My husband and I recently ordered these e-cigs from totallywicked-eliquid.com/products/electronic-cigarette-starter-kits/tecc-510-titan-e-cig-white-product.html
I have nothing to do with that website, I just want everyone to know about it. There are plenty of other sites like it, just google e-cigarettes. The kit's about the price of 15 packs of smokes, and the best thing we ever did. I live in Florida where everybody hates smoking. With the e-cig I can "smoke" anywhere. They are the closest thing you can get to a cigarette. You get a nic fix without producing any smoke. They put off a water vapor to inhale and it gives you the feeling of smoking. Best of all, with no tobacco and no smoke, restaurants and any other place can't tell you no. I haven't had any problem what-so-ever.
I still smoke at home, I own my own house in the country, thank Heaven.
I wonder if the person who has the nasty condo neighbor has thought about reversing that nuisance law on the rotten bitchy neighbor? That law should go both ways, she is a nuisance to her neighbors.
Hopefully they won't outlaw e-cigs.
BTW you can buy the nicotine liquid to refill the "filter" cartridges. We have a good supply so if it's outlawed....... |

| Does it feel the same as a normal cigarette? Does it still make your breath smell too? |

Smoking an eCigarette doesn't feel the same as smoking a regular cigarette, but eCigs don't create any odors on your breath, clothes, etc. That's why they're very useful when driving. You can keep the interior of your car nice because there is no smell, no ashes, etc. The only bad thing about them is you have to keep recharging the batteries and they're not very durable. You pay about $80 or so for the eCigarette so it really hurts when the thing starts to malfunction a few months after buying it. |

I smoke in my vehicles all the time but don't seem to have any problem whatsoever with any objectionable odors. People that ride with me for the first time are somewhat surprised when I light up in the car/truck. "Huh" they say, "Never would have suspected that you smoke in here".
I don't know what the big deal about that is. Of course, I don't have any ashtrays in them (which probably helps with the residual odor) so, if it's dry out, I take a cup of water with me, dip them in there and flip 'em out the window. If there's obviously no fire danger, same thing except no dip in the water.
Even if the vehicles did smell, I usually drive them until the last thing any prospective buyer would worry about is it smelling like tobacco. |

Yes they can tell you NO and they are doing in now all over the country....
The fun thing with e-cigarettes is no one can tell unless they are looking at you...there's no smell and the vapor disappears quickly. Some people blow the vapor into their shirts, check around before using at their office desks, will go off to the bathroom to indulge, etc...It's an apparatus that the 'antis' really hate because it doesn't 'intrude' on their olfactory senses - it's the appearance of smoking that they are banning now with e-cig regulations.
I have 2 e-cigs, use them once in a while and make sure they are charged to go if I'm going to be in an office setting for the day or heading off to the dentist,etc.(I stay away from garlic and onions before the dentist too ) They are black and look like pens.
They are a neat gadget and fit the bill when needed.....Many have quit 'analog' cigs with them.... |

I don't know what the big deal about that is.
Even if they did smell, I usually drive vehicles until the last thing any prospective buyer would worry about is it smelling like tobacco. Well, I am convinced that people practice employment discrimination, so I'm very paranoid about detectable smells. I just feel safer if I take a bath and wash my hair and avoid smoking all day, until I get home where I can relax.
I have a new job and I'd just as soon everyone perceive me as a non-smoker, because otherwise they'll make a lot of unfair assumptions about me. I'm rarely ill and don't file medical claims very often, if ever. I am not unproductive.
No matter how wrong these stereotypes might be, you can't force people not to think that way. They just look at you as a ticking time bomb and a threat to their insurance premiums.
Go ahead and flame me because I know the urge to do so will be irresistable on this one. I'm sure you'll say I'm part of the problem, but jobs are scarce and I just don't trust people in a competitive work environment. |

I have mixed emotions about your whole angle seahag...
Much like Osama bin Laden driving off a cliff in my brand new BMW M3.
In a tough economy for the unwashed masses, I can't blame you for making money to post stuff like this. I wipe my ass with $100 bills (then wash them and re-use them) and I can tell you that electronic cigarettes are great without getting free cheese. There is a law enforced by the FTC mandating that if you peddle products online you have to disclose payment. They'll taze you bro, sis. Don't mess with the feds.
You guys and gals know me.
FWIW, I have completely quit smoking tobacco with personal vaporizers.
Technology has kicked the liberal Statists ass up and down the sidewalk for public amusement. They don't know what to do. Its great. Don't buy it from a troll masquerading as an unbiased poster. Don't buy it from a mall kiosk. Do your research.
I pimp freedom, not a product. |

Perhaps you are part of the problem, but in this day and age I don't think you've got a choice. None of us do. Fighting for smoker's rights is a fantastic idea and all, but sometimes we have to get our priorities straight. If letting everyone know that you're a smoker could potentially cost you your job, then you have a decision to make: What is most important--being able to smoke in public or being able to adequately provide for your family? |

I purchased an e-cig and I love it. It is the one with two pieces instead of three. I have a home charger and a car charger. I use to smoke almost two packs of cigarettes a day. My husband quit smoking but has never said a word to me about my smoking. I travel some and really get tired of having to go outside the airport. These have been wonderful. I smoke menthol so I ordered the menthol. I think they taste a lot like regular cigarettes. I am very satisfied when I smoke them. I am the only person in our circle of friends who smoke. When we go to friends houses they now let me smoke. They were stunned when I first pulled out my e-cig. They still have a hard time when I blow mist out my mouth. But they say I smell better.
This is where I found mine if anyone is interested.

Hey EB! Long time no posty on this site.....
See you over at the political site though thanks for the pings....
I don't think seabooty is from Totally Wicked - aren't they out of the Mid West?
They are a good company anyways and a reputable dealer/poster over at e-cig forum.
I don't think they would pull any shenanigans over here on this site.
Glad you like the e-cigs, I'm still not there with them - a bit harsh - maybe I should VG instead of PG - ah hell, if I ever do decide to go straight electronic they would ruin that and tax the crap out of those too.
Not paying exorbitant taxes - no way - no how... |
