I have a friend who did this, from the outside perspective of watching him, my impression was that an electronic cigarette really only transfers your nicotine dependence to another object. You end up not doing anything to really attack the addiction, you just move to another way to fuel it.

Ironically, because the electronic cigarette was supposedly healthier, he smoked it more and more, so what he did was increase his dependence on nicotine while he was trying to quit the habit.

I feel like its better to attempt a cold turkey break. It was way harder for my friend in the end to kick the habit than if he had tried cold turkey without the move to electronic.

my 2 cents
