What's good folks? I'm a soon to be convert from analogs to vaping. I was just introduced to vaping via a friend of mine and his newly bought blu ecigs last Thursday. Funny thing is, my friend is not even a smoker (fad degenerate...lol). Since I'm a believer that nothing happens by accident, I decided to do some research and came across this forum. I can definitely say I found more than I bargained for!! Decided to read through all the threads and gather as much knowledge as I could to make a decision to vape or not to vape. After sleepless nights and dry, irritated eyes from all the information I've been reading on the forum, I've finally decided to pull the trigger and quit the analogs and start a new, carcinogen free life. Only thing is, I can't decide on where to start!! After reading thread after thread, I have come to the conclusion that I will end up buying two set-ups: one of the cig-a-likes and something along the lines of a eGo. I was thinking I'd need to start there because I wanted something more eye friendly in public and while driving (cig-a-likes) and something more serious for home use (ego). But when it comes to manufacturers, it's a jungle out here (well that and everyone is sold out of everything). How is a newbie like me who is anxious to get started and dump the analogs to start? Just to give a little background on myself using the questionnaire posted by zapped to hopefully get some guidance from you wonderful folks (thanks for the questionnaire zapped):
-
1.I currently smoke between 6-8 analogs a day (up to a 1/2 a PAD if out with the fellas).
2. I currently smoke Benson & Hedges Menthol (green pack, 100's)
3. Since I need a Mod for the house and one while in public, I can see myself purchasing 2 within the next few days.
3. I want something that has a decent battery and durable for home and small and compact for the days out and about.
4. I prefer something cylindrical.
5. Battery wise, I want something that I don't really have to worry about during the day or while out on my runs on the weekends and something I can use all night when home (got a feel I might become a chain vaper)
6. I plan to put as much time I need to into vaping depending what setup is suggested.
7. I think I would prefer menthol, fruit and candy or dessert flavors.
8.I really don't know if I would like a warmer or a cooler vape? I'll have to discover that along this journey
9. I'm looking for vapor production and flavor more than anything
10. Price, quality, reliability and ease of use is the order of what's important
11. Not trying to break the bank on my first 2 purchases, but I'm thinking I'm going to be in the $150-$175 to start.
12. I have looked at the other accessories and have a pretty good bead on everything. I know that pre-filled carts are not so good.
13. Would you feel more comfortable vaping wherever!!
14. Black, Red, Pewter are my favorite colors?
15. I know I will need backups to my backups (redundancy rocks!!)
16. I would prefer a battery that the voltage to stay the same throughout the life of the battery.
I appreciate any help or guidance y'all can provide. Thanks for reading!!
