View Full Version : Electric ciggies?
http://www.elitecigarettes.co.uk/
Anyone who smokes had any experience with these things?
Im planning on attempting to quit again soon, and I thought id give these a try seeing as the most successful ive ever been quitting was with a nicorette inhalator, but they're a horrible shape and the cartridges taste grim.
There is a guy on the VX forum who uses something similar... seems to be working for him, but it does look like a tampon lol

Yeh i used one for a while, ended up smoking as well as it tbh! didnt really do me any good!

So Nicotine patches and gum have 'fake' nicotine? lol
They do seem to be aimed at a 'healthier' smoke, or for people who want to get a fix in a non smoking zone but im pretty sure I could use them to wean myself off proper cigs.
Everyones different when it comes to quitting. I need the feeling of it in the back of my throat, patches and gum do nothing to my cravings, but as i said, the 'tampon' or nicorette inhaler did work for me a little bit, but its vile lol
Feck it, im going to buy some for a giggle

my mate has it, he thought it was good and found it handy, but didnt stop him smoking, non of theese things do really. i was a heavy-ish smoker for a long time and just gave up cold turkey, best way to go. Told my mate he needed to do the same and he went cold turkey and hes doing good. all the advertisment does is blur your vision of it being harder then it actually is, its not hard, you just need to just say up yours ciggerettes and do it.

If I was on my own, i could cold turkey it, but my gf smokes, and my business partner smokes so i cant get away from it. Thats why the inhilator helped me cos i could sup on that whilst whoever I was with was smoking.
you big girl Lee.when did you start smoking again ? Im not happy with you now and youve made Splitty cry.
I thought you were stronger than this mate and i dont intend to loose another mate to smoking. After seeing my best mate of 25 years die from cancer brought on by smoking (he was told) i dont want to go through it all again.
Man up get some balls and knock it on the head.its not big and its not clever to smoke anymore.
Just my view and it makes you smell lol.
Still luv's ya really tho hunny bum x
my mum used them, worked for her... she had used them for about 3 weeks and becuase its only giving you a little bit of nicotine your body dont get use to having so much in the blood stream :) worth a go she used it to quit :)
smokings cool and makes you look hard
They look cool lol, Agreed with the inhalator thingy, totally rank.

lol especially with a pint in hand :thumb:
those silly pens cost more than it does to smoke so why not just give up alltogether and do your rattle

i saw these at truck fest and wasnt sure if its one of these con things like the spark enhancers or something genuine
i realy need to quit but i just dont have the will power to do it as i kinda like doing it in a strange way and as a lorry driver it would kill me sat in a cab on my own all day board stupid for 15 hours with no cigs
I quit at the same time as you did before Lee, fluffed it the first go but then managed it a week later, i smoked about 20 a day since i was eleven :eek:
Its hard and i wont take that away from anyone but imo if need help to wean yourself off it then your heart isnt into it and you dont really want to do it, after everything Jack has just been through mate i think you owe it to your friends as much as yourself to give them up as i dont wanna see you go through what Jack just has!
You cant use Jack as an example, he looks after himself in that respect and still got nailed with it.
And if you think these things are more expensive than smoking, you are on crack. lol

A mate at work tried them,his looked like a real dag and everyone kept tapping him for a fag, they do a black one with a blue tip. It does give you the kick and you can get extra strong inserts or even a bottle to make custom strenght. He was after a joint versionlol
Oh i knows Jack wasnt caused by smoking so that doesnt apply but the fact that smoking can lead to cancer is what im meaning though bud, ive been quit now heading on for two years and im soooo glad i did it, its worth it once you finally do it:thumb:
Every time you light up I will point at my scar. And unzip my trousers and dangle out my one nut :p
Granted mine didn't originate from smoking, but if I had been a smoker it would have complicated (and elongated) my treatment. Trust me, you don't want to spend any more time that you need plugged into a drip lol
