Just had an ego super duper ecig arrive (as recommended by tropical bob). serious nicotine hit (ordered the heavy duty liquid). Of course they forgot the refills which are part of the kit and sent the wrong spare vaporizer units. but that will get straightened out. as a long time smoker (2-5 packs a day, no kidding used to carry 2 packs of newports and 3 camel unfiltered figuring the camels were like a steak and the newports a salad). the ecig gives one hell of a nicotine hit. But it is not fun. Prefer snuff. I have ordered some mini super snus packs and glycerine and will report in. Hope they’re better than the e liquid. always as willing to confess my stupidity as to contribute my knowledge: I confess to all. Order dekralingse (sp???) cinnamon and nutmeg under the impression they were snuffs and I did them. First time plain second time with some hedges. I must admit they were not bad with the Hedges. And gratitude to Xander once again for explaining the difference between spice and snuff. took the rosemary and oregano out of my snuff collection. Now I have to learn how to cook. (actually I use cinnamon and and nutmeg in my turkish coffee. I wonder if I mixed all three and ground them very find and added some Hedges…) think the ecig, white elephant and turkish coffee has addled me.
Yeah I’m really not a fan of e-cigarettes. They taste artificial to me. I really like the sensory experience of using tobacco. The way I see it if I were gonna start using e-cigs I might as well just throw in the towel and buy some nicotine patches.
the e cig is kinda neat for if you want to pretnd smoke sometimes
I never used an ecig but I imagine they would be quite useful in satisfying the habitual urge to suck on a cigarette (I used the pipe for that)
i never liked the e-cigs… tried one, i got the nic hit, but it just felt… heavy, it was nowhere near as enjoyable as even smoking a cigarette. i love my snuff, and like the snus. apart from my strange recent sudden urges to actually smoke again, they are holding me well. might get a small pouch of tobacco, probably auld kendal. wonder if my tobacco shop would sell me just enough for a couple of rollies at a time now and then.
I use e-cigs (PV) and I’m 22 days cigarette free, thanks to snuff, snus and PV. Granted in not “real smoking”, but it does keep the hands busy, satisfies the urge to puff, and can be a hobby all its own (for the custom tinkerers out there). I love my snuff and snus for the complex flavors and still smoke pipe baccy, but now cigarette smoke smells like arse, LOL.
I just joined the vaping world last week, mostly to see what all the fuss was about. I was actually able to give up cigarettes about 4 years ago thanks to snuff and snus but I have hopes that occasional vaping will take my tobacco consumption down a bit. I got this eGo-T set with CE5 Clearomizer tanks and I am happy with it so far: Right now I am vaping 24mg juice from the store I bought the unit from. I’m planning on getting the WTA (Whole Tobacco Alkaloid) juice from aromaejuice.com as it is supposed to be much different from nic only juice.

I like the now and then…I get White Owls, gold foil pack two for $1, cheap crabp but I smoke them and it reminds me good my snus really is! I’ve had maybe ten of these cigarillos in seven cig free months and it is a nice change up. *** Ooops, your in the UK, just saw that…anyway I’m sure you have what we always called the “nickle cigar” there!
