Hi Guys and thanks for all the help, i used this forum alot during my near 2 month journey smoking personal vaporizers. I think i did sound research and it seems many people get ripped off when starting e-cigs and they may benifit from my experience. i was a two pack a day smoker, and now i smoke maybe 4 cigs a day, after 2 months, and i feel so much better, and i know if i keep it up i will quit fully soon.

I had heard plenty about electronic cigarettes, but people aren't really blazing away in the open in Los Angeles, I had a few aquaintances that had said they had one at home, but didn't really use them much. I was determined to get one, but I never go to the mall, and spending $100 seemed silly, as i know i could always find a better deal for electronics on-line. I started surfing. I first ran across some "big-chain" (Blu, Green-cig etc) companies... I could smell cheesiness right off the bat, so i surfed harder. . i started to note the different model types, (510, 801, 901, kr-808) and i was not suprised to see that many large companies just branded a basic model, and called it a different name. I was so glad i did all this research.

I was to going to order a Kr808. It seemed small, and easy. and after researching prices, I couldn't beat the price or presentation of PURE-SMOKERS KR808 starter kit. I had found a few that were close, but right of the bat, you could tell, that that company was no joke, they were a USA company, and they stood behind the KR808, as a beginners cig. being that they produced these big battery mods, and only sold the KR808 was proof enough for me. and at just around $30? you just cannot beat that, of course i ordered some carts etc, and spent about $40, but i knew i was getting a good deal. thanks PURE SMOKER, i am still using those batts, and i think a couple of my original carto's. I think Puresmoker is an awesome company, I will speak more about them later.

I recieved the KR8, and lit it up, awesome, but after an hour or so i knew these 5 prefilled carts and 2 batts were going to be vaped quick, so I went on the hunt for juice and a USB passthrough, with the same vigilance, i surfed, I am kinda frugal, and also mad-scientist. (i am sure more than a few of you were dreaming of starting a nic-juice lab in your first weeks like i was) I found GOODPROPHETS, I ordered a 50ml 555 juice for a good go-to started stockpile, a few lil bottles, a USB passthrough and some more carts. All in all i think this is a great accsesories and parts site, with good priced regular type juice.

I was happy as a clam to find BLUEMIST vaping who sold me my 120ml bottle of 60mg unflavored concentrate for less than $35. and also some awesome premixed juice, which was great because you could order it in different PG/VG ratio, and double flavored, so you can mix down. I got the juice, YUM! awesome juice, awesome price, awesome super high unflavored nic, for mixing, best deal i could find. he also sells 5oz vg which was awesome to get at the same time. i still have 1/2 the bottle, of 60mg, and have aquired a bunch of loranns flavors, but my desire to become a e-liquid mogul has subsided, but i enjoy mixing for myself and friends etc.

I ordered some more Batts from Puresmoker, Longer extra Mah batts for my kr8, (goodprophets was sold out at the time). happy

i gave my mom one of my kr8's for a day and she quit smoking, and is a vaping monster, she has since ordered 2 KR8 starter kits from puresmoker, and juice. she is happy. she smokes all my juice, and is really actually crazier than me about it all, she chain vapes like a frieght train, which is wierd, because she smoked probably 1/10th the analogs i did.

i ordered some juice and a atomizer from LibertyFlights, the juice is ho-hum, and i wont be buying from that company anymore.

I decided i am going to get the V3 prodigy, as my first HV device, that or the GG telescopic seems great too, but i am a loyal guy, and customer service and reachability are my main concerns when doing business.

but all in all, thanks ECF, thanks PURESMOKER, GOODPROPHETS and BLUEMISTVAPING, each of these companies are great, and i say this mainly because each responded to my "Comments and questions" on the order form greatly, and have sent me great products at a great price, (dont forget to look for coupon codes!)

Good experiences with good venders are always nice to read. I've found some that I'm loyal to as well. Chris at myfreedomsmokes is the first to come to mind. He's the guy I get my 60mg unflavored juice from. When I had an issue once (and only once) he called me up and we spoke at length on the phone. He ended up sending me out another 125ml bottle and seemed happy to do so. Great guy.
Some others are Mark at madvapes. I like him. Isaak at Ikenvape is pretty cool too.
