    Any of you smokers try them?  I been using one for about 6 weeks now and have completely dropped smoking reg cigs.  Its almost been life changing.

    I saw someone selling a kit on craigslist and was blown away by the idea so researched them. Very interesting idea but pretty expensive to get started!

    actually gered the ones i use cost me 20 bucks to get started. and buy em at 7-11. came with a battery, usb charger, and 2 cartridges. each cartridge is about 1 pack of smokes.  When i went to fall fest id walk around and take a hit and stick in my pocket.

    My son in law has been using one for the last couple of months and has completely quit smoking cigs. I've been trying to stop but haven't used one of them. I went to be hypnotised and using the patch and lozenges. It's working pretty good but I can't get past the craving so was wondering if that would work for that. I do not want to smoke cigs again but I smoked a LOT so it's so hard to get passed that craving part. I will get there but it's not yet.

    There is a kiosk in the mall that has them. The guy always tries to offer me a hit. Hr must do that to everyone... or I look like a smoker. Not sure. So are these things meant to help you quite smoking? Be a healthier alternative? Both?

    check out fumo.biz I listen to a pod cast called The Mediocre show and they are sponsored by these guys. Everybody Ive talked to about them love em, they have a grip of different flavors. I play alot of Xbox with a guy named Greg. Hes the promo guy for them and if you type in Mediocre Show I believe you get 20 percent off, or they have a mediocre show starter kit. While youre at it I highly recommend the podcast as well. www.mediocreshow.com or find em on Itunes.

    I would say both with not so much on the healthier side as they do contain nicotine which is what loosens the plaque in the arteries which can cause blockages. now im not a dr. my wife had a heart attach earlier in the year and this is some of the things we were told. 
     
    and the ecigs ive tried i guess  you could say theres a little sweet taste too them.

    i like the fact there is no smell, my car already smells better. No ashes and cig butts everywhere. that is all bonuses for me. as far as the cravings go irish, you get a throat hit, and exhale what appears to be smoke. I mean for me it really is the same without the mess.....Btw, you can get them without nicotine.  here is what i use.
