Hello, I'm looking for an ecigarette, that tastes and feels the most / has the same vapor amount a normal cigarette has.

And I know, this is probally the worst question over here, / hardest. But can you please try to find the right cigarette? I've looked at the M201, M401, or a K.I.S.S ecig? Know that I'm really new to this, and I look for a cigarette that tastes and feels / like Camel Filter

Besides that, I smoke around 12 - 15 cigarettes a day.

Please help me with this,

I look forward to hear from anyone who smokes / smoked the same cigaretes.

Thank you!

I asked the same question last week, and ended up ordering a Volcano Inferno, on the recommendation of someone on another forum. For me, it was the best decision I've made. Like you, I was smoking about 10-15 a day, and this has proved to be the closest thing for me. I started with a smaller vaporizer and quickly changed my mind about the looks of the thing.

E-cigs will not be like burning tobacco !
You will not have the 4000+ extra chemicals in them that are part of the taste
but they are a good way to continue to get nicotine and flavor
while comtinuing the 'hand to mouth' action we've grown used to
Get a model that has 2 batts so you can charge 1 while vaping
try sampler packs from different vendors
expect your tastes to change
Welcome To ECF, watch MisstressNomads videos in the stickies above for newbies

In my experience, having a ecig that feels like a real cig only adds to the problems. You'll get over the pv(personal vapor) not feeling like a cig pretty quick. Especially when a larger pv gives a great hit that is going to satisfy you. But, I would recommend that you watch the mistress nomad vids for newbies, it helps lots of folks out. And she's cute!

I believe the only way to really get the most out of vaping is to start with a great e-Cig: Joye eGo. I purchased mine at cignot.com. They have outstanding customer service, and they have quick shipping.

I can't technically say anything about the e-cig because I don't have mine yet (Will be receiving in the next few days :). I have however found this one to be the most reliable and effective e-cig based on reviews. I currently own a Red Dragon (E9 model), and I do like that one. I love the cartomizers, but I am finding out that I could use a little more vapor hit. The Red Dragon is a well-built e-cig with a very reliable battery.

However, I am starting to like the looks of using drip tip with an atomizer. I like the fact that you can just drip liquid into the drip tip and vape away!. I found through reviews on this forum that the Joye eGo performs the best when it comes to e-cigs under $100.

Thats my two pennies. Hope you find a good PV :)

Yeah, I second KissMint. I wanted something that looked and felt the most like a normal cigarette and ended up with a Joye 510. It worked, but was very inconsistent about the vapor it produced, and recharging batteries all the time was a pain. I quickly realized that the size/shape, or the taste, was not what mattered most, but rather the "hit" and consistent vapor.
I then ordered a Joye eGo and I am perfectly happy. I sucked on it all day yesterday watching football and didn't have to recharge the battery!

BTW, as a never-indoors smoker, it is SO nice to be able to get my fix and not have to go outside to smoke. Especially when watching football! I have missed so many 1st and 2nd downs coming off commercial breaks because I was still outside smoking a ..... The worst: I missed Janet Jackson's "wardrobe malfunction" because of a stupid cigarette. :grr:

PVs (e-cigs) will never smoke like a regular cigarette because it's not the same thing. You most likely won't find the same tastes you do with cigarettes. You will not find the same sensations you get with cigarettes. Cigarettes burn tobacco and 4000 chemicals whereas vaping is a heated liquid that turns to vapor.

Forget about looking for something that looks and feels just like a real cigarette. When I got my first kit, that's what I looked for and thought I wanted so that's what I ordered. It was a big mistake! What I got was basically a mini. The batteries take about 4 hours to recharge and the amount of vaping time was about 1.5 hours. Believe me, it's very frustrating to have to wait for them to recharge for that long. In order to have the ability to vape when I wanted I needed to keep about 6 batteries and get enough chargers to have at least 3 of them charging at a time. Before I got that far into it, I found this site and I'm so thankful I did!

