    Typical first month expenditure?

    I too tend to go overboard with new hobbies, and also consider vaping a hobby. I just added up my costs. Rough total is $623 in a little over 3 weeks. :blush: Add in the coin I spent on locally available crap :facepalm: and the total comes up to...

    Hello Everyone

    Great thing about the 510 kit, if you do decide to upgrade to an ego for longer batt life, all the stuff you've already bought will work. You'd just need the bigger batts and an ego charger. (I've heard a normal 510 charger will work with ego batts, just takes alot longer to charge, but haven't...

    Spares are KEY

    One more quick piece of advice. Never drip with unsealed auto batts :p Maximillian the Vaguely Disreputable

    Heyas Trilly, Sounds like you researched your purchase much better than I did my first one! Props to you! :thumbs: Maximillian the Vaguely Disreputable

    Sold Out

    Heyas Trilly, Just looked at Jac Vapours site. I'm not sure what kind of ecig that is. I'm mostly only familiar with 510 stuff. But it's most likely rebranded/cloned stuff. I've been trying to stay away from any site that puts their own name on something without identifying what it is...

    Started vaping last week without success

    Heyas, I ordered an ego kit from cignot also, and haven't regretted the purchase for a moment. You can find lower prices, but cignot is reasonable, and service is prompt and excellent! When I ordered my kit, I didn't know what a drip tip was exactly either, but as it was only a...

    Thank you from newb struggler

    Heyas Trese, I've only been vaping about 3 weeks. Haven't actually tried to quit smoking yet. But, I'm down from over 1pad to 1/2pad or less. Friday when I got off work I was out. Bought 3 packs and when I got up on monday, still had 9 left in the first pack. Then smoked 8 analogs on monday...

    Newbie with a 510

    Heyas rkelly, Welcome, and glad you love your first pv! My first was a cheap 510 knockoff that didn't perform overly well. Second was a blu disposable. Tasty but overpriced. However, I did immediately fall in love with the first pv that I ordered. Still collecting different hardwre/juices...

    New to the e-cig community...

    Heyas Nunnster :nun: , Don't you just hate the taste of that lung butter? Can't even describe it. It's somewhere between mildew and really smelly feet... Yuck! 8-o Live long and vapor, Maximillian the Vaguely Disreputable

    A couple new member questioins...

    The prices look a bit high, but not outrageously so. Only other comment I'd make is that, if the pic of the ego is correct, I think it's a knockoff, not a genuine Joye ego. Looks like the band on the battery is gold, not silver. All the Joye ego's I've seen had chrome bands. But, I could be...

    A couple new member questioins...

    Heyas, Not a bad idea. Get one of each, you'll both have a whole kit, and you can each try the normal ego and the tank, see which one you like best. throw in a box or two of carto's at less than $10 for 5, and you'll have covered all your bases. I have an ego, and love it! However, many...

    Lesson learned

    Heyas Kissowa, lol. So far, worst thing I did was singe my first carto. Read again and again not to let them get dry, then the first time I used one, forgot about that and decided to vape 'till it wouldn't go any more. Refilled it with the same juice, and YUCK! At least it only cost me a...

    Yay! Found a good forum finally :)

    Heyas, +1 on dormouses Boge cartos, as a backup if nothing else. ego-t atty's tend to run about $5 (shipped from china) up to $15 or more from a stateside vendor, with most prices somewhere between. Boge cartos can be had for less than $2 each, so it's a cheap backup to have around. And...

    drip tip advice for a newbie?

    Heyas, I'm fairly new to vaping, but like to drip to try out new flavors. I just blow out the atty if it's new, put 3 drops directly into the atty to start, then put on the driptip and vape away. Whenever the vapor/taste start to diminish I drip 2 or 3 drops into the driptip and continue...

    Just started smoking again after 6 years smoke free. Is Vaping A Good Deterrent?

    Woot! Glad you had as good of an experience as I did with the disposable. Anytime I mention the blu disposables around here, I have this instinctive urge to cover my head with my jacket, to avoid the rotten vegetables that I expect to be pelted with :p j/k. So far, no one has thrown decomposing...

    Just started smoking again after 6 years smoke free. Is Vaping A Good Deterrent?

    Heyas Miss, Glad to hear you want to quit smoking. Always a good thing. I only started vaping a few weeks ago, so take anything I say with a grain of salt ;p I haven't heard of zerocig. Blu is generally regarded as overpriced crap on these forums. I've heard good things about vapor 4...

    KGO owners only!

    Heyas Nubee, LR does in fact mean a lower resistance value. i.e. 1.7oms is lower than 3oms. Less resistance means more/hotter vapor, shorter battery charge life (not sure about battery life in general), and I've heard that LR atty's and carto's are likely to burn out faster than normal...

    KGO owners only!

    Heyas Nubee, I just looked at the hoosier site, and I noticed that in the description of the kgo kit, they say it now comes with the 'large borecones'. So, that makes me wonder, why would you need a large bore cone? Maybe the manufacurer is using a proprietary atty that has a 510 thread but...
