I would think Cigar smokers would make an easier switch to e-Cigarettes verses Cigarette smokers.

The reason I say this is Cigar smokers don't inhale much and are used to taking slower mouth hits.

BTW - He might like a higher VG level e-Liquid because it will produce more vapor that a high PG level e-Liquid. Cigar smokers are looking for a huge throat hit.

I smoked cigars before I switched. I find the Riva(eGo type mentioned above) is closest to what I wanted. I did not attempt to replicate cigar taste thou, so went a different direction on juices. If hubby WANTS to switch, its easier, e-cigs work best on the cigar smokers draw and exhale.

I haven't had a cigarette since Christmas 2010, but continued to have my three or four good cigars per weekend as I always did. I did inhale the cigar smoke. Well, it's been about a month now since I've burned a stick. I no longer have the desire to have a cigar. OK, maybe a little, but the urge is easily overcome once I start thinking about how bad me, my clothes and surrounding will smell after the stogie. The vaping is enough to hold the cigar demon at bay. Don't really need the cigars anymore.

i've never smoked cigarettes, only cigars and occasional pipes. I started vaping because my wife hated that I smoked cigars. My first ecigs were ecigars. The best one out there is the G120 from greensmoke. however, it's way overpriced and a waste of money. If your husband was a premium cigar smoker (oliva, rocky patel, perdomo, fuente, etc.) then want2vape is the only vendor out there with actual liquids identical to cigars. Blondie is extracted from the Drew Estate Acid Blondie cigar, though he will not like it if he didn't like acid cigars to begin with. Managua is excellent. It is an unflavored maduro cigar. It really is identical to a premium cigar. Do not buy from anywhere else for a cigar liquid! I've wasted way too much money elsewhere.

Here's the awesome thing about the ecig, there's really no smell and no second hand smoke. I can enjoy a flavor identical to a real cigar while sitting next to my wife. I don't smell, I don't have to shower afterwards, and my breath isn't nearly as bad. If he's on the fence, just show him my post. I am a cigar lover, though never addicted, and now love my vaping even more.

    in a cave, eh?
    Don't go with an e-cigar. I believe most of them are disposable. I got a Ruyan e-cigar just for fun and if you accidentally inhale, it's absolutely disgusting.

    Consider going with something like a Riva 510 or even an 18650 E-Power. Both are available at Liberty-Flights.com. He might like a 510 drip tip with his kit.

    As for juice, try a bunch of different flavors and don't be afraid to try non-cigar and non-tobacco flavors. It'll be different than smoking a cigar, but he might like that anyway.

    That's a bit contradictory, more VG = more vapor but lower TH, more PG = more flavor and TH but less vapor.

    cigar folks really like these guys "want2vape" they have very realistic cigar flavors ....the blondie acid cigar is "spot on" says my hubby & friends....

    Good Luck !!!

    I checked out this site but could only find cigar juice. I didn't see any cigars. Can you provide a link to the cigars?

    I loved a cigar here and there (still don't object to them) and found the eGo to be perfect, it's got a thicker body, almost like a cigar.. is held in a very similar fashion because of the button placement and draws very similar to a cigar.

    While cigar smokers I think can make the switch easier because of the similarity in the draw to a cigar it could easily go the other way because they are much more bothered with the flavor of their cigar as opposed to cigarette smokers with their cigarettes.

    Basically what I would suggest is not to spend too much time looking for a cigar looking device but focus more on some quality cigar flavored juice.. and this is the forum to ask for that :)
