Because of the nature of this product, my usual evaluation format will not be used. This will just be a brief informational page with three photographs, four spectrographic analyses, and two videos (one quite large) on it.

For some reason, this product tastes kind of {vulgar term for caca}ty -- I don't know if they all taste this way or if I was simply unfortunate enough to get my hands on a bum one.

To use your brand spanken new (or corroded old) E-Cig, assemble it as directed on the back of the packaging materials (just screw the "filter" onto the "cigarrette", and remove that plastic thing off the end).

Put the filter-end in your mouth, and give it a few short "puffs", then you can "smoke" it as you might smoke a traditional cigarrette. A red "cherry" on the end brightens as you take a drag, then dims out to nothing when you stop.

There are no switches to fuss with or forget; the act of drawing air into it by sucking on the end triggers an air movement-sensitive momentary switch inside. This activates the unit only while you are taking a drag and automatically deactivates it when you stop sucking.

Each Advantage E-Cigerette 2.0 lasts approx. 500 puffs, then you throw it in the garbage can -- yes, this is the disposable version. Smart Choice Technology™ makes a rechargeable version as well, so you need only discard the "filter" portion (this is the part that contains the nicotine) every now and again.

Video on YourTube showing that "smoke" is actually produced (though it is not real smoke); showing that the Advantage E-Cigerette 2.0 really does work.

Note the package of Marlboro 100 cigs in my pocket. :O

This E-Cig was purchased on the Smart Choice Technology™ website on 06-20-11 after receiving "snail mail" from them promoting the product. The product itself was free; I needed only pay $3.95 for shipping & handling.
