So I wouldn't my consider myself a heavy smoker by any means. I can go weeks or even a month or two without having a single one but if i go out to a bar or am just drinking on the weekends, there's a good chance i'll be craving one like crazy and if I do end up buying a pack, it'll most likely be gone before the weekend's over.
While not detrimental, it defintely was having an effect on the hour of cardio kickboxing i do 4-5 days a week and in an effort to try and be more healthy overall, i was at a loss on what to do. For me it's not the nicotine addiction so much as it is the physical act of smoking a cigarette and either just stepping out of the bar for a while or socializing. I've tried gum or even snuse in the past but it never really did it for me. When one of my coworkers picked up an ecigarette kit (albeit this was from the stand at the mall), i immediately became intrigued.
After 2 or 3 nights of reading about them and browsing the forums, i decided on the KR808D-1 for ease of use and relatively good reviews. Found that mist stix seemed to have the best deal at the time with a forum discount and ended up getting the kit plus and additional 5 carts for about 40 shipped. 2 days later it was delivered to my house and just in time for Friday night.
Friday i was out with some friends and Saturday i went to a party. Both nights this thing not only held up like a champ but it left me with no desire to bum a cigarette from anyone else. I'll review the product itself when i'm able to post in other forums but I'm extremely impressed with battery and cart life. The overall e-cig experience for me is turning out to be extremely positive and i feel that as long as I bring one of these things out with me that I'll be able to completely avoid buying packs or bumming off someone else!
