Electronic Cigarette deal thread (Post all deals in the Wiki).
 

I have changed this thread to a thread related to all deals regarding Electronic Cigarettes. Please add deal links to the wiki!

These retail on their website for $149, Amazon has them for $68.64 + $4.49 shipping.
Price dropped again!

** EDIT **
I guess the seller of these eCigs is no longer selling on Amazon. He emailed me as a customer and said that he is now selling at the following two websites. I thought I'd update the thread and the wiki in case anyone is still looking for these eCigs. This seller has a great variety and a great reputation. I have purchased from him four separate times, and friends and family have bought from him as well, and we had nothing but positive experiences. Fast shipping too. I can highly recommend him to you. :)

Looks like a cigarette, tastes like a cigarette, feels like a cigarette, but it's not a cigarette, it's much better, contains nicotine but no tobacco.

This one is very high quality, it has a great nicotine taste and good draw.

I bought one for $139 about 6 months ago to help me quit smoking, and was now looking for a kit for my sister. I love this little cigarette! Just like smoking without all the carcinogens and other stuff that's bad for your body.

This one also has a more advanced technology. Most e-cigs have a separate atomizer that needs replacing after 6 months or so, because the internal coils wear out. The listing for this one says it has a built-in atomizer that doesn't ever need replacing because the coil parts are in the disposable filters.

For comparison pricing, here's a link to the retailers website:

Here is a link to a reputable seller with integrity. He sells 6 different E-Cigs, and has something for everyone. Great customer service and great reviews from buyers:

http://electroniccigaretteoutlet.ecrater.com/

1. $31.63 + $4.79 shipping, mini cig, comes in a box that looks like a real cig pack and holds the cig and 6 nicotine cartridges (included).
http://www.bonanzle.com/booths/ECigSales

http://electroniccigaretteoutlet.ecrater.com/

2. $27.27, 2 cigs with 10 nicotine cartridges, from Deal Extreme. (many people in this thread have said that the reviews of this company are bad and the products are very cheaply made. Some have even canceled their orders of this product based on the reviews.)
http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.11211

3. $52.63 + $4.79 shipping, mini cig, comes with 2 cigs, atomizer, 5 nicotine cartridges, 2 batteries, and charger
http://www.amazon.com/EC3-E-Cig-E...380&sr=1-9

4. $72.74 + $4.79 shipping, mini cig, only 2 pieces (no external atomizer), comes with 2 cigs, 5 nicotine cartridges, wall charger, and USB charger.
http://www.amazon.com/EC1-Electro...80&sr=1-10

5. $134.95 The ecigs that everyone *seems* to agree are the best quality are anything by Janty. The Janty Kissbox [jantyusa.com] is known for being reliable, as it comes with a dual switch (manual and automatic). For esmokers that like to drip, a manual switch is less likely to foul than an automatic. Janty also has good warranties and service, but they are very expensive. Janty holds the patent on their styles of cigs so it is much harder to get a cheaper knock off. Their e-liquid is also very highly rated and known for not clogging atomizers.

6. $29.99 shipping included dse-901 e-cigarette-mart [e-cigarette-mart.com] 2 batteries, 1 atomizer, 5 cartridges, charger. This is a good starter pack with a reasonable price. If you are just starting e-smoking, be sure to get additional atomizers when you purchase your first unit because you may burn them out. You will also want to purchase additional liquid to refill your cartridges with. You can wash your atomizers and your cartridges, and you can also restuff and refill the cartridges yourself. Ecigarette mart is in China and is a drop shipper for one of the three manufacturers of e-cigarettes. There are many different styles of dse 901 with many different names. This is a current unit that is very similar to what other sites sell. It is a reliable unit if used correctly. You may wish to get additional batteries as well so everything comes at once. Shipping from China can take more than a week!

7. DSE901 (white) - 2 batteries, 1 atomizer, 5 cartridges, charger - $34.99 + free shipping from www.electroniccigarettesales.com. Take 5% off with coupon ecigreview for a shipped total of $33.24.

Same size as the "mini cig" but higher quality and better tasting. I've personally purchased and tried everything on the market and returned everything but the best which was the NPRO.

The TRUTH about "HEALTH" E-Cigs. *Warning* Generally purchased in E-Bay & Deal Extreme

No matter how good a deal may be for purchasing electronic cigarettes, there are few brands to really watch out for! (NOT ALL E-CIGS ARE MADE BY THE SAME MANUFACTURER! Obviously.)

It is proven that HEALTH E-Cigs are the WORST quality electronic cigarettes. These devices have 1/4 defect rate (reported by customers) and taste no where near as good as how electronic cigarette's supposed to taste like. In fact, customers have reported that HEALTH cigs' atomizers "burn out" very quickly and will soon taste like cat urine (as experienced e-cig smokers would agree).

I advise new electronic cigarette users to RESEARCH before purchasing their first kit.

Good luck everyone!

please, just quit.

you dont need that fake cig..

come on now, will power people

Maybe you never had to try quitting? Not as easy as you would think/

Nobody likes a quitter

Amen!

I guess you are a perfect being of some type. Please enlighten us with your ability to avoid all temptation.

I was just diagnosed with COPD the other day....this is just what I need. I had no idea these were available. Part of the habit is not just the nicotine, it's the habit of the habit...
Thank-you!

I guess these would also be great for people who can't be without a cigarette on an airplane, etc...

LOL, you are a moron.


I'm not a smoker, but I can recognize the potential benefits in having these things, assuming the "patch" isn't your thing

One of the pictures shows the smoker exhaling fumes. This would not seem to be an airplane friendly device

Actually it's just a water type vapor. I have one of these. There's no smoke, no smell. I'm in a small office with a couple of non-smokers and they approve of me using it at my desk.
But trying to explain that to the captain of the plane would be another thing all together. Heck, I wouldn't even try to take it on the plane or put it in my luggage without being fearful that someone at the TSA would take it, either for their own personal use, or just from fear of not knowing what it was.
I should also add that if you do buy one, make sure you place an order for replacement atomizers closely behind the initial order. I had an atomizer go dead in about a week. But because it took a week for the place I bought it from to actually get it to me, my warranty was up by the time it died. Which left me a week without the e-cig.

