Electronic Cigarette Review – Things to Consider
Deciding to give up smoking must be one of the most important health related decision that a person can ever make. Sadly, it is easier said than done. When you go online, there are countless of web pages that claim that their way of quitting smoking is the way. Some give “10 tips on how to quit smoking” advice. But really, how well do those things work? They are great in theory but for a smoker who has been puffing for years, the craving for nicotine is just too strong – too strong in fact to the point that those “how to’s” just don’t work as well as they are expected to. Gladly, electronic cigarettes were invented and as of today, it is the best alternative to actually smoking.
To set things straight, electronic cigarettes are not really cigarettes – but they sure look and feel a whole lot like it. The point of an electronic cigarette is to let the user smoke without actually smoking. Okay, that sounded a bit ironic but in a nutshell, it allows a smoker to “smoke” without the harmful effects of tobacco smoking. To begin with, ecigs do not really produce smoke, which is great for your lungs after all the years of inhaling all those toxins. It has no tar and other chemicals that may cause cancer that is present in tobacco smoking. It is even good for your teeth because it won’t stain your enamel, making your teeth look yellow.
So you are thinking, how is an electronic cigarette anything like the real deal if it produces no smoke and it does not have any of the bad stuff of a real cigarette? To begin with, it still has nicotine and the truth behind smoking is you are after the nicotine content in the cigarette and not the cigarette itself. Electronic cigarettes have that which will surely satisfy your craving for it. Secondly, people who have been smoking for years tend to get so used to putting something in their mouth since it has become a habit. Can you think of how many people who are trying to quit smoking end up substituting lollipops for it? Electronic cigarettes work with the same principle. Smokers who use electronic cigarettes have something between their fingers, which they put in their mouth, giving them the same satisfying sensation minus the bad breath.
Third, a lot of people have second thoughts about quitting smoking due to the social pressure involved. For some reason, there are people who think that smokers have “cliques” and you have to smoke too in order to be a part of this group. With an electronic cigarette, you can join these groups because you are still “smoking” in a way, only you are using the healthier and better option.
If you find that kicking the habit of smoking is just too hard for you, then choose the better alternative – smoke electronic cigarettes instead. They will give you the same satisfaction minus all the health risks of tobacco smoking.

WhiteCloudCig Review
I looked around for electronic cigs and found White Cloud Cigs to be the most expensive and might I say luxury e-cigs out there. I thought t was way overpriced or something because no way a starter kit should cost over $200. So out of curiosity I checked out their site and wondered what was so special about them that the vendor’s so confident about the price. It’s pretty steep and I won’t be surprised to hear other people say it won’t be their first choice when they’re giving e-cigs a try.
White Cloud Cigs give me the impression that they’re the Mac of electronic cigarettes. What makes them different from all of the e-cigs I found so far is that they appear to be more advanced in technology and design. They have the most compact e-cigs so far with batteries that can match or even outlast the big ones for e-cigs. So I was really impressed with how they really care about quality and their customers because they sure appear that way. Their customer service contact person is Patti and it’s these attention they have for their clients that convinced me to try their products.
I ordered a starter kit and it arrived pretty fast. Fortunately I never found anything wrong with it so I haven’t talked to Patti, their customer service person although I’ve been reading a lot of good reviews about her performance. Not a lot of companies take care of their customers like the way they say she does anymore. This is why there’s a premium on White Cloud products. If only there were a tip jar online I bet Patti’s would be brimming. Anyway, the package is really neat. It’s more compact and lighter than I thought it would be. Compared to my other e-cigs, it’s a real pound for pound e-cig, a habanero among all chilis and definitely was worth the premium.
I’m still using my White Cloud Cigs and among my e-cig using friends, it’s earned the reputation of being a Rolls Royce of electronic cigarettes. I’m thinking of retiring the C2 model and get their new one. My friends are already asking if they can have it. It’s that good. I never hesitated to recommend this brand to my friends after they saw the product and because I think White Cloud Cigs really do take care of their customers well. That for me is a good indication that they’ll be around for a long time because they know the value of repeat customers.
I do hope they stick around for a long time and continue to bring the best e-cigs to the market.

