Need advice on vaping setup for a noobie tight on buget :)

**cedric212** · 08-11-2012, 03:45 AM

Hi everyone~ I'm a noobie to this forum as well as to vaping. I recently swapped my analogues with disposable cheapo ecigs to determine whether it's a good alternative for me to quit smoking. Despite suffering from mild withdrawal symptoms (cough, insomnia, and tightness of the chest), I'm ready to make the commitment towards a analogue-free lifestyle. With my supply of disposables almost depleted and the new school year fast approaching, I'm looking for a vaping setup but on a tight budget (<$100). From reading reviews on ECF, it seems Ego Twist+ViviNova received some of the highest remarks by veteran vapers. Thus, without knowing if these are reputable sellers or not, here are a list of parts I'm thinking of getting for my first vapor setup. Please take a look and give me some feedbacks. Thank you and happy vaping~

I think that's a perfect set-up to start with. Heck, you could stay with that and be happy forever. I use the Twist/Nova set up and it works just great.

Did you know you have a vapor store in Columbus? You can get all that stuff right there. I've been up there to visit, they are great guys and will hook you right up and for cheaper than Gotvapes.Here's the link, give 'em a look.

I love my 1000mah Twist with a Vision 2.0 Clearo!

Good recommendations from everyone. Listen, I am a frugal vaper. I believe that when I quit smoking that my intention was to stop spending anywhere near as much money on my addiction. As such, and through 7+months of research, I have come up with The Vaper's Handbook. Please peruse it at your leisure and learn how to save the maximum amount of money while still vaping as best as possible in the process. Learn things like how to rebuild a vivi nova, what resistance to use on what voltage, how to DIY your own juice and much, much more: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/for...-handbook.html

cedric212, that would be a phenomenal starter kit compared to what many of us started on. And as SpicyMcHaggis said, many still use that setup as their daily vape. I say go for it!

Sounds like a good start, I'm 4 months in with a twist and several buildable tank setups, vivi, vision, ..Easy to clean and cheap to replace the heads/coils. Don't forget a few bucks for juice...maybe a sampler pack till you nail down a good flavor.
