NuvoCig is a high-end electronic cigarette company that offers revolutionary vaping products and accessories. They have a huge selection of flavors of their unique cartomizers that are each equivalent to two packs of traditional cigarettes, and they’re available in 5 nicotine levels (super high, high, medium, light, and non-nicotine). They also supply products like e-cigars and e-hookahs. On their website they have a list of benefits of electronic cigarettes vs. traditional cigarettes, which I’ve summarized here:

Seven Reasons that e-Cigs Are Better than Traditional Cigarettes1. E-cigs produce an odorless vapor

instead of smoke – meaning both you and those around you aren’t subjecting your lungs to cigarette smoke.

2. Since there’s no secondhand smoke, e-cigs are usually allowed in most places where smoking traditional cigarettes is banned. (Always ask first, though!)

3. After the initial start-up cost, e-cigs are significantly less expensive than traditional cigarettes (approximately 1/3 of the cost, depending on cigarette prices where you live).

4. E-cigs pose NO fire risk – there’s no risk of losing your home (or your life!) in a house fire if you fall asleep with an e-cig in your hand.

5. Since e-cigs aren’t tobacco, you don’t get “ashtray mouth” from them, nor do you get the yellowing of your teeth like you do with traditional cigarettes.

6. E-cigs won’t cause your clothing, hair, and home to smell like cigarette smoke.7. E-cigs allow you to choose the nicotine level you want (from super high all the way

down to no nicotine at all), meaning you can control how much nicotine you’re putting into your system.

NuvoCig sent me one of their e-cig kits to review, along with a selection of their flavored cartomizers. (For those unfamiliar with e-cig terminology, the cartomizer is the disposable cartridge that contains the flavor and/or nicotine that attaches to the e-cig

base. They’re similar to an atomizer but hold more e-liquid and therefore last longer). I picked five flavors to try: Cherry, Vanilla, Grape, Strawberry, and Traditional Tobacco.

The NuvoCig kit I received contained two batteries (the base part that you screw the cartomizer into, which are available in either silver or white), a USB charger, a wall adapter for the wall charger, five cartomizers, and a user guide, all packaged inside a sturdy box with a magnetic closure on the flap.

Even if you’ve never used e-cigs before, it’s pretty simple to figure out. To charge the battery, you just screw it into the USB charger and then plug in the USB (you can also plug it into a USB port, you don’t have the use the wall adapter). Once it’s charged up, you unscrew it from the USB and attach a cartomizer and you’re ready to go! As you inhale from the end of the cartomizer, the tip of the battery lights up – and there are even multiple choices for what color you’d like the tip to be (blue, green, orange, pink, or red).

The size of the NuvoCig e-cig is very similar to that of a regular cigarette (just a little bit longer), and I was quite impressed with the flavors that NuvoCig offers. I’d tried a couple of other brands of e-cigs in the past, and they were just “okay.” NuvoCig’s cartomizers provide a nice hit of flavor along with the nicotine (if you choose to even have nicotine included). The amount of “pull” needed is minimal, but even if you pull hard on it you don’t get an overwhelming amount of vapor. Of the five flavors I received, I liked the Cherry the best, closely followed by the Vanilla. (Here’s hoping they introduce a Cherry-Vanilla blend soon!)

NuvoCig also sent me their Ultimate Battery to test out. It uses the same cartomizers as the regular batteries, but has a different charger and is used slightly differently. The cartomizer screws into the battery, but then there’s an extra piece that goes over that (I think to both help secure the cartomizer in place and to streamline the assembled e-cig). This one is also larger, both in length and diameter, than the standard assembled e-cig. And instead of just pulling on the cartomizer, you press down a button on the battery first. You can also “lock” this battery – you push the button five times to lock it, and then repeat to unlock it. You get a bigger hit of vapor from the ultimate battery – too much so, if you’re not careful. The battery lasts about twice as long, but it does go through the e-liquid inside the cartomizer faster, since you’re getting more with each pull.

If you’re planning on switching over completely to e-cigs, there is a bit of an adjustment period. Traditional cigarettes don’t just have nicotine in them, as you probably know – including chemicals to help release the nicotine into your brain faster, to open up your receptors, and to enhance and prolong the effects of the nicotine. For the first couple of weeks, I continued to smoke regular cigarettes in addition to my NuvoCig. But then an interesting thing happened – when a craving would hit, I realized that I preferred the NuvoCig over my regular cigarettes. They don’t hurt my throat or lungs the way cigarettes can, and the flavors are great. They also don’t dry out my mouth and make me thirsty like regular cigarettes. AND I can choose to just take a puff or two and then put it down, I don’t have to “smoke” an entire cigarette. Just enough for a little dash of nicotine to the brain, plus getting that physical action that’s so ingrained in my behavior completed.

While NuvoCig is NOT classified as a smoking cessation device, the five different levels of nicotine available in the cartomizer means that you can slowly step down, all the way to the nicotine-free cartomizers, if you choose to do so. At that point you’re basically getting flavored water vapor! I know for me, a big part of the cigarette addiction is mental rather than physical. It’s the act of smoking, the hand-to-mouth movement, the holding of a cigarette between my fingers, just the physical actions of smoking. That part of smoking is much harder for me to give up than the nicotine – just the physical action of smoking, which has become a deeply ingrained habit that’s VERY difficult to break. That’s why I never found patches or gum particularly effective as a stop-smoking solution, because it provided the nicotine but not the physical

habits. With the NuvoCig, I get both, without all the other junk that’s in regular cigarettes. And if I want to try quitting, I can step down the nicotine level, or even just go cold turkey and get the no-nicotine cartomizers, since I’d still have the habitual actions part of smoking available to me.

I also took a closer look at the cost comparison between NuvoCig and traditional cigarettes. The information is available on the NuvoCig website, but the basic gist is that if you’re paying $7 a pack for cigarettes (which is pretty standard here in Michigan), ten packs of cigarettes will cost you about $70. A five-pack of NuvoCig cartomizers, which is equivalent to ten packs of cigarettes, sells for $19.99. (And the more cartomizers you buy at a time, the lower the price goes, up to 25% off if you buy five or more). So after the initial start-up costs (buying the batteries, chargers, carrying cases, etc.), you’re looking at paying just a third of the price!

There are a lot of different options for how to set up your NuvoCig starter kit, so it’s difficult to share the pricing – it all depends on the specifics of what you want included in your kit. The NuvoCig Longer Lasting USB Kit is priced at just $24.99 and includes everything you need to get started – one battery, 2 cartomizers (tobacco or menthol flavored), and 1 USB charger. There are more kits with expanded flavor choices, charger options, battery options, etc. available in other kits.

to get a loved one to make the switch, NuvoCig sells what they call the Silver Single. The Silver Single ($14.99) is the standard rechargeable NuvoCig battery (just like the ones I received) with a single cartomizer. You (or your loved one) can try it out for a day or two (one cartomizer is equivalent to about two packs of cigarettes), and if you like it, then you can go back and buy a charger so you can keep using it.

I will definitely be continuing to use my NuvoCig. I prefer the standard battery with the smaller hit (the one that’s similar in size to a regular cigarette), but my husband likes the ultimate battery (with a bigger hit and a larger size, closer to a cigar than a cigarette), so that works out perfectly for us. I don’t know if I’ll ever completely give up traditional cigarettes, but I’d be satisfied if I could cut it down to one or two a day and then use my NuvoCig the rest of the time.

NuvoCig also sells e-Hookahs, e-Cigars, e-Pipes, and e-Liquids in addition to their e-Cigs and e-Cig accessories. Check ’em out on their website and on Facebook, Twitter, Google+, and LinkedIn!
