Well, it’s been over a month. I’ve set a new record for going the course without a whole analog cigarette! I’ve gone weeks in the past, but usually with a few smokes along the way, and by this point I’m back up to several per day with every other attempt to quit in the past. But with e-cigs, yes, I’ve had a few cigarillos (4 in the whole month) but I’m happy to say that I am still not bound to run out and pick up a pack or cigarettes. So they really ARE working! And yes, I will continue to use my e-cigs. Now to the frustration…
I’ve been thinking about changing model of e-cig. I am finding the E8 just a little light in battery life and cartridge life, but I’ve already commented on that. So I had finally settles on a brand to try (epuffer.ca) and was going to take a look at the pricing and product options one more time only to find a note on their site that reads thus:
“Due to recent electronic cigarette nicotine regulation advisory from Health Canada, we will no longer process or ship new orders to Canadian address until market authorization is obtained from Health Canada.”
Damn! So it looks like I’m going to stay with my China connection and continue to order my products direct from there. And… it looks like the E9 will be my next model to try out. I’m hopeful that the E9 will be a little more robust and provide for more enjoyment from a battery, but will most certainly also be ordering extra batteries to make sure that I always have a charged and ready battery on hand and at least a couple of cartridges. I like their product and their shipping is so far reliable and fast, but I was hoping for something at least a little more domestic.
Meanwhile, I see a few more orders have come through on the links and I’m happy to report that I’ve converted a few other people in my area from analogs to e-cigs. I wish every new ‘vaper’ well in their endeavour, and hope that they have the same kind of success I’ve had so far. I know I’m not posting as often as some might like to see, but I really haven’t had a lot to say. Once I order and receive my E9, I’ll have to write some comparative review and of course I’m likely to try a few more flavours just to see what all the fuss is about.
Happy Vaping everyone!
Heading on to Month #2!


E cigarettes definately cause less harm then normal cigarettes do, and they also do not emit any real smoke; which is really cool!
I can’t tell you how much I enjoy my electronic cigarette but I will tell you that I know that they are not advertise as a stop smoking device, it helped me stopped smoking tobacco cigarettes and I even tried to smoke a regular cigarette a while back and I just couldn’t take the taste. I hope these things are here for good!
