    E-cigs / vaping

    Anyone make the switch to e-cigarettes? In an attempt to quit cigarettes I bought one of these E-Cigs yesterday from Wal-Mart. It's not bad for a starter-- get that quick nicotine fix, but there's a whole "vaping" community out there.

    Anyone do this?

    I don't smoke cigs regularly, so i dont know but it seems like the ease of use of an e-cig would mean you would actually smoke more? I mean you can just pull it out anywhere, press the lil button and toke away whereas with a regular cig you have to pull out ur lighter, make sure there's no wind etc....

    E-Cig while in office.

    Real cigarettes while at the pub or having a drink.

    I think I'm destined to have a nicotine addiction for life.

    i tried e-cigs once. it just didn't feel right. sucking on some plastic metal thing that puffs in nicotine? i would rather use snus when i can't smoke.

    Vaping right now. Started about 18 months ago,
    Without even trying, my cigarette intake is less than half
    of what it used to be.

    recommended vendors:
    Vapin' In The Cape
    Vaping Zone
    E-Cig Express
    Virgin Vapors

    I have used all above vendors

    I keep saying I'm going to switch to e-cigs, haven't done it yet...I tried a puff off my sisters and it was pretty legit.

    The one she had was thicker than a cig and had a blue light ..I'd want one that looks and feels like a real cig.

    It takes experimentation. There are so many variants.

    My doctor told me I had cancer last week.
    Don't worry, it's only extra light cancer.
    I switched to extra lights last year!
