901 or 510 as my first e-cig?

I've narrowed down my first e-cig choice to the 901 or the 510.
The things that I would prefer in an e-cig:

BETTER with fruity and food flavors (strawberry, chocolate) rather than tabacco, menthol, etc.

Can withstand about 2 hours of puffing a day for quite some time.

I don't care at all about throat hit.

Decent amount of vapor.

Decently cheap is nice :laugh: anyone know cheap starter kits of each, also?
Thanks.

Hi Jacob. Apparently this was a duplicate thread and the moderator deleted the thread with all the answers in it !?
In case you didn't see the answers before they were deleted mine was this: The 901 is by far the better unit at delivering rich flavor. Throat hit is, for the most part, determined by the contents of the juice. As a rule the higher the nic level the stronger the throat hit.
I started with the 901. I quickly moved on to battery mods because the stock batteries kinda suck. They don't hold a charge long enough for me. I was draining them faster than I could charge them.
I've used 901, 510 and kr808s and the stock batteries for the 901 and 510 both have this deficiency. The kr808 D-1 batteries are better and the 901 attys work with them so my best suggestion would be to get a kr808 starter kit (maybe from here KR808D-1 Matte black base e-Cigarette starter kit ) and some 901 attys maybe from here Dse-901 Atomizer's (best price I could find right now that wasn't in China)
Hope this helps.

I'll echo mistinthewoods. I would typically recommend a 510 for a first ecig with the KR808 running a close second. Your requirement for better flavor rather than more throat hit definitely make the 901 a winner and combining it with the better battery of the KR808 should be a sure winner. The KR808 will also give you the opportunity to try cartos which may suit your needs well also.

I'm a huge fan of both the 510 and kr808. They are both really good devices for a 1st kit. The 808 makes things extremely simple b/c of the cartos. I mean you can get cartos for the 510 too it's just a extra cost usually to buy them where the kr808 usually come with a 5 pack that you can reuse for a lil bit before they give out on you. Just whatever you do make sure you get a manual battery or at least a 10sec cutoff.

Well Joe and 5card, I guess it's a matter of taste but I have a few regular 510 attys and a low resistance 510 atty sittin' on a shelf (in a drawer actually) because I can't taste my juice with them. The 510 cartos work pretty well though. I swear I get more vapor out of the cartos than the LR 510 atty too.

And you got about a month's supply of juice, right?
BTW, you picked a really good firm to buy from.

and here's a free pointer:

a happy atty is a wet atty :)

That's good to hear. A little nervous after seeing some of the stuff in their section of the forum.

I've got a little bit coming in, I got a couple of small sized jars in various flavors to try a little of before buying a bigger batch. Buying the eGo was way more than I wanted to spend but no way I could pass that opportunity up. I was afraid the 510 batteries might not cut it as I have to put my smoke 51 duo on the charger every time I can because I only have one and hate when it's dead.

So now I'm going to have to pick one flavor and buy the most economical amount that I can afford. Who do you suggest for the best prices and lowest s&h?

Edit: I might grab some unflavored nic juice and some flavor since it sounds more economical
