Where to Start, What to buy!! How does it work?

[levalencia]

Hello All, I will explain my situation.

I am a smoker, but not more than 2 or 3 a day, I do smoke a lot when I go to parties.
I never smoke because I am anxious, I do not consider my self as an addict to Nicotine, because actually when I smooke in the day its usually after lunch or after dinner.

However my wife, she smokes more than me, maybe 10 or more a day, and when she is anxious, stressed, nervous she smokes a lot more. She is addict to niccotine.

With the high prices of cigarettes in Belgium I want to invest in an electronic cigarette for both of us. We like menthol.
However I have no idea what to buy, how to start, I have seen some websites that they have menthol cartridges, with different percentages of nicotine!, how long last each cartridge??

What cartridge should I buy?, I suppose the one with highest nicotine, and then start to decrease to stop the nicotine addiction?

Thank you so much for your help!!

Many people think they will want to share, but you will soon have to get your own. Your wife is still not a heavy smoker, so you would probably do best with 12 to 18 mg/mL nicotine.

I am not familiar with suppliers in Europe, so I will let someone from your side of the pond help you with the actual purchase.

Welcome to the forums!

thanks, but how long does it last a cartridge? usually?

Depends how much you vape it Some larger ones (that hold 3ml) last all day. Again i am not familiar with whats is available to you so it is hard for me to make an informed suggestion.

You might be one of those rare cases for which a cigarette style model is appropriate. I'd say an 808 model such as a bloog. If you don't think you're addicted to nic I'd say 6mg or maybe even 0mg juice for you. Perhaps 10-12mg for your wife.

I don't reccomend cartriges they don't last too long. I'd go with cartomizers instead. Its cheaper to refill your own but less fuss to buy prefilled. Unfortunately how long a cartridge or cartomizer lasts varies acording to how much you puff on it. If you fill your own it sounds like a 30ml bottle would last your wife a month and you even longer.

I smoked 1 1/2 to 2 packs a day and I go through 30ml of juice every two weeks.

Ok, I didnt know I could refill them, so I buy a cartomizer and then refill it with some kind of liquid with the flavor I like and thats it??

2nd. Its 808 a product model from a specific brand of electronic cigarettes? or whats is it exactly?

3rd. I would like to understand more the concepts of e cigarettes, I have a read a few other posts and people talk about PV, VP, and other abbreviatures that I dont understand.

4th. Any preferrer online shop for europe that you know?

Thank you

Yes you can buy cartomizers and liquid and fill them its a little more fuss but its cheaper.

I believe the full model number is kr808d-1 Bloog is a brand.

PV is another term for e-cig it stands for presonal vaporizer... not sure about vp...could it be VG? VG= Vegetable Glycerine (gives lots of vapor) PG=Propeline Glycol (helps with throat hit (also referred to as TH) the feeling in your throat. There is a sticky in the new members section that covers the most common abreviations. You may find the newbie FAQ helpful also.

As far as European Vendors.... I can't help you too much get your post count up and check the Euro forum... its possible someone may come along after me that can be of moe help in that area.

oh then i guess id go with a bloog. theyre basically very similar from what i hear, and from all the reading ive done, theyre really the best for beginners. dont go with something too cheap, because youll end up just not using it.. thats been my issue with the ones i have - works great until the minute it messes up and i stop at the next gas station i can find.

try doing a search on your computer and see what comes up on e-cigs or have you tried that already maybe even type in the kr808d see what happens
