    I ordered one from nucig.co.uk the other day - just waiting for it to be delivered but will let you know my thoughts on it when it arrives!
  • Ive got a riva 510 tank set up, from Vaper Trail- based in Bournemouth, google it..
    Started with a midi starter kit with a cartomiser, but quickly wanted a tank atomiser and bigger battery that would last longer after seeing my mums one :D

    I buy the juice every now and then mailorder from the same place.
    Have not smoked a fag since the day I started the vapour, nor do I want to! Its probably the only successful nicotine replacement Ive had or tried, [and that includes champix] as you get the sensation of smoking when you inhale/exhale the vapour, and you get the hand to mouth action that is so hard to get over when you give up. I also quite like that Ive converted 2 other smokers, who now dont smoke fags and are very pleased!

    I started with look-a-likes too, but very soon moved to eGo, with batteries that last. Why pay twice, buy a serious kit from the beginning.
    Good advice above.

    I too started with look a likes, but I thought I was clever as I went for the Realis, which was supposed to be better than the run of the mill stuff and you could fill the cartos with juice when they were empty.

    I needed to have a replacement that mirrored the size of a cigarette, I wanted it and had to have it, regardless what everyone else said.

    But it was a big mistake, lots of money down the drain, although I only spent about the same as smoking while I did it. The Realis lasted a few weeks, but I didn't touch a true cigarette from the first moment I tried it.

    Conclusion, go for something bigger, you will get used to it very soon, but if you have to, then go for something you want to use. Anything is better than smoking and e-cigs are a hell of a lot healthier for you.
    They really are, the more research comes to light, the better they get

    That's not to say that if you can give up fags without them it would be better for you, obviously that's true, there are no long term results from e-cigs, but the short term results are over overwhelmingly positive.
    Freedom is not worth having if it does not include the freedom to make mistakes.

    I use the Crystal Kit from savingmoneysavinglives.org I know this is not the cheapest available but I have used others that are cheaper and have had issues along the way. I have used these for the last year and the only time I had a problem with as battery not working properly they changed it for me straight away without hassle. I also really like the liquid I can get from there because some of the flavours I have not seen anywhere else i.e g-spot and bikini martini which is my personal favorite.
