I hope this helps at least one person, this is the absolute truth. The store bought junk didn’t work, the refills were as expensive as a real pack of cigs, I have had the patch, cold turkey, gum, chantix, all of which made me still want a cigarette and I did buy more cigarettes, then I remembered recently the pleasant flavor of some of the first go around rechargeable mini cig style ones I also had ordered a year ago online, but they were awkward and unreliable, I tried to get them charged back up and no luck, so I looked online and saw these new bigger better batteries and small tanks, I purchased them cheaply, found a local store with some delicious desert flavored juices, 24mg strength was suggested as I was a chain smoker at night, about 35 a day total, for 20 years, now I have had a pack of regular cigs around as a crutch, just in case my battery dies or I run out of liquid (which is rare) when I actually have a real cig as the others said, it is remarkable how absolutely disgusting it tastes and smells, it blows me away that within a week or two I cant really stand a real cig, and I thought i loved them before, except for the wheezing, spitting brown gunk from lungs in the shower every morning (every smoker knows what I mean) my clothes smell fresh, my teeth are whiter, I feel way better, I have moved down to 18mg strength and enjoyed some 12mg strength at a store the other day, almost all the staff of multiple stores are down to 6mg strength nicotine and lower, and surprisingly zero nic in many cases, this truly is the ONLY thing that has ever made me NOT want to smoke a cigarette at all, ever, and when I occasionally do smoke a cig I have to put it out and go and refill my tank which isn’t huge but isn’t ridiculously small and filled with polyfill like those store Big Tobacco brand junk, I was a HardCore smoker, and I promise you that this method really works, there is some degree of maintenance and switching of flavors to find the right thing for you, most like fruity flavors, I like cappuccino coffee, custard, eggnog, etc, found a key lime pie delicious, no way can a cig ever compare, and I am not smoking anything, just vaporizing a liquid with four ingredients vg/pg/nicotine and h20 oh and food flavor, not 5000+ carcinogenic and extra purposely added addictive chemicals that the tobacco companies have added to traditional cigarettes, 4 ingredients compared to thousands ? its black and white, very obvious which is safer and definitely better, real ex smokers are raving about how we can breathe again, smell, taste, etc, they have nothing to gain, no hidden agenda, they speak the truth and are so happy, because we all knew how impossible it was to stop smoking and all had tried and failed, what depressed me the most was speaking with a woman I worked with who informed me she had quit smoking over 10 years ago, and I congratulated her, she said you know what ?, everyday I’m driving home in my car I see someone smoking a cig and ask myself, why can’t I have one? she admitted to me that even ten years off them, she still missed them, I realized then that I would probably never stop if that were to be the case and would definitely die young. My dad was a heavy smoker many years, he quit for a few years at about 50yrs old amazingly, but he too gave in again, and when he passed away a few years ago at 63 just as he was about to retire, it was from a smoking related issue the doctors informed us, the big tobacco companies shouldn’t worry too much as there are many many people who just love their cigs and will not even consider an electronic version, a few weeks ago my brother was here and saw my fountain pen sized stainless device, he looked scornfully at it and exclaimed with disdain that it looked very unusual, and he detested the chemicals in a liquid and he had tried the gas station ones and they sucked and not delivered as promised and quit working half way through the day, I told him this has evolved with new engineering and smart people designing better more reliable batteries and reservoirs and tasty flavors, he shook his head and lit a nasty analog cigarette, so as you can tell, many closed minded people will stick with the cancerous burning leaves and paper, glue, toxins arsenic. tar etc because they cant accept change or think it looks strange, luckily many more hopefully will discover the safer alternative, and the most important thing is that these can and will stop you from smoking a cigarette, maybe not the first day, or first flavor, or a wick that is dry or a leaking tank may put many lazy people off, it takes a bit of good advice and experimenting to find what works, but there are many of us willing to tell someone a good affordable setup, and help them on their way to living maybe 30 years longer. Sorry for the diatribe, I had to get it out, maybe save a life , good luck everyone, lets pray they don’t take away our safer alternative and trustworthy path to quitting cigs. Footnote regarding the Legislation in the EU and USA The big tobacco brand ecigs are useless, expensive, hundreds of thousands of ex smokers are healthier and happier with their batteries and little ejuice tanks, don’t force us back to nasty carcinogenic burning cigs with thousands of toxic purposely added addictive lethal chemicals, you as world leaders are supposed to have our best interests at heart, it’s why we voted you in, don’t be hypocrites and bend to the Tobacco and pharmaceutical companies money, have some guts and do the right thing, let the addicted ex smokers use the safer product, they feel better, regaining control of ones life, its amazing and liberating. I bought many pathetic useless Tobacco company owned ones before I discovered real devices that work reliably and don’t fail, which caused me and many to return to the cowboy killers, until we discovered real refillable tanks, and working batteries and delicious artisan juices. I’m sure the tobacco companies you bow down to will still sell plenty of their cancer sticks, leave those of us who are sick of them alone and use a safer product to quit the nasty habit you yourselves banned virtually every where, claiming we are lepers yet you want us to keep killing ourselves and costing the medical industry billions which we pay insurance and pharmaceutical companies, your logic is not logic it’s greed and blatant corruption and hypocritical. #EUecigban #ecigs #EU Good luck people