I have one of these, the "smoke" you exhale is actually vapor, and it evaporates in just a couple seconds. I have never tried taking mine in a plane or non-smoking restaurant, because I worry about starting a scene. But technically, yes, these are legally not affected by the non-smoking ban.

$70? yikes! get 2 for $27.27 from deal extreme.... also get double the cartridges and cheap refills.

Edit : NM - Found it
Can you post a link? I am looking for one but is hesitant to pay $70 to see if it works for me.

http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.18431

That one.

C'mon people.... don't quit smoking now! We need the tax revenue for the CHILDREN!!!

ROFL!

I love it! We get a thousand trolls in every cigar deal thread. Its only fair that the anti-smoking deals should get one.

That is a good price, but I wonder about the quality of the product because I have heard bad things about the quality of the products bought through Deal Extreme. Also, looking at the picture shown, the ones on DX are considerably longer than a traditional cigarette, and I don't know if I would like that.

I guess if you're new to the product and just want to try it for a good price, then it might not hurt to try the DX ones. I personally have been using the exact one on the Amazon link for about 6 months now, and can attest to it's top quality and performance. :nod:

everyone has a vice. what's yours?

this is a great little device if youre trying to quit smoking!

at least you won't have to worry about your retirement savings lasting you till you're 90.........

Much better product for less

To this I agree--
Quote from cbax :
please, just quit.

you dont need that fake cig..

come on now, will power people --

I had smoked since I was 16-- I smoked over a pack a day for 28 years-- but on New Years Eve This Year My kids broke my cigarettes( and my husbands) Neither me or my husband have had a smoke since then. - 5 weeks-- It is not as hard as you might think-- You just have to fight the wanting to light up for a couple weeks-- Then it gets much better-- I was so stupid to smoke for that long- & waste that much deal money!!.

Does anyone know how much these sell for in the mall kiosks?

That's awesome. Just try to remember that some people are still at the point you were at for 28 years.

How KoOL I CAN USe INfROnt oF ALL Da HoT CHiCKSS thEN I'LL Be COOL

It must be Pride.

If there was a deal on a new type of alcohol that had no health affects do you think people would complain on here?

Meh, dumb question, probably would :P

In any case, I quit smoking. Have not had one for 5 weeks. This is the longest period of time in 16 years. Never have really tried to quit before. I am about 99.9% sure it will last.

I think people can get by without real cigs, but I would never bust on anyone that uses, or is thinking of using one of these as an alternative to real cigs.

For smokers this may be the slickest deal you will ever get in your life. If you don't pull the trigger on this deal, you will be pulling the trigger in real life. I would say give it a shot, if anything get some of your smoking buds to pitch in on one and all of you can try it out. Who knows you might like it, and they might as well.

My 1865 3 cent piece.

Good deal, repped and thumbs up!

Smoking is Good for Health
http://www.healthmad.com/Addictio...lth.102380

Congratulations! :woot:

Now get my little brother to quit, he's been smoking almost as long as you! You don't even want to know how young he was when he started! :eek:

Only on SD will you get people happy about quitting smoking not for their health but for deal money.

Hi all,

I'm planning to quit March 1st. I'm embarrassed to admit how many packs a day I smoke : (

I looked up electronic cigarettes as I've never even heard of them.....there are many different kinds.......anyone who has used these please add your input....VERY INTERESTED!

Thank-you!

Hey, any reason is a good reason :worship:

I've got over 4 months from smoking. I started smoking @ 15, I'm now 20.

It was probably my 10th time quitting, but they say each time you try, the closer you are to quitting. I did it cold turkey, but I had cut down before that. I don't think I've ever smoked more than a pack a day, it was usually 15 tops. Then I cut it down to 3-5 a day, then eventually quit.

Now that may not seem that hard, but let me tell you in AA, EVERYONE smokes. ALL THE TIME. All my friends smoke, except one.

So it is possible, and I'm sooo glad I did it. I save money, I feel better, I look better, I know I've saved myself 10-20years of life, and thousands of dollars down the line.

My tips: Drink lots of tea instead of smoking. it's healthy, it gives you a boost, and it's a healthy habit to cover up your old bad one.

Anyways, Good luck to all quitters! For those that don't want to quit, you may someday, so just keep this in the back of your mind! :)

Hmm I was 14

We need less people on the planet so if anything people should be smoking more

Seriously though smoking is a filthy habit that kills you and everyone else within distance to smell the sidestream smoke so I applaud anyone who is going to make the battle to kick the habit.

For people who think it is just a willpower issue you're a fkn moron, there are millions of dollars worth of technology put into that innocuous looking little cig and it's all designed to make your body PHYSICALLY dependent on the substance.

I would encourage anyone who smokes to watch this video on how tobacco products are made. The "tobacco" in cigarettes has about as much similance to a real tobacco leaf as a mcnugget has to a chicken breast lol

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QkTMx-1G0RQ

Good point, repped. ;)

I was 12.

Will this be a good product for me?

I always wanted to smoke regularly, but didnt because of fear of health issue.

Now with this... I can smoke without that fear!

is 0% nicotin absolutely safe? in for 1 if it is.

My little brother was even younger, and a stupid ex friend of mine actually gave him cigarettes early on when he first started. :mad:

I was 14 months... Common people, this isnt something to brag about.

Not bragging. Just saying it doesn't matter when you started, you can always quit.

Agreed, there was nothing wrong with cbax's post, despite the retarded responses he received. Cbax was even polite, using the word "please." :nod:
In addition, his post to rep point ratio is vastly superior to every single troll who criticized him or posted similar nonsense - that's normally the case when something like this happens.

"Common" people this isn't something to make fun of, if anything.

This looks far better and cheaper than others. 2 cig, 10 refills and charger for $27. Sweet. I would buy this one rather than other junkies..

Thanks.

Any product that can help a person quit gets a thumbs up from me!! The key word here is help a peson, not make a person quit. Keep trying. The patch worked for me,
(Smoke free for 8 years)

I agree - congratulations and good luck to all those that have quit and those that are trying! :worthy:


Highly commendable! I wish I could get my dad and brothers to quit - my dad has been smoking for 40 years, started when he was 14. Now, I get it back then. They didn't know ANYTHING about the horrible effects of smoking.

