I’ll be going over the different types of e cigarettes that I’ve tried, and giving my reviews. I have created this site because I love e cigs, and have decided to share my experience and different findings with electronic cigarette brands to help you work out which will one could be the best for you.
- E Cig Reviews by Kacey Jones
I’m Kacey(the guy in the picture), and I smoked for many years, then I gave up for 17 years, and about three years started again. Now that sounds nuts right? Well it certainly feels a little crazy.
Anyway, I guess that could be considered nuts but I am very addictive with almost everything I do. And maybe you will be able relate to that.
And as a smoker, I am the kind of person who likes a strong rich cigarette taste, and that’s just the way I like it.
Which brings us to electronic cigarettes…
I found out that a of the few people around me had started using e cigarettes, and enjoyed them. They are cigarettes smokers just like I am, and enjoy it. Most of the people I knew who had used them had turned to using the same e cigs every time, just like with thier cigarette brands, they had tried other brands of e cigs in the past, and had found a brand that they said gave them a good experience.
This was the main thing that stirred my curiosity: that these people I knew. who loved smoking, as I did, really appreciate these e cigs.
What Really Made Me Take The Plunge?
- How much can you save ?
Yes, that’s it, what you see in the picture here..
You see, I realise that everyone has their habits and why judge, and for me one of them was…I’m addicted to my cigarettes, and wasn’t really looking to quit, or reduce or anything, I just enjoyed the smoking habit.
Then someone brought it up to me, when I was going over my budget, and said: ‘hey do you know that these eCigs just cost me cents every day rather than dollars!!.’
So I asked her what she meant, and she said: ‘less than 50 cents, maybe less than 25 cents even’.
Well at that point I realised, whether it is 25 cents a day, or closer to 50 cents per day, here I am paying $16 a day for a pack of my favorite brand of ciggies.
Then I saw that even if I liked them only a little bit compared to cigarettes, then I would be able to reduce the number that I smoked and save some real cash if I enjoyed them enough to get that fix. So I decided to try them out at least. I chose the Green Smoke Tobacco flavour, my mate’s e cig of choice, and the favourite ecig for many smokers and I got the regular tobacco flavor because I didn’t want the dessert flavors, or some of the other flavours you can get, as I liked my rich tobacco flavour hit.
Wow, I liked them, I was amazed. And I immediately cut back on the amount of real cigarettes I was smoking, and I just switched back and forth between the e cigs and my cigarette brand, and she really was right, it was so much cheper, especially when you move on and refill your own with e liquid. (In fact you can refill most brands, so it’s very easy to save money – there is a video on how you can refill them here on the V2 page).
So Is The Cost Of Smoking Your Primary Motivation To Try?
I suggest heading over to http://bullsmoke.com and try the starter kit for only $29.95 (it could cost you over $50 to get an equivalent kit just elsewhere). So why not head over to http://halocigs.com or http://v2cigs.com and try some refill liquid so you can refill your own e cigs. (Watch the video how to refill e cig cartridges here).
It is pretty cheap so you might want to give both a try to see which you like the most, and even try a couple of different tobacco blends (for the tobacco flavours I suggest the Halo Tribeca or V2 Red). Two bottles will cost you less than a carton of normal cigarettes, and so the cost per day is less than $1, maybe quite a bit less depending on how much you vape.
Update for Decemberber 2013: My friend has now been converted to using V2 E Liquid, after buying her own favourite brand for more than a year, she now loves the V2 E Juice.
So, there you go, that’s an intro to e cigarettes. I’ll be discussing more specifics on this site in the future, about brands and more. So I’ll be experimenting with some different brands and coming back with reviews.
Have a look at my reviews of the best electronic cigarette brands here!
I made a page for my V2 Cigs, Green Smoke and South Beach Smoke product reviews, for people who want the best quality (all three of these are basically the top range of electronic cigarettes).
