I use the Janty Dura-C and the DSE 510.

What's the cost for these devices and the related supplies? Inquiring addicts want to know...

Cost isn't really one of the benefits. I would say you could cut it about in half though. Depends on your habits.

I can warn you though, if you have gadget weaknesses, you can spend yourself into oblivion. Once you realize what this device can do for you, you want as many of them as you can get. I started hoarding the stuff fearing the bans.

I strongly suggest doing a lot of reading in the forums so you can decide which on is for you, otherwise, you can spend a lot of cash before you settle in on the right thing.

There is also a convenience factor. If you are a DIY type, you can save a ton of money. If you want to avoid all hassles and just open, use and discard, the savings can be less attractive.

The freedom aspect of it appeals to me just as much as the health aspects. I can sit at my desk at work and puff away on this thing. I no longer have to brave the weather to get my fix. I can puff away in the car with my wife and kids without worry. It really is liberating.

The Dura-C and the DSE 510 are interchangeable. Each comes with 2 batteries, 2 atomizers, a battery charger and 5 filled cartridge - usually with some “tobacco” flavor nic juice. The Dura-C was around 55.00 and the DSE around 45.00. You can also buy extra atomizers or batteries a la carte.

Nic juice can be purchased in many flavors, my personal favorite being apple. You can buy in 10ml quantities for about 9.00, and you can buy in varying amounts of nicotine per ml. Totallywicked e-juice(don’t know the url) sells nic juice in 30ml quantities for 19.99. You can also buy blank cartridges that you fill with the juice yourself. The cartridges are made of a plastic tube filled with polyfil batting. You can save money by purchasing the batting yourself (some people use fish tank filter material) and reusing the cartridges after the batting becomes too used to vape properly.

The problem lies in the fact that the e-cig is starting to pick up steam (or vapor, pardon the pun) in the US. They’ve been around the UK for quite some time. Distributors run out of stock almost as soon as they get it in.

Personally, I find them to be as good as, or better than regular cigs, because I like the flavoring. Plus, even though I’m still getting nicotine, what I’m NOT getting is all the chemicals in the cigarette. Neither is my family.

A positive is, since what you exhale is essentially steam, you aren’t smoking. People are doing it on airplanes, at work, in restaurants, etc.

BTW, I found out about the e-cig here on Freerepublic. If you look back in the forums about the cig tax going up on March 31 (the thread was that date), you’ll find a post to the thread with links. Try www.e-cigarette-forum.com for lots of info and videos.

Hope that helps.
