Philmatic Posted October 31, 2012 Share Posted October 31, 2012 (edited) Has anyone tried these? They are offering them in Blue Mist, Irish Peach, Pirates Cave, Sex On The Beach, Simply Mint and Simply Tobacco. They are pretty expensive, considering they are disposable and $10.99 for a single or $118.99 for a dozen.

dizzbizz Posted October 31, 2012 Share Posted October 31, 2012 Blue mist is good. I have a friend who is smoking these. He says he likes them. I prefer an actual hookah over some e-cig though. I guess it'd be good when you're out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Venger Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 if they sold it as E-juice I would consider it. I smoke my ego-t all the time. Very "hookah like" with the variable voltage (you can cool the vapor). I smoke (and enjoy) both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rani Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 Actually i could see buying the disposable Starbuzz version to decide if you're willing to invest in a full electronic type of "system". They run over $100 so $11 for a test drive to see if you like the things isn't a bad idea. But I wouldn't buy them over and over. I'd go for Blu or something like it if I decided I liked the electronic thing. 'Rani Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nerdy Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 The "portability" factor is cool. You get to have some sb wherever but when you think about pricing and what not, why not get a Leila portable :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus I love the hubbly bubbly. To me it seems like another way to get ppl to smoke, remember when camel used to advertise their "flavored" cigs to get the young kids to smoke? Strawberry shortcake?? The camel crush?? All geared to gain younger gen of smokers. Granted the ecig is vapor still get the "habit" of smoking a "cig" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm probably going to pick up a kit in the next couple weeks because frankly I could use the pick-me-up from the nicotine during the workday. They seem to have some pretty good flavors and honestly the price on the eLiquid isn't bad. $9 for each that they say lasts about a month.

BarbieDoesHookah Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 I have a couple of them. I use them when my actual e-cig is giving me problems. I like them, but they don't compare to the actual thing. Good for a quick smoke or traveling, though.

[/quote] with the ego-t and the variable voltage battery(twist) you can dial down the voltage and nearly eliminate the throat hit if you want.I love my ego because it looks nothing like a cigarette and because of its size it is very much like smoking from a hookah hose. You don't get the bubbling but the vapor is similar to hookah vapor and ,like I had said in the earlier post, with a lower voltage you can cool the vapor a bit. big flavor,huge vape,and ego-t feels like a smoke hookah hose.one caution though. do not hit it like a hookah with a deep inhale you will choke.draw it into your mouth then inhale.enjoy the flavor and vape on.

[/quote] Yeah, I'm not going to get that into it. I won't invest in a whole system. I just would like to be able to pick up a disposable here and there when the mood strikes me. Vaping isn't something I'm going to do on a consistent basis. I was just hoping SB had dialed back the voltage to make it more like an e-hookah as opposed to an e-cig with SB flavors. I do inhale other disposable e-cigs like hookah though, with out choking (for the most part). So if the "e-hookahs" are slightly toned down from e-cigs, I would at least give them a shot.

Philmatic Posted November 7, 2012 Author Share Posted November 7, 2012 They are in! They come in Cigar like plastic tubes to keep them air tight: [URL=http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/145/photo1jo.jpg/][IMG]http://imageshack.us/a/img145/3605/photo1jo.jpg[/IMG][/URL] After they are opened, they are pretty identical to any e-cig that you may have tried, with the exception of a dedicated air hole that you must uncover by pulling the red tab [URL=http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/547/photo2ph.jpg/][IMG]http://imageshack.us/a/img547/1527/photo2ph.jpg[/IMG][/URL] And a physical button that must be pressed to activate the cartomizer. [URL=http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/801/photo3ut.jpg/][IMG]http://imageshack.us/a/img801/3912/photo3ut.jpg[/IMG][/URL] For anyone who has tried an e-cig and found them to be harsh (Skoozle mentioned the throat-hit, which I am very familiar with), you will be happy to note that I did not find any harshness in these. I get about one third the amount of smoke that I would get from a Blue-Mist infused real hookah, and the taste is a bit more "chemical" in nature (Similar to other e-cigs), but the taste is absolutely fantastic, identical to Blue-Mist.

Stuie Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 I grabbed a blue mist one to try it out. Eh. Guess I am not an eCig type person. I feel like I was cheated. I don't know how people who smoke cigs and try to go to these do it. It's been years since I have had a cig and honestly this just made me want to go get a real pack. Might grab a mint one to maybe give me a menthol kick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
