just curious how you guys feel about this. been researching for about a week pretty heavy, moving to ecigs after 2 years of being addicted to NRT's.

at this point, im fine with the addiction, just need a cheaper delivery method i spend 35 every week and a half on commits :unsure:

so anyway, want to order tonight was just wondering what you all think on this topic =p.

feel free to make suggestions. just keep in mind, warranty and customer service is huge for me.

thanks in advance

Personally, I love the Joye 510. The attys provide a very good TH and produce some good vapor. The only fault with the 510 is the battery life. It is only a 180 mah. The battery will die within an hour of use. If you do decide to go with the 510, be sure to pick up the PCC. That way you'll have a freshly charged batt everytime you go to vape. The PCC will last you all day (I believe its good for about 5-6 FULL charges). You may also want to consider picking up the Janty eGo. Designed specifically for the 510 atty. As well as the Silver Bullet, BB, Provape, chuck, etc etc. So it will keep your options open for when you want to upgrade to a mod.
There are adapters for 901 attys as well, but IMO its just one more step ya gotta worry about.
The 901 I have no experience with and cannot make too many statements about. Ive read many good things.
Hope this helps. Good luck with your purchase. Im sure you'll be very content wit whatever you go with.

They are both good - whichever one you buy you can also buy an adapter which lets you use the other too :) Best of both worlds.
The 510 is probably the easiest to mod, and many mods carry threading for 510 attys BUT again, you can buy adapters to use a 901 on them; thats what I do. I have 510 kits, and mainly use 510s but I have a 901 atty or 2 and an adapter so I can use them on my 510 batt, PT etc.

i just realized although i had just read about 901's i didnt MEAN 901's. noob mistake.

i guess what i meant was the l88b? basically the same thing thats in the volcano and revolver elite right?
I don't think you'll be very satisfied with the l88b model, but you may like it, who knows! I went with the blu (same model (L88b) I'm pretty sure) and I was immediately dissatisfied. Everything was in perfect working order and good condition but it was just sooooo sensitive, it went off if you even touched the thing... and even with the PCC you'll constantly be switching batteries and the carts are soo tiny, barely hold any juice at all, and the vapor production is poor at best. But there are tons of mods out there, and maybe you could come up with your own if you're really set on the L88b model. But as far as reliability and durability goes... 510 allll the way.

Lots of 510 fanatics in here. I'm not really one of them. I've used both and the major difference is in flavor. The 901 delivers much better flavor. I don't think I've ever seen anyone who knows dispute that fact. People say that the 510 has better vapor production and throat hit. That's not my experience. Throat hit is all about the juice. I put grain alcohol in my juice, (many juice makers do) about 5 drops for 10 ml. This gives the throat hit. Nic levels are also a factor in TH. As far as vapor production goes, that can be effected by the juice as well. VG produces more vapor than PG. My personal mix is 60% VG /40% PG. and I get tons of vapor.
I guess it's personal preference. Kind of like Windows VS Apple. Windows is more popular but Apple has always been better. (That should start somethin"! tee hee)
