    That big of a difference huh?

    Haven't made the plunge yet. The girl that cuts my hair let me try hers. First hit seemed a little harsh but it smoothed out as I continued. Work charges tobacco users $30/month additional premium for medical insurance. If you don't admit it and get caught, which I would because of required annual physicals, ALL insurance is null n void from what I've heard.

    Wife and I have them, we have the 510's. Nice battery life, and the liquid tips vs. the "cotton" are much smoother, and last waaaaay longer. Great way to quit smoking, after a while, I just stopped. Wife still uses hers, but then again, she's around a 15 and 16 year old more than me...

    I have used them. They are pretty good. The gas station here started selling the disposable ones. After this pack of cigs, I might buy another ecig. I have only tried a barfly disposable one I got online. It had the blue led. lol.

    A guy at work uses them. He gets several diffrent flavors and mixes them. Have never tried them, I only smoke at work and it's the only way I get a brake. If I quit smoking would work 12hours non stop.

    Chantix works amazingly well if you do it correctly. However, you have to want to quit. I used it the first time about three years ago and thought I had won after 30 days. I didn't really want to quit so it didn't stick. I used it the second time a year ago and apparently developed a reaction to it the second time. Depression in a major way began to occur. My wife asked me to stop before something bad happened. My latest round is using snus as an alternative. It seems to be working.

    On topic now, I have a friend using the e-cigs and he swears by them.

    I have done quiet a bit of research on chantix, off their website and others, and talked with people who have used it. Seemed the worst side effects came from drinking while taking it. Also spoke with my wife about the depression and told her she may need to watch me incase I started acting crazy. Sorry for jacking the thread. I may look into the E cigs, starting to hit me more and more that the smokes are taking their toll.

    I recommend you do more research before trying Chantix. It has very bad side effects for some.

    Personally I just switched to a cigar a day, without inhaling. It is the right alternative for me. Your results may vary...

    I bought the NJoy system when they first came out and only really used it when i was somewhere i couldnt smoke. To me it took the craving away for a little while but it just wasnt the same as smoking a cig.

    I just quit cold turkey back in 1984 when I thought I was having a heart attack while splitting
    some logs, couldn't breath very good, broke out in cold sweats,dizzy and said to myself I quit.
    Went threw a lot of gum and toothpicks but I got threw it.
    Then everything smelled better and food tasted better and I gained 30 lbs.LOL

    ive got one of those too.

    cant stand it honestly. i dont know if it is the juice or the automatic battery but i just hate it!

    the 510 mega is super awesome though. super thick clouds of vapor and plenty of nicotine. satisfies my urge to "smoke" i love the physical act of it, and the ritual of taking out my tobacco and papers and rolling one by hand.

    with the joye 510 system, i have replaced my smoking ritual with checking the fluid level topping off if necessary, priming my atomizer if it needs it, putting it together and finally "smoking"...

    works for me so far! plus my wife lets me huff my vapor inside-of-doors

    also there is a very simple modification to do to your fuzz filled cartridges to generate massive vapor puffs.

    anyone interested?

    I quit smoking 105 days ago. Chantix side effects were too severe. I read a book called The Easy Way to Stop Smoking by Allen Carr. There's a free PDF somewhere online, but I bought my copy. Also joined an an online support group provided by LiveStrong Dare to Quit smoking | LIVESTRONG.COM , also available as an iPhone app.

    As long as you're not smoking actual cigs, then I say go for it!

    yeah, i enjoy the cognitive effects of nicotine. the stuff helps me mentally settle down adn focus on a tough problem etc.

    i am surprised i havent wanted a real smoke yet.

    Do the e-cig's have nicotine?





    As the future MD, I'm required to say, "smoking is bad." blah blah blah
