So I'm cruising in the Mall doing Christmas shopping, and I see someone smoking at a stall. WTF!? Talk about a rebel. Nope, an E-Smoker! Where have you been all my life! It turns out they where called Smoke Freedom. It was expensive and when I got home their website didn't work. I'm not going to buy from a company who can't afford to keep their website active. Ok so onto the point here, after doing a ton of research and talking to everyone I know about these things, I've come down to 2 choices.

Smoke 51 starter kit

OR

njoy Npro start kit.

Now the Smoke 51 claims their disposable cartridges last the equivalent of 2 packs, I'm sure it's more like one. They cost 15 bucks and come with 5 cartridges. njoy NPRO's cartridges cost 20 bucks and come with 10 cartridges but only equal 1/2 pack. (ouch)

Smoke 51 seems to be a little pricey up front and I hear they have great vapor but bad batteries. Njoy I couldn't find much on, but it looks like the vapor is less.

I would like to order something by tomorrow. Any and all suggestions would be great! I'm look for quality, I also don't want this to cost more than smoking already does.

Smoke51 is just too pricey at this time. nJoy has held up well for Dr. Jim Loi during tests in Malaysia, but its cartridges are ridiculously overpriced. If you listen to forum members here, you'll hear 901 and Kissbox (and for veterans, Trog's Screwdriver). But you don't even know if you'll like e-smoking, so that's exactly where a Janty Mini Fogger comes in. It's like a "starter" device. About $50 for a kit if I remember correctly. If you like it, you can keep using it or move on to a more expensive product. You can check it out at Janty USA

After a ton of research, those are the choices you've come up with? Have you checked out the 801 penstyle or 901 mini from puresmoker.com ? A lot cheaper and they are right in Cali...probably would get it pretty quick.

But if you are set on one of those 2, I can't help much because I've never owned one.

Good luck!

May I suggest, you also look at what we are all pretty much using on this forum.

I would suggest you take a look at the supplier link at the top of this page.
I can say from experience that you will get a better performer and lower price from some of our trusted dealers like Puresmoker, Litecigusa, bestecig, Janty and many others.

Smoke51 just got a decent review, however there are some short comings. NJOY well, the response on this forum speaks for it self, and its not good.

Take some time and read the reviews, check out the video section and read some of the comments here. Some of the best suppliers just are not on search engines and they are really the best ones to start with.

Im a Fanboy of PureSmoker.com - Your #1 Source For ECigs, Parts, & Accessories! LITECIG USA and recently BestEcig-Newest Mini E-cigarette|E-cigarette|wholesale e-liquid
You can not go wrong with them.

Other members here can also give you some feedback on other dealer that I have not yet had the pleasure to buy from yet.

WOW talk about an active forum! Thanks so much. :)

Let me say the reason I came up with those is because I smoke quite a bit at work. I work at a casino that allows smoking in doors, I really don't want to smoke something that looks like a Pen around my co-workers. It's important to me that my e-smoke looks close to a cigarette.

As for puresmoker I just found that website, talk about deals! I see that many of you are against the NRPO. Is the peewee much different? I'm much for likely to order what you suggest rather than what Google does. I just didn't have much to go off until this forum. (Also when I was first researching this website was down for a little while)

Go with the white pocket mini from puresmoker, it will look like a long real cig as apposed to a black pen

Just keep in mind that the smaller the device, the more you have to charge batteries and change cartridges. The pen battery lasts longer than the peewee, and the carts hold more fluid....but true enough, it does not look like a cig. And I can't add much more than that because I don't own one of those either...lol...but I've read a lot about them on here.

Some people use one kind for when they are out, and another when they are home and don't have to worry about appearance.

Thanks again for all your advice it really means a lot. I think given the money I can save using Puresmoker I can just purchase both as you pointed out.

I was really close to buying Smoker 51's product, which would have cost me an easy $150 plus refills. Hell I can buy a whole line of products for that over at Puresmoker. (Becoming a fan boy here) I'm really excited about this. I did get to try vaping in the Mall and it was great. It's definitely not the same as smoking but it's damn close, especially given the fact I can't count how many times I've tried to drop this stupid habit. My wife doesn't smoke and hates that I do, she can't wait for this E Smoke.

I just hope it works :)

I'm also intrigued that your initial research led you to 51 and Njoy. would love to see what steps you took which led you to that conclusion especially as smoke 51 and Njoy both offer affiliate programs. these must be paying off handsomely for them.

nevertheless, I'm sure glad you found this forum and you are taking the advice outlined here. should serve you well.

You know it actually started when I was shopping at the Mall. I tried my first E-Sig and it was called "Smoke Freedom" They lady was selling the starter kit for $150. I didn't mind paying that but I thought I would do some research, after about 10 minutes on google I found their website....down with advertisements. How am I supposed to refill these things of the site is down!

Now at first it took me quite a while to find any info. I didn't know what they where called at first, I tried typing smokeless cig, healthy cig etc. Eventually I came across some videos on Youtube. Quite a few said they liked the Njoy, I also learned about the different kinds how they work, vapor this, atomizer that etc.

Which led me to Njoy which had an appealing website and didn't look like it was created by a 12 year old. Right before I was going to order I found another video about Smoke 51 and even a review by someone who I think posts here quite often. He said it had a ton of vapor/smoke but the only issues was the battery. I thought well heck I want smoke so he seemed to have a few video and knew what he was talking about so I thought I would purchase those. Expensive though... It wasn't until I came to the site (which I found when some Scottish guy, funny guy actually, was talking about getting more vapor from your mini on Youtube) No I'm learning more than ever

so Yup that's it in a nutshell anyway.

I just placed an order with Puresmoker last night. We'll see how long it takes to get here. Seems like a great deal. I just hope the models he has compare with Njoy and other "name brands" if you will. If all goes well I'll be ordering everything from Puresmoker, my wife was happy with the prices which is great, happy wife = happy me!
