I bought my first e-cigarette from New Zealand last week and it arrived Friday, I am very impressed and am enjoying smoking them , It is a nicotine free one and I really like the taste , so have ordered some coffee and menthol cartridges to try out. These are brand name Elusion,has any one else tried them .
Hello, I am knew here and this is my first post, am looking forward to chatting with you all.

Welcome ! Nicotine free would make me choke out a bear. Good to hear your able to do it !!
I have not heard of the Elusion. Do you know who makes it? Is it nic free by choice or because it isn't legal in your country to mail over a certain amt? I know there are some vendors on this forum that are in Australia. Is that closer for you?(as far a mailing time, etc.) Tell us a little more about yourself so we could better be able to help or direct you(if needed).

Thanks everyone, I have been puffing on my e-ciggie for 2 days , just love it , I choose a nicotine free one , as want to get off the darned stuff. Am not sure who makes Ilusion ciggis but think they are made in New Zealand , the battery keeps going flat so thats a drama , but have ordered 2 extra batteries, to keep me going all the time.
I want to pesonally recommend to try nicitine e-liquid or a pre-filled nicotine cartridge. It's more like a cigarette since nocitine makes you feel throat hit. And it will make much easier for you to turn cig to e-cig.
Thanks Eunilnam, the Nicotine filled catridges are banned here in Australia , so I guess I just have to try the other flavours and be strong and hope it works. thanks again.
well great job and great attitude so far, Lady. I think based on that alone it sounds to me like you are going to be successful... good for you and welcome to the site! I'm new too, started vaping 3 days ago (well I guess it's like 4 days ago in australia, ha ha) and I do have nic carts and even with them I'm still struggling and FINALLY have started getting used to my ecig but the first day I was not even sure if I did like it - so the fact that you're doing so well right away says a lot!
One other thing you might consider trying if you do decide you want juices with more throat hit, exc... would be to maybe try making your own DIY juices? I'm pretty sure the diy section on the site only recommends that for people who've been vaping awhile and understand it good - but there's lots of e-juice calculators and info out there if you're interested. Might be a good way to experiment with different formulas, can tweak the vg/pg ratios in your juice to increase TH.. and you can even try adding everclear or other alcohols in your mixes which should also give you more TH.
Is all liquid nicotine banned there then? Either way, not sounding like you'll have a problem and as addicting as nicotine is - for me personally i feel like it's the act of smoking, my 'trigger' times, and more psychological stuff that has the strongest pull for me... so keep up the good attitude because you can DEFINITELY do it without nicotine - though it is a drag not to have the option to TRY em... I know theres classifieds on here of people that would probably sell you some nic juice directly and mail it off but I don't know how likely it would be to actually get to you or get stuck in customs or something? But if you decided you were having trouble and really wanted to try the nic that might be an option too.
Best of luck! This place is great for support (or for just obsessively reading about your vaping to try and keep yourself from smoking, which is what I've been doing haha)
