The things you wish you had known before your initial e-cig investment?

[texastumbleweed]

Ok yall, it's been a week that I have been vaping. I bought the mini from Puresmoker. At first I was having problems, seemed like not much vapor emitted etc, but for some reason, it's resolved itself. Maybe the atomizer needed to get broke in? I don't know. I have REALLY cut down on my use of analog ciggies.
I love the fact that I can "vape" inside my house (I never smoke inside my house), and this is nice when it's cold or rainy outside. I love the fact that it doesn't smell. I love the taste (oh the coca cola cash juice!!).
But the things I wish I had known......for me, a heavy smoker, constantly puffing away, I should have gotten the penstyle.
With the mini, I am changing out batteries every 4 hours (i only have 2 batteries, and can't wait for a full 8-12 hour charge), and am topping off carts probably every 5-10 minutes (with 2-3 drops). My sister says that her NJOY penstyle holds a charge for much longer and the carts can accomodate 10 drops or so. She has the mini also, so she has been able to compare.
Therefore, I am going to order the NJOY penstyle (she is so happy with it, i dont want to take a chance and order a penstyle from anywhere else), and will order empty carts and e-juice from PURESMOKER for sure.
I also wish I had known how much I would enjoy vaping, and would have ordered more juices and carts to save money on shipping, with my initial order.
What are the things that you wish you had known?

I wish I had discovered this board before I decided to waste my money on a Gamucci !!

before i place an order with NJOY, i would welcome anyone to share their opinion of the penstyles by NJOY vs. PURESMOKER...
also, i just saw ecigarettesales site, where the Jane's Kick Juice is sold in some good flavors. those penstyles are very inexpensive, but regardless of how much i search the forums here, i cant find much anything regarding reviews of their product (the ecigs). has anyone bought them? or do they just order the kick juice from that site??? a mystery....
will wait till tomorrow for replies and then make a decision

Hi Textum

I kicked off with an NJOY penstyle and while it was a good e-cig, it wasn't superior enough to justify the price difference over a generic pen. Also the cart prices are murderous (tasty though). I'm in the UK so haven't ordered from Steve, but I have used the model.

Hope it works out for ya

I'm not 100% but isn't the njoy penner the same re-branded generic cash sells ?

it wouldnt have made much difference a few months back pete.. the board would have had u wasting your money on a sedansa or njoy... he he

gamucci is 10% the price of the (rebranded generic) e cig and 90% the price of the sales promotion.. but it has made lots of people aware of e cigs.. it did me even tho i wasnt daft enough to buy one..

but if u take a 10 dollar product spend 90 dollars telling the world how wonderfull it is and sell it for 150 dollars u make loads of money..

if u take the same 10 dollar product spend 10 dollars on promotion and sell it for 30 dollars u make no money..

trog

ps... most e cigs are ten dollar products no matter what the customer ends up paying for them..

I know nothing about the NJOY but I have used puresmokers and Jane's. Jane's was great for about a week and then draw got really hard and nothing has changed since. Puresmokers lasted me much longer about a month and a half before the draw got really hard. I have no idea how to resolve the draw problem so they are now pretty much sitting here gathering dust.

Tumble, I had the same issue with my pen from Puresmoker. I steamed it a bit, swished it around for a few seconds in some boiling water, blew it out good and let it drain and dry. It has worked beautifully ever since and has been about 6 weeks now. I still love my mini but my pen is quickly becoming my favorite. It's a bit heaver and longer but it gives me much better vapor, especially when I'm dripping it.

I also wish I had known how much I would enjoy vaping, and I would have ordered more juice FLAVORS!! yum!!

I did do my research, spent a lot of time here reading before ordering... I got the pen style kit from puresmoker, along with an extra battery & atomizer, extra carts, extra juice... and I still want more... more...

More juice, more gadgets... I want it all!!

Uh, well, except for the dang auto clean on the batteries. sigh.
