@figurehead - I probably missed it somewhere, but do you *own* a 510?

Nope. Not yet at least.

@figurehead - see comments in the m201 review. The 510 atty will go onto a m201 or J118 battery, would love to see a direct comparison between the 3 if you wind up feeling so inclined.

So after about a week of viewing the message board here i decided to take the plunge.

I ordered a VX2 deluxe starter kit from litecigusa, along with an extra atomizer, some empty carts, and 5 varieties of liquid. I also placed an order for additional liquid from east mall.

I am patiently waiting for my delivery. At the moment I smoke about a pack of analogues a day, and i hope the VX2 will replace that habit.

I have a few questions that i have not found definite answers to. One question is, how often to i need to replace the atomizer? I ordered one extra and was wondering how long the two from this order will last me. Also, I work 10 hour shifts at work, how many carts/batteries will i need to last the day, assuming i usually have about 1 cigg break every 2 hours, sometimes more depending on business.

I cant wait to try this whole e-cig experience!!

Atomizers are just as different as people are. I've had 901 atomizers last 2 weeks, and have one that is now 4 months and still going. A 10 hour day will need 2 batteries minimum. If you top off your carts with juice, 1 cart will last you several days easily.

Thanks for the info and the fast reply. I must confess my decision to go with the VX2 was based on your glowing review, Figurehead

OK, you nearly made me order the J118. Damn, yet another thing to spend my money! Seriously, nice and informative review. One question, though. I’ve got some 801, 901/4075, 401, 510. I dismiss the 801 for it’s cold vapour, by far prefer the 510 for it’s performace, like the 901/4075 for it’s robustness and the 401 whistele for it’s simplicity, light draw and size (with smaller 402/3 batteries). For me, the main drawback of the 510 is the high amount of condensate built up, requiring constant draining, and fluid leakage. I’m all willing to trade a -slightly- lower performence than the 510 for less condensate and less leakage. Question, therefore, did you experience any problem of leakage or fluid spill connected to the J118? And, about the J188 cart design, is this one piece or has it a separate fluid container (such as 801, RN4075)? Any problems with refilling and topping up or is it easy going? Thx.

Tom - I like the J118 carts, when I want to hang a cig from my mouth. But, I usually wind up using them on my 510, and not the J118 right now. The foil is actually sort of annoying, it's glued on quite well, good for cart 'freshness' if you like the OE cart liquid, annoying to remove it all, however..and there are no 'end caps' available for the J118 carts that I've seen, although a 510 cap 'sort of' fits.

Two piece carts. I do like the PCC, but have yet to get a 510 comparable throat hit from mine, and the batteries if you DO hang from your mouth, generally will activate the attys just from the minor (open mouthed even) breathing you do - they're quite sensitive.

I haven't had a problem with leakage on the J118, but also haven't had one with my 510s, either.

The draw on the J118 is much lighter than the 510, too light for me personally.

I don't smoke, but I wanted to get my dad one of these so that maybe he'd stop smoking.

How much would you recommend this to someone who's never used a electronic one before? (It's father's day present). It's either this one or a 901.

I'm not really sure how he enjoys his cigarettes, but he exclusively smokes '555' brand, about half a pack a day. Those cartons cost $80, so I'm sure this electronic cigarette would help bunches.

On a side note, does anyone know where I could find a liquid that tastes like 555?

kerplunk17 · 06-12-2009, 09:01 PM

Just got home from work and the VX2 is here! Charging batteries now

I am very excited.

I ordered this from litecigusa and I bought 555 liquid from them, however I looked today and its not there anymore, East mall still has 555 liquid in stock.
