2007 Evening Standard 22 Oct. 7/1 Celebrity hangout Chinawhite in Soho is trying out Britain's first ‘e-cig,’ a Chinese-made device that mimics the ritual of smoking but is claimed to be entirely legal indoors.

2009 New Scientist 13 June 9/3 While e-cigs are a potentially interesting approach to reducing the harm done by smoking, there is little information on how smokers use them, and how much nicotine and other toxicants they inhale.

2013 N.Y. Mag. 6 May 27/1 There were maybe 200 online e-cig sellers. But the product they were selling barely registered with smokers.