But my brothers, who are 18 and 23? We grew up with the information about what it can do to you, and they still started! :mad: Oh, and my brother who is 18 can't of course smoke cigarettes while he's at military school, so what does he do? He chews instead! :vomit: Yeah, great alternative. :rolleyes:

I wish I could get them to quit - it drives me crazy!! Especially now that I have little ones, come on, you won't even quit smoking for your nephews/grandbabies?

Agreeeeeeeeeeeee

LOL yeah that picture looks like she was blowing smoke off a pen

it is my opinion that quitting cigarettes is harder than quitting heroin

i smoked cigarettes from 15 years of age until 50 years of age.
at fifty, i quit.
at 51 years of age, i had my heart attacks and open heart surgery.
i have the cred to say it;

JUST STOP.
i used toothpicks; hard round ones.
i kept chewing on the toothpicks; two boxes of them.
when the toothpicks were gone, so was my ADDICTION.

when people try to encourage you to stop and you respond negatively,
you indicate just how deep your addicition is.
you smell like an ashtray, you look weak, people don't want you in their houses,
you're ruining your health, and you pee away tons of money.

there is no VALID reason to smoke.

go ahead... dump on me, i really won't mind; if i can get through to even ONE person,
it will be worth the abuse.

It sounds crazy, but I used a book called The Easy Way to Quit Smoking [amazon.com] by Allen Carr to quit smoking. I smoked about a pack a day for 11 years, and I haven't had a drag since September. He doesn't use scare tactics at all, he just makes you think about quitting smoking in a different way. He even tells you to keep smoking while you read the book. The best part - it really did make it easy to quit! No patches, gum, pills, or even will-power. I highly recommend it if you are serious about quitting smoking.

my mom said never quit in life, btw i only smoke the cocaine purple haze the real stuff i'll sell it to you cheap

I know this might be obvious but I hope this may help someone out. I've been off cigs for about 2 weeks now and this has been probably my 8th attempt at quitting. I've tried the patch and failed, tried the gum and failed, tried medications and failed. What I didn't realize till now is that I've been only concentrating on the chemical part of quitting smoking which all I mentioned above covers, but I completely leave the habit of smoking untouched (damn oral fixation). :tongue:

What I actually did was sit down and think about every time I needed a cig, one when I wake up, one when I wait for the bus, one for my morning work break, one at lunch, etc. Then I came up with a plan to do something else that will help keep my mind totally off smoking, chewing gum when I wake up, listen to music while I wait for the bus, get tea on my work break, don't step outdoors for lunch then chew on a gum.. etc.

I'll admit that the crave isn't gone yet, but I'm slowly replacing my habits and I'm proud to say I'm slowly feeling less urge to smoke.

Oh and last thing, you WILL get a bad case of the smokes... where you want one soooo bad you'll do anything, and all you can think about is smoking... when this happens, try your best to hold it together and go play video games or watch a movie, the urge will pass.

;) Good Luck!

Nicotine addictions are very hard to overcome.

I have helped several people quite cold turkey, but it does take quite a bit of doing.

Here's a little something that might enlighten those trying to quite.

When you first start smoking and intake nicotine, your body fights violently to rid itself of the substance...let's pretend you had a beautiful living room with white carpet and someone ran through it with muddy shoes...wouldn't you want to clean it right away?...time after time, no doubt you would tire of cleaning up and give up the fight.

Well, if no one longer ran through with muddy shoes, perhaps you could get it all clean again right?

Now, the nicotine. A nicotine addiction can be paralled to the Pavlov dog experiment. As many smokers will attest, there are many "triggers" that invoke the need to smoke a cigarette. For some it's a drinking a cup of coffee, seeing an ashtray, or finishing a meal, or smelling someone else's smoke, the taste of food in your mouth or seeing someone smoke a cigarette on the TV show you're watching. There are countless "triggers" and they are all different person to person.

The ONE trigger that is the same and the STRONGEST for all smokers is this. When your nicotine levels begin to drop and go beyond a certain level, your body SCREAMS for nicotine. This is why it's so hard to stop, after the first day or two most can't handle this trigger any longer...they don't give their body a long enough time to purge all the nicotine.

If you do it right, you can quit after 7 days...doubt if you will but I've seen it happen, on multiple occasions. You have to get rid of all the "triggers", and you have to aid your body in purging the nicotine (Vitamin C and the likes), brushing your teeth after you eat is a must. Help from your family and friends is almost crucial, and prayer only helps.

One lady that stopped, said that after the 3rd day, she began to smell this funny/gross smell in her house...on the fourth day, she realized it was the smell of cigarettes in her home.

Anywho, there you are...it's not gimmicky, or expensive, and it works.

Some people simply have an oral fixation (this is where gum comes in...or something else to occupy your yapper).

Congrats... I quit 1.5 years ago now using the patch. It was probably the 5th or 6th time I tried quitting. In my case, I learned something about the process each time I tried and failed that made this time a success.

Previous attempts I learned the following:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The first few days when I kept wanting a cigarette, I realized it was my body physically reacting to not having the nicotine/other chemicals (that was when I went cold turkey). Once I realized it was something my body was doing as opposed to something I actually wanted, I realized I could get through it. Similar to having an itch that you know if you just let it go (don't scratch), it will pass.

I'm not the victim; I'm the person making the choice to quit. My mom hates when I mention the words "not the victim" - because it sounds "preachy" - but what I mean is that most the times I failed, it was because I went from the initial mindset of wanting to quit to all of a sudden being a victim to my decision, and I found myself negotiating with myself on how I could have another, hating the idea that I couldn't, etc. Though this phase can be chemical, this is more the physical habit of it. Learning to tell myself "I'm not the victim" and reminding myself that I was choosing to quit and not being forced to quit really helped with this phase.

The worst time for me wasn't the first few days, but the second week, because I believed I had beat the addiction, and I could be a social smoker, or just have one here and there (as opposed to my pack-a-day). This was where I failed each time. Realizing that those feelings were simply one more stage that I had to get through in quitting smoking made all the difference.

