Ex-smokers say e-cigarettes are a healthy way get nicotine fix - WTOL.com - Toledo's News Leader |

This where my Dad lives. I'm going up there next weekend for his birthday. I'll have to pay this place a visit.

Although e-cigarettes are probably harmless and may even provide some health benefits so could be called "healthiER", it is probably going too far to say they are "healthy". Drinking coffee without dumping a bunch of cream or sugar into it is probably a healthier choice, but its a stretch to call it "healthy". Likewise, consuming nicotine without the byproducts of combustion is quite certainly healthier than smoking, but the only truly "healthy alternative to smoking" I can think of is aerobic exercise...vaping is the "addictively fun but drastically safer" alternative to smoking.

Well, I haven't gotten even the hint of a cold since I started vaping... Ya never know!

 

[Pamdane]

Not too far from me. Gonna have to find a reason to go that way soon.

A cartridge is equal to a pack of cigarettes? Unless they are very big cartridges, he should stop saying that.

 

[jazdale]

It would be nice to see brick and mortar stores popping up.
I don't like the anxiety of being on the road and realizing my remaining 4 ml of juice needs to last 2 more days.

 

[rothenbj]

OT, Jaz, what kind of car is that? I thought I've seen most of them but never that one.

 

[Demarko]

I wonder if there's any sort of ecig juice/supply retail locator somewhere.

 

[Vocalek]

Try the big-chain gas stations (truck stop types) and the 7-11s. Many of them are now selling disposables and I have heard that some are selling juice liquid.

Better, Jim?

 

[rothenbj]

Oh so politically incorrect. It's liquid, not juice. Haven't you been in the Health thread lately?

 

[Demarko]

hehe this reminds me of the arguments of why Hydrogen Fuel would never work... There wouldn't be enough places to get it, without planning your trips accordingly.

 

[Dooter]

Hey, that's my hometown too! Yay Toledo!

 

[Vocalek]

Hey, that's my hometown too! Yay Toledo!

"To" is pronounced as in "too"
"Le" is pronounced as in "lee"
"Do" is pronounced as in "due"

Therefore, the name of the town is pronounced Tooley-due.

I don't ever purposely go into the health thread, what's the deal with "juice" versus "liquid"?

 

[malyden]

Because the word juice is something that people especially kids associate with something to drink like apple juice

That's actually a pretty good idea if you have younger children.

 

[Vap0rJay]

Yeah man, 'roids too. Pump some iron after juicein' up...
Prolly not the best reference.

I've only tried SmokeTip cartridges, which claim to be equivilent to 1.25 packs of traditional cigarettes. I guess it could depend on your smoking habits, but realistically a SmokeTip cartridge lasts me the equivilent a pack used to last me. I was a pack/day smoker.

Wish I could say the same. I had two bad sinus infections the first year I started vaping. Curiously, I escaped last winter without anything beyond a couple of annoying sneezing bouts. Nothing that would knock me down though.

Im old school. Juice it is. I have two kids. There is no issue with them getting my juice confused with their apple juice because MY juice is not accessible to them.

And just to put it in perspective, I've been known to say to my kids while driving: "Uh-oh.. the truck is runnin out of juice, better go fill up!".

I dont expect my kids will be raiding the garage to drink gasoline.

That's actually a pretty good idea if you have younger children.

See above.
