Those things are really inefficient, and you're still going to be addicted to nicotine. Better to go cold turkey than to ween yourself off with cigs imo.
The new models give you big hits, the old models did kind of suck, only gave a decent hit less than half the time, leaked in your mouth, they had quite a few design flaws.
Titan and tornado are the newer models.

Yeah I was reading not too long ago about the cartridges being "used" up but still being half full. Among other articles questions the efficiency of vaping the nicotine. IDK. I don't smoke anyways.

You can tell the difference in the taste when the cartridge is running out.
Then you just take your liquid and refill the cartridge with a few drops and it is like a new cart again. The new ones are very persistent in giving big hits.

I quit completely about two weeks ago after smoking for 6 years, still going strong but get cravings every so often mostly when drinking and around people smoking.
The first few days are the hardest but after about a week you forget you even smoked, well for me anyway. Everyone who knows me is surprised even got £20 from a freind who bet that I wouldn't last a week, although it's still early days i can't see myself ever smoking again.
edit: forget about e-cigs or any of that shit, just quit and when u have cravings search for anti-smoking ads and pictures of smokers lungs, it works as good motivation for me

The best way to quit smoking is to equate it to something you already hate.
Such are poor lung capacity and cancer.
My wife and I are on day 3 of no cigarettes right now...
The other day, when she compared smoking cigarettes to the addiction of meth, it really clicked in my head. I mean, there's a lot of the same chemicals in a cigarette that are used to make meth. Now, I'm NOT a tweaker, I HATE the shit. I tried it once, and I think god there wasn't any more around for me to do, otherwise, I'd probably still be hooked!
So, every time I think of wanting a cigarette, I tell myself "Well, why don't you go get some ice to smoke while you're at it?"
That usually kills the craving for me pretty well... lol

That's a really good way to look at it.
Exercising is also a great way to distract yourself and learn new ways to feel good. Even going for long walks is sufficient exercise. A good healthy diet too will help make you feel better.
Of course, both will help you overcome the damage to your body caused by cigarettes and will help withdrawal go by a lot faster and more painlessly.
I developed chronic anxiety from severe abuse of methylphenidate and coke. Psilocybin mushrooms and pot may have also played a part. Cigarettes began to severely agitate my anxiety a lot. It got to a point where it was just completely unenjoyable to smoke. So I guess in that sense I was lucky. I gave up caffeine too.
Withdrawing sucked of course, and every time I craved or really wanted one, I went running or I grabbed my gym bag and went straight to the gym. Keep yourself distracted and make something healthy your stress relief.

So, it's been 11 days for me and my wife now... Still getting bad cravings, but that's to be expected, as we live with two people who still smoke inside the house.
I'm pretty sure this time we'll quit for good! I've been feeling SO much better these days. I'm coughing up black crap out of my lungs every day... lol

Yea, I love South Park too! But all the dumb ass quit-smoking shit that they come up with for kids these days, it's retarded!
I know they were just making fun of that, like they do to everything else, but still... It's just dumb... lol

I wouldn't say that, honestly. I think about 45% of all the smokers I know say that if they could figure out how to quit, they would. Older smokers know, but are too entrenched in habit to kick it.
Younger smokers might know, but they're the ones that don't give a flying fuck. They like it, and think it's cool, or whatever their reasoning is... But by the time they realize it's something they really don't want to do for the rest of their life, it's too late, and they're irrevocably hooked.

Yeah the reasons cigs are so addictive is not only do you have a strong physical addiction, nicotine, but you also have a strong habituation. Cig while you're driving, cig on break, cig when you wake up ect. You find out that you smoke while doing so many activities and those activities become cues for you to light up.
