Hi all! This is my first post, so go easy on me! 
I just smoked my first e-cig a few weeks ago and I'm already addicted!! LOL The first kit was a gift sent to me and it was a cheap little thing (Firelight Micro) with NO vapor to speak of, NO taste to speak of, and NO throat hit/lung hit. Despite that, I saw the potential and started looking online. I came across V2 with good reviews and, although pricey, the ultimate kit looked complete so I got it. I am sooooo glad that I did!!!!
I'm still vaping on the V2s and actually I kinda like them. The batteries aren't huge or anything, but they really do last longer than I thought they would and they charge really fast, too. The cartomizers have a really good amount of vapor and taste. Not so sure about the throat hit...some flavors/strengths do and some don't. I'm actually loving their Sahara cartos and the V2 Reds aren't bad, either. Their Congress and Cherry sucked majorly! I've ordered a bunch of juice samples from a few different vendors, but haven't received any of them yet. I can't wait! I'm like a kid at Christmas! LOL
Anyhow, my dilemma is this... I am quite happy with the amount of vapor and taste from the V2s (I also ordered V4L XL kit but haven't gotten it yet - now that I have researched more, I think it will end up being almost identical to the V2 kit lol) and I am happy for the most part with the batteries I have. Although I have smoked analogs for almost 35 yrs, I have lung issues and don't really like a harsh throat/lung hit. I prefer a more mellow/smooth smoke/vape instead. I used to smoke stronger cigs but had weaned myself down to ultralights for the past 10 years or so. I truly had no intentions on quitting so quickly, but I have found that I don't really want my analogs anymore and they taste awful. From that first day I tried an e-cig, I've only had at most 5 analogs in a day and most days now I'll only have one or two. Most of that is psychological, I know! It's amazing to me, though, since I was smoking over 2 packs a day of analogs just a few weeks ago!!!!!!
So, I've been looking at mods and such and I'm wanting everything I see, of course(!), but should I really go for something better, faster, and stronger if I don't want a stronger hit????? Should I just buy a handful of these batteries and a bunch of blank cartos and juice and vape on??? I feel stupid asking such a thing, but I'm so new to this and so very confused by all the choices out there! I see all the Provaris and Lavatubes and 5V mods, etc, etc, etc...and I'm wondering if I even need all of that.
ANY advice is welcomed. By the way, I love your forums...have been lurking for a few days and reading my eyes out. LMAO
