Ahh, firstly people do get mixed if they read. I don't smoke ciggarettes. :) I buy cigars, cuban ciars to be a bit more pricey but as i live in scotland in a rural area there are no places to buy them where i am so i have to buy online :(
So i presume you're also from scotland?

Can't remember if they sell them, but my favourites are Scheepskistje Olifant. Its a Dutch brand that goes well with a crisp air that we are having here at the moment.

Have some Romeo y Julieta cigars in a humidor, but they only ever really get smoked when i've had a bit too much to drink. Smile

Used to be a heavy smoker 5 years ago, so it's not something i want to get into a routine with. It's so much better to let them be an occasional treat, anyway.

Switched to e-cigs more than a year ago.

Word of caution, stay away from VG liquids no matter how much SOME people praise it, unless you want to go back to regular smoking soon afterwards. VG liquids are just foul. PG variants all the way.

Just mostly various cheroots and cigarillos (i.e. cowboy cigars heh), a few or so a week. Prefer the dark moist types. Good with bourbon and when your holden' aces and eights.

I'm in it for the money

Titan-T user to avoid the cyanide/formaldehyde/tar etc. It's the right choice, but buy a second battery if you take it up.

I bought two eGo-T 1000 mAh USB pass-through accumulators from the very start, even if a single one would have been just fine (you can charge while you use it, no downtime needed).
The paint on the opposite end of the push button got slightly worn off already on both batteries. The visual effect is quite clear, but you can't really feel much of a difference by touch alone, only a very thin slice of the shining coat was rubbed off. I am not bothered by it, personally.

Experimented with plenty of liquid types and vaporizer types, my personal favourite as far as cartrige types go (and the only type I still use, buying in bulk) is the 510 socket Kanger 1.8 ohm cartomizers. You want a longer nozzle though, if you use the tiny built-in cover you might find the vapor too hot, so get at least a short one to allow the vapor to cool down a tiny bit more before reaching your mouth.
One full battery charge with that vaporizer lasts me about 2 days, that's about 3ml of liquid (give or take).

You get about 4 days of perfect vaping on a fresh cartridge with PG liquids, if you're feeling peckish you can switch it out for a new one in day 5, or you might keep it for about 7 days tops, more than that and it's no longer tasty. You can boil them in water for a while to "refresh" them (you can use them again and get a normal taste), but they last a bit less after this "treatment" (about 3 days ok, 5 days max).
If you use VG liquids, you get 2 days of somewhat decent taste at most, VG liquid leaves a pretty nasty residue very fast, and the "burnt" taste is quickly becoming overpowering. And boiling them will do next to nothing, they still taste funky afterwards. Did I mention how much I hate that so many people over here push for VG liquids yet ?

Mine is part of the Totally Wicked brand line, the flavour selection offered great choices but repetition leads to boredom in that respect.

I've been using the full strength vanilla coffee and menthol and was really surprised at how authentic the tobacco flavour was.

That said the Titan-T I'm using doesn't have the button. It's a draw mechanism that powers on the atomizer when air is passing along the battery / through the atomizer.

It came with a really big battery about the same diameter as a cig but 1.5 superking in length. Bought another battery for about £8 and its normal length. It really helps in the UK as the rain doesn't leave you with a broken product.


Only problem I had was the initial effects of the liquid at the back of the tongue. Loving this line of product and it's relatively simple to use the pippette bottles to fill the cartridges.

Was shocked I hadn't seen it before, but made the mistake of taking just one battery and three capped cartridges on a night out; after I drained the battery I ran out and chose to buy a 10 pack, nearly puked from the bitter aftertaste and combination of other chemicals.
