How to choose an e-cigarette

[Silverstein]

This seems like a good first thread.
I quit smoking cigarettes a month ago and was kinda bummed about it because I love to smoke. I had the swine flu then bronchitis so I couldn't smoke for a couple weeks and decided I had a good headstart so I would just go for it.

Anyway, my friend recently showed me his electronic cigarette and here I am. My question is, How do I choose the e-cig that's right for me. Theres a lot of different products out there and I'm just not sure how to pick one. I know I want a black one. I was thinking cartridges cause I dont smoke a whole lot, and it would be easier. Also I would want to use a very low or 0mg nicotine cartridge. Other than that I'm not sure. Well, I guess I would like one that produces a lot of vapor, similar to a cigarette. Ive seen some in videos that seem to produce a lot of vapor while others very little.

Also, my friend gave me a basic rundown of the different parts and stuff but If anyone knows a good FAQ about how it works exactly,how to care for it etc that would be appreciated as well.

I'm pretty excited about getting one, so thanks so much for any help.

First you might want to consider staying 'quit'. That said... if you try ecigs get no nicotine ejuices. You'll find that much of your habit was the visual feedback from the vapor. Sure the nicotine was addictive but if it was just that and only that, then patches, gum and other ploys would be more effective than they are. So don't underestimate the vapor aspect. Strongly suggest that if you try ecigs, stay with 'quit nicotine'.

Lots of reading, but this will answer a lot of your questions:

Mods with longer battery life will give you a more consistent vaping experience and better vapor. The 'mini' and the penstyle will be more like the action and experience of smoking than those that look like a cigarette but for some a supermini (more the size of a cigarette) is all they need. Some need more than that though. You'll get the terminology in the link above.
