I have never seen a Cigar type E-cigarette, but I can surely imagine they do exist somewhere. Have you ever used one? I am mostly a cigar smoker so would prefer one of these to a normal e-cigarette.

I've never seen or used a cigar type e-cig but honestly I don't think that there would be a difference between a cigar type e-cig or just a normal e-cig, I think that it would just be an ascetic difference more than anything.
I heard that it's easier to transition from cigarettes to vapes with minis or the cig-a-likes. Unfortunately, I haven't tried one myself. I did find some potential brands I'd buy when I have the budget. Here are they: V2's KR808 Green Smoke's KR808 I heard that this type of e-cigs require more charging though. And it may not satisfy some vapers too.
I honestly didn't know that an e-cigar was an option until I got to this board! Can anyone tell me if these e-cigars have a harsher taste versus the regular menthol flavors? I smoke cigarillos from time to time and if I can find a device close to this taste, I wouldn't mind mixing it up a bit. (no pun intended)
I've read that e-cigars have a milder taste than the regular cigarettes. That is actually one of its downsides, it might not satisfy the cigarette smoker as much as compared to cigarettes or other devices. But it is still worth a try since it's cheaper and lighter. Who knows if it will actually work for you.
What is it, exactly, about this "full-bodied" flavour I hear about cigarettes having? I've always been a vape/waterpipe guy, so if it gets much more harsh than that, I'm totally out.
Definitely never heard of it but it sounds like a cool idea. Do post about it if you find a company that makes them.
Cigar-like vapes were sold where I bought my E-cig, but I didn't bother with them. The battery is really small compared to regular e-cigs, you'll have to recharge it every hour if you smoke continuously. That's a huge disadvantage compared to a normal e-cig, definitely not worth it for me.
I don't really see a difference between E-cigs and E-gars though. From what I have read and what you posted they seem to do the same thing but just look different. What did I miss??
Well, with cigars you don't really inhale, Cigar smoke is easier to absorb via the gums. E-cigars would have to accommodate a different compound that allows you to retro-hale, and still cause nicotine absorption.
