But I really love those 2 cigs that I have. I specifically enjoy Marlboro No. 27s. I typically have a couple beers a night in order to settle my nerves, have a cig with them, and a cig just before turning in. Thats enough to really settle me down, and get to sleep.

I have recently switched to a sleep medication, but in order to fall asleep, I still need a hit of cigs.

I'm looking for a product that those, like me, who really don't smoke that much, could enjoy in the way that I do.

I would also enjoy something with portability for those times at work when I get stressed out and need to step outside, or when I go to the bar with friends, and want to join them outside.

My smoking habit is hardly anything compared to most. With the way that I smoke, i don't purchase more than a pack a week, if that.

if anyone can make me a simple recommendation, for a website I can click on, and just select it and not too much thought or maintenance, I would really appreciate it.

Basic is as Basic does, only two cigarettes a night, all I want is that feeling of "aaaah, thats the spot" as instantaneously as I get it from a cigarette going to through my blood on a real mild buzz.

Thank you, in advance.

As you hardly smoke at all, and Pvs tend to make you vape more (for a really small time smoker a PV is a bit of two edged sword) you might want to consider a disposable. Its not a huge money sink and should
a. Let you decide if you like it
and
b. Be of limited use but good enough for a small time smoker
510 DISPOSABLE E-CIG KIT with Red LED
Ok I see he's out of stock atm but I belive he's in the process of getting stock back in.
There are other places you can buy disposables as well FYI and some of them last quite a bit of time (not just use, finish and throw away) like a few weeks.

Well....
I was a light smoker of light or ultra light menthols cigs, smoking a bit more when I drink and even more in the summer when it's not so horrible to stand outside for my nic fix.
I'm pleased with the Joye 510 I purchased, am presently using a low (10mg) "mint" flavored liquid from Vermont Vapors, and pretty much use my pv like I did my cigs (morning, lunch time, after work, and then in the evenings when I'm parked in front of the computer or watching tv)

As long as you don't go too crazy with the nicotine level, and find a pv that "works" without too much flakiness or fiddling, it's all up to you how much you want to invest in this.

There's a whole sub forum devoted to different liquid vendors, and yet another devoted to different products. I've seen some good reviews of the "sidesho" ecig sold by Modern Vapor - lots of folks seem to like those as "starter" or light vaper use too.

I've been a light consumer of nicotine for years, and am happy that there's now an option available where I can still enjoy my "fix" (which also calms my nerves and helps me focus) but doesn't leave a yellowy filmy yuck on the inside of my mouth (not to mention, my lungs)

Here and back
Go for something simple, KR808 and pre-filled cart. One cartomizer should last you for days if not the week. You could even forgo the refill process since you smoke so little, they can be a cheap as a dollar a piece (carts).

Good luck to you, I wish I had smoked so little, I would have stayed on analogs.

Capt Jay. That is exactly what I am looking for. One click away, and just a small investment.

10 bux? I don't care if I hate it, at least I'll get a good idea of what it is for very meager initial investment. I don't have a disposable income at all, but I am disposing it with cigarette purchases, and if i can "break even" in anyway, and be healthier to boot? I'll gladly take it in the form of anything online that is simple for me to just click on, and get immediately.

Is there any other website out there that has something similar priced around the same?

Volcano E Cigs has a beginner "sample kit" for $40 dollars that i am very near to getting, but I just would like something a little bit less expensive so that I can try it without that large of an investment.

Patiently waiting, and thanks again!

Here's a great way to 'try it out':

Vapor Kings - DSE801, RN4072, DSE901, RN4075, JOYE 510, and KR808D-1 e-Cigarette batteries, atomizers, cartomizers, e-Liquid, accessories and more!

Others that sell them are out so if interested you might grab one. The parts will work with a regular 510 kit like here:

Joye 510 NO BOX

... so if you go on to buy a full kit you'll get to use the parts with that come with the disposable. The blurb on the disposable package says 'at least 3 charges' but I'm on 26 now and others have 50+ charges on their "disposables".

