Ok … My Story is >>>> My pal next door asked me if i had seen a magic cigarette before ….No i said … he said look at this ….Then he puffed away … I thought … No way .. whats that…. He told me he bought it for his wife, but she didnt use it …lol lol … so he sold it to me…. I gave i a try … And on my 1st day of trying it i only had 2 real cigs …. I was well inmpressed with my SELF.|||My story is… One night in June 2008, I’m watching ‘foreign commercials’ on YouTube & I see one for the Runyan e-cig (people sitting at a restaurant vaping, one guy pulls out a real cig and is shooed outside.)

I thought "What the heck, maybe I can get one of these and cut 4 or 5 outta my 25 a day habit with this thing…"

I do a google on ‘em, and found THIS forum. I discovered a group of people not supplementing their smoking but REPLACING it with these things. I thought "Well, I’d never be able to give up the real thing…" but told my sister about it (she was trying to quit completely). We both order kits from Smartfixx.

Within 3 days I lose all desire for real cigs, my last cig is at 11:00pm on July 3. (This is my 92nd day of no smokes–I never went back.)

29 year habit….gone in 3 days! Can I hug someone now? |||Started using the e-cig myself 4/17/2008 and I haven’t had a cigarette since. My chronic bronchitis is gone, wheeze is gone and no more cough. I am older and have smoked 45 years, never been able to quit. But this is not a quit smoking product, it is a smoking alternative product. My husband is estatic that there is no longer second hand smoke in the house or car. Not to mention I can smoke at the Texas Hold’em tables again! 10/17/08 will be 6 months off analog cigs!!!!|||My Story is I accidentally stumbled on this site whilst web surfing and low and behold could NOT believe that a thing like this even existed. Did some serious study on this forum and found what suited me the best for my particular situation. Watched all the great video reviews of lots of E-Cigs. Thanks Guys great work .

Now a week after receiving my 5 DSE103’s and 36Mg juice from MNZ and 2 semi auto cigars and 3 rechargeable Vegas Cigas from Deal extreme I am in E-Cig heaven for the first time in 30 years have gone without a real cigarette for longer than a day and amazingly have NO desire to have one.

I started smoking at the age of 8 yes 8 .

It all started when a friend (he was 9 and corrupted me I tell you the little barsturd) and I were walking to school and got to thinking it would be WAY better to go to the shopping center rather than spend a long boring day at school. So thats exactly what we did, little did I know he was carrying a half full packet of cigarettes AND an evil sexy cum smoke me cigar begging me to light it in his school bag. So we lit up as we walked to the shops trying not to gag on the smoke and to look as cool as we could.

It all turned to sheite when while sitting on the side of the footpath in the shopping center car park a teacher from school sprung us as she was doing some shopping on her day off grrrrrr. And wouldn’t you know I was the idiot with the Cigar hanging out my mouth when we were busted. Well we received a free car ride to school and for the rest of that term never had a lunch break again as our punishment was to sit outside the principles office watching all the other kids play. Oh and my parents were oh so thrilled too by the way NOT.

I was hooked from that day on unfortunately. It’s the smell when you opened a fresh packet and they called cum smoke me - well jesus that’s what I did for 30 years.

So thanks to all on this forum for all your help and am so enjoying this new hobby and I am feeling so much better.

My favorite flavoring so far is the 36Mg Tobacco Nic cut with 30% VG and about 10% pernod (god I love that stuff). Its an absolutely amazing taste and has a nice kick to it also.|||I got my first e-cigarette from my sister back in February ‘08. I was curious to try it, perhaps cut down my 15 cigs a day habit a little bit and be able to smoke inside when I chose to. I had no intention whatsoever of quitting tobacco altogether.

Come (somewhere in) May ‘08 (not even sure exactly when !), I was only smoking two tobacco cigs a day by now, my pack of smokes was empty after my ‘evening smoke’. I crushed it up and chucked it and simply couldn’t be bothered to open a new pack the next day for my ‘morning smoke’ !

Haven’t touched a tobacco cig since, after a smoking habit of more than 25 years I simply let go of it and have never looked back. Can’t stand tobacco anymore…

This is a most excellent forum with many friendly and helpful members who kindly (and patiently !) answer the myriad of questions that newbies will undoubtedly have, as e-smoking requires quite a bit of a learning curve. Good on ya’ guys&gals, excellent work !

Cheers,

I decided to use the ecig I had bought months earlier. I googled ecig comparisons, and found Lea’s video’s on comparisons, along with smoking techniques, and dripping. I then found this forum, and started ordering tons of different ecigs, liquids, cartridges, I bought a carton of Kool softs, on sat. after smoking a carton in less than 3 days. I have 2.5 packs still left…

I bought from Puresmoker, Njoy, Janty, and went to Janes house, and learned to be professional about this newfound obsession. I had to find a Kool substitute cause I was killing myself, and my family.

I started smoking when I was nine, quit at 15, started again at 21, I turn 50 in a few months. My Dad passed away 3 weeks ago, he had emphisyma. I decided 2 weeks ago to give it my best shot, to cut back, and quit. I have had asthma for over 25 years to boot. I have tried the patch, nicorette, zyban, hypnosis, the latest pills, the name escapes me.

Never, have I had so much fun, at the same time, so little desire to smoke.

