Hi All,
I own a cigar shop in central Texas and am somewhat (read: a little) familiar with e-cigarettes, although most of my distributors for tobacco products do not carry e-cigarettes (at least, not reputable looking ones). I'm interested in carrying them, but that's another story (maybe you can direct me to someone who might sell to my store for retail purposes...).
My grandmother, who is 77, has smoked cigarettes for over 60 years. She has been trying to quit for years -- and recently felt that she had "run out of options" with the traditional nicotine replacement products not working for her.
As she has pledged to give up cigarette smoking this year, I would like to help her and suggested that she get an e-cigarette.
Well, she's not terribly adept at the internet and whatnot, so I told her I would do the research and purchase her one. Boy, if only I knew what I was getting into!
The myriad of brands and suppliers makes it difficult to understand what is good to purchase. So, I found your site and have glanced through this forum, impressed at what I have found.
I need a recommendation on an e-cig for my grandmother.
1. The e-cigarette needs to be easy to set up and use
2. There needs to be a menthol flavor available (she smokes Salems, if there's anything quite like that out there)
3. It needs to look somewhat like a cigarette (OR at least be the same shape, not like that Janty stick or the box shaped ones)
4. Needs to produce realistic smoke (a decent amount)
5. Needs to be easy to charge, etc.
Additionally, because she smokes about a pack a day, and also because she's not adept at internet ordering, I'm going to need to buy enough cartridges to last for at least 3-6 months on this initial order. Not too too many though, because after all, she may not end up liking this.
Keep the price for the whole thing below $250, please.
Also, let me know if I'm going to need to stock up on a few extra atomizers or anything else that might break.
Thanks a lot!
