AdamW Posted March 10, 2012 Report Share Posted March 10, 2012 I am thinking of trying them and looking for recommendations! My current smoke is Golden Virgina, so looking for something similar! Have any of you tried them? Adam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
margun Posted March 10, 2012 Report Share Posted March 10, 2012 I never tried e-cigs, just packed up cold turkey...I think you may struggle to find an e-cig which is anything like Golden Virginia! I have a couple of colleagues who tried them and one managed to give up for about 8 months, he rated them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harrypen Posted March 10, 2012 Report Share Posted March 10, 2012 I have tried them,,the strong (heavy smoker type) have a taste i couldnt get on with ,,medium better the efag is heavy ended due to the battery so is awkward to lip hang some of the cheaper ones have got duff rechargeable batteries make sure you buy at least 2 sets for when your out and about and cant recharge or get a usb charger you can plug in your car after all of the above they have worked for 3of the 5 people i know who used them my spirit was willing ,,,,, but my flesh was weak hth harrypen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M.I.A Posted March 10, 2012 Report Share Posted March 10, 2012 Im on one at current, i much prefer it to golden virginia (my prefered tobacco) i use the menthol type and find it very satisfying. One thing i struggle is knowing when to stop, as they dont run out like a cigerette would. Worth it alone to stop stinking like an ash tray, its not until you have stopped smoking for a while you realise how other smokers stink!

-oXo- Posted March 10, 2012 Report Share Posted March 10, 2012 (edited) E-cigs are just a gimmick though arn't they? Do you really need fake smoke coming out of your mouth? Nicorette do a good little inhaler that did the job for me. I found I was missing the having something to hold part if you get what I mean, couple other people I know used them and rated them too. Comes in different strengths too. http://www.nicorette.co.uk/products/inhalator Edited March 10, 2012 by -oXo- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lucas Posted March 10, 2012 Report Share Posted March 10, 2012 Tried the ones not desinged to quit smoking but so you can smoke inside. I had the problem of knowing what equates to one cig. Taste less bitter than cigs but dont seem to get the same out of them. Even tho they have nicotine in them and the same/stronger amount.

Breastman Posted March 11, 2012 Report Share Posted March 11, 2012 Just make sure you don't get the same type as this guy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
39TDS Posted March 11, 2012 Report Share Posted March 11, 2012 I did try the electronic things because my son bought me one. Didn't do it for me but he reckoned they helped him. I just stopped. Might have had Nicorette gum a couple of times but mostly just cold turkey. Haven't touched one in 9 months but even today thought I might like one. The urge is still there now but not a strong urge and deffo not one that takes much shrugging off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
