Helping Granny!

Hi Guys,

I'm back and still going strong with the vaping even though i've had a seriously stressful few days!

Any advice on an e-cig for my granny, she has been smoking Woobine cigs for a looooong time, so much so that hardly anywhere now sells these, she has slowly cut her intake dwn to around only 2 a day but has seen my riva and wants one!

She hates my menthol juice so i need to find a tobacco flavour juice which she will like even though i have never smoked a woodbine! lol ???

I also want something slightly smaller and which comes with a mains charger as she doesn't hav or use a PC to be able to charge it...hoping you lovely people can give me a shove in the right direction

Much appreciated in advance!

It's possible to get mains chargers for a Riva, plus if you get a smaller battery than an 1100, the Riva will be considerably shorter.

Ahhh ok great i wasn't aware of that, thankyou Anne ...i shall go have a gander at what else is out there!

noticed in sainsburys today they have a mains plug to charger with a usb socket so anything usb connection should be ok to connect straight to mains for charging and only £2.99

I bought a sainsbury usb/mains charger, it worked for my e-book but wouldn't work with any of my e-cigs

Thanks guys, soooo helpful as always!! Will check out the links thanks Karma and the adaptor sounds great!

Well done on vaping through your stress and not having a nastie

It's great to hear that your Gran wants to give up her last 2 woodbines and vape instead

[bluebomb24]

Thanks Karma, my stress was hospital related so it came in very handy as i didn't have to duck out and have a fag, i managed to wait a good few hours then grabbed my Riva as i headed out of the main doors, kept thinking cor if i still smoked i would have had the hassle of having to hide in a now non-smoking hospital, lol..instead i waltzed outside not even worrying whether people thought i was smoking or not, if someone had challenged it i would've been "in yer face, it's not a cig!!" Lol!!

Whoops, sorry blue I got the wrong end of the stick there as usual. I thought you meant your Granny wanted a Riva, but smaller!

I know just what you mean, really don't know how I would have coped with my recent stay & many visits to the hospital without my e-cigs - I'd have been crawling up the walls

Hope your visit to the hospital wasn't for anything too serious?

Re your gran, as Anne says, you can get a smaller Riva battery & a wall plug that the USB lead can be fitted into as per Colli's post. Plus there is also that mains USB hub that Karma linked to.

The hospital thing is so ridiculous now, you are not even allowed to smoke in your own car in the car park

[bluebomb24]

It is ridiculous, barely anyone is adherin to it aswell! Tons of smokers outside just ignoring the new policy but who can blame them! I wouldbe the same if i hadn't found this site

I'm thinking maybe one of these for granny:
www.freedomvape.co.uk/shop/article_2002/510-Mini-Tank-Starter-Kit.html?shop_param=cid%3D2%26aid%3D2002%26

Anyone tried one?

Thanks again guys

[Chrissie]

It's crazy isn't it karma - do they not realise the stress it must cause some people ??? They recently implemented a complete ban in the grounds of Derriford hospital Plymouth On the day the ban was implemented, it was reported on the local news that e-cigs where also included in the ban >

It's a 510 thread so most cartomizers, like the pre filled ones I linked to before will work with it!
