Why must us silly humans be afraid of being honest or doing something that's not normal.
I used to lie a lot when I was younger for various reasons. Mainly because I was concerned what the other person's would think. Now I just don't give a rats ass and it's truly liberating. The truth will set you free!

As she's a woman (obviously!) You should get her a couple of mini eGos for out n about, 350mah, available from thebestshop and bargainvapour. These are what I usually use (I'm also female btw) outside home as they're so tiny and discreet but they pack a nice little punch too. Around 8eur each and can be charged using her existing eGo charger.
Thanks csi
I will have a look and may put an order in today

im guessing somewhat your not 18 or so,to hide it from your family,but since you told congrats on that.
I was long time smoker myself (too long) anyway it takes tool on you eventually event at age of 25.So quit for two years then came back again on smokes,until figured out its enough.Bought my first kit and since there are two other smokers in the family,it took about two weeks for them to convert.Firstly they were skeptic,as beginning is hardest finding juices you like as variety is over 300 or so,then buying first kit is important as one bad ,on juices or wrong kit might put you off right away.Anyway long story short,my father smoked over 30 years,heavy smoker,so once i figured out what juice is best and how everything works,everything went smooth afterwards as he would start using my device on some occasions and liked it.So one day got him his own kit,now all family smokers have one,and no one smoked for a month or so,as main advantage is you dont need to go outside to light up,second your lungs start clearing very fast no more horrible coughs every morning.Even switching between nic amount was easy after couple weeks as we went from 18mgs to 12 with no difference or crave for higher nic intake.Only trouble i find is Work,kits can be hard to carry around,and to have a nice vape you need time at least 5-10 mins to enjoy it.But once vaping the need to have some nic is decreased as well,where one might smoked 5-10 during work,once vaping its enough 3-5 times to get enough nic to keep you going for the day.there are some more disadvantages like when going out,runing low on liquids,dead battery,vaping in public.But myself id encourage peers to convert someone in their family who is smoker to give them a try for a week on e-cigs and see how it goes ,as worst person will lose 0 by the end if they dont like it,because most kits and liquids can be bought under 50 euro for beginners with plenty of juice to try,and that amount is average amount that most smokers would spend weekly on smokes.0 -

What do you use on the top of those 350mah Egos csi vegas? Cartos or clearos?
I saw some mini cartos somewhere but cant remember where!
Thought it would be a great little set up for a stealth vape

I'm nearly 22 man! Lol
Anyways all worked out in the end she seems happy anyways 0 -
Hi Ghogie91! I think you have done a great thing! I would be delighted if my Son did something like that for me.
I started smoking when I was about 14 or 15, I was a pretty heavy smoker for 26/27 years till I gave up 5 weeks ago thanks to vaping! Parents who smoke hate the thoughts of their kids picking up their smoking habit, they blame themselves.
A few years ago I had left the house to go to work when I remembered I'd forgotten something, so I had to go back to the house. (it just happened to be Mothers day) I walked into the house and there was my Son standing in the middle of the room with music blaring and a cigarette stuck in his gob! :eek: He was shocked when he saw me and he said "its not mine... I didn't.... Eh?" I went mental. He was only 18 at the time, I was heartbroken that he'd started smoking. Thankfully two years later he quit smoking and he hates them now.
So I can totally understand why you didn't want to tell you Mum that you were smoking. I bet you feel better now that you've told her the whole story. I bet your Mum is very proud of you knowing that you gave up smoking. It must mean the world to her knowing that you cared so much about her that you set her up with an e-cig. Mothers really love when their kids fuss over them!
Best of luck to both of you. You and your Mum sound very close. Yous can be vaping buddies now! 0 -

You can use most things - cartomizers (as in Boge) or clearomizers (like eVod, mini Vivi Nova, T2, T3, Gemini clearomizer, iSmoka mini bcc, Vision Nano clearomizer) - they all look great atop the 350!
There is also a 450mah mini eGo available too on one (or maybe both) the sites.
I've just spent the last 40 mins Googling images for me you.
I'm not obsessed....
Below ont he left is a 350 with T2 (I think) and the right with a Smoktech mini carto (note though that these mini cartos will hold v little juice and also are rare/discontinued/N/A in Europe) - gives you a perfect demo of its size.
Hope they show up...

