    Hi, my fiance has been smoking them for a few months now, he has had the occasional cigarette (last one he had was the beginning of Sept because his electronic one ran out battery!!) He gets on really well with it and as it is only nicotine and none of the nasty chemicals etc, its much better for him (and me!!).

    His mum and brother have tried them and they both have a week of that and 3 weeks of normal cigarettes so it doesn't really work for them! His dad actually gave up smoking on them after about 3 weeks.

    I think he's saving around £80 a month by smoking them. :j
  • Thanks for posting, Rachel :) I expect you've no idea what your fiance is "vaping", but you can usually avoid getting stuck without batteries if you buy spares and keep them charged up. I know some of the less good starter kits come with only one battery so are not as complete as they claim.

    Don't suppose he's got one of these?

    And that pic is a year or two old, there are loads more models now.

    Hi Veronarona, he has a few batteries that he uses with his cigarette but unfortunately, that evening we were at a wedding and he had left a couple in the room (at a different hotel) to charge as they had all become flat and so he was unable to use another battery. He is usually really good with charging them and always has at least 3 (charged) batteries and plenty of cartridges on him.
    Wow, quite a few there! He uses the Vip e-cigarette and he has no complaints. They have started selling flavoured ones now (He likes the cherry ones!) :D

    Rachel, there are far better e-cigs than the Vip, for about the same price or even less your OH could get a Riva. Far better battery life between charges plus he would be able to use cartomisers with it - they last longer between refills & are very cheap.

    Get your OH & any other members of your family to join All About E-cigarettes - we can find you the best deal going to suit everyone . The forum is completely unaffiliated - I wont even allow the friendly vendors that post on the forum to pay anything towards the forum upkeep. We only recommend sellers due to their excellent customer service & good prices/products -

    I'm 11 months on the e-cigs now and it was the best decision I've made.

    Great site you have there :)

    4 months on friday and I wouldn't have done it with out vaping/e-fags.

    Don't listen to google or any of the sites that promote Skycig as the best one going. It really is'nt. The riva is a great bit of kit, although it doesnt look like a fag, it last longer, has more of a kick and works out cheaper as you can refill your own cart.

    https://www.vapeescape.co.uk is a great site for all the kit and liquid to fill it up. Then head over to the allabout e forum and ask all the questions you need.
    If i upset you don't stress, never forget that god aint finished with me yet.
