The State of E Cigarette Brands in 2014

Wow, 2014 has been quite the year for electronic cigarettes. This is the year that e cigs went completely mainstream. It’s almost impossible to go a day without seeing a news story about e cigarettes online or in the local news. Vapor stores are popping up like crazy all around the country and it’s now almost as common to see someone puffing on an e cig as a traditional cigarette!

This huge uptick in popularity is great in a lot of ways but it also has its drawbacks. It’s great to see so many people giving up an old way of dying for a new way of living by picking up their first e cigarette! However, it’s not fun to see the smear pieces on the local news slamming electronic cigarettes and demanding strict regulations. Regardless, I think it’s pretty obvious that electronic cigarettes are the way of the future. They are a freight train running at full speed and there is no stopping them now.

But e cigarette popularity is not the only thing that has escalated in 2014! We’ve also seen HUGE advancements in e cig technology. The new electronic cigarettes on the market today make the ones from the beginning of 2013 look archaic. Most companies have pumped out amazing e cigs that not only produce more vapor, taste better and last longer per battery charge, but are CHEAPER than they were a few years ago.

Basically what I’m trying to say is that now is the time to jump on the e cigarette bandwagon! Use our website to help find the brand that best fits your need! We recommend V2 Cigs for beginners because of their superior level of quality, but other great brands include Green Smoke, Bull Smoke, and SmokeStik. We are going to be adding more reviews soon, but you can ensure that these brands are highly recommended by me!

About the Electronic Cigarette Brands Guide

One thing that I value above all else is honesty. As a promise to both myself and my readers I’ve kept all of my reviews 100% honest, for better or for worse. I have never and will never review a product which I haven’t personally tried and spent a minimum of 2 respective battery cycles testing. I take the opinions of my readers very seriously and encourage anyone and everyone to contact me at my personal email address located on the ‘Contact’ page.

About Me

I had been smoking regular cigarettes for many years before making the switch to using electronic cigarettes. At my peak I smoked around two packs a day with no plans of quitting. I was content with my tobacco addiction until I realized that there was an alternative electronic cigarettes. I was apprehensive at first, but now I swear by them and recommend them to everyone I know. E cigs are the way of the future, and if you haven’t already made the switch you’re behind the curb! I now spend the majority of my time working, traveling, and trying new e cigs. I vow to review every electronic cigarette or e cig related product right here on this website all for the sake of giving e cigarette consumers a more informed opinion on which e cig is truly the best!

Top electronic cigarette brands

I will jump right in Here in my opinion is the Standout

The top pick from the rest. Why, because of the quality of the vape, which gives you a thick rich inhale, and this is what we want as a smoker. Plus, the flavor is really close to ‘the real thing» ie a tabacco cigarette.

Which Brands Have The Closest Taste to the Top Brands of Real Cigarettes ? Most people are searching for e cigs which are the closest in taste to their favorite real tobacco cigarette brand, so here are my recommendations to help you make that kind of choice

Because each person is so different I am therefore recommending you try them for yourself, as this should give you the best starting point for deciding, but here is what I think. Please note that disposables and rechargeables within the same brand do have some small subtle differences of taste.

Marlboro Red For that taste try out the V2 Red Flavor

Newport If that is your brand, try out South Beach Smoke Menthol

Winston and Camel Bull Smoke Tobacco Blends give the closest taste to the original cigarette

Here are some brief summaries of the key points for each brand in bullet form

V2 Cigs

• A really great overall product for quality and flavours with a vape hit on your throat that a real smoker will appreciate if you are looking for something that is real similarity to the real cigarette experience, V2 could well be your answer.
• There are lots of additional options like the mini tanks (EX Banks) which have very slim portable charging cases and look great, they also have good new batteries (EX batteries), some great color options and you can even customise a starter kit if you want.
• These also have many options for great savings with coupon codes via the referral incentives and also with the refill liquid option.

You can visit the website at

South Beach Smoke Brand

• A great all round quality e cig product. It has a satisfying flavour range and has really cool looking e cig tips.
• Many consumer review sites highly rate them.
• The charging case looks pretty cool with some LED lights for all you design/ tech freaks, and it also has an excellent battery life!

