Little confession *whispers* I did fall off the wagon and had 6 cigs over the weekend as my little e-cig dont hold that long a charge, but when I think that over a weekend I smoked approx 30, that is quite a good result

You're really going to need 2 batteries to convert fully. and if you think about the cost it's well worth it because the 30 fags are going to cover the cost of a spare battery, If you also look at having a mobile charging case so that you have a spare battery fully charged with you at all times (they hold spare cartridges as well) life becomes a lot easier. Jacvapour . com sell a charging case that can recharge up to 5 batteries and looks for all the world like a cigarette packet! so do Intellicig but its a bit dearer. As we all like to save a bit here, there's a 10% discount code for Jacvapour, JVDB10 Intellicig do a points system which can build up to decent savings over time too.
Jacvapour sell some great flavours, Intellicig have only 3, But,, I like Intellicigs 'Rich' ecopure with a couple of drops of Jacvapours 'coffee' in the Jacvapour E-cig!
That's what happens when you go full time Vaping, you can spend ages mixing things to a personal preference with parts and liquids. Ever satisfied?? Debatable,, but I'm not killing myself or others anymore.

In your first post (which was deleted by the mods) you admit to being a salesman for e-cigs and in your post above you blatantly list 2 companies, when it's nothing really to do with the subject.
I would suggest others do the same and report it.Freedom is not worth having if it does not include the freedom to make mistakes.0 -

That's fine Lotus, honestly, at least I had the nerve to tell the truth.
So will all the other postings with name of E-cigs be removed as well then?
This is one of the reasons that a lot of people are in the dark about E-cigs, even though I myself personally will not be making money out of my posting it just seems these days that anyone at all who might be making a little something is slammed as spamming when really a lot of the time the information is being put out there so that people have the information that they require to make an informed choice.
Kindest regards to you and all posters on this forum,

If people had come on and their first words had been to say how great some company is, then yes it would be removed as spam.
Anyway it's up to MES's moderators to make the decision, not mine, I merely point out when I think it's spam.Freedom is not worth having if it does not include the freedom to make mistakes.0 -

Hello again most ferverent money saver.
truth? about my work.
How great some company is on the first post? never mentioned one.
But a lot of people are telling others on this postng just how great their e-cig, made by whoever, is,, how do you know if they are reps or affiliates or not?
I dont intend to post here anymore so go ahead and report my posting as spam, it matters not to me.
I love your signature. did you?0 -
Apologies if I'm sounding ever so slight evangelical but I really think that if you are a smoker and know you SHOULD give up but would have no qualms continuing to smoke if it didn't affect your health, the health of others, was cheaper and didn't make you smell, then you really should try the e-cig as it could save your life.
More and more articles are coming out now that give more information so that they don't sound so scary - it's so much better than smoking, you get all the parts you enjoy and lose all the bad things.
Here's an article by Miriam Stoppard - http://www.mirror.co.uk/advice/miriam/2012/01/16/smoke-don-t-choke-115875-23701311/
And here's a link to the full study that she refers to in that article which makes really positive reading - http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3203079/ More than 40 smokers with no desire to quit took part in the study and more than half either significantly reduced their cigarette smoking or quit them completely. Now compared with something like 97% failing to quit with cessation support or NRT, that figure is amazing - and that's people with no desire to quit, not people who were committed to quitting.
If you bust a quit and the numbers show that it happens most of the time, then don't go back to cigarettes when these are so much better and won't kill you. Don't beat yourself up, just try these and save your life.
Another article in the Independent too - http://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/health-and-families/features/electronic-cigarettes-a-safer-way-to-puff-6290592.html
I really urge every smoker to try one and for every e-cig user to try to encourage other smokers to try theirs and give it a go. NRT is great for the 3% or so that succeed with it but saving the lives of the other 97% has to be the focus.

Sorry for preaching guys :-)
I know when I researched e-cigs, back in August last year. There did seem to be alot of conflicting advice about them going round.
There were health concerns about this and that.
I discussed it with my wife and she said well really, what do you have to lose, you've tried everything and and failed. It can't be any worse for you than cigarettes.
And when you think about it, she's absolutely dead right.
I mean we all know the complete crap you get in cigs, how it affects your health, your whole life.
Once you try it and experience how they work, I find most people tend to say the same. How good it is and how easy it is to not smoke after that.
How can you not be a little enthusiastic about something like that?
I want to tell every smoker I meet, I want to shout it from the rooftops how great it is, I want to save people from fags.
Unfortunately it's not that easy. People are naturally suspicious of anything new (I was also) so I try to take it easyeasier said than done.

Tonight on Vapour Trails TV http://www.vapourtrails.tv/ they have a beginners special. This is a dedicated internet tv channel about vaping and e-cigs. 9pm
I read it here.
Tonight's show will be a Beginner's Special. Dave and Sav will host folks who want their questions answered, and we're going to open the Skype lines so you can ask and be answered live!
All you need to do is post a request in the Chat, and skype Sav on savgirl1 and she will add you to the conversation as soon as a slot is available. No need for a camera - voice will do quite nicely.
We really hope this will be a useful programme for everybody, and feel free to ask any question you like - a lot of the team will be there to help out.
