Need help (again!)

[Arrowmunda]

Hello again!

Straight to the point.... My mother in law has COPD, smokes almost a pack of menthol a day and she cant seem to quit, so i'm trying to convince her to give ecigs a try. I let her try my Vamo (probably not a good idea) it was on the lowest setting, told her to take it easy but she still coughed alot, she sort of liked the taste but feels the vapour would irritate her.

She still would like to give it a go however but i have no idea what kit to order for her? I also don't vape menthol so i have no idea which juice would be similar to what she smokes right now and what strength??  ???

I'm assuming ecigs will be ok for her even though she has COPD?

Cost is a slight concern but ease of use is the main priority, I think tanks like the vivi might be best as she has arthritis? Don't think she would have the patience to fill cartos with a syringe....

Many thanks in advance, i'd be lost without you nice people!

its a tough one i its the maintenance is going to be hard
unless if it was like the ego tanks you can fill them for her say 5 or so and she can fit them her self
carts are out in my opinion maybe a vision clearomizer some thing like that or like i said the eco tank system
can she hold a small e cig type grip it or dose she need a bigger battery like the vamo or maybe a shorter stumpy battery would do

I'm not really a fan of this type of tank, but they are easy to usae and the price is good

www.ecigwizard.com/electronic-cigarette-starter-kits/510-t-tank/510-t-tank-kit-by-innokin.html

also in the 'bargain basement' are these pre filled 510 cartos at only £1.50 for 5 and they are available in 18mg menthol. Can't get any easier to use than pre filled cartos!

code 'ECR69' gives discount

as for the COPD we do have others on the forum who have it and I'm sure they have reported good results from vaping

her grip is OK, it's just the fiddly things, she actually liked the look of the Vamo but i'm not sure she would use the VW mode, however after explaining some batteries don't tell you how much charge is left I don't think she liked that and would prefer a battery with some kind of indication...

I could like you say help her out especially as she lives very close by so I don't mind doing that all... Guess i'll keep looking around, confusing myself even more

This is probably a better starter kit as it has the pcc to get round the batteries being small

www.ecigwizard.com/offers/bargain-basement/510-starter-kit-with-pcc-case.html

or something like this, if she doesn't care about it being ciggie sized

or for a real budget buy

sounds like you already sold your self into a vamo maybe in the 18350 mode with say a vivi nova or 3ml dct tank easy to use you refill it for her get two should last her ages
then you always got a spare if yours breaks lol

[Arrowmunda]

Thanks Karma! Think i'll grab the prefilled cartos! She doesn't own a pc so a usb charger would be no good to her, also I think the batteries might be a little too small? Really appreciate the suggestions though!

LOL punisher I was thinking about just getting her the vamo in the smaller mode, or maybe the riva kit that always seems to be recommended.... I'm a bit indecisive as it's not for me and i really need to get it right as she really needs to get off the cigs ASAP.

i think the prefiled cartos are only for the ecig don't just purchase them (ive not looked yet just thinking out loud)

[Karma]

Most e-cigs come with a usb charger, many of us use this though instead of our computers

it states they are a 510 fitting!  they will fit, their new 'neat cig' cartos will not!  Probably best to look first before thinking out loud!

The Riva kit is a good choice

It would still be worth buying some of those pre-filled cartos for her just for the ease of use as they will fit the Riva or indeed any battery with a 510 fitting

some pretty coloured ones here

[Arrowmunda]

Yup, I've just ordered the kit in purple for her along with some hangsen menthol ( I hope she likes it) and a wall charger.

It's quite a challenge when choosing for someone else, thanks for all the help and the discount codes!
