Is anyone using green smoke?

Hi MazzR. I've had a quick look at their web site & from what I could see they only do cigalike e-cigs (ones that look very similar to "real" fags, same size shape etc, and use pre-filled cartridges). Some of us here started out with cigalikes, but most have now moved on to a battery & tank type system for a number of reasons - cost, variety of flavours/liquids, & most importantly overall vaping experience.
To be frank their cartridges are also rather expensive compared to most!

Have a read round this forum & have a think about moving to a tank & battery type system, if only for cost savings alone. OK the equipment itself costs a little more to start off with, but on-going costs are about 1/3 to 1/4 compared to using cartridges! And think of all those scrummy flavours (mmm)...

I had a go with vapourlites (another brand of cig-alikes) a long while back but they didn't do it for me. I was only successful once I got a refillable tank and a battery with a decent life.

I see from your comment on another thread that you're just using a nicotine free one for habit so in those circumstances it might be enough. If it's just something to fiddle with it might not matter if it doesn't deliver much or even if the battery is flat.

How are you getting on with it?

Hi thanks for replies. I've had a rethink about using a non nicotine one! It's not going well, in fact I really want to buy cigs now on my way to work.. And start again tomorrow

OK if you end up buying cigs now don't beat yourself up Flowers. How many have you not smoked today that you would normally have smoked? Keep counting those ones.

If you want an emergency thing to tide you over, the high strength Vype are supposed to be not bad (although very expensive) - they may have them in the fag shop.

If you are looking to buy some better kit, I would recommend two of these (get 2 so you have two batteries) or one of these if you can afford a bit more. If you get the second one (evod) you can upgrade in a bit when you feel confident with a NatureVape coil which are, by all accounts, the bollox Grin (I've just got one but haven't used it yet).

For liquid, I get most of mine here it's nothing special (there are all sorts of posh gourmet liquids you can get) but it's consistently good. Strength-wise, most 10-20 a day smokers do ok on 18mg to start with. Don't be scared of getting higher strength if you think you will need it, you can cut down later once you have firmly kicked the smoking.

Do come back with any questions you have, no question is too stupid here Grin

DH has quit smoking using green smoke. He still uses them but is gradually reducing the nicotine