I almost forgot...reminding myself that by not buying cigarettes, it was one less thing the government was bilking out of me....REALLY helped me succeed too!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

In all my previous attempts, the longest I went without smoking was 10 days. On my final - and successful - attempt, I found that once the first 2 weeks had passed, it became easier and easier to quit. I even ended up cutting my patches in half - though advised not to do that, they worked fine for me and saved money - and I quit using them about 3 or so weeks earlier than was suggested (6/7 weeks instead of 10 weeks if I remember correctly).

Sorry for the long rant. It's just something I'm really proud of doing (quitting after 10 years of 1-2 packs a day), and wanted to share what I experienced/learned in case it helps anyone. While I think about smoking every once and a while (such as now), it's never in a "I wish I could have one" thought or as any sort of craving, but as either a memory, or "I'm so grateful that I quit." Not one day have I regretted my decision.

OP, thanks for this post. My mom's been smoking for nearly 50 years, and I can see her trying something like this in an attempt to quit, herself.

Done..

For those who aren't following me... It took him heart attacks(plural) and open heart surgery. And he's telling the rest of us to "JUST STOP". I'll get right on that, right after my open heart surgery..

$20 on Ebay.

I took it to mean he quit but not soon enough. He is trying to enlighten people such as yourself.

I started smoking two months ago after I saw a picture of Obama smoking.

lol

There wont be any parents/adults to give the money to the children if we keep smoking...I need to quit, but $70 bucks? Seriously?

What a coinkidink... I started hunting after Cheney shot his friend's face off.

LOL j/k.

I'm not sure if you were joking or not....that's the way it often goes though...seeing the "cool kids doing it" as a teen, or starting as a social smoker because your friend smokes when going out...

ive had "going to" friends before. it NEVER happens. they always make excuses and push the date back. If you want to quit, you want to quit now. period. There is no such hing as "going to" when it comes to quitting smoking.

:lmao:

Yes, $70 compared to the $2,000+ a year the average smoker spends on cigarettes?


Yeah, ppfftt, who'd wanna spend $70 to save that kind of money! :doh:

Don't quit nicotine!

lol freudian pwnage:lmao:

My husband said he'd help me with th oral part if I can take care of the nicotine cravings. :lmao:

:lmao:

You do know that site is filled with the biggest bunch of BS any of us has ever seen, right?


By all means, please provide the studies and research to back up that garbage. :rolleyes:


Just because someone spews out something on a blog or so-called "article" does not make it factual. :shake:

I'd be interested in seeing studies and research to either side of the argument (including any backing your statement of "the biggest bunch of BS").

I'd heard, for years, that nicotine in and of itself is harmless. This is the first I've heard of it having any sort of benefit.

:eek:


Wow, it's starting to get a little Cinemax at night in here. :coverlaf:

#
# Wouldn't you feel like a douche having to explain to the people seated around you
as well as the flight attendants that you are actually smoking a "non cigarette"?

How would you explain that one at all?

This product just might work for certain people because it satisfies the additional addictions of sensory input from the hands and mouths. The cigarette is a beastly invention that combines both chemical and sensory/physical stimulation that the cortex cares about.

Take a look at how much you brain cares about its hands and lips.

Or worse, could you imagine the people that start hacking/choking because they can't breathe, due to your "cigarette?" It would make a good sketch on one of those "Candid Camera" type shows.

Looked like I picked a bad day to stop dropping acid...

:lmao:


Go to the website - anybody can submit an article to that website, and they'll publish it!

Just the fact that I've read several that have major spelling and grammar mistakes is enough for me to steer clear of that site. Like I said earlier, let's see some research studies, then we'll go from there.

Doh...sorry about that...I missed the "this site is filled with" part of your reply...thought you were talking about that article, in particular. Thanks for clarifying despite your first reply making perfect sense (after I re-read it).

You wouldn't, because you wouldn't be allowed to do it. :lol:

Now where is the dipless snuff?

Don't fool around with this thing .... go back to your doctor and ask for a script for Chantix. Everyone I know that used it quit. They used it for 3 - 5 weeks and that was enough. Just to be sure, I stayed on it for the full 3 months .... that was 13 months ago and I have not had a smoke since!

It's not cheap, about $120/month but, you will get that back in no time once you stop ... not to mention your health.

No problem. I just meant the actual website, not necessarily the information itself.


That website is awful! :)

Side effects, which include death, suck.

That's pretty cool - never heard of it.

I only know one person who tried this, but it made her very depressed and didn't work.

Prescription Chantix [chantix.com] was my hero.
After 20 years of smoking, 2 packs/day, my DH was able to quick smoking.

Not to troll this thread on...
 

Yes, this device looks and feels like a cigarette with less negative health effects. It may even help those trail off their habit, step down their nicotine intake gradually, etc. Consider it a virgin margarita for an alcoholic.

Non-Smokers -- The item in question shouldn't bother you since it contains no smoke, smell, or 2nd hand effects. Get over it and move along. I'll never buy a tissue cozzie - but I don't troll around and yell that people who do. :)

Smokers -- I'm wearing a patch right now. I'm 5 days into my 4th or 5th attempt at quitting cigarettes or cigars.

Both -- One thing I can guarantee is the number of people telling you what you already know - "you should quit" "smoking is gross" "blah blah blah" starts to sound like a yapping chihuahua. It's rather annoying and all you want to do is kick the dog rather than listen to it yap any longer.

Smoking can be a fun and social activity. I've found I don't have the self control, will power, or whatever you want to call it to have a cigar occasionally so I'm attempting to stop my daily use of them. I'm not doing this because I just realized this habbit is bad for me or I haven't tried before.

Congratulations to those who have quit via medication, cold turkey, will power, etc. It's extremely difficult as you know. I'm hoping to get there some day.

You guys arguing like school kids makes me want to go light up :)

In the future are they going to sell THC cartridges out on the corner? Put it in one of those ball point pen looking electric cigs.. that would be sweet.

I've seen these on DX forever and had no idea what the heck they were for. I thought it was some Asian fad.