TheSafeCig Review
The first electronic cigarettes I got were from SafeCig. It took me a lot of convincing to try ecigarettes. At first I was very hesitant and doubtful because I wonder why it wasn’t really widely advertised as truly safe. I read up on a lot of articles about it online, where e-cigs are mostly talked about. I didn’t know anyone who’s tried it. Despite the information I got online, what made me decide to try it finally were some celebrity endorsements from Kath Heigl on the Letterman show and Johnny Depp in the movie The Tourist. I was still a skeptic about how e-cigs can be good enough to replace tobacco cigarettes as I assumed the two wouldn’t feel the same at all much like the real thing and a simulator.
So I bought a starter kit from the Safe Cig. It’s very reassuring to know that they have no tar and carbon monoxide. I’ve been smoking for over ten years and it’s starting to take its toll on my health. I thought switching to e-cigs would help me quit the habit. So I put the starter kit together. It was as easy as using a new cell phone. I took a long slow drag for about 5 to 6 seconds and I was gladly surprised to get a lot of vapor from it. It wasn’t hot like I thought it would be since it did look like steam from the videos I’ve seen prior. It tasted a bit different from tobacco cigarettes. I suppose that’s from the lack of tar. It tasted clean. There wasn’t that dirty aftertaste. There wasn’t any smell either from the vapor. It’s really is just water.
The Safe Cig did live up to its name. I puffed a lot of it on the first day mostly out of excitement because there’s no smell at all. It took me a while to forget about using the ash tray. Now I just set it down on the desk. It’s become a new habit that I’m reluctant to smoke any tobacco cigarettes now. I wouldn’t want to set those down on the desk by mistake. E-cigs are non flammable and I’m used to how safe they are that I can’t go back to tobacco cigarettes and endanger myself, the carpet and the furniture around me.
I smoked or vaped it in a club. Everyone else was smoking tobacco cigarettes at that time. It’s really convenient to not need an ash tray. I was going around with e-cig in hand. I couldn’t do that with tobacco cigarettes without risking accidentally burning someone else. I used it in the non-smoking sections in the café, too. It did surprise a few people but we were still breathing clean air despite my vaping. I’m very happy to make this change. It’s very liberating.

Frii Electronic Cigarette Review
Finally something that I purchased in the past few weeks that I am very happy with is the Smoke Free electronic cigarette. It’s more expensive than other electronic cigarettes I found but by now I have realized that the price tag does not really mean anything and does not even guarantee satisfaction. The starter kit I got only had one battery and five cartridges. I wasn’t willing to spend for more than just this basic starter kit because I wanted to give this brand just a try. Had I known that I’d be very happy with it, I would have gotten a better deal.
Anyway, Smoke Frii’s e-cig pretty much looks like any other e-cig out there but what it lacks in stylish looks, it makes up for a lot with the vapor quality and its superior cartridge. So far its cartridges outlast any other ones out there and are about the equivalent of one and a half pack of cigarettes. This product is misleadingly expensive at first but in the long run, saved me a lot more money than any other that I’ve tried.
The quality’s good. It’s not messy or hard to manage. The battery life is also decent so even if I only have one, it never runs out on me while I’m out and about. It also helps that it comes with a USB charger because I’m on my laptop most of the time anyway. The draw is light. It’s not vapor heavy however it is satisfying. I’m not so crazy about a lot of vapor than I can handle and this one definitely is light for the throat especially for people who have to talk a lot for a living and experience discomfort in the throat. Usually the tobacco cigarette strains my throat and some other e-cigs that I’ve tried didn’t really help much. Smoke Frii’s e-cig gives smooth vapors that I don’t worry about smoking or vaping away while I’m dealing with a lot of customers all day.
Another plus that Smoke Frii has is that its design is better than a lot of electronic cigarettes that I’ve tried. There are only two pieces instead of three from other e-cigs. It’s easier to travel with their e-cig because I hardly need extra cartridges. At most I’d bring one. I keep the wall charger at home and keep the USB charger handy. It never fails me at all so I am very impressed with Smoke Frii. Even if the kit wasn’t cheap like the other brands, I got a very good deal from the satisfaction it gives me.

