Hmmm, yes, sounds odd... but those trick cigarrettes really work - anyone tried them? They're like a big plastic fag, you put liquid nicotine and hideous chemical liquid in the little tank, (but better than the 200+ chems in a cig) then when you take a drag it gives you the same throat hit as a fag, and pretend smoke comes out too! (It's the same stuff as they put in asthma inhalers). Been on it for ten days now, no ciggie cravings and I'll be on 0% nicotine liquid in no time!!  |

I think they're different from Terry's, as I remember he had the ones that look like a proper fag. The one I got looks like a cigarette holder and makes me feel like Sherlock Holmes (or Harold Wilson) when I puff on it. You can't smoke them in public buildings as they contain nicotine (and even if you have nicotine free they can't prove it so...) Anyway the link is here - I got the Ego-W. Great service from the company too  v-cig.com/v6.htm |

Best time to have it.
Well, I went to the website. I doubt I'll be able to quit, but the idea of not spreading fag ash all over the place, looking for a bin when out instead of chucking stubs on the floor and the business of cigarette lighter failure or trying to light up during a gail certainly does appeal.
Also the fact that it's electronic and contains an atomiser, whatever that is appeals too, and the box that it comes in, and the dodgy chemicals. I wonder if anyone will sort out a variety of upgrades for them, like Camel flavour, Rothmans, Golden Virginia roll up no filter, essence of deadly nightshade. Smoking could become fashionable once again, then I'd definitely have to give up.

There IS all those flavours, plus a few hundred more!!
Oh the drugs they use are filth, but hey - I can't deny having done half a lifetime of chemical abuse already, and it's still in a good cause!

Well, I'm sitting here smoking one electronic fag called Gamucci, some French brand. It looks like an ordinary king size. The butt has all the chemical in it, the body contains the chargeable battery. You can change the butts for different nicotine strengths. And there's a menthol option.
It is as you describe Shan, tastes just like a real cigarette. Jessuss, I don't know what to make of it.
Roddy, be a good Rock star and join in the fun eh. It won't harm ya to at least try it out. Maybe that's the problem, it won't do you any harm and therefore might tarnish the living on the edge rebel image.
The end lights up fiery orange when you puff on it. You can stick the wrong end of it in your mouth and blow and "smoke" comes out the butt. There are 4 air vents where the butt screws to the main body. I found if I covered them with my fingers it changes the concentration of the nicotine vapour mix. The vapour solution seems to be the same stuff as used in a smoke machine.
The kit came with two rechargeable fag bodies and four butt fills. One butt holds 30-35 fags worth of drag.
Now this is the weird thing. When I'm smoking the electric cig, I desire a roll up. And when I'm smoking a roll up I desire the electric one. The other thing is, there is nothing to stop you puffing away far longer than you would a normal cig because it doesn't burn down. No doubt they'll come out with a cig with lights going down the body etc.
Hey Roddy, great idea for merch. Skabilly electric cigs. It should be possible to get design put on them. Then you'll get more regular custom on your site which in turn will boost ratings, which in turn will ... misspictor help me out here, the customer is slipping me clutches.
