Hi guys - I'm looking for the Veppo Electronic Cigar from a UK dealer ?

[kc104]

Hi there guys, my name is Nathan and I have been vaping for about a week now. Wanted to try the Veppo Electronic Cigar, but can not find it sold in the UK, anyone know where I can get one from.

I guess I could order from the USA. Just thought there might be issues with customs, it being liquid

I've never heard of it being sold in the UK...

You won't get an issue with customs as e-cigs & liquid are legal in the UK; unless you order a fair quantity and you could incur a customs charge (ask them to mark the value as $30 or less, as that is the limit before you could could incur charges).

Is it any good?
Are the cartridges refillable? Atomiser replaceable? Battery rechargeable?

I think Veppo is a branding by one specific company in the US. Knowing nothing about electronic cigars, I have not tried any, but I am sure there must be a brand probably made in the same factory in the UK somewhere.

Check out the UK distributors, and see which ones sell e-cigars, and tell them what you are looking for, they may be the best people to help you with this question.

I doubt there would issues with importing from US, although there can be a tax in the UK, if the package has been insured for transit in the US.

Most folk use ecigs rather than the cigars, which have not really kept up with atomiser and battery improvements. Cigar flavoured juice is available from most UK dealerships.

Good Luck

hmm, the reason I was interested in this one was becasue they say you can get around 1700 puff from it (without doing anything) and for 30 dollars / 20 pounds, I thought, not bad VFM and easy to use.

 

[CatVTTV]

hmmm, that may be the case, but we hear claims all the time, such as an ecig cart will last as long as 20 cigarettes... and that is most certainly not true.
If you know someone who has bought one, ask them how long it lasted.
If something sounds to good to be true, it usually is.....

I just wanted to add that the Veppo is disposable, and as such that is a bit pricey.. remember, it will only last as long as the battery does, you cannot recharge it.

vaping, is a fuss at first, but you soon get used to it. An ecig like the Ego/Tornado/Riva will give you hours and hours of vaping off one charge, and you can get mega sized carts and cartomizers for them holding up to 2.5ml of juice. A starter kit will cost you around the same as the Veppo, but at least you will still have a battery that will last you 6 months or so, and if you choose the USB type, can be charged and vaped at the same time when on your PC.

The choice of course is yours, and I do realise we all have do our own thing, and make our own mistakes, mind you... you could prove me wrong, and it may be wonderful.

I take long drags from my ecig, so my idea of 1700 puffs may not be the same as theirs.

Nathan, out of interest, what is it about this-cigar that's made you want to try it?

 

[kc104]

hey there guys. Well I have always been into cigars, but the main thing for me was a 'buy and forget' style of thinking. I am new to e-cigs and getting used to all the things you have to do with them, just to have a smoke. Just thought I would try something that could go all the time for at least 2 weeks. Sure I also don't know about 1800 puffs - that info is from a youtube review - of someone I don't know if they were affiliated to the product or not.

Why, I wonder is it not sold in the UK.

I am not sure about this one. 30 dollars, but then I have yet to find a USA company that will send to the UK - that sells that product.

And if they do indeed last for 1800 puffs, would that really last 2 weeks? (128 puffs a day?)

Why, I wonder is it not sold in the UK.

Well I haven't ever sold e-cigars because I don't want to sell disposable products particularly, and e-cigars have never been that popular, and some are just not very good TBH.

But I wonder if that Veppo cigar is the same as -
Janty TAWC
or from Smokejuice in UK -
Janty disposable Cigar

(both out of stock btw)

 

[Chrissie]

Nathan, Toby is right, disposables really aren't the best way forward hence why so few UK vendors sell them. Don't get me wrong, they are OK for someone just starting out but a good rechargeable e-cig ends up being far more economical.

Whichever e-cig you go for, you can buy cigar flavoured juice to refill it with if it's the taste you are looking for. If it's more to do with the size then you are laughing as the the larger the e-cig (in general) the longer the battery lasts between charges. So maybe an eGo/Riva would suit you really well

 

[kc104]

Thanks for that chrissie. Yeah I have 2 riva 510's. They are very good.

 

[CatVTTV]

kc, if you check out the Ego and its Mega XL carts, and Im only saying Ego because thats what I own, and I know nothing of the Riva and what components are available for it, its very similar to a Cigar. The cart can hold up to 2.5ml liquid, which is a lot, but better still, you can buy Mega cartomisers, which can be refilled a fair few times.

So, in all but colour, that would resemble your cigar, and you could fill up with cigar juice...

No doubt they are available for the Riva too..so hopefully that will solve the problem.

I've often considered buying an e-cigar but the fact that the atty constitutes the entire cigar unit made it look like an expensive habit. No way would I ever pay 12.99 for an atty with a 14 - 60 day life expectation, then another 1.99 per cart. If someone came up with an atty that was a cheaper and separate screw on addition to the battery unit I might re-consider it.
