I agree that's a great kit, also agree in the recommendation to get the bigger batteries. A cartomizer has filler in it that holds the juice, and a clearomizer generally does not. With a clearo you can see your juice level, which is *generally* not the case with cartos. I use both, some people swear by cartos, some by clearos, you will discover your preference in time. I'm sure I didn't explain that too well, but hopefully I helped some lol.

Honestly. I would spend the extra money on a vv mod like a cylon by electronic stix or another LT type device. It is a little more expensive. However most people always upgrade to a mod anyways so might as well save some money in the long run and take the short cut

Not necessarily. I have a VTube (2 actually) and an EPower I use at home but I carry KGO 650s to work as they are compact and easy to carry around. Even on my VV unit I generally run it a 3.7 volts as that is what my carto/clearo/juice combos like. Simplicity is not necessarily a bad thing and being small and easy to carry around is good as well. A picture of the 3 of mine (the eGo in the pic was my original, I use 650 KGO batteries now)...

Wendy, that's a good kit but I would definitely pay the extra $6.00 for the 1100mah batteries instead of the standard 650mah batteries. That's only $3 per battery for the extra run time you will get with the 1100mah batteries. I have the 1100mah KGO and one of them lasts all day.

An atomizer is basically just a cartomizer without any filler/stuffing in it. It's short and you can look into it and see the coil in it. You drip 2-3 drops of juice into it and then vape until you start getting a burnt taste (usually 4-6 pulls). Then you can pick another juice and drip 2-3 drops of that into it and vape. That way, you can test different juices with one atomizer. If you mix juices in a cartomizer without thoroughly cleaning the cartomizer (by boiling them several times), you get mixed up flavors (because you never completely get one flavor out of the filler material). So, to test 8 different juices with cartomizers, you would need 8 different cartomizers.

You don't HAVE to have an atomizer, but you will WANT one while you're testing juices and trying to find your favorite juice.

I'd also recommend buying a few drip tips if you're going to get an atomizer or any cartomizers. Just like with the atomizer, you don't HAVE to have a drip tip, but you will WANT one (or several).

For atomizers, cartomizers or clearomizers (or any other thing that ends in "izer" :laugh:), get the low resistance (LR) ones. Such as 1.7ohm or 2.0ohm. I think the clearomizers may only go as low as 2.4ohms (not sure), but get the lowest resistance ones. DO NOT GET dual coil anything. Single coil only.

Just curious why not ~~> DO NOT GET dual coil anything. Single coil only. As I use the duel coil. They seem to give a warmer vape and more vaper to me. But like I'm still researching everything cause I have only be vaping 5 months and sneaking around here for about the same amount of time :sneaky::sneaky: Trying to learn as much as I can that way when I'm out and about I can answer people's questions as much as possible. Thank you in advance .