I am loving this….on top of it I have lost over 10 lbs, in the last 2 weeks

ecigs/e.liquids, and you guys ROCK

Thanks for the new lease on life

smilin out|||Hey, Smilin, great story, and I am so glad to hear I helped you to get there. That’s why I do these videos. What model and brand did you go with?|||Hi, my name is Scott i am 33 years old and I’m a nicotine addict…….thanks

I had been smoking since i was 16 and decided in August this year to give up on my birthday. I figured at 33 that i had been smoking for more than half my lifetime and that wasn’t good.

So my birthday comes and i still got a few cigs left so i just had to finish them off

2 days after my birthday i stop cigs. I used the 4mg nicotine gum for 3 days, at that point thats the longest i’d ever been without a ciggie so i was quite pleased with myself even at that point.

My gums where running low so decided to see if i could get them cheaper on e-bay.

I started looking for inhalers and a load of ecigs turned up in the search.

I looked and thought rather hard at them as they seemed alot more expensive than a pack of gums , but i liked the idea and i’m a bit of a gadget freak so i took the plunge and bought a smart smoker starter kit DSE101 it was.

Now i recieved it in good time , i still hadnt had a ciggie charged it up and used it for a day or too and all was well. but as i was new to the ecig i think i smoked it dry and it gave up the ghost. I think that was beause i believed the 1 cart = 1 pack myth. That’s when i found this forum as i searched for advise.

Anyway i sent the cig back to the seller as faulty , he took it back no probs and gave me a full refund including postage, can’t fault the guy.

Anyways i loved that little cig when it worked so after browsing here i ordered a dse901b starter pack from Simon and havent looked back since.

Ofcourse now my ecig collection is more than i require and i’m still buying these great little gadgets but the best thing is i havent had a real cigarette since 24th August 2008 so that 6 weeks ago.|||I smoked cigarettes for over 30 years. After several failed attempts I decided to have one more go at quitting cigarettes at the start of this year.

I joined a 3 month NHS stop smoking program, one to one with a councillor. As other NRT products had failed me in the past I was offered and decided to try Zyban.

Although Zyban enabled me to get through the first few weeks of withdrawal I started to suffer from various other quite worrying symptoms.

As in previous attempts to quit cigarettes I also became very depressed even though Zyban is an anti-depressant.

At one stage my councillor suggested that I also took another anti-depressant drug. My doctor decided this was very unwise, something to do with an increased risk of seizure.

Eventually I could not stand the Zyban anymore and threw the remainder in the bin.

After 4 months of non smoking the depression was absolutely awful. I decided that a shorter ‘happy’ life was better than a longer life of total misery.

I was about to buy a carton of 200 cigarettes when I came across an advertisement on the internet for e-smoking.

I have never looked back. I have no wish to return to normal cigarettes. I have a lot more energy than I did when I was smoking cigarettes. I am no longer depressed.

E-cigarettes saved me from returning to my old habit. I would definitely be smoking normal cigarettes today if it were not for this product.

Other NRT products do not work for some of us. Banning e-cigarettes would confine myself and no doubt a multitude of others to a far less healthy life and possibly a premature death. In my opinion it would be a step back into the dark ages.|||I came across ecigs by accident while looking for a gift on an online shopping site. After reading around a bit and finding this brilliant forum I ordered an RN4072 classic from Smokester. I was sure before I got it that it was overrated and was just an expensive gimmick. My thoughts were that it might replace a couple of cigarettes a day, I had no intention of trying to give up, I’ve tried before and missed the habit terribly. The nicotine is easy to replace but the act of smoking is not easily replicated and that’s what I can’t bring myself to do without.

I didn’t like the taste at first and it irritated my throat so I couldn’t use it much. Luckily I had read about diy juice and was able to dilute the cartridge juice to make it bearable. After some experimentation and getting acceptable taste and vapour I almost completely stopped smoking. Two weeks after getting my ecig I finished the last of my tobacco, it tasted awful and I haven’t smoked since. I’ve been cigarette free since 25th July, I haven’t missed them at all and much prefer esmoking. I’m reducing my nicotine intake too, I’m planning to go down to a steady, low maintenance dose, I’m not sure that I want to completely stop nicotine. There are some health benefits to nicotine but I think a very low dose will do for me.

I’ve spread the word with my smoking family and friends and hope that regulations, tests and trials will soon confirm that esmoking is a safe, effective cessation method. It’s been a lifesaver for me, a miracle and I wish all smokers could have access to cheap, safe, esmoking products.someone in a forum I was in was talking of buying an e cig never heard of it before and was intrigued, been trying to quit for ages and thought it might help, I looked on net and found Simons site and found this forum (I dont post much but read it a lot ) gives lots of good advice and information so bought e cig 14th august, I am still smoking real cigs but have cut down a lot and hope to eventually use just the e cig and then reduce the nicotine. I feel a lot healthier when I have only been using the e cig I don’t cough and chest feels clear and not tight, but I still crave a real cig and buy them some days but down to less than 10 a day from smoking 30 a day before, and have been smoking for about 35 years and tried countless times to kick it. so hopefully I will stop smoking soon and just use e cig but from 30 to 10 is a good start and using the e cig has made that possible"its legal here kate…" This is the internet Trog, not your front room.