Cheers. The left one isn't showing but the right is. I know the T2 but if the mini cartos aren't even available in Europe ill not bother thinking about it.
Maybe as the later posts said ill look at getting a igo s. just don't know where to start with rebuilding. Gotta start somewhere I suppose!!0 -

First two weeks are the hardest when going CT,so you lasted almost one week,before deciding on vaping consider do you still want to be on nicotine fix ? or do you want to give up completely which is possible,as its tough habit to break but nothing major once couple weeks pass.shamrock55 wrote: »Im trying to give up cigs again cold turkey, im only off them since sunday and im finding it pretty tough at the moment, i was wondering would e cigs be a good alternative i have no idea about them whatsoever could someone point me in the right direction as to what i should get, i smoked sk purple about 10 to 15 a day if thats of any use thanks:)
Once you make up your mind,and want to vape consider maybe using 0 nic liquids with strong flavour mint or smth-cant really advice on juice whats nice and not.that way it will keep your habit of inhaling and having something in your hand to occupy you while your going trough cold turkey,and device to have if you find sudden urge to smoke,but this way you would be completely of nicotine.Otherwise if you want jump aboard
spend a little bit of money on better kit and plenty of juices with 12-16mg of nic liquids and see where it leads you,as either choice will be a lot healthier than smoking cigarettes.GL0 -

REPOST of the below as a test of why some images I try post don't show and some do...I got that red 'X' problemo atm, tried everything, may have found ONE solution...
First image now showing for me whereas it didn't yesterday. Damn Pic Resize.You can use most things - cartomizers (as in Boge) or clearomizers (like eVod, mini Vivi Nova, T2, T3, Gemini clearomizer, iSmoka mini bcc, Vision Nano clearomizer) - they all look great atop the 350!

this starter kit will give you more options for tweaking the heat that goes to the coil which heats up the e-liquid which you inhale. it also comes with a sample pack and a large bottle of e-liquids, you just choose 5 from this list, and one 30ml bottle from this list. they're more like a skinny cigar i suppose. bigger than a cigarette but still small. that sounds ridiculous when you type it out though. :rolleyes:
there's a few options in the drop down lists - the first one is the type of tank that goes on top of the battery - i've used all 3 - personal choice here but i'd probably go with the iclear 16's. you unscrew the mouthpiece, carefully pour in your liquid, screw back on the mouthpiece, screw it onto your battery, turn your battery on. these batteries are 'variable voltage' so you can fiddle with the dial on the bottom of yer battery turning the voltage up or down till you're getting a nice balance between amount of vapour and flavour. yer now vaping!
second drop down menu is the size of the batteries - 650mah or 900mah, higher the number the longer the battery lasts between charges. not a lot of physical size difference between them to be honest. how long the battery lasts you will depend on how much you use it and how high a voltage yer using.
there's no smoke - just water vapour exhaled. nic or no nic juice is up to you really. you could prop yourself up and use nic juice for a while and lower your levels as you go on. or you could get some flavours of e-liquid that give you enough throat hit and in/exhale sensation to go nic free from the start. personally i'm confident enough in the lack of negative effects nicotine has to worry about giving it up altogether. vaping is infentismally [not even gonna bother googling how to spell that] safer than smoking and it eliminates the spare hand syndome you'd go through with cold turkey so the day you pick it up yer onto a winner anyway. others here might feel different.
i've probably left loads out there but grindle bet me in the typing race and i sure as hell wasn't gonna delete all this bloody typing once i'd started
