My e-Cigarette Experiences…

Posts Tagged ‘canada’

It’s arrived!  My package from e-cig.com actually arrived!  Those sleek little black batteries and the several boxes of assorted cartridges are all intact and safe in their cute little case.  So far, and it’s only been an hour or so, I’m excited!  I’m getting good vapor and the included sample cartridges have a nice flavor.  Takes a few puffs to get used to it since I’m accustomed to menthol, but I actually find it slightly reminiscent of my duMaurier days.  So the journey is finally underway – and I will be keeping you all posted as I try and learn and experience the changes between smoking and vaping.  Oh… and if there are any local readers that smoke Number 7 Menthol, I just this morning bought a pack that I don’t think I’ll be needing, and the store won’t take them back (and it was only 1/2 hour!).

So my first thoughts…  I have one beef right away.  The kit comes with a short and long battery, and with the long battery attached the unit won’t fit in the little case they shipped it with.  Minor pain.  And the writing on the cartridge boxes that tells you the flavour is TINY!  So out came the sharpie and I’ve marked them so I know which box is which.

I was able to draw a few puffs right out of the box so far, and I’m actually even more impressed than I thought I might be.  They really do emulate a smoke well.  These are the e-cig.com E8 product, which features the disposable atomizer built right into the cartridge, so each new cartridge and flavour is also a new atomizer.  Nice if you like to switch around from menthol, to plain, to flu cured, to cherry (the mix I have for this order) and even nicer in that you don’t need to worry about having an atomizer fail while you’re waiting for a replacement to arrive in shipping.  I was planning to have 3 on hand just to make sure I didn’t suddenly find myself running to the store for analogs.

It’s way to early yet to say a lot more about these, but I will be tracking the life and use of the E8, as well as my desire for a smoke and will be certain to keep everyone posted.  I’m actually… for the first time in a very LONG time, having a puff while sitting at my computer!  Fun!

Cheers all!

Happy Vaping!

I just checked the status of my shipment from e-cig.com and it shows that my package was released from Customs this afternoon – about 9 hours ago!  There is a SMALL chance that it could make it from Vancouver to me on Vancouver Island by tomorrow’s deliveries, but more likely next week now.  Still…  as long as it gets here, I’m a happy Vaper in just a few more days!  Still crossing everything – but if it DOES happen to show up tomorrow, I’ll be buying lottery tickets next door to my mail drop!
