I would suggest that you order (along with the tobacco flavor) at least one each of the following: fruit, coffee, bakery, and maybe a mint/menthol type. I was off the tobacco flavors very quickly, which happens to lots of vapers who are sure they'll never vape any of those "weird" flavors. Don't order too much of any one juice to start with or you'll end up wasting your money if you hate it. I'd guesstimate that I've disliked about half of the flavors I've tried - and I've only really loved about 10% of them at most.

So I ordered everything that I had mentioned, basically two of everything for equipment. That should get my wife and I going. I also ordered a bunch of sampler packs from four or so different places. All in all to get started my way I spent like $400 bucks :ohmy: $250 on equipment and the rest on juice. I can see DIY juice making in my future.:D I will get some pics posted up as soon as I can.

Tazz,
Its so worth the initial expense to actually not be a slave to tobacco is priceless. I googled "North carolina vape store" and found a local store a hour from me. Nice to know in case your low on juice or cartomizers and need to make a emergency trip to get more. The only thing I found with juice is I don't like the super cheap chinese variety. Some very popular juices are Upstomp, flavors by Joe, the vapor room there are tons. If you find a local store they usually have samples there to try. After a week the tobacco juices tasted nasty to me. I went to the vape store and found I like the fruit flavors better. Let us know when you get your ego's and what you think. Congrats on trying this, quitting is never easy.

Yea the initial investment is pretty high but I did get good equipment. I didn't mention it but I did get 50 Boge carts, Those should last a while. Once we find the type of juices we like I'll start to DIY them, that should save me alot of money in the long run. I pretty much spent 2 months worth of analogs today but hey if I don't ever buy another pack after this weekend it's money well spent.

Another option that I use is to buy some 2-2.5 ohm atomizers to sample juices before I fill a tank and carto this allows me to buy sample packs and find those tank worthy juices. On another note I try to stay away from the dual coil cartos anymore that whole ohm vs voltage thing, I find that 2 ohm at 5 volts is perfect for me except this darn watermelon I just got 5v seems to burn it :mad: anyway welcome and do enjoy:D

I enjoy Watermelon @ 3.6 volts with 2.0 ohm. I know it's not a lot of watts (6.5) but I don't care about the number; I'm after the taste.

Enjoy!

OK, so I got all my stuff in on Saturday night and let me tell ya, WOW. I have only had one analog since then. These things are AWESOME. Here's funny thing, my wife thought she wanted the tobacco taste and guess what..... she really, really likes the fruit and coffee flavors. I'm done with analogs and she has only had three today. Of course as soon as I tried the setup I have I chocked on my first two hits as I was trying to inhale like an analog but I learned real quick. Anyways we have a lot of juice to try and enjoy.

Tazz. Welcome! I have ego twist setup a with boge LR cartos at about 2ohms. I comfortably vape those at 4.3V on the twist. That is pretty much my sweet spot for most flavors. The now thing is that some flavors vape nicer at different levels and you can adjust the output. That setup is my "travel" setup. I use smoktech tanks with SS boges on my provari for the most part. But those tanks are slender enough that I will comfortably use them on the ego as well. Not too top heavy. Also the LR 1.5-2.0 ohm will provide a better throat hit and vape. It'll be closer to a cig experience in my opinion. I'd stay LR , 1.5-2.0 ohm to start. 3.0 allows higher but will sacrifice some.

I'm from Ludlow so nice to meet a local. Not much in the way of brick and mortar here. It's your kiosks, etc. there is a place out toward Boston but over a year ago he was limited on variety. We shop online.

I vape boba's bounty for my "daily tobacco". Nice flavor. Gorilla juice is great. Tobacco with a hint of banana. But you'll end up with flavors too.

Wife and I both quit in December of 2010. You both will do fine. Especially getting the twist.

As we speak I'm vaping Boba's right now, good stuff. I'm closer to you than you think, my wife is from Ludlow and we live just down the street in East Springfield, small world isn't it.

Wow. That is a stone throw indeed. If your wife likes some other flavors, alien vision has a cheesecake that my wife hasn't been able to beat. Hype is another great one that's gonna go in a tank for me. She does some DIY but can't settle on one because it's good and then gets "boring". And she can't get it close enough to be that good. Jut ordered few more samples from there plus quick nic juice
