Thinking about purchasing an E Cig, what brand?

[ianm89]

Ok so from what I have read on here, i think my best choice would be to go with the peewee from puresmoker.com.

First off, I smoke marlboro lights, about 1/2 to 3/4 of a pack a day, and the look and feel of my e cig is very important so that it is close to a real cigarette, but without giving up too much vapor quantity or battery life.

Am I making the right decision?

Please Help,

Thanks

Thats what I thought when I bought my 1st one, a dse103 supermini. What a piece of crap.
Then I went to the other end of the cig style spectrum and got a pen style MUCH better IMHO. If you want the cig look and performance then try a 901 mini.

I'd have to agree with Bluewolf. The mini's don't get high recommendations (search for poll disprefrences), and you'll definitely be sacrificing battery life and vapor. If you absolutely MUST have one, I'd recommend getting a 2nd set if you can afford it, either 901 or penstyle.

Personally, I vape a pen, but by better half likes the 901 style primarily because of the mouthpiece and the "cig feel". Any e-cig you get is going to be heavier than a real cig, and will take some adjusting.

Just my .02

The public preference poll shows most prefer the DSE901.
The public DISPREFERENCE poll show every hates the supermini

I don't think you read the polls correctly if you are looking at getting the supermini

If you want a pen, i cant recommend the M201 more. For a mini, an M402 does the trick for me. The DSE103 doesn't even come close! I agree its a piece of cr*p.....

Merry Christmas!

what about intellicig???

i've heard great things

The Evo from intellicig comes across to me as being the same as M401. Others seem to have a different opinion. If you are in the UK, i think you should buy from intellicig because their prices are very affordable. Everyone agrees that the evo/401 is a very good buy..

Electronic Cigarettes, Stop Smoking, Electric Cigarette, E Liquid, Alternative

If you are outside the UK, you can check out:

Their price is good. Direct from manufacturer. Delivery is the same price regardless of order quantity but you must wait for a bit. If you are looking for a supermini, you will like the M402. You can also read my review on the 402 in the review section

I know there is a video review in the video review section. It is a new dealer so we have to wait for more people to get a better idea.

This is the biggest problem with e-cigs. Most people will buy 1 and thats it. They will either recommend or not recommend it and that will be the trend for that model or that dealer.

Often though a bad review does not stop people from buying and a new review comes out that changes peoples minds.

I cant tell you about intellicig since Ive not tried it. It might be great. I can only tell you to watch the reviews and make your own choice.

You want a fanboy like me to recommend one?

Those are the ones I tried

I also tried the screwdriver which is a larger battery version of the DSE901

The Pee-wee isn't all it's cracked up to be.
It looks like a cig but doesn't smoke like one.
I would definately go with the dse901 or the Mini it puts out great vapor and will last a lot longer than the pee-wee. The Pee-wee is more for show and not for vapin, But that's just my opinion.

Good luck and Welcome to the forum!!

Since you were asking about Intellicig, I am not sure if you are in the UK or not. If not, and you are in the USA, you can get a great deal on a starter set at thesmokelessshop.com including the DSE-901b. It does not look like a real cigarette, but it works great. I think most people seem to agree that it is an all-around great beginner ecig. You also get a USB charger, 3 batteries and 2 atomizers with it, so you can either have tons of spare parts, or even assemble a second ecig. I could not find a kit around that had that many spare parts (everyone else gives 2 batteries and 1 atomizer). They have amazingly fast shipping, too. Great people.

If you are in the UK or elsewhere, I am sure some of the other members can direct you the right direction.

as a beginner myself, i would agree with everyone here.there is a large enough learning curve, and may be some frustrations even with the best of the e-cigs, so at least start with a model that is known to work really well for beginners. i would suggest the dse 901 mini from puresmoker.com to start. there is a fairly high defect rate, and steve from puresmoker tests before he ships so you dont get stuck. to avoid confusion the 901 and the mini are the same thing, i think others meant that you shouldnt start with the peewee or supermini. i love my 901 mini so far, only slightly larger than a real cig

ditto. dse901 smokelessshop starter kit. I couldn't be happier.

The review board is worth checking out, particularly these threads -

There are some new products due out soon so it might be worth being patient to see what the reviews say.

As for it looking like a real cig I have to ask why?

My 1st was one of those types and it is the last I use in public.