Anyhow, the prices there are much lower (assuming comparable quality). DX is a reliable seller but shipping takes a while because they come from the Orient. Here is a link to all their electronic cigarettes and related paraphernalia:

HTH

Going to give it a try, I'll post a review in the review thread when I get it in.

so it's basically a portable hookah? Minus the flavors

Nic gum did me wonders on quitting smoking but it doesn't do squat for me on dipping. Yes I dipped and smoked for about 12 years and was able to quit both due to the gum because smoking was my primary vice. I went about 5 years with nothing but got back into dipping hard. I also think smoking was easier to quit because I do hard cardio workouts. I can dip and do cardio so it's very hard for me to quit. I've tried patches, hypnosis, ... but nothing is working and I am one of those folks that really wants to quit. I can hide it so easily at work that I can do my normal everyday routines and no one will know I have a dip in. I need a pill that either makes you sick when you dip or gets rid of the urge. Sorry I am turning the deals board into a health board.

whatever helps you quit

does someone have a link to the marijuana ones?

Can this be used to inhale other things ?

I believe the addiction will always be there whether you quit or not. Avoiding those "triggers" as mentioned earlier has helped to keep me smoke-free for years. As more time goes by, my resistance to the triggers also builts up, but it will never be as strong as a non-smoker's imo.

They sell them on 15th street in my hood!

I don't smoke, and drink only occasionally but I can empathize with people who are addicted to nicotine/cigarette habit. We all have out vices. But aside from drinking and possibly gambling, few other vices have been as relentlessly pushed on us as smoking.

BUT!!!

I absolutely detest the way some smokers use the world we live in as a giant ashtray. If you must light up, go ahead, but don't toss the butts on the ground or out your car window. And make sure it's been extinguished. I've seen people who ball up their trash and toss it in the trashcan, yet will throw their cigarette butts everywhere. Have some consideration.

agreed...i "quit" cigarettes 3 times just yesterday

Technology is so cool.

I've never smoked a cigarette in my life, but cigarette smokers are some of the nicest people I know.

But what do I know? I'm a pot-head.

he's my idol too! besides picking up smoking i may not pay my taxes as well! if he and his cabinet members can get away with it, why not i!

lmao thanks

You're welcome. =)

I have beerless bottles if anyone wants to come by and take them off my hand.

I used to brew my own beer. Are they big bottles? Do they have USB connections?

Seems like a neat idea. I'd buy one if it werent so much. Hell considering ordering one off deal extreme just to see what they are like.

Then again, i'm not a smoker. Only smoke when I drink. Can not take cigarettes sober unless i'm extremely stressed.. Even then i have a problem with it.

Oh awesome! Thanks so much for the link :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

So what's the verdict??? Which of the linked products are the best? Best value...taste the best, cheap refills etc.??? Has anybody actually tried the specific products that are linked.

Things like this were developed decades ago as safe cigarettes by the cigarette companies. The FDA squashed them since they were considered nicotine drug delivery systems. Very short sighted. Think of all the lives that could have been saved if it wasn't for the FDA.

"Quitting smoking is easy, I've done it a thousand times" - Mark Twain

Try a good pipe with primo tabacco. That will stop you from smoking cigarettes. Nice burl wood pipe in front of a real fire with your favorite weed. OK, now I'm getting silly. But really if you are going to smoke, at least do it right. :)

I did smoke cigarettes for a while. I try like hell not to go back to a pipe again, cause I know I would never leave. I'm still dipping though. No more cigarettes for me.

Would getting addicted to crack help quit smoking? Just wondering, from a scientific stand point if you would be addicted to two things, or if you could use one to get off the other, in theory.

Or FDA squashed them because of tobacco lobbyists? But that is a topic for the podium.:nod:

I don't smoke, but I know plenty of people who do and tried quitting. Sometimes will power isn't enough.

I quit after 7 years, cold turkey. All you need is willpower and the cravings disappear in a couple days. I hate the smell of smoke now.

People replace one addiction with another. That is why you see so many people in NA or AAA meetings who are smoking.

lol, when i quit smoking the first time, FIRST i quit caffeine (i'm a dew and energy drink junky), then when i was ready to quit smoking, i substituted smoking with caffeine... needless to say it DID work, and after about 8 months on a stressful job i decided to start smoking again (which was stupid)

I was going to post the same link except most of them are out of stock. I also highly recommend this seller and the DS901 is a very popular model.

i think this http://www.amazon.com/Electronic-..._dbs_hpc_3 sounds more effecient and cheaper somehow!

Rofl... Just when I thought I had seen everything... :lmao:

:heart:

I quit all tabacco and any smoke for three years. That is a tough time that there. Grandad died and everyone was hysterical. Guess what. I had a cigarette.

I'd smoke too if I had to pay a yearly fee for someone to come out a change my tire in the event that it got flat.

Or, are the Government, FDA and tobacco lobbyists really all in bed together? I mean, look at all the people that profit. Besides the obvious, the medical and dental industries all profit from smokers.

in for one to fool my parents

DID YOU END UP QUITTING OR STILL SMOKING?

Ya got me... good job! :hug:

Chantix was a waste of money for me. Gained 10 pounds in 3 weeks and that pill did nothing but make me feel bad. I went back to the basics. I went on the patch for the 5th time, and as of this day I am 5 months smoke free. Took the patch for 1 month. 23 years of smoking, 2 packs a day and 3 cans of dip a week when i quit. $70 a week I put in a jar and i am over $1000 in savings so far. Thats what i call slick. Keep it up people trying to quit.

They were selling this cigs in the nearby mall. The sales guy was ready to sell same package for $69.99 so I am guessing this is still to much for this e-cig. Unfortunately I wasn't brave enough to try (I quit 16 months ago and I was just afraid to try) but my other half is still smoking, so I look for something that could help. One more thing--I still love the smell of cigarettes.

obama didnt pay his taxes???

Quit smoking is the easiest thing in my life. Trust me, I have done it a thousand times already.

"Exhale vapor, not smoke, so it is legal to smoke in restaurants, malls, airplanes, etc. " Get ready to be harassed!

I wonder if these things make you smell like a smoke-stack too.

How un-original. :P

I think that was accredited to Mark Twain already. I don't really know.

Speaking of weight, another personal lesson I should definately mention (that I learned perhaps too late)....

