Lies that went on too long
When you lie you often have to keep lying. Share your pain. When I was 15 I pretended to be 16 to help get a summer job. Then had to spend a summer with this nice shopkeeper asking me everyday if I was excited about getting my GCSE results. I felt like an utter shit. Thanks to MerseyMal for the suggestion.

Can I just point out the fact
whilst he is still inhaling nicotine from an electronic cigarette he actually hasn't given up anything, in fact he's probably got a bigger fucking habit now. Granted it's cheaper and doesn't fuck your lungs up as much, but he's still hooked and while he's still hooked he'll still crave it like a man possessed until he rids his body of nicotine for at least three weeks.
Champix (from my GP) and Alan Car (from the Library) worked for me The Champix fixed the physical craving and Alan Car's book broke the mental obsession. Tax helped a lot too - it was either eat or smoke in the end and I couldn't afford to do both.

I didn't want to mention this.
Also, e-cigarettes do not make you look cool. An arm load of patches is where it's at - way cooler than tattoos.

Entirely this.
The substitutes/replacements all have nicotine in them to keep you hooked.
Cold turkey is the only way, and it will only happen if he wants to - your nagging will only serve to fuel the surreptitious behaviour, although it would be funny as fuck to confront him on it.

Bullshit
I used nictone gum for 9 months, switched to regular sugar free gum after that and have now stopped that too.
Not a craving had.
Not saying that it will work for everyone, just saying that sweeping 'cold turkey is the only way' statements aren't true.

Plus
E-cigarettes contain glycols, so you're inhaling vaporised antifreeze. Probably not great for the inner workings.
