In 2009, an American newspaper known as the New York Times published an article in which the resultant opinion of the author was that electronic cigarettes are both “safe” and “healthy”. Unfortunately, while there is plenty of evidence which proves that e-cigarettes are far healthier and less likely to cause cancer and other diseases and disorders than traditional, tobacco filled, cigarettes, there is still no conclusive evidence that electronic cigarettes, in and of themselves, are “safe” and “healthy”. What should thus have been a matter for simple disagreement concerning the editorial responsibility of the New York Times instead became a major legal case, complete with international ramifications.

After the New York Times published the article in which they alleged that electronic cigarettes were “safe” and “healthy”, the United States Federal Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued an immediate challenge to this “unverified” claim. This federal agency quickly moved in and halted all foreign shipments (importation) of e-cigarette products into the United States and all of its territories. This was billed as a “safety review”, and was to remain in effect until such time as a thorough and formal review of electronic cigarettes and their effects could be conducted.

Since all current models of e-cigarettes are foreign made, this decision on the part of the Food and Drug Administration quickly raised some suspicious eyebrows. Could this merely be a huge bluff made by the FDA, thanks in large part to lobbying efforts by the silent, unseen, but very deadly and efficient, representatives of Big Tobacco? After all, tobacco is a huge cash cow in the United States, for both the domestic and foreign markets. Many viewed this freeze on the sale of electronic cigarette products as a simple “protectionist” move on the part of a huge chunk of the American domestic economy.

The Food and Drug Administration then proceeded to perform several tests on electronic cigarette products in its official laboratories, and quickly pointed out that one of the cartridges used for providing “flavoring” for certain brands of e-cigarettes had tested positive for a small trace amount of DEG, a substance which is very harmful for humans when they inadvertently ingest it. However, this presence of DEG was due to the fact that the cartridge tested was from a “tobacco” flavored electronic cigarette. None of the “normal”, pure water vapor, e-cigarettes contained DEG.

My Green Smoke E-Cigarette Experience

Like a lot of you fellow smokers out there, I used to run into a lot of grief for choosing to smoke. I’d hear it all the time from my friends and family. “Stop smoking! You’ll give yourself cancer and lung disease, you fool!” And, of course, there were the associated hassles of not being able to smoke on airplanes, busses, airports, or in restaurants, or even bars! There was always the “guilt trip” people who should have been minding their own affairs would give me over the issue of so-called “second hand smoke” as well. Finally, I got sick of it all, and decided to quit altogether. Not because I hated smoking -I loved it, and still do!- but because I was sick of meddling, nosy strangers, “concerned” relatives, and the actions of the state and federal government as well. So, I left traditional, tobacco filled, cigarettes behind, forever and for good!

The Green Smoke E-Cigarette

Since then, I’ve discovered the Green Smoke E-cigarette, and I’ve never looked back. It’s a fantastic new product which perfectly simulates the experience of smoking, with none of the harmful side effects or mess!

 2-Part Green Smoke E-Cigarette Technology

The two part system of a Green Smoke E-cigarette is simple, ingenious, very effective, and very convenient to utilize.

The long one will do its job for up to 24 hours, which gives me a full day of smoking satisfaction! That’s a heck of a lot more than you’d receive from any normal, traditional, tobacco filled cigarette, that’s for sure! As stated above, the cartridges of a Green Smoke e-cigarette are very easy to use, and are fully disposable once you’re done with them. There a few flavors to choose from as well, although for the American market, they are somewhat limited at the present time. This is expected to change in the near future, when all of the international flavors will finally be allowed to be marketed in the United States.

Don’t miss this chance to get a truly unique e cigarette kit being offered right now for a limited time only by V2 Cigs. I waited until I placed an order for one myself before writing this post because supplies are limited, and they are selling them on a first-come first-serve basis. I have to admit that I am in fact, not ordering my kit for my mom. I remember my girlfriend saying that she wished she could get a pink e cigarette, but I told her not to because back when she said that, they were not being made by any reputable companies. I instead insisted that she order herself a high quality kit, and not just get one for the flashy batteries.

