It is interesting that our customer base brings such a variety of people that are choosing to try vaping. This proves that the market for electronic cigarettes does not discriminate and that anybody can choose to take up vaping at any stage and for any reason. Many of our customers express that they have chosen to try ecigs as a way to try to give up smoking. They say that even though we do not sell nicotine, that they feel that electronic cigarettes provide a psychological hand to mouth movement that they are so used to when they smoked cigarettes.
Electronic cigarettes are relatively new in the mainstream technology stakes, but we are surprised that vaping has been met by such controversy. In Australia there is such ill informed press regarding these devices that one does begin to wonder why people would want to rally to ban such a product, particularly when it does not directly concern them. In Australia today, there are many other issues thats should be controversial such as the pill that is prescribed for giving up smoking, Champix.

Hi I would just like to say "Thank You" for the first time in 37 years I have been smoke free thanks to your store and your Ego CE4-T unit's, I have not had 1 cigarette for 2 day's now and I owe it all to your Store and products and the informative information you you have about E-cig's etc. Just in one day I went from a full time smoker to an E-Vapor and my Carbon Dioxide reading went from 59 down to 10, that's a reading of only 2.2% when I went to see my Stop Smoking nurse and she was amazed as I was to get such a quick response from just vaporizing for one day.
A few vapers experience some symptoms when converting from cigarettes to vaping as the body no longer has to deal with the excreted tar and ash and instead begins to clear out the accumulated gunk. Nicotine intake from vaping is generally quite a lot lower so there might be some withdrawal symptoms too, which is often mitigated by increased vaping in the first days. From there though, things just get better and better. Soon the cough is gone, breathing is easier, and energy levels start rising; so much so that people often begin to get more active in their daily lives.
The G4 Cartomizers are an added accessory for the eVape collection. They have a large capacity and can screw into any 510 or ego battery. They are well priced and can be used in place of an atomiser and cartridge. When vaping, they really pack a punch and work by pushing 3.2- 3.7 voltage through. The juice burns at a pleasant rate and the G4's are small enough to carry around with you so you can use different flavours. The good thing about them too is that they are refillable, so you really get value for money.
Many of our customers feel comfortable sticking to the juices that have made them comfortable since starting to vape. Popular choices include tobacco flavours, menthols and fruit flavours. Don't get us wrong, we are very partial to those flavours, in fact Strawberry is an in house favourite! We do get a sense of delightment when a customer orders an exotic collection of juice flavours to try, such as vodka peach, buttered popcorn, bubblegum or rum raisin. It is not surprising that those customers come back and order, again and again and again.
Another year, another uptick in the number of youth puffing on vaporized tobacco.
A new study by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) found that e-cigarettes are becoming increasingly popular among high school students, a trend the agency warns could undermine some of the progress made in reducing tobacco use among adolescents.
"We've seen continued declines in tobacco use, but e-cigarette use is rising and that's troubling," said Brian King, senior adviser with the office on smoking and health at the CDC. "Any use is hazardous to the health of youths."
A public health agency dependent on cigarette taxes for its funding may ask state lawmakers to tax electronic cigarettes to help make up for a decline in consumption of traditional tobacco, says an official for its San Diego branch.

Two new studies have found that far more kids are using electronic cigarettes than previously reported, raising fears that the products could hook another generation on nicotine even as cigarette use is falling.
About 25% of high school students in Connecticut and 29% of teens in Hawaii have used e-cigarettes, according to separate studies. About 18% of the Hawaii teens and 12% of the Connecticut high school students had used e-cigarettes in the past month. Both studies were done in 2013.

(Reuters) - Preliminary results from the largest U.S. survey of tobacco consumption show a high number of people use multiple products, adding key data to the debate on the role of e-cigarettes in reducing harm from tobacco.
The results of the study, released Thursday, showed 40 percent of tobacco consumers use multiple products, such as cigarillos, hookah and cigars. Half of all combinations involved e-cigarettes.
As a research psychiatrist who has spent most of my professional life looking for ways to mitigate the harms of addictive drugs, the concept of replacing a very harmful drug such as heroin with a safer one such as buprenorphine (Suboxone/Subutex) makes perfect sense. However when the same logic is applied in the market place, rather than in the consulting room, a different logic seems to apply. Smoked tobacco is the leading cause of premature death in the world today killing around 6 million people per year.

A better-known proposal among the public is to increase the size of warnings to 85 per cent of the surface of tobacco packets. But what is intriguing is the government’s insistence on retaining the display of the tar and nicotine yields, despite international guidelines and expert advice.

to make them nonaddictive, while taking a go-slow approach to adopting
new regulations on electronic cigarettes and other devices that are
