An Odd Connection

[EvansLight]

Hello everyone, once again i am blowing through. This time with an odd connection.

For about a year now I've been about 1 1/2 pack a week smoker. I am getting tired of the smell, the taste, and the cost. So i decided to make a switch to e-cigs. I've seen em before, and even seen members here post and talk about them. So just like when i got my first hookah, i looked for a forum full of people smarter then me before i plopped down my hard earned cash on something. And in joining a nice little e-cig forum, i find quite a few similarities between the two communities, and even activities.

For starters, the main production of smoke in both items is the same (Glycerin; granted Propylene Glycol is an alternate substance in e-cigs). Both are attacked by big tobacco and so called research calling out both as just as bad if not worse. Big tobacco would love new laws to ban the sale, use, or even mention of either one. And both have great communities behind them.

Its a curious observation, and an odd one to make. But thats what i do.

So then to ask a question, as you can guess i am about to get my first e-cig kit; anyone else here smoking electronically?

Yes, A few weeks ago I did the exact same thing you did. Found a forum.
I wasn't a big smoker at all. maybe a pack would last me a week. But me being me, I was interested in getting an e cig, just because I thought it was neat.
I'm not gonna post the links, but I'd go with a Revolver E-Cig. After the research I did, It was the one that I went with. Smokes great, easy to refill, and actually pretty cheap.
From what I've read theres tons of good e-cigs out there, and tons of shit ones too.
Congratulations of doing something about that nasty habit.

i bought the blu e-cig probably around a year and a half of two ago. i chose that one just because it seemed to be from the most professional looking company, and the most user friendly device (no having to deal with the liquid refills) and the charger pack was nice

but, the reason i smoke is because it kinda relaxes and centers me, the electronic cigarette didn't do that. it almost seemed like a novelty to me. if i wanted to quit smoking, i would put this back in my arsenal, but i'm not looking to do such things at the moment.

by the way, i smoke around a pack a day. so this could defiantly be different for someone who smokes less.