When deciding to quit, try and plan ahead to what food/beverage you're going to substitute for your craving. I loved peanut butter sandwiches as a child, and would still have them from time to time as an adult. When I quit smoking, I didn't think about planning a substitute, and the next thing I knew, I was eating 2-3 peanut butter sandwiches a day. Ended up gaining 20-30 lbs before realizing it was an issue. Not only that, I found myself craving the sandwiches similarly to how I craved cigarettes (thinking about having one when I got home - while still at school/work). Once I realized what I was actually doing, I started replacing my sandwiches with PG Tips black tea. Got me over the PB habit easily, and knowing how much healthier the tea is made me feel better about it too.

Again, choose your food/drink ahead of time!

Right on...

Definitely do some research before buying an E cig. There are a lot of different ones out there, and I did my research on them before I purchased mine 6 months back.

I chose the one in the OP at a smoke shop that has a few different ones in stock. One was the NJoy, which is a popular brand, but it was really big, kind of like smoking a big cigar. Some seemed really cheaply made, and like they would break easily.

The E Cig in the original Amazon link was the one I settled on, it was $139, which was not the lowest price of the 4 different ones in the store when I bought mine, but it looked just like a cigarette, same size and everything, and it looked really durable. After 6 months with it, I am just as happy as the day I bought it. I haven't had any problems with it at all.

Just a word of advice. Sometimes you get what you pay for. Do some research before you decide. :)

I don't smoke, but now i'm considering it. Damn you OP.

I wonder if these could still damage your lungs. I like the idea but would be interested in hearing more feedback from actual users.

Why do you Christians make everything about your own crap?

It works!
 

This is NOT a good deal. As stated in previous posts, Puresmoker has the best prices. BUT - be warned. You need lots of extra atomizers and nicotine liquid. The e-cig is a true joy but is very, um, touchy. They quit working often and require a lot of care. That said - I smoked 1.5 -2 packs a day for almost 40 years. This e-cig is the only thing that kept me sane without cigs. When I finally got my e-cig, I fell in love! It has no smell, no dirty ashtray and no additives. It _tastes_ wonderful - so much so that a real cig is not pleasurable anymore. You can also smoke candy flavorings like strawberry, mint, chocolate, etc. I strongly suggest you-who-want-quit-or-cut-back go to the e-cigarette forum and do your research before you purchase.

This is much more popular in Europe and is allowed in many bars. So far, it is not illegal anywhere in the U.S. and many offices are allowing it.

It's posted many places on the 'net that the kiosk e-cigs are poor quality, over-priced and unreturnable. Careful

Yes, it's a lot of trouble but SO worth it. I have been off regular (analog) cigarettes for over 2 months now. The e-cig did it!

Also - research Chantrix thoroughly, too before you try it. It has had some nasty side-affects for a lot of folks.

There are also people "addicted" to making some sort of "show" when they are near someone smoking. I have seen them make faces, try to wave smoke away, fake cough, etc. Has anyone used one of these devices in public and have someone react like the above because they do not know it is a "fake" cigarette? Now that would be really funny to see.

I've never heard of these things before until tonight. I have some people to mention this to tomorrow. I'm sorta in the back row of the bus, but outside the jokes this is all interesting. Thanks for posting what ever your views are.

I still love the flavor of a well lit pipe. You guys are pushing my adiction. :)

More info - there are a lot of nicotine juices with lovely tobacco flavors. You can also get tobacco flavored juice with ZERO nicotine. THAT is the goal of many e-cig users. You can have the 'feel', the taste and the hand-to-mouth habit with NO nicotine. Is that not wonderful!?! It's a truly 'easy' way to quit gumming up your lungs.:)

I have not smoked a pipe in many years. I often worry I will get back on one. I probably did not post that right. I would love to smoke a pipe again, but know I would never stop.

I'm confused. It happens all the time. So instead of OJ in the morning I take a dip. Already doing that. I'm confused to repeat. Time for bed here but will pick up the thread in the morning.

high school kids start smoking because they think it make them look cool. this would be a very good substitute for ciggarette if they're only smoking to look kool. so parents, buy these if your teenage starts giving u the cool excuse.

-and teenagers, you tell your parents these doesn't give you cancer if they say smoking is bad. lol

Please continue to take the patch, it supports my mortgage.

However, I do like the ability to look like I am smoking and put the cig out on my arm. Badass!

Oh Yes!! I have a black e-cig with a lighted blue tip. Get a lot of odd looks from people as I 'vape' in my car.....especially after I scratch my forehead with the 'glowing' end!!

BTW - the 'smoke' is vapor. The same or similar vapor used in those fog machines that hollywood loves to use so often. It dissipates very quickly. A few people notice a faint odor of the flavorings if they are strong. Vanilla is very nice, as is strawberry.

Guys I have been smoke-free for almost 37 days now. I used to smoke around 7-8 cigs per day for over 10 years now. Trust me, it takes a lot of will power to go cold turkey. This is not the first time I tried quitting, but this time its different.

The reasons I quit include
1. I used to drag my reluctant non-smoking colleagues out of office for a quick smoke. After sometime I could feel ppl coming up with reasons not to accompany (reasons included you should quit smoking.. its not good for your health).. AND.. I continued to go alone for few months when it dawned on me, that I have become addicted.

2. My kid has a tendency to put on wt, so when she was putting her fav 'junk-food' in mouth, I told her "if you really love me throw it in trash". To my surprise she threw her fav snack and told me "If you really love me stop smoking"

The first and the second reason coupled with similar past experiences I decided to give one more shot at quitting.

This time I really wanted to give my best shot and the following things helped me..
1. Once I am at my seat in office, I dont get up for anything.. generally chit chat with colleagues or going for coffee break.
2. I had a tendency of going for a walk after lunch (it was more of a smoking oppurtunity than real walking). I got my lunch packed from home and avoided going to cafetria.
3. I can never accept the fact that I will NEVER smoke in my life. If I get that in my mind I may go back to smoking.. So I convince myself I will smoke in future.. but NOT TODAY. am living day to day with this promise.

Initially I had these great cravings infact one day I was so scared that if I get out of house, I will go directly to cig shop, I decided to work-from-home that day.

The last week seems to be fine. I am able to getup from my cube and talk to colleagues and even accompany them for a cup of coffee. The last 10 yrs, whenever I drank (am a social drinker) I used to smoke. Its really an achievement that I was able to meetup with my friends .. have some drinks and still not smoke (I was the only one in my group to smoke).

