That atomizer often has a primer liquid on it that is pretty nasty to inhale. Typically user blow the fluid out of it to clean it off first.

    that might be it, my friend just bought it recently maybe he doesn't use it properly

    I didn't like it all that much..........

      Well eventually whether you clean it off yourself or not it will "vape" off.

        Will tell him to check it properly

        I won't use it again............. and what seemed funny.... I'm actually promoting e-cigs on one of sites but of of the videos I've seen .... the vapors in the videos looked like vapors.....

        The vapors from Light Smoke really do look like smoke...... you just can't tell that it's vapors lol............. they look and float exactly like smoke does.......

          Well, I for one stopped smoking with the help of e-cigs before I found out about snus. It is a good option for those who need to mimick smoking before they stop completely.

            it helps to a certain extent but I'm still not convinced how healthy this thing is.....

              Well all that is in it is the following:

              the nicotine - no need to expand on that here
              the flavoring - typically the same flavoring you find on many food items in the grocery store
              the base liquid - usually polypropylene glycol, found typically in asthma inhalers and fog machines, some people (about 10%) are allergic to it and use vegetable glycerin based liquids instead.

              None of those are inherently dangerous in any way. However if the chinese production process tends to have impurities in the liquids...

              I was already pretty much not smoking but had some on occasion, sometimes too many on occasion. The E-Cig was the nail in the coffin on me buying packs of cigarettes or smoking them.

                  Love my E-cigs !! but I go back and forth from Ecig to Snus to a bump or two of nasal snuff and I will never smoke another cigarette ever again and it all happened because of the mighty E-cig !!!

                  Precious007 you probably just tried a sub par ecig , one of the best starter ecigs are called the EGO if you can try one of those do it , and I really don't care for the tobacco flavored liquids , I enjoy the fruit and cola , other sweet candy type flavors but there are

                  some really nice tobacco flavors just the china made ones are nasty ...


                  Ecig cost = about $50 for a starter kit , $30 give or take for a month or 2 of liquid , atomizers fail but can last months on end about $5-10 a piece really comes out to a Few dollars a month in my case
                  Snusing cost= depends on your usage I use about 2-6 portions or prillas a day so my cost is very low , but importing a roll can cost me anywhere from $50 - $140 depending on if it gets dinged customs fee's

                          Green Smoke is a premium e-cig....

                          Top rated worldwide...... there's also Blue Cig.. and some other.... that's why it comes more expensive than others.....

                          it's like buying a pair of Nike Shox II over a crappy pair of shoes... no one complained about Green Smoke.... anyways I was never temped to switch from snus... to ecig... I wouldn't do that ....... especially after I tried today

                          P.S It's $55 for 4 cartridges ......

                          and $103.92 for 8 .... that basically means an average one pack a day smoker would spend

                          $330 on cartridges every month !

                            no Greensmoke is not the #1 rated anything , not comparable to cheap or chic etc , Just mass marketed to make you think that !!! they lie about the cartridges life and all , ask any ecig user that isn't a noob and they will tell you carts Suck !!

                            check out the ECF forum for info if you want to see

                              you might be right...

                              but come on, I've been into marketing for a while.....

                              for that price it can't be crappy........ they would get insane amounts of charge backs and their business would be dead in no time.....

                              In your opinion which is the most "SOLID" e-cigarette?

                                I got a revolver infiniti ion, I used to love it when I first got it in, very solid build, and quality product, not to mention the CS at revolver is orgasmically good, they will send you replacements no questions asked if something takes a dump on you. It had a great vapor output and a throat hit that would knock you on your ass.

                                But it was still a PITA just like all the others I have tried, no consistency and they will break down or stop working, battery dies, atty dies, ect...

                                Not only that, since I first tried e-cigs after having stopped smoking a while ago and having switched to snus from chew, I didn't like the short acting nic at all, nice buzz for 3 minutes then nothing, and if you rely soley on that for nic, you will be getting nasty withdrawals rather shortly after using it. Just like cigs, quick spike then drop off...
