Cigar smoker trying ecigs for the first time

[Flobee]

I loved my cigar time-I loved the smell-I loved the taste, but I know its not healthy. On my way home tonight, I bought a hotvapes ce5 from a local smokeshop. I'm going to give this thing a try and hopefully it will replace my cigars.

Not sure what model that is. I loved cigars too. I was comfterable starting with a 1200 may vv battery. Better feel to me for a ex cigar smoker. Now I'm using a vamo with a pro tank.
Good luck an welcome to the site.
I like RY4 and cherry tobacco flavors.

Love me a good cigar as well. Started vaping to stop dipping. Never planned on quitting cigars, but since my nicotine fix is gotten with vaping, haven't craved a cigar. I will smoke a cigar again if the opportunity presents itself (someone offers me one), but I'm not gonna go out and buy them anymore.

@ Flobee:

Since you are new to e-cigs, I thought that I'd let you know that there is a vapor shop near you in Centerville, Ohio. New Retail Store Open! (location & hours)

They have all the e-cig gear you would need, and have a vape lounge where you can sample different flavors for free. Here is the link to the online store: VaporCast Store

I will stop in there tomorrow. Just out of curiosity, does anybody use them like a cigar, or does everybody just inhale?

I found a great rated ecigar. Antonio Villard. They are smooth.

There are plenty of cigar-type flavors that can help complete the experience.

Funny that you should ask. The nicotine in vapor is absorbed differently in the body than nicotine in cigarette smoke. Vaporized nicotine is absorbed mostly in the mouth and nose, not so much in the lungs. The inhale technique for e-cigs is to draw the vapor in as if sucking on a straw in a thick milkshake -- long slow drags of 3 - 6 seconds. Hold in the mouth. Then either inhale into the lungs, OR, exhale through the mouth and nose.

After years of smoking, our taste buds have become damaged. Therefore, until they have had a chance to heal, to get some help from our sense of smell to give our tongue an assist, exhale some vapor through the nose. Some flavors will be most prominent after exhaling through the nose.

Be sure to check out the eGo batteries. They are about the same size and form factor as a cigar.
