Hi all,
I've been watching this forum for a month or so, but haven't been able to find the info I've needed. It's probably just buried somewhere and I'm not searching correctly for it. Sorry about that.
I would appreciate if someone with a little more experience with vaping could help me out.
In October, I purchased some disposable e cigs just for the heck of it. I was surprised to discover that I liked them quite a bit and figured why buy real smokes when these work fine and don't stink up the car, house, etc...
My first purchase was the Gammuchi Continental in mint. Loved that thing. The taste was great, lots of vapor, and the on/ off switch was pretty handy. The package said it would last 300 puffs, and it did. For $10 I was pleased. However, the local tobacco shop quit selling them. Bummer.
I switched to a brand called the Ecigarrette. This one was still a disposable, but you could change out the cartridge. The on/ off switch was harder to work because you had to twist the 'cherry' at the bottom, but it was okay. It came in one flavor, tobacco. I thought it tasted like sugar tea, but whatever. It worked, although it didn't produce as much vapor as the Continental. After those were finished, I thought I should actually pony up and purchase a rechargable.
This is the model I purchased about a month ago.
E Cigarettes, Electronic Cigarettes, Wholesale E Cigs by No.7
I paid $69 for the big starter kit which included 2 batteries, the USB connector, a plug in, 5 flavor cartridges.
I additionally paid $12 a box for flavor cartridges that came in packs of 5.
What I like about the # 7 is the easy plug in (no twisting or silly 'fake' cigarette packs to dink with, you just plug the battery into the USB charger and you're good to go.)
I like the size of the # 7. Fits easily in my hand and in my pocket.
The flavors are okay. I've tried the coffee (the best in my opinion), apple, turkish (sort of reminds me of the smell of Raid Ant Killer) regular, and cherry. On a scale of 1- 10, their flavors rate at about a 3. Again, this is not as huge of a deal as it might seem. After all, I'm not smoking and so the trade off of losing flavor is something I fully expected.
Price is okay. I'm spending about $2 a day less than when I smoked, so that's $60 a month savings.
Oh, and I switched over to the e cigs with no issues or problems.
What's not great about the # 7:
1. It's like trying to suck a golf ball through a straw.
I've owned this for long enough to have developed a system for taking a drag, but still it's a hard pull.
2. Almost no vapor. Strangely, this is more important to me than flavor. I like the vapor sensation. Guess the Continental spoiled me.
What I'm looking for:
A dependable rechargable that I can take anywhere with me that produces a nice stream of vapor. Battery life needs to be decent. Right now I use 1 battery per day. I also would like to avoid the silly fake cig package plug in. Can't say I'm interested in mixing my own flavors or dealing with syringes or any of that stuff. I want to plug a cartridge into the atomizer and get out the door.
I thought about Njoy, but was told today that they will no longer be producing any flavored cartridges other than regular. Blah. That seems a lot of money to pay to have no options.
Anyway, I'd love to hear your suggestions and experiences.
Thanks!
