How to decide which E-Cigarette is best for you

How do you know which electronic cigarette will work best for you? If you are new to vaping, it can be difficult to decide, as they are designed for new users and basically come down to personal preference.

Advantages of E-Cigarette Starter Kits

E-Cigarettestarter kits and E-cigarette disposables have many things in common, as well as their separate perts. Kits offer the benefits of being reusable, cost effective. People like the fact that the e-liquids come in a large array of flavors to choose from. They are also more environmentally friendly, as they produce very little waste.

There are several aspects to e-cigarette starter kits that make them seem less appealing, like the risks of costs.

For instance, some smokers are reluctant to purchase starter kits because they are afraid they may not like the products. Most starter kits range in price from $40 to $200, and many don’t like the idea of investing their money on a blind purchase.

On the positive side however customers can test the e-cigarrette at the store at no cost. We use disposable covers that slide over the mouth piece and is disposed of later.

And, while the initial cost may cause some to balk, the savings from e-cigarettes compared to traditional cigarettes is dramatic, and most smokers are quite happy at how much they begin to save after the first month.

Advantages of Disposable E-Cigarettes

These are the most common, easy to find alternative cigarettes. E-Cigarette disposables are excellent for their easiness, and many users start off with them because they are readily available at the Benningtons. They are single-piece units, made immediate use and then discarded. Each lasting about the two packs of traditional cigarettes and requiring no set up, charging, change of cartridges, or maintenance.

They are perfect for beginners because they are simple, easy to use, and do not require the user to spend a large chunk of money right from the start.

It gives you the experience of e-smoking without commitment.

Disposables are also perfect for people who have little time for charging batteries, as well as those who are traveling. They need nothing more than being opened from their packaging to be used!

While only you will know your personal preferences and tastes, e-cigarette kits and disposables offer amazing benefits both. Choosing one style over the other may work for you, but in the end, most e-smokers tend to use both because of their individual positive aspects. Weigh your options, experiment, and if all else still seems confusing, don’t hesitate to contact your local tobacconist and ask for guidance!

Thoughts and Studies On Vaping

This an article supporting American made products, related to “Vaping”. The new

Hobby that enables smokers to indulge the intake of nicotine and inhaling and exhaling, which calms those in stress.

Nowadays it is important to support American made products. Of the E-Liquid available some are made in China, some in India and some Korea. And the E-Liquid for Total Vapor is made in the US. It contains propylene glycol USP Kosher grade glycerin USP Kosher grade, nicotine ( naturally derived from tobacco ), natural and artificial flavoring. All flavoring ingredients are approved for use in a regulation of the Food and Drug Administration or listed as being generally recognized as safe on a reliable industry list. They are not a Smoking cessation product.

When you use an E-Cigarette you do not produce Carbon Monoxide (from burning paper). Which is what dulls brain function and slows people down.

Total Vapor is made from rigorous standard of technology. Made from rigorous standards of quality control. Its E-Liquid can be found in 10 different flavors. They are being accepted in restaurants, bars, clubs and even airplanes. There are places that have “Vaping Allowed” signs. There are “Vaping” Bars popping up. 

One amazing thing about vaping is; those who have transitioned from regular cigarettes have found a new pleasure. Which does not include coughing, being short of breath, clothes smelling bad as well as their breath! 

Vaping is intended for the adult smoker who wishes to continue enjoying their nicotine habit at a lower risk. Vaping utilizes a propylene Glycol or vegetable Glycerin, an organic compound, miscible water. Electronic cigarettes look and can taste like a real cigarette. It will not smell like an ashtray and does not produce CO2. A bottle of E-liquid costs a fraction of what a carton costs today. It doesn’t contain any of the 350 additives, preservatives, salt-peter and arsenic... to mention a few. The E-Liquid contains a percentage of nicotine (there are about 4 or 5 different grades; from 0% nicotine to 24%).

 

And nothing else, no other additive, no other preservative. Dr.Igor Burstyn, medical doctor and PH.D., of Drexel University School of Public Health in England, reviewed all of the available chemistry on e-cigarette vapor and liquid,

and found that the levels reported – even in those studies that were hyped as showing there is a danger – are at a level which would never cause concern. Could never cause concern.

A paragraph from this paper “……..The only expert review of all of the studies found that there was no risk from the chemicals to vapers, let alone bystanders. This took into consideration the studies that you are referring to [note: assuming this is being used as a rebuttal to some claim of chemical hazards]. Indeed, even the results of the studies that have been used to generate alarm represented levels of chemicals that were too low to be of concern.”