The "USA mix" in the cartridges is good as well although you'll want to pick up some ejuice as well.

Thanks so much, Kent C. 11.95 investment for 3 cartridges? I don't need all the bells and whistles. That is exactly what I was looking for, and it sounds like I'll get a good immediate opinion of it with that.

I guess tonight's pack of cigarettes I'm purchasing might be the very last pack. I just have to wait for Priority mail shipping to get it to me. (SHoudln't be long in the part of California I live in).

Thanks again, fellows and ladies.

It sounds like a perfect fit for you and you may not even need anything else. I'll warn you that it is an auto battery and that takes a bit more practice than a manual. You won't be able to 'drip' on to the atomizer like you would with a manual - for the auto to work it has to have a path to the battery because it activates on vacuum (or sound) and if you get juice into the battery it will kill it. (ie. short out the switch). So don't overfill and while the three cartridges might last you a night or two, you really should pick up some juice along with the disposable.

For autos take long drags as if you're drinking a thick shake through a straw.

First of all /drool omg i love 27's (MUST RESIST URGE!)

But seriously the way you wrote your post you sound JUST like me. Most people I know hardly noticed i smoked, UNLESS they went drinking with me. I LOVE(ed) a Newport when i drank, But i found that Ecigs made drinking BETTER! Unlike a cigarette which i could only have a mint or tobacco taste i can now chose almost a limitless amount flavors to go with my beer or whiskey. I posted in one post that i LOVE V4Lifes Whiskey cart when i drink Jack Daniels, The sour harsh taste of JD is mellowed by the sweet whiskey flavor of the cart. There are other combinations i can add as well.

Honestly i suggest V4L as a kick back starter, Its moderately cheap, No matter how many you knock back its simple enough to use. And it has a huge variety of flavors. (Im not big into mixing my own flavors or really refilling carts unless im short on funds one week.)

Well thats my 10cents, Happy drinking!

ALRIGHT guys!

Where do I begin.

not 2 business days later, and vapor kings got me this "Q Electronic Cigarette" Delivered to me. With anticipation, Saturday and Sunday, I looked at tracking information, but with it as a weekend, it wasn't until this morning, I looked at delivery info and "Out for Delivery" with location scanned in my city, status updated at 4:40 am. Last night, I smoked cigarettes, thinking to myself, listening to my neighbors cough as they were annoyed with my smoke drifting in to their yards. I was thinking to myself, "this might be the very last time I hear them coughing."

As I got into work, my wife texted me, saying I had a package. "Can I open it? What is it?" "NO! It is mine. It is a smoking cessation device I ordered." "You're going to quit?" "If it works."

I eagerly ripped apart the box, and got through the two layers of sealant, and then got through a layer of cardboard, and dug through packing bubbles, and unwrapped the receipt, looked at the 10% off coupons, and discovered a box of.... cigarettes?

Sure enough, in a cool little cigarette pack sized box, complete with contoured cut design and celophane wrap "ez-open" bar, was my Q Electronic Disposable Cigarette.. Nifty!

I opened it up, read the pretty-decent enclosed "engrish" instructions, and was very impressed by how easy it was to understand.

The forum here definitely had me more prepared than anything. Had I not visited here, who *knows* What I might have thought to do with it.

I really was intending to only vape while drinking, but my curiousity got the better of me, (and it was already charged). So I removed the stock blank cart. opened a cellophane wrapped cart, took off its cartridge case, loaded it up, screwed the battery in to the end of the atomizer, and took a puff.

HOLY COW That's why they call it a "throat hit."

I really thought I was smoking for a minute there. The vapor is thick, it looks like smoke, it sort of tastes like a cigarette, less smokey, but tobacco like. I immediately felt that nicotine kick I get from puffing on a cigarette.

My wife was in the next room, and I thought she might smell it, so I stepped outside and had a couple more puffs.

I was *Really* impressed.

I'm going to have a couple beers tonight to see what it is like to compliment some booze with it.

So far, GREAT!! What a rad product, and I have everyone here in this thread and forum to thank!

CHEERS!
