V2 Cigs Review Of The Ultimate Starter Kit
A good friend of mine has been getting electronic cigarettes since they first came out. He has gotten quite a few different brands (including; Green Smoke, White Cloud, Blu, South Beach Smoke, and Lucy). Luckily for me, he let me try them all before I purchased one for myself. After testing them all out I first narrowed it down to my top three choices (White Cloud, Green Smoke, & the V2 e-cigarette) and from there between price and features offered I decided to get the V2 e-cigarette.
The first thing I noticed about the original V2 Cigs electronic cigarette that I borrowed was that it had a button on the side of the battery, unlike any of the others I had seen. At first I thought it was a bad idea, I didn’t understand why anyone would want an electronic cigarette with a button to ignite the vapor when automatic ones are commonly available, but after using it for a little while I realized the reason of it is that if you are used to smoking real cigarettes that generally stay lit, you might find it annoying to use an automatic e-cigarette because there is always a delay from when you start inhaling to when the vapor starts getting cooked, (with all brands), making you want to puff on it twice every time, but with the use of the button on the V2 e-cigarette brand, you can get a nice thick drag from start to finish, by pressing it a moment in advance of taking a drag. You will find that it is already producing vapor as you begin to puff. This feature was actually one of the reasons I decided to go with the V2 e-cigarette instead of the others. When I ordered my kit it came with three different customizable batteries, I decided to get two batteries with the button (both black), and one without (white), all with red tips.
Multiple Options For V2 Cigs
I also like that when ordering you can choose different battery lengths some of which have different options for the led colors. I personally don’t care for the 120mm battery, even if it lasts for 300 puffs it is still long enough and heavy enough that it feels cumbersome to me. (Also, be warned: the 120mm battery does not fit in the carrying case) The shortest battery feels the most natural to me, as I am an ex smoker and I never smoked 100s. I ordered two short batteries and one standard size with my kit, and that seems to work out well for me. I also got the portable charger (its cool, it looks like a little cigarette tin) which is a nice feature not offered by a lot of other brands. Having that allows me to use the shorter e-cigarettes and not have to worry about them running out of energy while I’m out.
Possibly the most convincing thing of all about the V2 e-cigarette model is that out of all the e-cigarettes I tried it seemed to have some of the thickest, most consistent, and best tasting vapor produced. The next two in line for a consistent thick vapor are the White Cloud and the Green Smoke e-cigarettes, neither of which offer a portable charger or the button battery option that I was originally skeptical of, but began to prefer after using it. (I would suggest if you order a kit with more than one battery option, you try it out). Also the V2 e-cigarette allows for more options all around and is priced a bit cheaper than White Cloud e-cigarette (comparable with Green Smoke e-cigarette). Also, the small black batteries with the colored “filters”, in the sleek black caring case, has a nice aesthetic to it.
I never really smoked flavored cigarettes as a smoker, but some of their vapor flavors are excellent, like the cherry, it feels like smoking but leaves a slight candied taste that is really pretty good. The other flavors, vanilla, chocolate, coffee, are good as well, and the cowboy and congress flavors ( modeled after Marlboro reds, and parliaments, I think) taste and give a throat kick more akin to a real cigarette than most other brands I have tried.
Everything considered, the different battery and flavor options, the quality and consistency of the vapor produced, and the relatively cheap price for the quality of the product make the V2 e-cigarette my first pick of all the e-cigarettes. I got my kit a couple weeks ago and I have been quite happy with it. Best part is, I was smoking a coffee flavored cartridge off my short black battery with the button (my favorite), while I wrote this, in my house, that I am not allowed to smoke in because I rent, with the windows up, cause its cold outside!
Thanks for reading my V2 Cigs review! I hope you found it helpful.

I am a 25 year somker, one that “loves” to smoke. I have endured many health (serve pain) from a spinal injury that has left me in very bad shape for life. These issues started within the last ten years. The pain that I endure is horrible and the medications I must take to help with the pain actually made me smoke much more than normal. I developed a wheezing sound first, then a cough, then shortness of breath. I also had a very strange pain in my left lyphnoid for quite some time. Last year 2010 I became sick, and everytime I got a cold I got broncitis, and finally pneumonia. I was diagnoised on top of all these other health issues with COPD and the first stages of enphazema..Twice last year I got pneumonia and was scared to death because a “mass” was found on my exray. I tried I really did to stop. I purchased at least three different brands of the “E” cig online and wasnt satified at all. I spent a ton of money and it was like flusing it right down the toilet,
One day I was in the mall and saw a cart selling the V2 Ecig. My first thought was, another “JUNK” ecig….well they werent getting me for the fourth time thats for sure!.
