Marc Marons Hands-On With SuperSmoker Electronic Cigarettes

Over the past six months or so, electronic cigarette manufacturers have been pushing their products in a big way. Not to the general public–not yet, at least. While the devices have managed to get something of a foothold in Asian and European countries, the concept of an electronic nicotine-delivery system is going to require a good deal of positive PR before the notoriously tech-weary American populous begins to consider adopting it, especially as e-cigarettes have a much higher entry-level cost than, say, a normal pack of cigarettes.

Recently, though, we’ve been bombarded by several PR companies looking to get us to try their clients’ products. I’ve been hesitant; after all, I’m not a smoker, never have been, and the idea of getting myself hooked on nicotine for the sake of a story–no matter how fascinating–isn’t really one that interests me (especially at my salary).

So I needed a guinea pig–a smoker or former smoker still in the shaky-handed grip of nicotine addiction. As far as I know, no there aren’t any smokers on the PCMag editorial staff. It became clear that I would have to venture beyond our office walls to find a candidate willing to risk his own well-being for the sake of entertainment–and drugs.

That someone was Marc Maron.
