I think there was a thread on this recently in, of all places, the Band Management sub-forum.

I use one, its the best smoking cessation device ever created.

Anyone who tells you differently probably works for big tobacco. Not just little tobacco, but the big one.

Same idea, except you're vaporizing an oil/alcohol/nicotine/flavoring mixture instead of plant matter. Same idea but it vaporizes at a lower temperature.

I used http://www.electronic-ash.com/estore/ to purchase the solution and actually used their physical store for the initial purchase. It actually looks like prices have come down even more.

It is zen cart But it gets the job done.

Check with Tim Cole. I know he's used one, and I think he may have a hook up with a manufacturer.

I bought one for my GF from puresmoker.com. With the hopes of ending her addiction to regular cigarretes. However after two weeks she says it just isn't the same and continues to smoke her camels. She does use it though. i'm not exactly sure if she is smoking any less or if now her nicotine intake has increased. It is really sad.

Good if you're going to be stuck indoors for a while--at at show, at work, etc.

Otherwise, I'll stick to real ones.

A friend of mine's wife uses one and she let me try it. it was hard to get used to to first u don't draw like you normally would from a real one if you do u get the oil or whatever it is all over your mouth and it's not real tasty.Hers came in a kit with 2 and cost around 150$
she had flavors like Marlboro light in hers had the badge on the bottle