I walked by and a man asked me if I smoked. I said, I have already wasted enough money on these Ecig’s, they dont work “no thankyou. He asked me to come over and he explained he too, did the same. He smoked for 27 years, and went through 4 brands before finding this one, which he loves. I tried the “COFFEE” flavor which I didnt think at first I would like, as I do drink coffee but dont care much for Flavors. Low and behold I truly loved it. As for the V2 I sat on the chair and he said “while we talk and you tell me your experience with Ecigs,take this one and just smoke it while we talk”. I did, and I dont work, am not being paid, do not know the corporate office in anyway, nor do I know the owner of V2 ecig. I am a simple disabiled woman that wants the world to know. I have been a 25 year smoker who had purchased the V2 and the first week, I smoked the V2 and still had 2-5 cigs the first 3-4 days while smoking the ecig. As the weeks went on, I purchased the longer battery V2 which I highly recommend, and you can buy a kit that way and just subsitute the reg lower battery life V2s with the extended life V2 ecigs, they will allow you too. .Let me tell you all of the symtoms I had smoking regular cigs are gone….wheezing (gone), cough (gone), Broncitis (no more hacking and being sick) my tounge burned from regular cigs terribly, from the chemicals, and it doesnt anymore. I dont smoke regular cigs anymore. I am lowering myself now from 18mg to the lower versions of nicotine V2 offers, and soon will be done with all cigs for life. I would have never ever ever been able to do this alone. I have tried patches, gum, chantix, wellbutrin, and lozengers. I have tried every method to quit known to man. This is the real deal!!!! If you are a regular cig lover as I was, and can not come off of them, you have nothing to loose, but EVERYTHING TO GAIN BY TRYING THE V2.
They saved my life, i know that sounds silly but its 1000% the truth. Good luck, and dont watse money on any other Ecig brands. If you buy the V2 you will never need anything else……
Cheers!
i love v2 cigs there aint nothing better
The V2 was my first kit, and I’m very happy with it. The whole thing is easy to use and reasonably priced.
I have only tried the Reds, which are supposed to be Marlboro flavored. Eh, not so much. Doesn’t really taste like a cigarette. That’s not to say that it’s bad, though. The coffee flavor, however, is incredible. I liked it a LOT.
I would definitely purchase again if I had to. Very satisfying. I could get by without smoking again as long as I had these.
GREATEST thing ever! I love the V2 everything from its style to its performance and their flavors! I bought mine in stainless steel to me its so classy and I don’t think Ive seen it offered any where else at least as the same price as the other colors! For me with the V2 as soon as a got it I started using it and it was that simple to stop smoking normal cigs! Good luck hope you love your new V2!!!!!
In my opinion and experience V2 is exceptional. I have never had any shipping or quality issues and have placed numerous orders. I researched a lot of e-cigs before deciding on V2 and so far am happier than expected. All the flavors I have tried (red, sahara, menthol, and peppermint) have been great, and V2’s selection of accessories is second to none. My original starter kit arrived back in March of this year and since that time I have not had a cigarette. It is really cool to “feel” like I am still smoking but actually not ingesting all the noxious chemicals that smoke creates. I got 1 manual battery and 1 automatic in my starter kit and love both. I switch back and forth between the two. Their customer service is also very helpful seem to go the extra mile to satisfy. I would warn people that V2’s 18mg cartridges are pretty strong. I was a “Full Flavor” smoker and the 12mg suit me just fine. One of my favorite things about V2 is their on-line specials. They are always running deals.
LOVE the V2 for sure the BEST one out there.
It’s a Happy St. Patty’s Day, but not at V2cigs.com today. In trying to make their web-site even better – the whole thing crashed. I’m sure they have migraines. This is a GREAT company with fantastic support, so please know they will honor the St. Patty’s special on menthols even though it will be past the deadline. They have a NEW FLAVOR going out on March 20, except with the site being down, I’m sure it will be delayed. The new flavor is SAHARA which I’m sure will be like a Camel. I smoke the REDS (previously called Cowboys) which equate to a Marlboro. I happen to like the extra long battery and getting 300 drags before having to recharge. I was really addicted to regular smokes. Too much since I had lung cancer last June and am now minus one whole lung lobe. If I could quit ANYONE can! I love V2, all their products overall and their staff rocks.
Peace to all!
This is an update on my comment: V2cigs.com has gotten even better since March 2011. They have updated their site, so it user-friendly. I am sticking with the COWBOYS because they taste the most like a real cig. I didn’t care for the SAHARA, but you might. I would just try a 5-pack of them to start just in case. You CAN quit real cigarettes with these!
God Bless from Memphis
Congrats Janet! I am 18 an have been smoking cigs from when I was 9! I will be purchasing an ultimate kit from V2 very soon
god bless!
I did alot of research before deciding to go with V2 and found it to be the best company. It’s 2 piece design makes a tremendous difference. Lots of vapor and consistent from start to finish. With V2 I get everything I loved about smoking. I especially like that I can do it in my home, car , movie theater, dinner etc – There is no smell at all to this product!!
I am loving my V2 Cigs ~ the flavor I choose is so nice I need not try another, also I may add that originally I had orders these V2′s and I was eagerly waiting on the arrival and on the day of arrival, my brother passed suddenly and I was to say the least heartbroken and stressed, I thought at first this will be impossible for me to quit smoking today but I went ahead and throwed out my cigarettes and began the V2 smoking. It has be three weeks now and I do not forsee myself ever wanting another cigarette again. It is like a maricle for me to have quit at my most unhappy and streeful moment in life, the loss of a loved one.
God Speed
and Thank You,

I love the button feature! I got 2 batteries with the button feature, one short one long. I can get the best vapor drag when using the button. It is the thickest vapor using it like you say to hold for a few seconds then hit it. Works like a charm! This is a sweet e-cig!
