Awwww, thanks! He has done this all on his own because he wants to be healthy. As you know, no one can make you quit smoking, unless you want to do it yourself. I think it was affecting my health, also. I have allergies and it sure didn't do them any good when he wreaked with the smell of smoke. I couldn't go outside with him and enjoy the fresh air without behind upwind from him. It has all changed now! We both are enjoying life more. He has even told me how he can't stand to be around smoke anymore.

Love the part where he "smells better, too!"

Just had a good look at the US Intellicig website - the disposable ones certainly aren't on there yet - which is a shame....they're quite new here, so I guess it'll take a while

Brilliant idea to use Beecee's e-liquid website - I occasionally buy from a different website here (it's SO cheap, about $3 per 10ml bottle) - but there was no point pointing you in their direction, as they don't ship overseas aaargh! Sally x

As far as the difficulty of using the e-cigs, it doesn't take but a couple of days to get comfortable with it. My husband picked up on it really quick. Also, there are others on this thread that are more than glad to help with questions. I have PMd Sally (Harrysmum) so many times with questions because she is so familiar with the Intellicig brand. I'm going to venture out in the future and order e-liquid from a site that Beecee has suggested.

The starter kit comes with 35 pre-filled cartridges which helped my husband until he got the hang of it all. It was suggested that I order two starter kits and I'm glad I did. My husband only let the batteries die once on both of them and he has never made that mistake again. It is second nature to him now. He can do it with his eyes closed! lol

Here is the link to the U.S. website. Good luck. If you don't mind, let us know how you are doing.

intellicig-USA.com Buy Intellicig EVO Electronic Cigarette by intellicig, The intelligent e-smoking e-cig alternative.
Did you purchase 2 of the evolution starter kits $89.00 is that correct. Why do you need all those attery chargers. can you reuse them or do you have to keep purchasing them. Do you reuse the cartridges? Sol when I go to purchase again will I just need to purchase the liquid. Im sorry for all the questions I just dont know what Im doing

I ordered one Evo Classic starter kit for $99.00....the very last one. My husband uses the car battery charger in his van while he is at work. When he comes home, he plugs the home battery charger in and re-charges one inside the house. He has not used the USB charger yet and probably never will. It says you can also charge them from your laptop or desktop.

When I ordered his kit, I also ordered the 2 different types of e-liquids that are on the site (Eco pure e-liquid & RIZe e-juice). The 30 cartridges come pre-filled. I just didn't want him to run out so I ordered more.

Yes, he re-uses the cartridges. Never throw them away. They can be used over and over. You just top it off with 2 or 3 drops when it runs out. I would have to say that if it were me, I would use the pre-filled cartridges for convenience if going out somewhere.

My husband tried another one first, don't remember the brand, but wasn't real happy with the battery life. He now uses Electronic Cigarettes | E Cigarette | V2 Cigs and has been very happy with them. They have pre-filled cartridges, which he buys initially, and then you can refill with drops a few times each. They have also sent him free replacement batteries and such when there's a problem.

Default Update on husband

I just wanted to spread the good news! My husband has only had 2 real cigarettes since beginning the Intellicig and that was at the beginning. He asked me to order a lower nicotine e-liquid as he is trying to cut down. We received the new e-liquid yesterday. I am so proud of him. Keep him in your prayers that he will have success in kicking the habit one day.

Wonderful news on your DH doing so well! Seems to me he is doing it right in lowering the nicotine gradually until he no longer will miss it. I pray one day he will be totally free of it.

Default Intellicig changes

I have attached a copy of an email from Intellicig's Customer Service explaining a change to their e-cig. I was never sent a notice like the email stated. I ordered a batch of their "new" cartomizers. They say there is no difference, but they definitely DO have an odor. It's not an unpleasant odor, but I would just prefer to not have to smell anything when my husband uses the e-cig. It sort of smells like a sweet, burned coffee smell. Also, the color of the cartomizer is no longer a realistic brown color. It is more of an orange color. The most disturbing thing about the new "prefilled" cartomizers is that my husband said there is definitely a difference in the taste/flavor. He is still using them and will continue to use them because he has had such great success.

If anyone else is using the Intellicig in the USA, have you noticed a difference?

Here is the email I was sent:

"A couple of months ago, we sent an email to all our newsletter subscribers informing of the discontinuation of the atomizer. Basically, the "atomizer" now has patent and no USA e-cig company is allowed to sell them. You won't be able to find an atomizer for sale in the USA.

Therefore, the cartomizer is the only option. The cartomizer is a cartridge with an atomizer inside which can't be removed but can be refilled with e-liquid just like the cartridges.. They are a little more expensive, but last 5x longer. Our cartomizers fit our batteries so everything is compatible.

To better understand how to fill one up, I suggest looking at this YouTube video below."

***If you want to see the video, let me know and I can send the link to you.

It drives me nuts when they go and 'fix something that aint broke' aaargh! It always happens doesn't it - 'new and improved' with food and everything - it's never as good as it was

Is your husband still able to top up with the original e-liquid? Sally x

Yes, he is able to top it up with the e-liquid. In fact, he did it just a few minutes ago! He is doing it the hard way, though. He is dipping the cartridge into a pool of liquid!! He's getting it on his fingers, too!!

I am going to show him a video from Intellicig that shows how to do top it off. He just thinks he is so smart that he doesn't need to watch it!

I just received an email today from Dr. Debra, PetPlace.com

Here is a link about toxicity of nicotine in dogs from e-cigs. Thought you might be interested.
