Electronic cigarette?

I just found this today. Pretty amazing!

Has anyone else ever heard of this? I wonder how a regular smoker would enjoy it.

I think it fails on the "look and feel" front… And how do you light it?

When I used to smoke waaaay back when part of the "ritual" was lighting up. The feel of the paper between your fingers… the "squeeziness" of the little poison filled tube.

God, I loved smoking… Glad I gave it up though.
I just don't think there is any substitute for the real thing.

looks cool. It would be neat to see in person.

Cigarette and 3 refills £39
5 pack of refills is £5

Each refill is ~10-20 cigarettes worth of inhales (supposedly).

How much does a typical pack of cigarettes cost these days? if £5 for 50-100 cigarettes is cheaper you'll eventually manage to make up the initial cigarette price.

I have one. The epuffer from Canada.

I was a pretty heavy smoker until six weeks ago when I got it. Besides New Year's Eve, I've had maybe 8 cigs since I got it.


Here in NYC, cigarettes are $10. per pack, so this is much cheaper. It takes me 3 days to get through one cartridge on the e-cigarette. I used to smoke a pack a day.
