Do e-cigarettes actually work?
I have a friend who has been using an e-cigarette for 10+ years. He doesn't seem any less addicted to smoking as back when he was using old-fashioned cigarettes.
I understand e-cigarettes are supposed to help you quit... but has anyone actually had success with them? Or, is it more like trading one vice for another?

They work just fine.
They get you off cigarettes. Problem solved.
You'll just be vaping all the time, instead.
They were never for quitting everything. Just cigarettes.
If only there was some benefits from switching. Like financially or lung-capacity wise.
There are. Vapes are orders of magnitude less harmful than cigarettes.

Sorry. Poe's Law. There's plenty of people in this thread making that statement seriously.
Maybe add a /s although I hate having to add an /s.
I'd say they work if you want to quit and also actively do so. They don't work for quitting if you just replace cigarettes with e-cigatettes. That's like an alcoholic that's drinking wine instead of beer and wonders why he's still an alcoholic
Actually, vapes were created to get you smoking MORE because you can smoke them inside. They indeed get you off of smoking cigarettes, they did for me, I probably vape 1.5-2x more than I ever smoked.
