Default Electronic Cigarettes

Anyone else used them before? I have a DSE901 on order right now, it will be my first one. Electronic Cigarettes originated in China because of their Anti-smoking laws. So they created a non-harmful, enjoyable way to smoke. Which gained a lot of popularity in Asia and Europe. I've been a regular smoker of Camel Cigarettes for 5 years now, my friend that I work with told me about this E-cigarette and ever since I started reading about them, I've been hooked. My buddy got his E-cig about 1.5 weeks ago and has since then stopped smoking "Analog" Cigarettes completely.

The way they work, they have an atomizer that creates a vapor from liquid nicotine. You can get it in all sorts of different flavors, so in a sense it's a lot like Hookah smoke, but without the smoke. Nicotine really isn't all that bad for you, if at all. It has to do with the 4,000+ chemicals that they use in cigarettes that make them so bad for you. So in a sense, I am excited to kick the cigarette habit, while still being able to get my nicotine fix.

Not to mention, I spend $20+ a week on cigarettes. I found an e-cigarette kit, E-Juice Apple Flavor, E-Juice Vanilla and extra catridges for $75. And all of that should last me almost 2 months. So, I figure I'm saving myself almost $80-90 a month (Ejuice is $10 a bottle and catridges are $.60).

What I started this thread for was to keep a documentation of how the products I use work, pricing and effectiveness over my "smoking urge". So, in the case that there are any other users here that are looking to quit, maybe this could be an option for you as well.

Cheers,
-Brian

I used something like that years ago, they were passing it off as a way to help quit smoking.. I am sure these work much better though, the one I used didnt look like a cig and it was much larger..

I don't know what other flavors he has, but he got one that is "Red Bull + B12". He says it does give you an extra pep to your step. This was the flavor he had when I tried out his E-cigarette, and it definitely tasted like Red Bull. Also, there is no "odor" to these things. Because there is no ash or anything, it smells just like the vapor that you are smoking. So if you vape Red Bull, it will probably smell like Red Bull in your room.

I seen them forsale in Florida when I went there for vacation and told my mom about them since she's tried to quit 1000 times. I don't smoke and funny thing is they were selling them in a little both in the mall, I thought they were stupid. I guess I was wrong. Also subscribed!

I will 1up you actually:

E-cigarette Forum - They have an amazing outsource of reviews, tips and overall information.

Widow's Bead Work - Where I ordered my products from this morning. She had, by far the best prices I could find without having to wait 3 weeks to receive my order from China. I hope all goes smoothly.
