    Just quit smoking all together - i know its tough, took me a year...

    But, not having that demand in my head, smell in my clothes and breath & extra cash in my pocket is fantastic

    good luck

    Works for some, if you're in the right frame of mind. Well done you for doing it. Doesn't work for others, sadly. I've recommended e-cigs to about 8 people altogether and ALL have successfully quit the stinkies with e-cigs. E-cigs aren't harmful. They're nothing to be ashamed of. And we still get all the benefits you mention. My vaping habit now costs me about £20 a month instead of over £220 and is no more harmful to me than a cup of coffee. What's wrong with people using an alternative?

    And it took precisely 3 weeks after discovering e-cigs to quit the stinkies completely. Which probably works out a tad cheaper than taking a year to do it....? ;)

    I've been using a Kanger Pro Tank 2 for the past week.

    I'm unsure if life can get any better. It's brilliant :j

    Although having just seen the duel coiled Pro Tank 3 on MyEPack..... I'm spending too much on this now :rotfl:

    Got some 2 & 1 mm silica and 1 mm Ekowool winging it's way to me as well.

    Can anybody recommend any small EGO batteries? Talking length wise here so don't mind if they're a bit chunky. AAEC says there's 400 mah batteries but I can't find any. For out n about with my EVODs.

    Hi,

    I smoked for 20 odd years and never thought i'd be able to quit, found it really easy using ecigs. Admittedly for me the push came from losing a relative to lung cancer, was a really horrible way to go and i wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy.

    If your considering quitting the definitely ecigs are the way forward.

    I'm not a heave smoker. In fact, I don't smoke on most days but when I decide to have a few beers, I very much enjoy a few smokes. I've read that some people who were once heave smokers have been able to stop smoking 'proper' cigarettes and instead smoke electronic cigarettes. I would like to try it out myself and hopefully, the next day I won't have a tight chest and much coughing. Has anybody on here tried them? I understand a decent 'set-up' will cost you as much as £50. I'm looking for advice on what to purchase and the cost and cost of re-filling etc. Thank you.

    Have a look at the established e-cig thread - lots of activity/info. :)

    You will also find that the spamming jokers are kept in check better.

    And it is well worth the change IMO - I've cut my tobacco consumption to a fraction of previous levels and kept it there for several years.

    And your chest weill feel much better for it after a few weeks but when changing from tobacco to vapour, you may find it a little spluttery for a short time as your throat gets used to the vapour instead of smoke.
