    Default Am I right?

    I have decided to try the Electronic cigarette.

    I am a heavy smoker (up to 3 packs a day, average at least 2 packs a day) & from what I have read the pen-style would prob. suit me best, ie: battery last longer, cart holds more b-4 having to re-fill.

    Am I correct in my deduction?

    Thanks

    You should be, yes. It sounds like the penstyle would do the job nicely as the batteries last longer. If you get a USB passthrough for it as well then you don't need to bother with batteries if you're within range of your computer.

    I spend quite alot of time driving down the road & need to spend the least amount of time stopping to change batts, re-fill/change carts, etc....

    So from what I have read this would work best for my situation,

    Correct?

    Ron i haven't used one yet but i do know they make plug in power adaptors for a car cigarette lighter that also has a usb port which could be used with a usb passthrough battery.

    EDIT - looked a little more and there is a lot of these devices available at a wide range of prices. Just search for car usb chargers

    If you get a usb passthrough, you could use one of these or a battery pack....then you wouldn't have to worry about the regular ecig batteries.

    But they have to be 1000mah output so the one in this pic would not work.

    Thanks Lu, i wasn't sure what the mah output needs to be. I've read somewhere that the 901 standard batt is around 200mah so i thought that would work.

    With which-ever kit I purchase, I will get a car charger with it as I can spend upto 11 hours in a stretch driving & want to spend as less time stopping to change batts, etc...

    A car charger is different than a usb passthrough that you can smoke while plugged into a usb port, either at a computer or from a usb car adapter.....or from a rechargeable battery pack.

    There are a lot of models out there to choose from. 5 days ago, I got my 1st ecig (Canadian based). I smoke about the same as you. I'm not happy with my pen style. However, today it seems to be working much, much better.

    I placed a new order (US based) for a DSE901, a cigar, and a pen style from the US company. Now, I read this morning that the pilot model might be the best.

    If you only want to purchase once, I'd suggest dedicating a day to reading as many posts as possible about this and then pm people. So, far all the people that I pm'd have answered me back with really complete informative answers.

    BTW. If you get one you don't like, there's a swap area in the forum.

    Oh, almost forgot, there is a list of suppliers here in the forum. There ar a lot of un-reputable sites out there.
