...then start Vaping!



I just bought the Vaporking Manual Starter kit which set me back like $100 bucks. But it's worth it.

I am going to stop smoking newports and switch to this. It's basically healthier for you (Only chemical in it is Nicotine, and the vapor is glycogen or whatever the fuck.

But yeah, I am gonna be vaping soon. And I'll post a review once I get it.

Anybody smoke? I would highly recommend making the switch. It's cheaper than buying a pack a day. And if you don't smoke, stay the fuck away from these things and never start. If you do smoke, this is a god send.

You can smoke these things anywhere.

Interesting. Feeding a nicotine addiction without the nasty stuff Hope it works out, Bitmap.

My mom quit smoking in 1991, and back then she had to do it the hard way of cutting down over time. I don't know if even the gum/patch stuff was around then (I remember commercials for it in the mid-'90s though).

I'm trying to get my friend to quit smoking, but she's got a lot of stress in her life, so I don't think she'll be quitting any time soon. My boss at work supposedly quit smoking due to hypnosis about 18 months ago.

Is the NoSmoke thing one of these? We'd see the commercials and wonder WTF it was that would replace smoking--the way they did the ad, it was like just a stick which made vapor rather than anything from a cigarette, which mystified us. But if it has nicotine in it, it makes sense now.

Not that any of us smoke, though. :p

It's just a vapor. It's not smoking, it's vaping

But yeah these bad boys are very neat. Places where you can not smoke you can. I tried using one of these in places where you can not smoke, and I never got a bat of the eye. Plus it does not have all the nasty fucking chemicals that cause cancer. Which is noice.

Almost everything about this thing is amazing. Compared to $1.8k I spend a year on cigarettes. I only spend about $300 a year. So I will be saving a shit ton of money.

This is exactly why people who smoke piss me off to no end. It's seriously just throwing away money. (My mother, if she smoked, would be blowing $4,642.80 per year. Holy fuck the thought of that literally makes me sick)

Glad to see you've made a step away from smoking, though!

I quit smoking last year for like 5 months. I quit cold turkey.

I broke up with someone and my dumbass self thought smoking was such a great idea.

Didn't solve the problem! And got me into spending 5 dollars a day on smoking again! Ugh.

E- Also, Onyx, these things have four degrees of nicotine. Currently I am going to buy "High", and eventually move my way to "No Nicotine". So if you have someone in your family who smokes. I would highly recommend this product, as it actually helps people quit smoking. Only problem is that it's expensive at first. And you have to replace the parts like once every three months. But it's better to spend $300 a year rather than $2k a year. Huge difference.

They also come in a bunch of cute flavors. Like Red Bull! And it literally tastes like Red Bull!

Man, if I had the money, I would be getting my folks these so fast. Then maybe through the use of that they won't be spending about 5 to 10% of the family income on that shit and actually make the house smell nicer and have my sister be less reluctant to come inside because of her hatred of smoking.

Really.

This is what I bought

The difference between the Automatic and the Manual is self explanatory. Automatic just means that you have to inhale to smoke. But the bad thing about that is it's very sensitive to loud music and windy areas. So I chose the manual to get rid of that. Plus, I get two E-cigs, and an extra battery.

Also, it's recommended to get fluid / Cartomizers on your first purchase. A pack of cartonizers lasts about a month (5 bucks) and a 30ml fluid lasts about three months. Grand total? 3 Pack + Fluid = 20 bucks. For three months of vaping.

My mother's tried a few of these, to varying degrees of success, the main problem being some didn't satisfy due to the air resistance and the rest either broke, were one time use and ran out, or burnt up inside and became useless. Now she's switched real cigs for some sort of medication again, a plastic fake cig to satisfy the urge to hold and use one, and... an addiction to Facebook games. If that ever stops working maybe I could point her in the direction of the brand you use if it's working out well for you.

Question: Do these things give that little biting tingle that you get from cigarettes? If not, I doubt I'll use this to quit anytime soon.
Still, looks trendy. I'll have to think about it.

That is called throat hit. And yes, I would suggest clicking the link I provided on an E-cig price.

@ Someguy, Did she by any chance buy the cheap brand? Look over this thread on a link to where I am buying mine from. Same purchase from my friend's purchase, and it's golden for awhile.

I would suggest doing research before a purchase. Also know you get what you pay for. Cheap brands break easily. The brand I provided you have to buy every week or two. (Cartimizors / fluid which equals about 20 a month)

E- Cartimisors, which is about 5 dollars a 5 pack. (Which lasts you about a month). Cartimisors don't last long. But they offer you to add flavors into it when you get them. And believe me, there are dozens of flavors. (Red Bul, Menthol, Marborol Red, Mint, Tequila, Coffee, etc)

Take it from a pack a day smoker. I would rather smoke off of this rather than a Newport 100. It feels the same, tastes (Provided it's Menthol) the same, and satisfies the same as a regular smoke. It may be expensive at first. But it's worth it in the end.

 The beginning of your post led me to think this was a vaporizer of a different kind.

My grandmother started smoking when she was very young. Several years ago, she tried to stop, but wasn't able to. She still smokes to this day.

My grandma smoked a pack of Pall Malls a day for over 65 years and swore that she would never quit. Then 5 years ago, she quit cold turkey and hasn't touched a cig since. How'd she do it? She made herself fucking pissed off! Cigarettes finally got so expensive, and laws kept getting passed that were so restrictive, that she got pissed enough at the whole thing to quit so they wouldn't get any more of her money. That's the thing about my grandma, she will do ANYTHING if you just make her mad enough.

These are a great thing for people who don't quite have that level of motivation/will power though, which is a tough thing to do. Not everyone can quit cold turkey and expect it to work. Good luck on kicking your addiction Bitmap.

Congrats on finally getting something that's not so bad for your health, togetting something that is still somewhat bad.

No seriously, I'm glad that you finally got one. You can now smoke freely anywhere, anytime, and just piss on people in place's that say "NO SMOKING"

I smoke, albeit somewhat rarely. I have to special order mine from the internet (Djarum Blacks) and probably smoke 5-10 of them a month. I've also never been addicted to nicotine, not to my knowledge.

Glad to see that you've made a nice step forward, Bitmap!

Oh God, Cloves. They were my first cigarette when I first started. One cigarette would last me all day. And yes, they are expensive (10 dollars for a half a pack in a Georgia porno shop.)

I know there is a clove flavor juice somewhere online. So if you buy a pack of cartimizors (or if you have an atomizer + a Cartrage), you can save some killer money off of this.

I should be getting my package sometime Tuesday. Can't wait!
