Hi All,
Been browsing this thread a few days now and i am getting info overload.
There seems to be some great experiences from people who have got off them.
I am going to give it another try to get off them, the last time i got close i tried Champix and did manage to stay off them for a few days.
I was wondering if anyone had tried the E-Cig along with Champix and what results they found?
I have been smoking for 25 years and really want to give them up (this is the first time i have ever really wanted). I'm on between 20 and 40 a day and maybe a bit more if i was on the beer, there seems to be a lot of different brands maybe some suited to different levels of smoking.
I know personal taste comes into it alot but I would like recomendations on the best set up, I want to give this a good go and don't want to try something that will fail.
Any help will be appreciated and all suggestions taken on board.
Regards
Theblueirish

I can't speak to that one I'm afraid but I would assume that if it's ok to consume nicotine while on Champix then it should be safe. Than again isn't Champix dodgy enough on it's own what with possible depression etc.?

My recommendation would be the same for you irish. Get an Ego/Tornado/Riva with perhaps a 5ml bottle or two of some tobacco flavours (even some menthol maybe). Get them at 18mg (or high) strength for starters. The way to approach it imo is to get a kit, try it and see if you think it has enough promise from your point of view. If it does then you can concentrate on trying some flavours, buying stronger liquid (24mg +) or higher voltage battery setup if the throat hit isn't enough.

Just dive in. 50 quid or so is worth a punt to check it out and see if it might work for you.

Vaping some Ultra High (38mg) OK Smokey liquids (Old Holburn and B&H) at the moment and loving them.

Blimey 38mg. Hope you are lying down when you do that

Normally vape 32mg+ (and chain vape at that) so it's merely pleasant.

I don't know what it is, but I only get a kick off the higher strength liquids.

Like mewso said get an eGo or 510 with two batteries and PCC case. Get some basic flavours for start like Malboro, Camel, Dunhill, Hilton etc. Is really hard to say what flavour will be good for you. I tried over 50 flavours and i like maybe 5-7 of them. You can mix them as well.
Now i'm on 24mg Fluecured Tobacco.
I was smoking 30-50 a day for over 18 years. Only e-cig help me out.

Alright guys,

8 days into my vaping now, haven't touched a cigarette in that time and have had little to no cravings. Its crazy how so few people know about these e-cigs. The community itself is fairly big, but I mean, finding it in the first place is the problem.

EVERYONE needs to know about it. And if Mustard has its on forum on here, we definitely should have one for Vaping.

The Vapour Store lads were very quick with the delivery of my first order, then stocked up on some more menthol a few days later which also arrived the next day. (Menthol for the win Mewso, thanks!)

@theblueirish, just go for it. Its worth taking a chance on the e-cigs for the sake of 50 quid or whatever. You will be pleasantly surprised.

Just got a DSE 901 and some stuff from the vapourstore.ie there last Thursday. Been smoking 20+ a day for a good number of years and am quite impressed so far. Down to about 5 a day already and will probaby be off them totally by the end of the month (please god! ) For anyone who is mulling over geting one Id say go for it, the amount of cigs I havent smoked is already nearly the price of the starter kit. While its not exactly the same as smoking(tastes more like dry ice) the sensation is close enough that you wont want to spark up and havent had any cravings since cutting down!

siobhan.murphy

just checked out the vapour store,this will be my third attempt at quitting,last time I nearly killed myself on champix,they should be banned!
anyway Im an amberleaf smoker and thinking of kicking the smokes to touch,I looked at ordering the starter kit but couldnt see where I choose the flavours or do you have to order these seperately?
thanks:)

Opit

Yes, you have to get some eliquids and empty carts. Starter kits comes with few prefilled carts like Malboro, Tobacco or Menthol.

Look here:

and empty cartridges:

That stuff is crazy, heard more bad than good. Anyways let me know what juce you got and what you think. I got 15ml of Marlbro med' strength, its alright I guess but would like to hear what other people would reccomend for a n00b like me.

Does anyone know any good sites (preferably Irish or English) that sell VG liquids? I was getting VG RY4 from Liberty Flights but they've been out of stock for ages. Also, has the e-smokey treats Irish site closed down?

Decided to start mixing my own stuff. Ordered some 52mg nicotine and VG from Liberty Flights and some flavouring from Cloud 9 Vaping. Who else mixes their own stuff and is it really much cheaper than buying the pre-made stuff?

toniadmas05

Nice to see this stuff and whole info about stop smoking. Thanks for sharing the great post.

I suppose it is cheaper to make it yourself. A liter of PG or VG doesnt really cost much, you can get it pure lab grade many places. The way I see it, I use about half 40ml per month, and its really not worth the trouble for me to go mix myself.

Id rather go to enjuice and select a few flavors per month

I've mixed a bit but less now. I like to have some VG and PG around simply to mix with straight PG or VG liquids because I prefer an 80/20 PG/VG mix in general so I'll often buy a PG liquid I like since PG is the more prevelant and put a little VG in just to gloop it up a bit

I could not have found this thread at a better time! I am seriously on the brink of quitting (again!) but had a really bad experience with it the last time I tried over three years ago.
These e-cigs could be the answer! I was strongly considering hypnosis but think I'll give the e-cigs a go.
Where is the varpourstore located and can you buy over the counter from them?

The vapourstore is online only as far as I know but it's normally next day delivery which is fine.