ElectronicCigarettesInc Review
I found this vendor of electronic cigarettes with the site electroniccigarettesinc.com. That was pretty easy to remember. Unlike the other vendors, they have been manufacturing and distributing their e-cigs in the U.S. which are more known as Vapor King. What I do like about Electronic Cigarettes Inc’s store is that I never need to go elsewhere to find parts, replacements or what not because they have a lot of them in stock and they also have varieties of designs to choose from.
I’ll start with the batteries which I think the ladies and any young person would appreciate. There are more color options instead of just the usual white or black. There’s red and blue for their Duo Pro series. They have three lines of e-cigs basically and the Duo Pro one appealed to me the most when it comes to functionality. The batteries, aside from having more color options, can be charged simultaneously in the charger pack. It’s this accessory that makes charging batteries a whole lot more manageable. As for the quality of the vapor, I’d say it’s pretty decent. I was happy with this line until I tried the Vapor King ones.
The Vapor King e-cigs really do live up to its advertising. I mean, it really does give you a lot of vapor. What’s even better is they have more color options for both the atomizer and the battery, my favorite of which is the stainless steel or chrome colored one. It makes me look like I’m smoking a rather stylish pen. There’s also the pink one which is chic for the ladies. If you don’t mind how the batteries have to be manually switched on, then Vapor King’s for you. I actually prefer this because the other e-cigs which are automatic can really drain the batteries out pretty quick, especially the cheap ones or the older models. They do sell the automatic ones but I haven’t tried them. I never had a problem with Vapor King’s batteries running out and they look a lot better than most designs out there.
I chose to get the manual switch batteries because I’ve tried other e-cigs that are automatic and half the time I had to modify the unit a bit or make guesses on how to have more control over the vapor. Some e-cigs just put out too much or too little. Some give you more air than vapor. That’s just one of the things that are OK if you’re trying this out but it takes some time of getting used to.
Overall, the liquid from Vapor King, yes they do sell the liquid, are OK and satisfying. I didn’t find refilling difficult. I think a cartridge is about half a pack anyway and I don’t smoke more than that a day. I’m happy staying “odorless” with the Vapor King.

BluCigs Review
I got a good deal out of buying from BluCigs. They’re not my first e-cigs. My first ones lasted six months and the batteries didn’t last a day fully charged so instead of going back and forth with customer service I decided to switch brands and give this one a try. It turns out to be a very good decision. I’ve been using Blu Cigs for almost a year now and I couldn’t be any happier.
They weren’t expensive and they’re good value for my money. I can carry them around in a case that looks like a pack of tobacco cigarettes. They’re pretty compact so they fit in my purse well. The design is classy and the functionality was reliable. The batteries last longer so I only had to use up one battery a day since I smoke like half a pack usually. The cartridges lasted me a day each as well. The vapor quality was alright. I didn’t have to make any adjustments or modifications for it to produce more vapor. It was fine as it is.
It was cheaper than the first one I bought but surprisingly the quality is a lot better. So far I don’t need any replacement parts. The batteries, charger and everything else that came in the pack still work just as well. By now I’ve saved hundreds of dollars from just using BluCigs.
I’m an e-cigs fan and I can’t tell you enough how effective electronic cigarettes are in taking you off tobacco cigarettes. In fact I hardly remember what that dirty aftertaste from smoking tobacco cigs is like. I’ve been clean for over a year. As for nicotine addiction, I’ve started using flavors with no nicotine. It’s like smoking a sheesha but a lot more satisfying.
So when looking for an electronic cigarette, it’s better to put your money in a quality e-cig. You can save a lot of money instead of buying tobacco cigs if you get the right e-cig. I’ve spent more on purchasing starter kits at the beginning but after getting on the e-cig for 3 to 6 months, you can start seeing the actual savings from switching to e-cigs.
I haven’t felt compelled to go back to tobacco cigarettes although maybe e-cigs can be acquired taste for some. I prefer how hygienic it is to use e-cigs because I don’t have to worry about the ashes or the smell or accidentally burning something. Also, I haven’t had a cough for over a year. That’s pretty much the biggest benefit I got out of e-cigs.
Anyway, my Blu Cigs purchase is so far the best that I’ve made. It really stretched my dollar. Mine still works and I’m very happy to use it.

eSmoke Review
eSmoke was a sensation when the first electronic cigarettes came out in the U.S. They’re very accessible and mostly appeal to women. They marketed their brand as something chic and a better alternative for women. Why wouldn’t it be? It removes the smelly components of smoking. Women can enjoy puffing their nicotine without having to worry about how they smell afterwards.
I tried eSmoke last year and I was surprised that the starter kit only had two batteries. There was a short one and a long one. Compared to other brands, it’s still a lot more affordable for the quality that it has. It’s actually pretty good and works well. I didn’t have any problems with the kit I got.
eSmoke doesn’t have a separate atomizer and cartridge. I guess you can call the new thing as cartomizer – It makes the electronic cigarette compact. The cartomizers have their own plastic cases so it was easy for me to switch flavors and not get any cartridge dry out quite unnecessarily. I tried chocolate, vanilla, coffee and the regular flavor. They all tasted fine. The only thing I had to get used to was the amount of air that was going in. There seems to be a little more air than the smoke or vapor itself coming in so it was like smoking something thinner. The difference between smoking this e-cigarette and a tobacco one can be felt but it didn’t really drag the quality down to a great extent. Personally it was still OK. It was enough for me to not crave for any tobacco cigarette.
I did notice that the battery on this one didn’t run out fast. I guess the model wasn’t activating erratically unlike the other ones that I’ve tried. So that means when I set it down somewhere, it won’t turn on by itself and just drain the battery. I was able to use it all day without any problems. I only used one fully charged battery that day.
I tried to lessen the air by tightening the cartomizer but it didn’t seem to work. I did notice that the air could be coming from the tip of the battery so I party covered it with a fingertip when I took a drag. It kind of worked but it didn’t really activate the battery pretty well. It was unpredictable. Other than trying to do something about the air, I didn’t feel any need to improve anything else.
All in all, eSmoke’s electronic cigarette was good buy for my money. The e-cig is designed better than other cheaper models and it was reliable all day. I do suggest the upcoming models to have better vapor density or something like that. Other than that, the e-cig was just right.