Now that the best e cigarette company I know of is offering e cigarette kits in pink I decided that I would have to order one for her. We already have and share a couples kit from v2 cigs. I got myself a extra blue battery from v2 a while back, after we receive these new batteries we are going to have so many e cigarettes lying around, we are never gonna have to worry about having one charged and ready to go again.

I think I am going to send my mom a bag of her favorite coffee for Mothers Day with a card. I don’t think she would be that excited about a pink e cigarette. My girlfriend on the other hand is not going to care about the Mothers Day packaging but she is guaranteed to be excited about a new pink e cigarette for herself. I found the ad for it by chance and I have not told her about it yet. Now my only debate is whether to give it to her out of the blue as a gift for no particular reason, or whether I should wait for a holiday, or her birthday (in November).

I think I like the idea of a spontaneous gift for her. I sometimes miss holidays but if I get spontaneous gifts for her throughout the year it makes up for it. right?

Anyway if you know someone who would appreciate a unique pink e cigarette kit from V2 Cigs. Or you yourself would. Order soon, because like I said before, they are only being offered for a limited time, and they have only a limited supply.

One last thing- The Mothers Day pink e cigarette kit comes with two batteries and cartridges, and is actually ten dollars less than the standard kit made by V2 Cigs that comes with two batteries. So get a coupon code, get a super unique e cig kit, and save some money while you do it!

Although blu cigs e cigarettes were one of the first brands to make a name for themselves, and e cigarettes in general, they have since been surpassed by their competitors. Blu cigs were in fact the first brand of e cigarette that I heard of, and the first brand I tried. They make a very flashy, nice looking product, which is probably why I got one for myself. Unfortunately they do not work very well at all.

After trying out the blu cig for a while I decided that e cigarettes were a rip-off and a waste of money. I had such a horrible experience with mine when I was trying to quit smoking that I nearly went into a rage once when the e cigarette I had gotten from them refused to work for me anymore. It never worked great, and it only did that for a couple months before it stopped working altogether.

Imagine you are quitting smoking. You decided to try out e cigarettes to see if they can help you to get over the habit. Unfortunately you ordered the glitzy looking one online that looks cool but doesn’t work very well at all. You are having a cigarette craving and decide to use your new blu cig e cigarette. You have charged the battery, the cartridge is bran new. The first two drags you take are great. It tastes like a cigarette, smokes like a cigarette, yet you are not smoking. You feel great, until you try to take a third drag. All of a sudden it doesn’t taste right and it doesn’t produce any vapor. Oh well you say to yourself, it probably has a problem I can easily fix. You take it apart, double check that the battery is fully charged (it is), make sure the cartridge you are using really is bran new (it is), look at the little atomizer, blow on it, it heats up, so you put it back together. Again, the first two drags are great, and then it stops working again.

I must have done this ten times in a row. While also looking up everything I could online about what could be wrong with it, and finding nothing helpful. Finally I found something that I considered useful information, a e cigarette review site that said blu cigs is one of the worst e cigs on the market. If only I had found that review before I bought it…

Turns out blu cigs although being one of the first big name, popular e cigarette brands, had been outpaced by a bunch of other e cig brands since they started out. I really felt bad because I had showed it to my mom who is an ex smoker and told her how cool it was before it totally crapped out on me. She went and ordered one for herself and got even worse results than I did. Hers took about two months to get to her, and it came with a bunch of dried up cartridges that didn’t work at all.

At this point I had pretty much given up on e cigarettes altogether. I was still not smoking and I probably never would have tried them again had it not been for a friend of mine that let me use his greensmoke e cig. It worked so much better than the blu I had gotten that I got pissed off all over again that I had wasted my money on the blu cig. After trying out my friends grrensmoke I decided to give e cigs anther try.

This time I read all the e cigarette reviews I could find first, before placing my order. I heard and saw a lot of good things being said about v2 cigs so I decided to give them a try. I have since then received my new v2 e cig and I like it even more than my friends greensmoke. I still wish I hadn’t wasted the money on the first one, but I am really happy now to have a e cig that really works well, and I am glad I gave them another try.
