so, i have a kid on the way, and i have been told by the trouble and strife that im not allowed to smoke in the house when the baby comes. i told her she can bollocks as there is no way i am smoking outside, i will smoke in MY computer room, where she need never go.
she was still adamant that im not smoking in the house, but as far as im concerned she might as well shout at cat, as smoking outside is not an option.
then she tells me about these electronic cigarettes.. they warm up nicotine vapour and warm up and light up at the end just like a real cigarette.. and also it feels like your smoking a cigarette which is a bonus, as i have tried on of them inhalators before [which you use to try to quit] and theyre like sucking on nothing, which is generally annoying.
has anyone tried these before?.. or does anyone use them regular or know anyone that uses them?
apparently theyre cheaper than regular fags, and ofcourse less dangerous for you, and best of all, theyre safe to smoke indoors and around kids and stuff, which is the main reason i want to try it, as i point blank refuse to go outside to smoke, and i could do without the ing earache off the missus |

untrue.
dont waste your time with them. there was a study done on these electronic cigarettes and it showed they all contained the harmful carcinogens which the claimed to not have. i bought one, took a few puffs and now its collecting dust on the shelf. i continue to smoke cigs and hookah. |

I thought that only wator vapor comes out when you exhale.
Link to the study please? My friend just bought a bunch of these and thinks they are the best thing ever and he is about to start selling them amongst his friends so if they are really just as bad I kinda wanna warn him. |

i cant remember who did the study... frig....
but, yes, it is water vapour which comes from heating a gel (found inside the "filter" which is made of whatever chemicals they put in it. maybe those chinese even put lead in it for you. |

| Tried it once, it leaves an awful taste in your mouth =/ I actually enjoy the taste and smell of cigarettes, and with this, it's all gone. Me and a bunch of friends tried it, no one has sticked to it. |

They taste bad even with the flavoring drops? He has like 25 different little bottles of flavor from menthol, to non menthol, to fruits, etc. |

Looking for a compromising solution is certainly better than not giving a at all. |

flavoring drops? Didn't know there was something like that to add to it. But still sounds awful though, I don't want menthol or any fruit taste, I just prefer cigarette taste :p |

I bought one of these last October, after seeing a friend with one.
As soon as I started smoking it, I completely switched from tabbaco to the 'Intelicig', it took a while to get used to, but after the initial day I never thought about rolling up again, all my nicotine cravings were being satisfied by the nicotine cartridges.
I smoked it in work, round the house, in bars and in clubs.
After just under 2 months of using, I cut down on the cartridges and I quit smoking. So now I'm smoke free and feel a million times better for it :D.
Do they work? Yes.
Are they worth it? Yes.
Should you buy one? Yes.