- Vapor4Life Review
Vapor4Life claims they’re the original maker of Vapor King, a now known electronic cigarette brand receiving a lot of good reviews from happy customers. There’s another Vapor King vendor and I compared their products to Vapor4Life, they’re not the same at all. The other vendor seems to carry more varieties in the atomizer, cartridges and accessories. However, Vapor4Life’s offer has more color options which I thought were fun.
So I ordered a starter kit from Vapor4Life. I placed an order Tuesday and I got at on Friday in the same week. Shipping was pretty fast. I charged the batteries overnight. I wouldn’t be bothered to time it really so I was vaping by Saturday. The experience was OK I guess. The vapor was just right. Well, I do know how to smoke an e-cig as this is not my first brand to try. I do appreciate the 6 second automatic shut off instead of 3 from the other ones that I’ve tried before.
I didn’t have to have anything replaced as I found my order from them was OK. I was a little worried about their customer service should I have any problems because the website doesn’t have a lot of information in it. I just picked this from word of mouth. I heard their customer service is ok and it probably is since I got my order shipped fairly quickly.
I do like the cig cases. The kit I got had a pass through and wall charger. Too bad it didn’t have a car charger. I guess for the price I got it for it was OK. For the cartridge, I got five in the kit. It lasted me five days. I smoke at most half a pack a day so the cartridges delivered. Compared to others, they seem to have a little more and you can puff more vapor from them.
What I do like is the number of flavors they carry. They have flavors I never thought were even possible in cigarettes. I’ve tried chocolate, orange, strawberry tobacco cigarettes. Those were fun. From Vapor4Life I tried the melon flavor just for the heck of it. It was strangely refreshing. Now I’m curious what pancake and waffle flavors taste like. I never imagined breakfast food items can be cigarette flavors, not even for sheesha but it’s an interesting experience. I’m not sure which ones have nicotine and which ones don’t. The vapor juice page has very little information other than the name of the flavor and some pictures of where the flavor is supposed to be from. I’m not sure how that was helpful but for me it did arouse some curiosity.
All in all, Vapor4Life is worth trying. Their site has limited information which may put you off but for me it was a risk worth taking. I still enjoy my “original” Vapor King.

GreenSmoke Review
I got myself an expensive Green Smoke e-cig and quite frankly, it was not what I expected from an electronic cigarette at that price. I was expecting something more high end since it is more expensive than a lot of e-cigs out there. I could buy an e-cig from an offline store for much less and not easily have anything returned if I had a problem with the battery or something else.
The first thing about Green Smoke e-cig is that it’s not the newest technology in e-cigs. Given that it’s less than half the price of the most sophisticated e-cig I thought it would be better than the cheaper ones. I was a bit disappointed that one of the batteries was not working as it should so I had it replaced. This is probably where the price is justified. It wasn’t hard to get in touch with anyone from their customer service. The only hassle was that I had to ship back the defective battery to have in replaced. Fair enough that they have a business to run so they can’t just give away freebies like that, I shipped it in and got my replacement right away.
So I didn’t have a good impression from the battery itself and I was thinking that I spent more than I should. Then I compared how Green Smoke e-cig to my other e-cigs. Maybe I got the older version that they said was going to be phased out because there’s a 3 second automatic shut off. That made taking a longer drag for more vapor impossible. I had to do 2 drags to get decent amount of vapor.
I talked to customer service about this and they recommended the Vapor Monster. I wish I knew about this in the first place so I got this e-cig from them. At least this one works the way it should. I was getting a lot of vapor alright and that was satisfying.
I was hoping that purchasing a more expensive product would be assuring but apparently it’s not in the case of Green Smoke. They do have nice products that I wish I had known about before I placed my order so I wouldn’t have to go back and forth with them. I suppose this can be worked on. Their customer service was accommodating and responds fast so that’s where the premium for their e-cigs went.
All in all, I thought their e-cigs were alright. I didn’t really have problems dealing with them either. I just wish there was more information available before I made the purchase at that time. It would have saved me a lot of effort. It’s also good to know that their e-cigs are compatible with most e-cigs out there so I didn’t have any trouble using another battery which wasn’t from them.