As brands go, Total Vapor has proven that it is a well balance technology. Made from rigorous standard of technology. Made from rigorous standards of quality control. It is finding its place in society. They are being accepted in restaurants, bars, clubs and even airplanes. There are places that have “vaping allowed” signs.

Its what dulls brain function and slows people down.

Try Electronic cigarettes. You have a larger choice of flavors, your choice of nicotine strength and you are more alert.

Come Meet Collin Rigsby

For many of you a pipe is not just a smoking instrument, but a gateway to the past. Maybe your father or a favorite uncle was a pipe smoker and you can still smell his tobacco when you think back with fond memories.




I also have a great passion for pipes; The craftsmanship, the tobacco and the memories. A great pipe will not only allow you to relive those memories again for years to come, but create new ones. Modern pipe design has also given way to incredible new designs, that still provide fantastic enjoyment. A great pipe feels good in the hand, has an open draw and allows the flavor of your favorite blend to take over your smoking experience. These are just a few of the ideals that drive my work.


Nature provides the pipe maker beautiful briar to work with. It is my pleasure to take this material and create wonderful smoking, feeling and looking pipes. My greatest hope is that you find your next “old friend” within my collection.

First and foremost, every pipe I make must be crafted to smoke well, period. Briar acquired from master cutters in Italy and high quality ebonite and cumberland rod stock are the basics. Proven materials that last and provide quality from the beginning. The engineering must be on target - wide open drafts, chamber shapes and sizes fit to the shape of the pipe and comfortable mouthpieces and just a few of the details covered when designing and creating the pipes.

On occasion, a nice exotic wood ring stem decoration or a silver cap on a military mount accent the pieces. Grain is accented with color and wax leaving a beauty to behold. Sometimes hand carved rustication is in order, to give a rugged yet friendly feel and look to the pipes. Blasted pipes exhibit the natural beauty of the ring grain in relief - a look and feel

preferred by many pipe enthusiasts.



 These are words directly from Collins Page. He is proud and happy with the hobby/work he has chosen.... There isn't a better way to live....

So come and meet him!

Good times....

Kevin spoke of how pipe smoking is developing a new, younger following. Starting in college, the new pipe smokers have been slowly flocking to Benningtons within the last 3 or 4 years. As we speak to them, we see that they are inspired by uncles, grandfathers or other relatives and friends.

Kevin spoke of how the magazine's public has increased steadily over the years and how it has been serving it's readers.

E-Cigarettes-The Total Vapor Experience

The electronic cigarette, also known as E-cigarette, personal vaporizer (or PV), has its earliest paten in 1963, in the name of Herbert A Gilbert. It was patented as “a smoke-less 

non-tobacco cigarette” that involved replacing burning tobacco in paper with heated, moist flavored (not always tobacco flavor) vapor. This particular device heated the nicotine solution and produced steam. 1n 1967 , Gilbert was approached by several companies, but it was never manufactured.

Today, 2013 people are dropping the tobacco and paper cigarette and picking up the electronic cigarette by the hundreds. Today’s E-Cigarette has been developed in China. The one I most hear about is the EGO. The hardware come from China and the E-Liquid is developed in the US. The Vapor or the Total Vapor consists of the E-Liquid, an Atomizer, a battery, charger and a case.

The E-Liquid can be found in different flavors and nicotine strengths; 24mg, 16mg 11mg, 6mg, and 0mg. Each bottle comes in 10ml which, is equal to a carton of cigarettes. A 10ml bottle can be purchased for $10. I must mention that a pack of cigarettes today is somewhere around $7.

The E-Cigarette is becoming so strong that people are forming forums, and clubs with thousands of people. They call what they do “vaping”. They do it in airports, in the work place, on the airplane,  in stadiums, etc. It does not produce any tobacco odor. The nicotine is transmitted via the vapor that enters the lungs, and no, there is no tar because there is no tobacco being burned.

For those who have made the switch there is a sense of relief, and a search for the perfect vaping, the closest possible to the experience with a cigarette. The EGO Total Vapor is the closest one can get to a true tobacco and paper cigarette experience. But without the CO2, the tar and the smell or the Dog breath!

The electronic cigarette makes total sence. The 21st century is a time where we are more concerned with how much harm we mas cause others and ultimately ourselves. 

This is what I heard... It so good that for once we can do something without harming others....
