Can I smoke my NICOCIG™ anywhere?
As tobacco is neither present nor lit when using NICOCIG™ it can be used in public places where the use of ordinary cigarettes is currently prohibited. The vapour that is exhaled is odourless and does not cause irritation to those nearby. This means it can be used in restaurants, bars, casinos and in the office, however please note the use of NICOCIG™ is always down to the managers discretion.
For those users that have the Original Nicocig starter kit, the New & Improved cartomisers are completely compatible. The atomiser (silver connecting piece) is no longer needed, as each cartomiser has its own built in atomiser that fits directly onto the battery. The New & Improved cartomisers will not fit the Nicocig Plus model, for this model separate Nicocig Plus cartridges are available. If you are unsure on compatibility issues, please do not hesitate to contact us further on 0121 382 2285.
Does it taste the same as an ordinary cigarette?
NICOCIG™ tobacco flavoured cartridges have been carefully developed to match the taste of a real cigarette. Thus providing real smoking satisfaction.
Why is NICOCIG™ a safer alternative?
Tobacco is the substance within cigarettes that is responsible for many of the illnesses and deaths caused by smoking. NICOCIG™ offers users the chance to still satisfy their nicotine craving without the use of lit tobacco, in fact without tobacco at all. There are over 4000 chemicals in every ordinary cigarette, around 25 of which are carcinogenic. None of these are present when smoking NICOCIG™
What is the smoke that is released?
The smoke that is released is merely an odourless harmless condensation, and does not linger like the smoke produced by an ordinary cigarette. There is no risk of passive smoking when using NICOCIG™
How long does the battery last?
Each battery once fully charged will last approximately 8-10 hours. This will depend on how frequently you use your NICOCIG™. Remember the starter kit contains 2 batteries, so while one is charging you can use the other. The battery can be charged via the USB charger in any computer, laptop or device that takes USB. There is also an adaptor provided, so you can charge the battery through a standard wall socket. Spare batteries are available via the online shop.
How long does one cartomiser last?
Each cartomiser no matter what strength or flavour is approximately equivalent to about 20 ordinary cigarettes. All cartomiser are purchased in boxes of 3. Users will know when a cartomiser they are using has run out, when they can no longer exhale vapour after an inhalation.
NICOCIG™ cartomisers screw into the end of your battery, and contain liquid nicotine. They are available in a variety of different nicotine strengths, (high, medium, low and zero). The cartomisers come in a tobacco and menthol flavour.
What do I get in a starter kit?
A starter kit contains a NICOCIG ™ electronic cigarette, a spare battery, a charger, a carry case, and a box of NICOCIG™ cartridges. The box contains 4 cartomisers each equivalent to about 20 ordinary cigarettes. The initial box will contain various strength cartridges (High, Medium, Low and Zero), so that you can decide on the strength that best suits your needs. This is a one off purchase, and only replacement cartridges need to be brought after this.