SmokeTip Review
I was looking around for a decent electronic cigarette starter kit and I found SmokeTip. I was happy with the price and the reviews seemed OK so I ordered a starter kit. It arrived pretty soon and it didn’t take long for me to put it together and use it. I think I charged the batteries 8 hours first. Anyway, I learned a couple of things.
First thing is that it doesn’t work like a tobacco cigarette. I found that it’s better to take a 4 second drag instead of aggressively puffing it like one would a tobacco cigarette. You can’t adjust the amount of vapor you’d get by puffing more aggressively. It’s not something that burns so no amount of suction would make the vaping process any faster. On that note, the technique in smoking e-cigs is a bit different but still similar to the sensation of smoking a tobacco cigarette. You just have to make slow drags and not hurry. It’s not going to run out fast like a tobacco cigarette on a very windy day.
My experience with smoking Smoke Tip was satisfactory. I was very happy with the price and I found cheaper accessories that work with their e-cigs. That’s great because I can save more. I’m just not sure if the cheaper accessories are just as reliable because I didn’t have any problems with Smoke Tip at all. I noticed that it has a lot of good reviews online as one of the top e-cig vendors. I believe that. I’m a happy Smoke Tip user so far. I haven’t gone back to smoking tobacco cigs since I started using it a few weeks ago.
I also noticed that my cough went away after using Smoke Tip. I’ve been afraid to see a doctor on that but thankfully now I really won’t have to. I thought it was not going to be easy to switch to e-cigs but Smoke Tip made that possible and almost effortless. I haven’t craved for a tobacco cig since. I tossed out the ash tray. I smoked anywhere anytime I wanted to, no kidding this was the best part of it all. My non-smoking friend didn’t mind me vaping in his car. He’s asthmatic so at first he was reluctant about it but after realizing that I’ve been vaping in my room all day and he didn’t find it difficult to breath around me anymore, he was totally convinced.
I would recommend Smoke Tip to non-smokers living with smokers who like to smoke in the bathroom while they do their business. I think that does annoy a lot of non-smoking roommates. So, don’t walk in a smelly room anymore. I bet your roommate would switch to e-cigs permanently when he or she tries Smoke Tip.

South Beach Smoke Review
When it comes to finding good e-cigarette brand reviews online, there seems to be more misinformation than information. As their popularity grows in the United States and beyond, finding quality information about these products becomes a very pressing matter. Here are two honest facts that can guide any first-time or long-time e-cigarette user. First of all, this product doesn’t work for everyone. Some people find switching from traditional cigarettes to e-cigarettes the easiest transition they’ve ever made, however, others find it more difficult and take longer to switch or give up on the product altogether. Another interesting fact is that among the top e-cigarette companies, their models are very similar in design. Some of them have slightly longer battery life and other produce slightly more vapor, but side-by-side they are very similar.
Despite having similar designs to other products, South Beach Smoke has been rated #1 by consumer reports when it comes to battery life and vapor produced, which are generally the two most important e-cigarette qualities. Another important design quality is the realistic look and feel of these products which makes enhances the smoking experience prevents curious encounters in public places.

The main non-design qualities of an e-cigarette product are price and customer service. Of the top four companies, no one offers the same quality, price and customer service as South Beach Smoke. The numbers do not lie; top e-cigarette companies offer their starter kits for around $100 whereas South Beach Smoke offers their product for as low as $29.99 for their standard model and $49.99 for their upgraded starter kit model. South Beach Smoke can afford to offer these prices because they have an incredible retention rate and high levels of customer satisfaction.
Customer service is a key component when purchasing e-cigarettes. As with all electronic devices, problems may occur and they must be resolved quickly, especially when it comes to smoking devices. Being constantly available is a must of an e-cigarette company and South Beach Smoke has superb all-around customer service.
South Beach Smoke also provides “peaceofmind” in the ordering process by providing a 30-day money back guarantee. And, if a customer chooses to sign up for the home delivery program, they can cancel at any time with no strings attached or hoops to jump through. Many customers choose the Home Delivery Program because it provides a steady supply of cartridges at a frequency of their choosing and allows them to save 30% on every cartridge order… even more impressive is that HDP members receive a Lifetime Warranty which includes replacement of faulty and ‘dead’ batteries. No other e-cigarette company out there is offering this at the time of writing.
