Another Newbie

[paul]

Good evening everyone,

I found this forum whilst dong some research on e-cigs and it looks to be very friendly

A bit of history, I currently smoke 7 - 10 roll ups a day after numerous attempts to cut down and quit. I've been stuck at this level for about a year now, moving up and down, after cutting down from 20 a day. After a bit of research I've decided e-cigs are the way forward, if nothing else for the health benefits.

Anyway, my sister has offered to give me her E-Lite kit after getting severe headaches from them and her Dr telling her to stop using them. I'm hoping I won't have the same problem! The problem is I know these are expensive so I've been looking for something to buy if I find I get on with them and have narrowed it down to either a kit from Jacvapour or V2. Does anyone have any experience with these kits?

I'd rather stick with a cig-a-like to start with as I think it'll be easier and help me get off the rollies.

The only other problem I have is that I won't be seeing my sister for just over a week and I've gotten myself all excited so am considering just buying the kit now and be done with it!

If you made your way through all of that, well done and thank you! I look forward to hopefully getting to know you all

Hi Paul, welcome to the forum, do you want to stick with the elites or look at something else

[paul]

Hi Beautycat, I was looking at something else as the E-lite cartomisers look really expensive. I quite like the look of the kits at Jacvapour, but to be honest I don't really know what I'm looking at! The reviews seem good though. I also looked at V2 but can't really tell the difference between the two

Hi Paul &

I havent tried e-lites, so cant advise on them.

Have you have a look on vape escape's site, if you want something small and kind of cig like, how about this?

Jason's a very good supplier and has an extensive selection of juices, so you dont have to stick to traditional tobacco - which dont really taste like tobacco lol

dont forget to use the code "allabout" if you do order from him

[beautycat]

You get 10% off with that code, he is verygood and will answer any questions, which was lucky as I had many

If you want something that lasts a bit longer this is a good kit www.vapeescape.co.uk/the%2Dve%2Driva%2D1100%2Ddeluxe%2Dkit%7E151

Thanks for the welcomes

I have actually looked at the Riva, but wasn't sure how big it would be. Is it much bigger than a normal cigarette?

I haven't actually tried the E-Lites either yet, Unfortunately I'm not getting them until next Saturday I only intended on having a quick look online until I found out that there was a huge amount of products available. I was also rather pleased to see how many people having given up this way which has gotten me all excited, I've not been excited about smoking for years

Hiya Paul,

Im sure whatever you choose you will be really pleased, I thought I was a cig smoker forever as ive tried umpteen times to stop and never lasted longer than six weeks prior to using my e-cig..............and now ive been off um a few months and am almost sure I will never go back.

Hi and welcome Paul,looks like you got some great advise already,that second kit makes me wince,I got far less for just a bit less money and those 1100 batteries will last you all day,I will be jealous if you buy it

[esmecullen]

Paul the Riva is very good, I started on that and have not touched a nasty since, the 1100 battery can last up to a day and a half, I think based on your usage, that will be the case for you too.

On Jason's site this looks quite good, all you will need is some juice

Hello & welcome Paul

As you have cut down to just 7-10 ciggies a day, You could get away with using a ciggie lookalike e-cig. As you say though, the e-lite cartos (tips) are so expensive So have a look at the various links the lovely folks here have already given you & have a look at these as well -

And if you don't want to bother with refilling (though it is really easy) you can buy pre-filled cartomisers -

Hello & welcome Paul.

Looking forward to hearing how you get on with your ecig.

[paul]

Thank you all for the warm welcome, links and advise! I've been looking through all the links and will continue to do so, all I have to do now is make up my mind!

I do plan on refilling the cartomisers as it'll be cheaper, which is always good, and it will give me more choice.

I'll make sure to let you all know how I get on once I get the E-Lites and what I decide to buy for myself.

Thanks again for all of your kind replies

[Chrissie]

You are so welcome Paul - really looking forward to see how you get on with the e-lite & what you decide to buy
