Default Anyone here a 'vaper' or using 'vaping' to replace ciggies?

I'm going to try vaping to get rid of analog ciggies for good. I've ordered an E9 cartomiser & a Joye E-Go

E9:



Joye E-go:



Not many people know what they are so:

These are E-ciggarettes essentially, there's no tobacco, nothing burning like a normal ciggie, no tar, no carbon monoxide, no carbon dioxide.
They emit water vapor & nicotine/ flavouring only..... Getting rid of the 2000 odd cancer causing chemicals & tar in normal smokes......Yes they do contain nicotine, which isn't a carginogen.

Has (or is anyone) using a vaporiser to rid themselves of normal ciggies?
Your experience with 'vaping'?

Sounds interesting. I don't smoke, kicked it probably 7 years ago now but you would think if the government was serious about saving lives they would promote things like this.

And of course, lower the speed limits....

yeah i heard about these just last week, i really don't think its breaking the habit & will be easily to fall back into pinching a ciggy here and there if you run out or something

i've just stopped smoking after 20 years! i'm personally using nicotinell chewing gum, today is my 2 week milestone, pretty tough but just personally got to a point where i thought 'enough is enough' no looking back for me

The biggest downside to them is that they don't 'end'. A normal cig will finish after a few puffs, but the e-cig is just a big battery that keeps going and going.

This, bloke at work was back on them in a couple of weeks.

You can smoke them inside though!

Used one when I gave up smoking, it made it very easy for me although I wasn't a very heavy smoker. Was weird at first and the taste took a little getting use to but after that I had no desire for dirty conventional ciggies. Also there's some pretty cool flavours around.

Another plus is it doesn't make you stink and passive smoking is eliminated.

Hope it works well for you!

Champix is the answer imo. government will now subsidize the cost for up to 6 months but you have to get a scrip from your GP.

The habit of physically drawing on a cig is still an issue for many smokers using this vapor method.

Well done mate!!

I've tried: Patches, gum, the pill that makes you loopy...all no joy for me.

The E-9 cartridges are equal to 18 ciggs...for me that is 1 day's worth in one cart.

There are over 100 flavours & various nicotine strengths from 1 - 36 MG per ML of juice.

But dude, nicotine is addictive, so wouldn't you just get hooked on the e-cigs? Can't see how it helps you quit, you're just replacing one with another.

Forget cigs, start smoking stogies. Then there's no nicotine just tobacco and quality - win win!!
