water vapor cigarettes?
soo both my parents smoke! getting them to quit would literally be impossible, i've been wanting to get both of them those water vapor cigarettes, but I was wandering how much they cost? and do you have to keep buying little peices to it? or do you just buy it and it lasts forever?

I am gathering from your second sentence that you are trying to get them to stop smoking... without them actually stopping smoking. You already have an answer to your "water vapor cigarrettes" but I wanted to add a slightly different perspective.
It may actually be better/safer to just let them smoke cigarettes. Here is a little bit of information from the Mayo clinic, and I have also pasted the website should you desire further investigation.

"Hookah smoking is not safer than cigarette smoking. Also known as narghile, shisha and goza, a hookah is a water pipe with a smoke chamber, a bowl, a pipe and a hose. ... The tobacco is no less toxic in a hookah pipe, and the water in the hookah does not filter out the toxic ingredients in the tobacco smoke. Hookah smokers may actually inhale more tobacco smoke than cigarette smokers do because of the large volume of smoke they inhale in one smoking session, which can last as long as 60 minutes."

I will leave the above here just for information but I wanted to apologize for mis-reading your question. I thought you were asking about smoking water pipes, not the vapor cigarettes.
Because I feel guilty for misreading your question I will submit to you some information I found on one particular brand. The link is below though I am not suggesting, recommending, or endorsing this product. I am sure there are other brands available that may be better, safer, etc.

They're not really a working solution yet.
Cheap ones can be 40-60, and you'll be replacing them entirely within a year. More expensive ones will last about forever, but cost 160+ just to start up and then you have to continue buying stuff.
There are several parts which must be replaced occasionally. There is a battery which will need replacement several times a year at least like any battery. There's an atomizer which creates the "smoke" water vapor which will need to be replaced as much as once a month for the regular smoker. There are nicotine cartridges which must be bought so the thing offers the nicotine charge people seek. And there's flavoring so that the cigarette actually tastes like something other than water vapor (which has no taste)
While there are plenty of people who tried and prefer electric cigarettes (people who like to smoke indoors particularly) there is way too much upkeep for most people. In addition to costing just about the same over time, it's something you've got to keep track of. You break it or lose it, you're out an investment, not just the five to seven bucks a pack costs these days.
