I never heard of it before and it sounds like a good idea I'll have to check into it.
The only thing that bothered me is at the end they asked me to sign a petition to
"Save the Polar Bears" and to stop Arctic drilling now.
Uhhh ... that would be NO
I see a lot of interest here. If anyone has questions, by all means feel free to PM me and I will be more than happy to share information. Be warned: As with anything else, there are some vendors out there making false claims and selling junk. READ before you buy. If you want to skip the reading, I can give a couple of recommendations on reputable vendors who are honest and devices that I know work. Keep in mind that this technology is in its infancy and you should expect that it does have its own problems. For me, the benefits far outweigh the negatives.
As Freepers, I know I really dont need to pass on common sense statements, but I want you all to keep in mind that you are dealing with vegetable glycerin that is 100% safe, but it is laced with nicotine, ie: 100% pure poison to children. Get yourself a lock box if you keep this in your home with kids or pets. If I were posting this on DU, Id have to clamor on about safety since they cant think for themselves over there, but you all get it.
I didn't want this to turn into a promotional thread, but I guess that is to be expected since this is such an exciting thing for smokers. Most people discourage using any kind of device to inhale nicotine and I do as well. Dont just pick this up for the fun of it if you arent a current smoker. Its not safe. Its just WAY safer than smoking tobacco. But if you are in the same position as all the rest of us who are already smokers, this is a way out.
Also pay attention to WHERE you are buying from. Most of these vendors are in China or UK. Be prepared to wait several weeks in some cases if you buy from overseas.