If I can motivate atleast one among you to atleast try quitting, I feel my time in framing this mail was worth it.

3 of the 4 different E Cigs that the smoke shop near me sells are 3 pieces, the cigarette, the atomizer, and the nicotine cartridge. The one I bought, and the one in the amazon listing in the OP, is only 2 pieces, no need for a separate atomizer. That is one of the reasons I chose this one. That and the fact that it felt like it was of a better quality, and would hold up longer. I have had it 6 months and the atomizer is holding up fine, just like the day I bought it.

Exactly. The problem is that using this only reinforces the habit of smoking. The habit is what needs to be broken (in addition to the nicotine addiction). Smoking this doesn't help you quit. It's a lot healthier than real cigarettes but I would not recommend it to anyone trying to quit smoking. Use the patches (and gum or lozenge if needed), or bupropion, or even Chantix but also make sure you break the habits. That's what's most important. This electronic cigarette won't help you break the habit. I know that's not why many people get these but quitting using these won't be very effective or easy (not that it is easy at all).

Just as a note: I've received training in helping people quit smoking. I used to help run a smoking cessation group.

THUMBS DOWN!!!!! NOT A GOOD DEAL.. review http://forums.slickdeals.net/show...st16871123 for good deals...


THIS DOES NOT BELONG IN HOT DEALS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I used Chantix, and that garbage made me feel like crap!!

If you want to make some $$$ look into becoming a distributor of these things, they will be HUGE!!!

Yeah, I've heard lots of people have pretty bad side effects. The only way vets could get it at our VA is if they tried the other methods first and had received okay from a psychologist or psychiatrist. Some people have no side effects at all though. Using the patch and the lozenge is equally effective as Chantix and much safer. All of them just have to be used correctly to be effective.

Ive heard that nicotine is harder to kick then heroin.
Don't know about that But I've tried kicking it in the past and no luck.

You have got to be kidding me.............

Smoked almost 20 years (haven't had one for 1 yr and 6 days now). Chantix worked for me with mild side effects. Wife said I was calm and carefree on Chantix.

If I wanted to quit but wasn't quite sure I guess I might have tried this to get me to the stage of really quitting.

I'm encouraged that so many people actually are thinking about quitting. Good luck to all, no matter what the avenue is.

Why the hell did you flick my hundred dollar cigarette hoe!!! (i bet this has been said)

I quit smoking on will power. It's not that farking hard. If you keeping telling yourself it is you'll never make it. Remember that positive attitude junk you learned in Elementary School?

Anyone remember the Eclipse cigarettes a few years ago? It was a heating element on the tip of a otherwise regular cigarette that heated the tobacco after lit. Thus, no smoke. It was kind of cool, but the flavor was nothing close to the real thing.

I'm the rare occasion smoker... never got addicted to it. Something like this could be fun, if nothing else.

Correction
 

I am thinking about buying on of these. I think the first link you posted is for a different brand. Did you mean this link?

http://www.amazon.com/Electronic-... 62&sr=8-2

You guys should have never started...
Like me =D

I quit 20 years ago and still dream that I'm smoking. Maybe this would be helpful?

Wow, congrats on 20 years!

The link you posted is for a 3 piece cigarette (the atomizer is separate from the e cig and probably needs replacing periodically). It is the brand that I linked to for comparison pricing, but I was sure they were the same thing. Sorry!

The one I posted in the OP is a 2 piece, which I believe are nicer because there is no separate atomizer to hassle with.

The one I have is identical to the link I posted (the box it comes in and everything looks exactly the same) and I can personally attest to it's functionality and quality. I love mine!

It seems the price on the link I posted has gone up, it was $65 when I posted, now it's $69.99 + $4.40 shipping. Still a couple dollars cheaper than the link you posted when you factor in shipping. Especially considering mine is a more advanced version (2 pieces instead of 3). Thanks for that link though, good reviews on the e cig . ;)

I hate to break this to you, and you probably won't see this anyway, but if that tea has caffeine in it, it's VERY bad for you. If coffee or tea were being introduced today, the FDA would ban it (unless they were bribed, which essentially is how most drugs are approved).

oy vey....of course we won't see it because its bullshit!

One of the biggest roadblock to quitting smoking is the whole "it's just one drag" fallacy.

I watched my friends "quit" and then at a party or something they'd be around someone else who was smoking and "just" have "one quick drag" and by the end of the night they were working on a quarter pack.

The other big ass kick is the "reserve" or "emergency" cigarettes a lot of quiters keep around "for that emergency where I just MUST have a smoke." That's the exact reason you SHOULD NOT have an emergency pack around. Have to learn other methods of coping with stress then lighting up.

Personally my biggest gripe with the smokers I deal with is how they treat it like an entitlement or disability that must be "managed". We'll be in the middle of a chaotic day with a full waiting room, edgy docs, multiple procedures, usually running behind and ... where the hell is so'and'so and what's-her-name? Smoke break? WTF!? It's only 11am and they've already taken three priors this morning!

The IV nurse is the biggest pain in the ass, when I told her she can't just up and take off like that on us and that it's unfair to take a half dozen breaks by lunch since the rest of us are lucky to take one break, she responded with "You don't smoke so don't talk to me about what I can and can't do. You don't want to see me if I haven't had a cigarette, I get all bitchy and irritable."

If she doesn't get her hourly cigarette (which always reaks up the office when she comes back in) she does turn into a bitch and justifies it because "she needs a smoke".

Hey, don't shoot me, I'm just the messenger.

I've seen non-smokers be asses to smokers; but I've also been caught jogging through someone's cloud of vapored ass and all you can do is choke on it. Personally I love seeing all the smokers on campus relegated to the far end of the parking lots. They all bitches when the college when smoke-free but for a while there they certainly enjoyed being their own kind of asshole and ignoring anyone who asked them not to smoke in the commons or right in front of the buildings. It was pathetic the number of cigarette burns and butts you'd find on and around the "This is a non-smoking zone" signs.

So can you use this at "smoke free" zone? in class or any building if you want because it isnt really a cig rite?!

