Started smoking on and off at 14 then smoked regularly at least a pack a day till I was 38 I tried the cig look a like e cigarettes but they didn’t last very long or deliver the amount of nicotine to cut my cigarette habit all the way off I smoked 7 or 8 tobacco cigarettes a day until I found the big battery e cig mods and the tank atomizers I chose the Pure Smoker Legacy with the 18650 battery since it would last all day and the Vulcan rebuildable genesis style atomizer tank since it could be rebuild for less than $0.50 when it needed to be rebuilt due to the heating coil failing I have been using this setup for around a year now and have been tobacco cigarette free ever since. I do strongly believe that the only reason that state and local government has a problem with e cigs is that they do not produce the high tax revenue that tobacco does and the drug companies have problems because you are not buying their snake oil that will not make you quit in any way just like a heroin addict will go back to the horse with out methadone smokers will go back to tobacco with out inhaled nicotine. Tobacco lobbyists want to get the government to help them sell more tobacco by trying to sanction the e cig market and its supporters by imposing undue tax and regulations to remove them from the market that way you would have to use their poison. Buy the drug companies snake and pay the kings tax. I am smoke free by choice not by force and how I got there from a 20 plus year tobacco habit is my choice as well and any one that thinks they have the right to say I should be forced to return to tobacco so they can line their pockets can kiss my ASS
