lesley needs help for her hubby (branched thread)

[lesley0109]

Hello all and Happy New Year to you! I need help if there's anyone available to give it My husband has decided that he would like to try e-cigs.......he had a go with his sister's Tornado eGo-C E.Cig with Tobacco Virgin flavoured PG eliquid and thought it quite good and something he could cope with. It seems quite pricey to me and there seem to be other options around which offer better value for money (that kit is £70!) I'm really after advice on other viable options if there are any Many thanks

Might be worth starting a new thread on this question.....

I wouldn't personally go anywhere near a kit at that cost...if it's what I think it is.

Lesley, that is indeed pricey. I'm going to move your post to a separate thread in the New members forum so that more folks will spot you & come along to help. The only problem with branching a post to a new thread is that it will look like I'm the Op of the thread.

Update, I think it's a cartridge e-cig.

even worse news.....

Hi Lesley, have a look at the riva 1100 - I've just bought my second in a week from vapeescape who have 20% off today (sorry don't know how to post links!)

Hi Lesley #welcome2#

A good starting point would be this kit

www.vapeescape.co.uk/the-ve-riva-1100-deluxe-kit~151

the normal discount code is 'allabout' for 10% off, but if you order tonight you can get 20% off with code 'HNY20'

your hubby will need some e-juice too, best to buy some small bottles of different flavours until he finds something he likes!

yes def buy small bottles as I also made that mistake ,
and the-ve-riva-1100-deluxe-kit~151 is a nice kit a freind of mine has it..

Thanks Chrissie......cartridge e-cigs are not good news then? I really haven't a clue but it's the first time in 6 years he's showed any interest so I want to help! He smokes golden virginia and so that taste is the most important bit for him

[lesley0109]

sorry.......as I was deciding what to write you were all posting!

[Chrissie]

Just so relieved I haven't upset or confused you by moving your post Lesley

TW's Tornados are just rebranded egos & the Riva that has been linked to is very similar but a lot cheaper & from a vendor with better customer service.

As for e-liquid flavours, that's the difficult question as it's almost impossible to get an eliquid that tastes the same as a burning cigarette

[lesley0109]

wow thanks for the help so far! would this be a good choice to start on www.vapeescape.co.uk/virginia~53 do you think?

[Chrissie]

That will be a more than OK juice Lesley, but if I was you, I'd go with the following -

This kit (my next door neighbour loves his stainless steel Riva & his OH loves the balck one she uses) -

www.vapeescape.co.uk/the-ve-riva-1100-deluxe-kit~151

And maybe this juice -

www.vapeescape.co.uk/gold-leaf~468

Or a pick & mix.

If buying from vape escape, get your order in quick as their 20% off code HNY20 ends tonight.

Hi Lesley and welcome! I'd stick to buying a few smaller bottles before buying a 30ml Look on the same site (vape escape) at grizwalds pick n mix where you can get a few 5ml taster bottles for him to try.

[lesley0109]

thanks all - i'll order now!

[Gary]

I would second what Pixie Guru has said.

Chrissie like's tobacco flavours, but if you look at the polls not everyone does.

So some pick and mix including some tobacco, menthol and fruit ( and obviously cake / custard / cream yum) may increase the likelihood of staying of the fags.
