Hello & welcome Kat As Esme says, let us know how many real cigs you usually smoke as that can help us advise you on which e-cig would be best for you Hiya! Usually I would smoke about 15 a day L&B...

Hiya Kat, at 15 a day, you might at a push get away with a ciggie lookalike, but you would do far better with something more cigar sized like the Riva/ego.
BTW, you can refill the e-lite cartomisers with any e-liquid.

Yeah, I've been looking into the riva, definitely thinking about getting one for use around the house - maybe taking a smaller cigarette-like device outside so I don't look strange with a huge looking ecig! Oh that's really good to hear, because the taste is offputting on the e-lites! It's quite a tough drag as well, but i guess that can't be helped!

Try not to knock the cig-a-likes too much, I started on Nicolites and they did enough to at least get me off the smokes and ignite an interest in vaping and they help a lot of people quit smoking even if they don't go on to make a hobby out of vaping, but trust me when you get a decent juice in a decent cartomiser on a decent battery it will blow you away after being on those E-lites

Kat, apart from the battery life with the e-lites, my biggest gripe with them is their claim that each "tip" (cartomiser) is equivalent to 40 cigs. It's so wrong, they are only the equivalent of about 10 cigs. The taste & the tough drag can be helped, you can buy e-liquid in just about every flavour you could imagine (even crab - but don't go there ) Plus with a larger e-cig like the Riva, you can use different cartomisers/clearomisers that will give a different drag/draw.

Hi and welcome, you'll get great advice here. Giving up will be mainly easy. And vaping is great!

Hi and welcome as said get at least a ego of some type or one of the many starter packs and enjoy going all day without having to charge up batteries

I got an SD keyring yesterday. It works well and it's around the size of an AA battery - just a bit wider. Nice and discrete.

Hi Kat and #welcome2# I got my e-cig from JacVapour and am really pleased with it - it's great for out and about - but I must say the RIVA is fantastic for at home. I look forward to getting home to use it Ps. and it is pink

Hi Kat, welcome to the forum.
If you're a bit self conscious about how the thing looks have you thought about a Mini Ego kit? Small enough with a decent few hours battery life and they take the 510 and ego typre stuff on there. Vapeescape does a kit and so does Ecigwizard. Even smaller is, as mentioned, the screwdriver Keyring and that is an Automatic battery so it is easy to use.
