Smoke Relief E-Cigarette Review!!

I have smoked cigarettes for about 20 years. I know it's a horrible habit, disgusting, unhealthy, etc. I know, I know. I don't need a lecture!!

So when the opportunity came along to review an Electronic Cigarette from Smoke Relief I jumped at the chance. 

"Electronic cigarettes are the smart alternative to traditional tobacco cigarettes. And you can use them legally indoors. You get the same cigarette taste and nicotine boost, but the "smoke" generated is completely harmless. Each electronic cigarette consists of a battery, an atomiser and a cartridge containing vegetable glycerine, nicotine and flavouring.When you draw on an e cigarette the experience is just like a traditional cigarette. You taste the tobacco 'smoke-like' vapour that is created and your body receives the nicotine"

I was lucky enough to be sent the Deluxe Rechargeable eCigarette Kit which when it arrived I was so excited!! I have been trying to cut down and quit normal cigarettes for years but have had no success.

I was keen to get the box open and give it a try. In the starter kit you get 

- A Deluxe Smoke Relief Charger Box in the picture to the left...
- 2 x Lithium-ion cigarette batteries
- USB cable and charger
- 5 x 18mg tobacco cartridges - equivalent to 100 cigarettes
- 5 x cartridges of your chosen flavour and strength - equivalent to 100 cigarettes 

All of this for £29.97!! Which when you think about it. You get the equivalent of 200 cigarettes which could quite easily cost you over £60!!

So on Tuesday the 2nd of April at about 2pm I had my last proper cigarette and have used this kit since. I've had moments when I have wanted a normal cigarette but I think that was more out of habit rather then not getting enough nicotine....I used to go outside to smoke so was in the habit of getting up to smoke. Now I don't have to. 

The case which is also the charger is a little larger than a cigarette packet and it looks very stylish and can fit quite easily in my bag or pocket the only negative I have with it is that the lid does not close when the e-cigarette is assembled. The e-cigarette it's self is larger and heavier than a normal cigarette but I like it. I love the extra effect of the end lighting when you inhale. At least you can see that it is working and when the end flashes the battery needed charging!!

I'm not going to lie and say using an e-cigarette is exactly the same as smoking a normal cigarette. The taste is similar and I'd say it's as close as you can get. It is a lot better for you and cheaper too. 

I think from now on I will be using these!! There are other flavors too as well as normal tobacco..There is Menthol, Peach, Vanilla, Apple, Cherry, and Cappuccino flavours I have tried the Cherry one and it's lovely!! Do you know the cold sweets 'Tunes' they taste just like that!!. 

If you are wanting to stop smoking normal cigarettes I can reccomend these Electronic Cigarettes....Apart from them being a lot cheaper than cigarettes they don't smell, there is no teeth discolouration or nicotine-stained fingers and you can use them anywhere. This has changed my life. I'm actually saving money and feeling better for using the Smoke Relief E-Cigarette!!
 
Smoke Relief electronic cigarettes are a harm-free alternative to old-style tobacco cigarettes for existing smokers. They are not a particularly good way to give up smoking because you are still addicted to the nicotine and you are still getting the full smoking experience. If you want to give up smoking you are best advised to just stop smoking or use a support group like the NHS Smokefree

I was sent this free of charge for my honest review....All thoughts and opinions are my own!!

  2. I hope you manage to stay with the e-cigs!

    My partner had smoked for over 20 years, he tried the e-cigs while we were on holiday and now he literally can't stomach a normal cigarette! He says the smell makes him feel sick!
    He has been smoking the e-cigs for about 2 years now
