My brother came home from overseas with one and I had a wee shot. It's weird, totally feels like smoking. I looked into them on Ebay etc but apparantly they aren't a recognised stop smoking product in the same way the gum and patches etc are. They aren't as regulated and from what I could tell there were questions around possible health risks but can't be worse than what you inhale with a real one! |

Just the other day I bought some for a friend on Amazon. Hope she uses them to stop.
I do wonder why they've not been subjected to some sort of government investigation yet, as they've been around for a while now and more and more people are using them.
The government is able to react quickly when it wants to, for example with banning the plant food that gets you high whose name escapes me.
The cynic in me thinks that the government doesn't want to approve it because people may switch and the amount of tax they get is less on the electronic ones than the real ones so the Treasury will be worse off. Plus, if people switch and then stop smoking, they won't die as young so the pensions deficit will only get worse. And the NHS won't be able to cope with the increased number of OAPs needing zimmer frames and hip replacements. |

"Anyone use them ?
Just wondering where to purchase them and wanted the menthol sort "

near the sounds of the wimborne quarter jack! |
I nkow someone who had one for a while but it didn`t work for him. One strange thing is that he could legally "smoke" in places he would otherwise have be banned from! |
