I know that the quality of e-cigs varies greatly. Anybody have experience with them?

I guess I'd try 3-4 kinds, like with a regular cig and see which I preferred? I think it is probably a combination of price and quality? What do you want to afford, how do you use them, etc.

Ah either you are wealthy or you haven't checked the prices I would spend ~$400 trying different brands

Okay. . .

Best E Cigarette Reviews 2013: Brutal reviews, no hype

I was going to recommend my husband use them but figured he likes cigarettes so he can continue. . .or quit; don't see "quitting" and having it cost you so much.

I use e-ciggs and it cost about as much as buying cartons of ciggarettes in a months time. i love them and would never go back to regular ciggs, there's no ash trays. smell etc.

And no tar and smoke and all that other poison. Hopefully no COPD. My doc told me that even a long time smoker feels significantly better after just one month w/o cigarettes.

..and if e cigs don't work there are plenty of other possibilities. for instance, one man from turkey made an anti-smoking helmet

"Ibrahim Yücel, who is trying to kick a 26-year habit of smoking two packets of cigarettes per day, gives the keys of his head cage to his wife and daughter when he leaves home every day. In this way, he is unable to open the cage to smoke during the day, even if he craves a smoke.

He says he was inspired to create the helmet-like head cage by observing motorcycle helmets, after trying without success to quit smoking several times in the past. " (Neatorama)

anyone have good experience with e-cigs?
Thanks for this!

yes it might be useful in many situations..built-in weapon against attackers, protection from bees, help with kicking the habit of eating/drinking, not having to explain a bad date why you don't want to kiss her/him goodbye ((: not for the claustrophobic ones among us though. mmh wonder if he patented the idea [:

I have been using ones called SkyCig for a month now and haven't gone back. There slightly more on the expensive side, and the battery life is pants but you can get these charge-on-the-go things that work really well and in my opinion the qualitys ace - but there the only ones i've used so can't compare to any others.
