The best electronic cigarette kits on the market today satisfy these main 5 requirements. If you’re looking to switch from smoking tobacco to the healthier and cheaper electronic alternative, then it makes sense to bear them in mind.
Good Design
Most electronic cigarettes are designed to be as similar as possible to a normal cigarette – roughly the same size, with a white cylinder containing the battery and electronics, and a brown cartridge where the filter would normally be, which holds the nicotine/flavoring solution. Some manufacturers produce units in a wide variety of colors, but the basic design remains the same. The aesthetics are a matter of taste, but obviously you want to choose a model which will give you years of trouble-free service, so build quality is important. Read some reviews to find the best performing models.
One thing to consider is that although the atomizer (used by all electronic cigarettes to vaporize the nicotine solution) is most often a separate part of the device, Vapornine’s model uses what it calls a ‘cartomizer’ – the atomizer is part of the cartridge. Since atomizers require maintenance and cleaning, having a new one incorporated in every fresh cartridge is a big advantage.
Smoking Satisfaction
If you’re a smoker who wants to change to using ecigarettes, then you’re probably looking for an experience which is as similar as possible to smoking a normal cigarette – just healthier and cheaper! The two factors you need to consider here are the taste and strength of the supplied cartridges, and the amount of vapor the device produces. Cartridges come with varying amounts of nicotine, from 0mg up to 24mg. If you want to maintain your current nicotine intake, then buy a kit which offers cartridges with the same content. A model which produces a large amount of vapor is much more satifying to smoke than one which produces a wisp of steam.
Battery Life
Pick a unit which offers good battery life and quick re-charging. You should look for a device which gives a full day’s use from a single charge and a recharge time of 3 to 4 hours or less. Look for a kit which comes with two batteries (or provides additional batteries for a reasonable price), so you always have a charged up spare to swap out. A recent development is the portable charging kit, a device which allows you to recharge the cigarette’s batteries up to five times without needing a power source.
Cartridge Life
Although it’s considerably cheaper to use electronic cigarettes instead of tobacco ones (you should save at least 40% to 50% of what you would be spending on tobacco cigarettes), you still want your chosen kit to come with cartridges that last a reasonable time. Companies quote varying ratios – some say their cartridges last for the equivalent of 15 cigarettes, some say right up to 40. Though it has to be said that the higher figures quoted are probably over-ambitious. A good way to save more money is to look for units which come with refillable cartridges. You can then buy bottles of the nicotine/flavoring liquid of your choice and refill the cartridges yourself.
Accessories
If you’re out on the road a lot, then consider buying a kit which offers an optional car charger or one of the new portable chargers. Check the cost of replacement parts; all rechargeable batteries have a limited lifespan and so need to be replaced eventually. Likewise, atomizers can sometimes need replacing.
