them to just smoke using the electric cigarette rather than an actual one?

Answer:

Some say that using electronic cigarettes can help you quit smoking.

By switching to ecigs you would certainly quit smoking tobacco cigarettes with tar and 1000s of carcinogens.

To end your addiction to nicotine you have two options with ecigs:
One option is to gradually lower the level of nicotine in your cartridges to become nicotine and tobacco free.
The other option is to smoke electronic cigarettes with zero nicotine cartridges while applying nicotine patches. That way you separate addiction and habit.

Here is a forum

in which some folks that shared their quitting experience with e-cigarettes.

I live in the united states, I have been reading about the electronic cigarette and want to try it, I know that costco sells it but there refills are really expensive, does anyone know another retailer that sells it in florida?

Answer:

Try to buy them online. Yahoo shopping, & Amazon.com carry them & other brands the last time I checked. Or, just search for the “e cigarette” blogs & forums for recommendations depending on your tastes.

Njoy I think it’s called. Is it any good, and how long does it take?

Answer:

The question you have to ask yourself is do you really want to quit? The electronic cigarette is not a “quit smoking” device. It is a smoking alternative. Now, do you actually “quit” tobacco? Absolutely. But do you quit smoking? Not really.

About six months ago, I started using my e-cig and still smoking my tobacco. I cut down from a pack a day to 4-6 smokes. About a month and a half ago, I woke up and decided I could just use my e-cig. I have had absolutely no depression, no over eating, none of the “quit” issues.

Is the e-cig a joke? Absolutely not. There are thousands of people who have made the switch and guess what? They are all tobacco free, still enjoying their smokes, and there is no second hand smoke, so it is better for those around you.

My suggestion is you do some research. Look at the different suppliers. Read more. Decide what style you want. Note: Njoy is just a name brand like Marlboro or Camel. Read blogs of people who use them. I love mine. I could not have gone tobacco free without it.

I recently bought an Elektro brand electronic cigarette and am taking a trip to Europe. I don’t need my cig on the airplane, so I was wondering if I am allowed to put it in my checked bag.
Things to note:
-I’m flying Air Canada and it says on the site that ionizers are prohibited, but it does say that e-cigarettes are approved as long as you’re not using them.
-I’m not worried about damage to/losing my luggage.

Answer:

Yes,bringing it with you is fine.
