I would not use E cigs if you can help it, they are unregulated and not proven safe to use.
You are at the mercy of the manufacturer until they are covered by the FDA/EU safety organisations.

Never smoked, never will, however I am awe of the guy who came up with these things.

My observations so far has been that people aren't kicking the habit really, they are subbing real cigs for these less toxic, electric ones, which is great for their health, but no less addictive. Soooo the guy who invented these has invented a non-deadly way to get people hooked on something which they have to buy repeatedly. Brilliant!

(I say non toxic, we don't know that yet, but I'm sure they aren't as bad as real cancer sticks)

I know people who havnt smoked, but then too up e-cigs because they seem cooler now. So no doubt they are now addicted to them. *facepalm*

Whatever methods you use, e-cigs etc, stick with it.  My partner was diagnosed with tonsil cancer this week, caused by smoking. He packed up over 10 years ago but damage already done  :cry:

Sorry to hear this booth,ive been smoke free since jan ,what made me give up was the discovery of a shadow on one of my lungs shown from a chest xray ,it turned out to be an infection but scared me enough to quit, 20 yrs of smoking has got to have done damage somewhere.

Thanks screech.  Yes it only takes one personal scare to nudge you into action.  His prompt to quit was having a heart attack at a football match, about 13 years ago - no more fags from that moment on.  But the effects are long lasting and he subsequently had another 2 heart attacks, all by the age of 50!  And now the throat cancer.  The prognosis is good though and he's a tenacious bugger lol.
