The cigalikes turned many of my friends off of vaping over the years. It's a pity, because now it makes it harder for me to try and get them to try again with an ego style batt and clearo. Their cigalikes even had ME convinced that vaping would never work for me. It took my grandmother dying of lung cancer that spread to her brain to get me to give the kit my mother bought me a try. Luckily, the home aide that was assisting my mother during my grandmother's final days (she wanted to die at home) was into vaping, and steered my mother right to a nice little ego style kit for me. If it was another cigalike, I may have given it a whirl, but I doubt I'd have quit. Not if the cigalikes today are still anything like my friends that I've tried over the years.
