I think it should probably be taken as a given that I am biased writing this post. However, I have yet to taste a disposable electronic cigarette that I have found personally satisfying. I’ve tried several. When Tescos brought out the 10 Motives electronic cigarette, I thought I’d try one. I bought one, and headed [...]

My godmother, Helen, was a heavy smoker. She fell on hard times after her husband, who she loved dearly, died far too young. Smoking was partly a crutch, I think, but also something she loved. Always short of money, she made sacrifices to continue smoking, and switched to rolling tobacco. Terribly unhappy, she always said [...]

By Paul Bergen from tobaccoharmreduction.org. What news! When it comes to matters of nicotine, its rare that a government report not only exhibits common sense but gets as far as being reported in two major newspapers without some prohibitionary lunatics weaseling themselves into the mix.

Vapers around the world were taken by surprise when a government finally got behind electronic cigarettes, with BK Ainsworth from CASAA stating: “We were wowed when we saw it. after over 3 years of every government agency all of the world condemning them, we almost passed out.” Happily, for UK vapers, that government was the [...]

According to scientists we have spoken to, e-cigarettes are 99% safer than tobacco cigarettes. The danger in vaping is equivalent to the danger of drinking a cup of coffee, and you’ll find more carcinogens in peanut butter than you will in e-juice. Yet many smokers have yet to switch. Some still haven’t heard about the [...]

Smokles, the Tobacco Harm Reduction blog run by scientists and experts in THR, have claimed that the NICE consulation into electronic cigarettes is “probably a charade”. The comments followed the rejection of advice from tobacco harm reduction experts on the basis they were insufficiently “English”. The Tobacco Harm Reduction Blog attacks the consultation as ignoring [...]

Who’s unstoppable? Is it the EU anti-smoking movement, which also wants to ban legal alternatives to far more dangerous cigarettes? Or is it the vaping community, which is using the EU funded facebook page to – loudly – share their story and demand their right to vape. And which is also helpfully suggesting some improvements [...]

The Welsh National Opera has been using our electronic cigarette again, this time in a performance of Cosi fan tutte. The Welsh National Opera set Mozart’s tale of seduction in the Welsh seaside in the 1950′s. The picture above and below shows Gary Griffiths, who plays officer Guglielmo, vaping a HALO electronic cigarette during the performance. [...]