Visit their site at

Green Smoke (my personal favourite and what I m vaping now)

• This really is a great overall product, with real quality parts, good accessories and nice flavors too. It tastes really close to a real cig experience (I like the Absolute Tobacco flavour), and I think you just can’t can t go wrong with this brand (this is the brand I recommend to friends when they think of trying).
• The cartridges last for a long time on average (I do find it can vary slightly), they have really thick vapour for an authentic drawing/pulling experience (of course, as a smoker, you need that to get the feel as if you are smoking a real cigarette if you intend to switch), and the battery life is good too (depending of course on how much you «vape»).
• It has cool accessories such as the USB e cig for when you are out of fully charged batteries, and this allows you hook up to your laptop for a charge or to use the USB adaptor from the power socket and vape away when you re working, like I do. I also like the carry case, which looks like a genuine fancy cigarette case.

And check out their new cool Green Smoke Black Battery, vaping sophistication for 2014.

Green Smoke the black battery

The Bull Smoke Brand

• A nice product and with good flavors, and is comparable to V2.
• Competitive starter kit prices.
• And did I mention the cheap starter kit prices!

You can visit their site at

Halo E Cigarette Brand

• This one has a nice battery life, and an elegant design and feel. The shorter manual battery produces an excellent vape experience.
• It also has really easy to refill cartridges, and the end piece can be removed by hand.
• Halo also has a good selection of Refill liquids
• If you want extra battery life they have an Upgraded Triton battery, bigger than the standard battery size so longer life.

The Best Of E Cig Reviews For 2014 The main factors

Shown above are my overall top rated picks for 2014, and here are some of the main factors that influence my review for the different aspects of the e cigarettes listed, to help you decide at a glance which to try

• Cartridge Refills Best Price V2 Cigs ($9.95 for 5 cartridges)
• Cheapest Starter Kit Bull Smoke wins with $29.95 for a starter kit with 2 batteries and
  10 cartridges. (For comparison, as pricing is a an essential reason to switch to vaping for many people, V2 and South Beach kits both cost $59.95 for the comparable components, the Green Smoke kit comes in at $59.97 for 5 cartridges, a battery and a USB cig (like I described above), and the Halo G6 is $44.99 for 2 batteries and 5 cartridges).
• Best Flavour V2 Cigs Red, Green Smoke (my favourite)
• Best Battery Life The Mini Manual Halo Battery (which charges in about an hour, and then lasts much longer than other proportionately sized batteries).

• Longest Lasting Battery For your standard sized e cigs is close, the long batteries from South Beach, Bull Smoke and V2, and the standard Green Smoke are all good for quite a few hours (it depends I find on battery to battery, after you use them for a while). The longest lasting & most powerful short battery is the manual 65mm Halo. And don t forget the upgraded battery they have that lasts for more hours and if you aren t concerned with the size, then check out the Halo Triton.
• Coolest Accessories South Beach Smoke Portable Charging Case with LED lights
• Coolest Colour Ever If aesthetics are important for you, check out the Halo Iridescence Triton Battery pictured above >
• Best Disposable V2
• Thickest Vapor Green Smoke I really enjoy the vape on this
• Most Vapor Volume Standard V2 cartridges are good
• Longest Lasting Cartridges Green Smoke again
• Cheapest To Maintain V2 and Halo (as you can get refill liquid which helps you save even more money).
• Most Accessories and Options V2 check out the great carrying cases, charging cases, battery color options, and the Ultimate Kit has everything you could want.
• Biggest Throat Hit Go for highest nicotine for a good hit 1.8% or 2.4% (18mg and 24mg respectively), as all 5 listed above have nice throat hits in the higher nicotine range, V2 s 18mg flavours seem to hit the taste buds just a bit more than the others at 18mg, and even some other higher strength ones. Again, I like the Green Smoke as it really does the trick, especially with a new battery and new cartridge.

Electronic Cigarette Brands and Reviews Here at

There are quite a few good e cigarettes out there, but it doesn t need to be complicated to get started. You can just try out a couple of the top brands, and then you can t really go far wrong. That being said, as you can see above, we do have our favorites, and explain why in our review pages (see below).

There are a number of brands that create an excellent product line, with the super competitive market that electronic cigarettes have become. Each brand does have a distinct flavor, and so it may be very worth your time to try more than one, as you may try one that is good enough, and another may seal the deal, and just hit that spot.

When you factor in the cost savings, it s pretty much a no brainer, nevermind some of the nice aspects of vaping cigarettes as opposed to tobacco burning cigarettes, with ash and the smell of cigarettes being two big factors.

For our reviews below, we looked for the top rated brands by consumers, and to see how they are against each other and created our favorites on this page.
