Even still, it worked for me. i.e., got me immediately off cigs. The biggest problem I have with thinking on it today is that for almost a year I was buying prefilled cartos and that just was about as silly as can be! $$$$$. I eventually went to the Volt, which was cheaper and as, if not more, effective than the SafeCig. From there a few others bigger battery mods and then the ProVari. I tried more after the ProVari but for me, it is best for my needs.