Neat reads. It's funny how all these 'vices' would probably be fairly acceptable if they were enjoyed in moderation. Hell, even your party drugs in moderation are no more worse then a couple drinks. It's always the raging drunk, coke whore, and chain smoker who are so wrapped up in their addictions they can't function as normal humans day to day.

Ephedrine did wonders for high-intensity studies by keeping you awake and focused when used in calculated doses; but no, some asshole ran off and dosed it by the handful or turned it into meth and farked it up for everyone. Thank guys.

Guys it might be beneficial to me if you can post what is that one thing you hate the most about smoking or being addicted to smoking....

My list
1. Smoking in freezing temperature outside a non-smoking hotel.
2. turning on close-caption on your TV so that you can go to patio and smoke while watching the TV.
3. On long road trips, force every car in your group to take breaks (when actually what you just want is a smoke).
4. In a party ..miss out on action because u want a smoke..

Depends on how the law is written in your area. The hassle of trying to argue with a pissed off manager or citation is probably not worth the bother. If you seriously need a fix during a smoke free situation, patches or gum is probably more your option.

Nicotine is a poison. I remember back in grade school (when I swore I would never smoke) being told that if you directly injected the amount of nicotine in one regular cig that it would kill you.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nicotine_poisoning

I have been smoking Eclipse for years because of the lower Tar/nicotine. I may have to try this and see if it works for me.

1 advice for quitting smoking. Don't hang out or around other smokers, or it will be near impossible. I quit cold turkey a few months ago. It wasn't easy, but it's doable.

There are a lot of caffeine free tea.

lol, just stay busy and keep to your duties, easiest way to quit smoking. But for one of these, I guess you could say it would keep you inside and not always looking for a place to go to smoke. Other than that, yah I know smoking and taking breaks is real dumb, but when you smoke and you're addicted, what else are you gonna do? Smoke inside your office or wherever you work? There's no way, no one is allowing that. And also for the patch, you should not do any strenuous activities while wearing it. That also means that working while wearing a patch if you do anything strenuous is not such a great idea. Or perhaps, a very bad one at that.

The only way to quit smoking, is to do it cold turkey. Staying busy and always having something to do, and always doing something are the easiest ways to cope with it from my experience. Although I have not been smoking for a long time, I do know that quitting cold turkey is the only thing that you can really do if you ARE trying to quit. But like always, just remember what smoking does to your health, and you should be in the clear.

My Mom quit smoking cold turkey two and a half years ago. She smoked menthols for 46 years @ 2 packs a day. Never even showed any inclination to quit before. Just one day decided she'd had enough. She sucks on menthol flavored Altoids and peppermint Lifesavers now. I guess she favors type-2 diabetes over lung cancer.

if you will find lots of people who have quit smoking cigarettes with the help of a e-cigarette

Thanks. I may have a try.

My friend has these in his shop. If somebody needs, I can get those to you shipped for $50 (i dont know how the logistics can be managed). If somebody wants, pm me.
I think he has flavors also like camel, marlboro.

What brand do you use?

While what you're suggesting isn't allowed to be posted publicly on SD, I'm sure it wouldn't hurt to include your friends info in your reply (name and location of his store). Your friend would most likely appreciate it, too.

guys will power helps you quit. i "tried" quitting 3 times only to get back dragging smoke. but I finally quit after just deciding to quit.

Per that e-cigarette forum, the "DSE-901/DSE-901b/Sedansa Nano I" is by FAR the most often recommended brand/model.

Here are the ebay deals for DSE901.

I'm thinking I'll buy one with just 5 cartridges first. That's posibly only a day's worth of cartridges (some say, realistically, 1 cartridge = 8 - 10 cigarettes) for a smokestack like me, but I'd like to try it out before I buy a ton of cartridges, extra atomizers, batteries, etc.

Congrats to those who have and good luck to those who want to quit!

I have heard that argument before. But does it make sense to take any poison in moderation? A drug, BTW, is any substance that does not contribute to the nutritional needs of your body. Even good food can act as a drug if used immoderately.

thread over IMO :lmao:

I haven't!



































Wait, I never started.

LMAO! This device is in no way intended to help people stop smoking.

If it doesn't help you quit why bother?

I would recomend the Ruyan E-Cigar
 

As a long time smoker and having used e-cigarettes for over a year, I can provide some input. What you want to get for daily use is the Ruyan E-Cigar, I got mine from Heavensgifts on ebay, its a Chinese company but they even honored their warranty when it went out, and it only cost 3$ in shipping to send it to China. Now, I also have the mini model for occasional use, but note that there are about three different models of these arround. The point is, the more it looks like a cigarette, the less amount of time the cartridge and battery will last since they are smaller.

Another advantage of the Ruyan E-Cigar is that it uses standard lithium rechargeable batteries, which can be purchased cheaply on ebay. The downside is the price, but it tastes much better than the ones that look like cigarettes, and it lasts about a day and a half (I used to smoke a pack a day), the minis last about half a day and I personally don't like the taste (they tend to be much sweeter),

Oh and about the health effects, I feel just as good as when I didn't smoke!

I don't think this even allowed on airplanes. !! I could be wrong,
I have a brother , he is a bad ass smoking machine, maybe it would help him, Thanks,

This device is intended to help people stop smoking cigarettes. It's like someone mentioned above...a virgin margarita, where you're still drinking what looks like a drink, with everything but the alcohol.

I used it on a plane, at bars, in class both teaching and as a graduate student, no one said anything, most people don't know what it is! If anything just don't exhale the smoke, I figure why let it go to waste! BTW, it complies with the clean air act since it has no tobacco in it...

yeah but you're still addicted to nicotine...

These are the best ones :)

Almost everyone I know is a smoker (lucky me!), one thing I've noticed is that most smokers hate fat people. Maybe they feel stronger because the smoking helps their own metabolism and helps keep them skinny ('we get picked on enough, why don't they get picked on more?'), guess it's not that easy to just say 'put down the fork' ey?? Don't be a hypocrite and put your money where your mouth is and stop hurting everyone else http://timesofindia.indiatimes.co...921996.cms

FWIW, the one posted in the op (Smoking Everywhere) has gotten very bad reviews on e-cigarette-forum.com
