Starter supplies advice
I didn't realize at first I could do a new threat in newbie forum, so this is a repost from tutorial thread:
Newbie here, can't do a thread, so here's my "proposal" for a starter supplies list; what do you think?
from e-smokeytreats (I'm in Oregon, want the quick shipping):
- mini electronic cig kit (DSE 901) - comes w/ 2 batts, 2 atomizers
- extra battery
- extra atomizer
- e-liquid: tobacco flavor, med strength (18 mg/mL)
- multiflavor/sampler cartridge pack (5)
for some reason, e-smokeytreats doesn't sell blank cartridges for the mini?? i am planning on re-using the expired cartridges from the kit/sampler to refill w/ the tobacco flavor e-juice. bad/good idea??
I want to try it for both me and my boyfriend; we both smoke a lot (I can burn 2+ packs/day, he burns 1+ pack/day). Once I get paid, I can buy another cig if necessary, but thought we could play w/ one for now to try it out, as long as we had extra parts. Advice/suggestions?
I read for HOURS/i.e., my whole weekend, to come up w/ this first purchase, I expect to have frustrations and disappointments w/ user error/device temperamentability (if that's a word!), but is this a good starter/intro supply list? It costs ~$101 US shipped free. we are hurting w/ $$, so, deal or no deal???

Sorry no one has replied yet, but it sounds good to me.
Assuming, of course, it has a charger in there somewhere.

Also, I hope your extra bottle of juice is at least 15ml.

I got my starter kit from Ruyan Direct.
- 2 x 180mA/h batteries
- 1 x atomizer
- 1 x 100-240V wall charger
- 5 x cartridges (2 high, 1 med, 1 low, 1 none)
- 1 x manual
and I ordered extra
- 1 x atomizer
- 1 x 30ml cuban cigar e-liquid
Everything for $51.50 shipped to Canada.

you have a decent order to start and stick with the quick shipping on your first one
you might find it cheaper though and the new manual buttons would perform better IMO

Thanks all ~~ Yup, the kit also comes w/ charger and a 5-cartridge (various strength) pack. E-juice is 15 mL.
Ya Happily, I wondered whether should start w/ manual or not?? I've heard they perform better, but maybe is too different (from regular smoking) to start with? I'm too indecisive!!!
Val, sounds like you got a steal.....I do want to keep quick shipping though....
Thanks everyone!

Yes ,that sounds good. I got my first kit from esmoky, the 510 which is a really nice e e-cig....and I did refill the pre-filled carts just untill i was able order some blanks......good luck and have fun!

Your exact order from Ruyan Direct would be $72.50, including 30ml e-liquid bottle and EMS 7-10 day shipping. People on this forum say the packages arrive from China in a week. I got mine in 2 weeks with cheaper regular air mail. You will find many resellers order custom boxes, custom logos on atomizers, custom colors etc. than sell basically the same product for near double price. There is no such thing like "free shipping". You always pay for the shipping, included in the price of product or separately.

The only mistake I see is getting a regular DSE901 instead of a manual DSE901 or another manual type PV. You are going to switch to one eventually like 95% of us have, why not save time and money and do it now.

There is one US supplier that provides free shipping on all orders as well as has competitive pricing. (i.e. $11 for a manual DSE901 battery) I would definitely check out:

Don't go making threats on the forum right off. Wait a while.

I tease.
Your kit sounds good, with the addition of a couple manual batteries, which you will come to prefer most surely.
Good luck getting you and the BF off the evil weed!