After doing a lot of reading/researching on the ECF, I decided to try out the eGo. At first I thought I'd be put off by the bigger size but quickly found out it's really not that big of a deal and very easy to get used to. The fact that I can get over 6 hours of actual vape time before needing to be recharged has been a big bonus for me. The other bonus was I got a fast USB charger with my kit and the recharge time only takes about 2 hours. I thought it would be a pain to have to push a button on the manual type but again, I was wrong! It's actually better than the automatic batteries. The automatic batteries have a cut off for how long of a pull/drag you can take. Sometimes I just need a quick draw, other times I want a longer draw and the manual battery allows for that because you're in charge of how long the button is held.

As for the flavor of the liquid, I'm sorry but I really can't comment on that because I'm not a Camel smoker and I'm still looking for what will work for me. I can only place one order a month so my search is limited as of this time.

You may find yourself moving away from pure tobacco flavor after awhile once you realize that flavored juice is nothing like flavored smokes (I absolutely loathe fruit flavored cigars/cigarettes but like many of the sweeter vapes)

as far as models most people say stay away from the super mini's like the blu/volcano mini's/ revolver elites
just due to battery life and less vapor...they do look cool though and some people say they can be modded to work well...meh

I am using a kr808 right now (smoketip brand) it is really great makes a nice warm vapor that I like and just works, unfortunately I have only one battery so I just ordered a volcano inferno (which is identical to the tornado/eGo/Riva) which is a 510 model with a big honking battery...trust me whatever you get make sure you have at least two batteries there is nothing worse than wanting to vape and watching your battery sit on the charger :p

I use to smoke camel lights, my wife smokes camel menthol silver (the new ones with the ball in the filter you crush) I have not found anything that perfectly replicates the burning tobacco flavor...however after a month of vaping I no longer wish to taste that ashy burning tobacco flavor...I picked up one of her menthol silvers and realized I forgot how to smoke, the damn thing went out on me while I was talking..guess I got use to the on demand nature of ecigs...

edit : As far as juice, I have fallen in love with vaperite.com kona coffee flavor...it is not fake tasting or overly sweet it tastes like...a rich good quality coffee...but better :?: sorry not so good and describing the flavor I guess I should just say it is awesome and satisfies what I want in a daily vape
(I also have a lot of minty juice my wife tries that is ok...it is suppose to be menthol but I swear it is more spearmint than menthol)

I would recommend the Riva 510 kit from Liberty Flights. It is larger then a traditional cig but you will get used to that. Most people start with a cig size pv and soon upgrade to a Riva or Ego. I suggest saving the money and just starting with a better device that you would most likely wind up buying down the road.

Having "been there and done that" you just got some excellent advice from gymrat! I bought a KR808 kit, plus an extra long batt and a pass-through which all in all cost more than my Riva kit from LF and I haven't used it in months! Nice to have it as a back up or loan to friends to try though.... :)

I used to smoke camel menthol silvers, and the first PV I got was the Blu starter kit. I liked it because it was the size of a real cigarette, and the handy charging kit, but after a month or so of messing with it (and reading info on this forum) I decided to get the Joye 510. I have had it for 3 days now and can't say enough good things about it!! It has awesome vapor and I really don't have a problem with the battery running like I did with the Blu. I probably smoked 10-15 cigs a day before I switched to a PV. As far as the flavoring...I thought I would love menthol since that is the kind of cigs I smoked for years...but I have fallen in love with several of the tobacco jucies I have tried along with some of the fruity ones.

Most everyone agrees that the EGO/Riva (Riva = knockoff EGO) is the best to start. The only issue why it wouldn't be is if someone INSISTS on something small. I have the KR808 and the 4081 as well. I agree on the Kr808, I don't like it, but there are fans of it.

Expect your taste to change. I was a 1.5 pack a day smoker, so first juices I bought were all tobacco flavor, different kinds. Well wouldn't you know I hated them all. Then I went to unflavored nicotine juices. Wow what a difference (all good). Now 2 months into vaping, I'm turned on by different fruit & candy flavors. Who would have guessed!
What you have to learn is to regulate the amount (mg) of nicotine that will keep you satisfied. You're gonna have to learn to play with that for a while (hi, med, lo). Example: you might use hi mgs. when you wake up and reduce it, during the course of the day or vice versa. That may be tough, but you have to hang in there.
And yes, get the Joye Ego with mega batteries, you won't regret it. I started with a joye 510 because it was closest looking to a cigarette. Although it was an excellent starter, I'm glad I got my Ego. Good Luck, we're here for ya!
