SkyCig Review. An Alternative To Smoking?

Posted on by

Our writer, Mark, has been trying to quit smoking for a few years now, so we passed on Skycig to him and waited for the results. Here is what he said:

“I have been trying to quit smoking but have found it really hard. I liked how Skycig looks. The packaging if really stylish and the e-cigarette looks like a proper cigarette. So thumbs up for presentation.

The Skycig has different flavours and I am not a fan of them all, but there is plenty of selection and apart from the cherry one I like them. At first the e-cigarette is a little strange. It is like a cigarette but not. After a while I find something amazing happening though: I really cut down the amount of real cigarettes I smoke. I have not quit completely yet but I smoke Skycig instead. I can recommend it and will definitely keep using it.”

Many smokers yearn for a product which allows them to enjoy the physical act of smoking, without the obvious health implications (or unsocial outdoor restrictions!) associated with smoking traditional tobacco. The UK’s leading provider of e-cigarettes – SKYCIG – has the answer to this particular smokers’ daily dilemma, with the SKYCIG Freedom Pack. It provides customers with the most realistic smoking experience available, and is designed to be enjoyed virtually anywhere you see a ‘no smoking’ sign!

Designed to simulate the act of smoking tobacco, a SKYCIG e-cigarette contains just a small dose of nicotine, delivered in the form of water vapour, allowing you to enjoy the act of smoking, without the 4,000 harmful chemicals found in traditional cigarettes – making it an indispensable tool in the pathway to quitting!

Now with ‘push-to-charge’ technology, resulting in a longer lasting battery, the Freedom Pack conveniently allows customers to charge their e-cig on the move, without the complicated charging process of old.

With a selection of seven unique and great tasting flavours– Classic Tobacco, Tobacco Gold, Menthol, Vanilla, Cherry, Cinnamon, Crown Tobacco – and available in three varying strengths – Bold, Regular and Light – SKYCIG is a product which guarantees satisfaction, without compromising on taste or the user’s enjoyment of the product and experience.

With a cutting-edge and user friendly design, intended to mimic the look and appearance of a traditional cigarette, you can be sure to enjoy the product in style, knowing that it won’t stain your nails or teeth, or leave your clothes smelling like an ashtray!

SKYCIG costs up to 75 per cent less than traditional cigarettes.

Smokers & Smoking: The Next Generation?

Posted on by

When the ban on smoking in enclosed public places came into force in July 2007, England joined the rest of the UK in banishing smokers to wretched huddles outside offices, pubs and restaurants.

Tobacco advertising had already been prohibited in 2005 –thereby relegating the famous Hamlet cigar ads to YouTube, and now, six years later, the anti-smoking lobby is beginning to make noises about the clouds of smoke drifting around the forlorn groups gathered in doorways throughout Britain.

As the smokers’ world grows ever smaller, a Birmingham company believe they have the answer. E-Lites electronic cigarettes hope to revolutionise smoking and bring the smoker literally back in from the cold.

E-Lites say their cigarettes contain no burning paper, no tobacco, no tar and no cancer-causing carcinogens. Instead, the E-Lite contains a nicotine cartridge, coloured like an ordinary cigarette filter, an atomizer that heats water to give a smoke-like vapour and a rechargeable battery. And just to be on the safe side, the business end glows with a green LED to avoid any confusion with the real thing.

Puffing on their new E-Lite at their display kiosk in Euston, Sales Representative Dan Andrei said: “They’re cheaper than normal cigarettes – about 75% cheaper – and unrestricted, which means you get the freedom to smoke anywhere you want.

“There’s no smell and no smoke, so no passive smoking and they can be ordered online or bought from kiosks like this one.”

E-Lites launched their newest incarnation of their electronic cigarette, the G9, this week and are hoping for big things.

“We only launched two days ago,” said fellow Sales Representative, Reese Barnard. “Obviously, It’s all about getting people to try it. It’s something totally new and totally different so smokers need to try it before they decide to buy.

“The response has been pretty good so far.”

Since the 2011 Budget, a pack of 20 cigarettes costs an average of £7. In comparison, E-Lite nicotine cartridges last for roughly the equivalent of 12 cigarettes. With E-Lites retailing at £40 for 200 and refill cartridges at £8 for £80, smokers could make a considerable saving, both in their pocket and in their health.

With World No Tobacco Day just gone, the lively hubbub around their Euston stall on a Thursday lunchtime suggested E-Lites have enough going for them to garner initial interest. Whether the company has factored in, and can conquer, the ‘cool’ factor and peer pressure remains to be seen.
