Greetings vaporers,

I need anyone\everyone’s help and input again regarding the below questions:

1. What is the best mod I should get, the Silver Bullet, the GG something, the
Chuck, etc.?
2. What adapters should I get for this device, should I use regular carts or
cartomizers?
3. Is it easy to fill carts if I go that route as the previous device I used, used
cartomizers?
4. What site is the best place to order this, of course the faster the shipping the
better but I prefer quality and site security vs. just being fast.
5. In regards to juice, where is the best place to get full VG juice? The taste isn’t
too much of a concern since I was used to the awful taste of cigarettes.
6. It’s been 2 months since I smoked analogs, so if I choose to go a nicotine route,
which Mg would be best to get, I used to smoke Marlboro Lights.

Sorry for the long post but wanted to try to ask all the right questions based on the ton of information I have reviewed, watched, etc.

Thanks everyone for all your help :D

My opinion only (take it for what its worth)

1. Reo box mod or GGTS with AVS. Those are 2 of the best reviewed, but more expensive mods--if you want to go cheaper I hear good things about the wetbox.
2. For the REO get low resistance 801 atties for 3v , for the GGTS low resistance 901 atties or HV 901 atties for 6v vaping. The wetbox uses 510 or 808 cartos depending on the model. You wuold also need batteries for these. I like high drain 18650s for 3.7 in the REO or GGTS. The wetbox uses 14500 and is only a 3.7v device.
3. Both the REO and the GGTS with AVS are easy to fill and use--both have juice resivoirs.
4. reosmods, or vaporkings.com for the GGTS.
5. No clue about full VG--lots of people seem to like avejuice.com
6. I was a light smioker and use 24 mg.

I am sure you will get lots of opinions on this controversial topic :)

If you're stepping up from the kr8(cartomizers) as I had, the Ego and it's variants use cartos, as well. I myself got a wetbox which I got in the 510 guise. It also has an 808 version. I am very happy with it as far as the flavor, throat hit, and mostly, the battery life. The biggest advantage, and the reason I stepped up to the wetbox, was the fact that I got tired of constantly carrying the extra batteries around along with a few cartos. This allows me to vape for a little while, give a squeeze on the juice bottle, and go right back to vaping without having to mess with anything. And no more filling cartomizers unless I get a new flavor and want to use a new cart. The battery life is fantastic. I pop one in at the start of the day and place it in the charger at night. I am rotating two right now, so I always have one fresh and ready to go. This mod is very liberating!
I am saving for a REO, however...

Honestly, for us to really accurately answer your question of which mod we need more information.
How much are you willing to spend?
Do you want juice reservoir functionality?
What kind of battery life are you looking for?
What voltage are you looking for?
Is form factor an issue, and if so how big are you willing/wanting to go?

If we knew those things it would be easier to sort the mods and find one that would suit your tastes.

As for the other questions.

What adapters? Depends on the mod, though most of em come threaded 510, some of em have the option of choosing from a few different threadings when you order.

Is it easy to fill carts? Easier and quicker than filling cartomizers, though you'll have to do it more often than cartomizers. Cartos are still an option with mods of just about any threading.

Full vg juice? I'm not sure your reasoning for wanting full VG. Honestly there are several sites out there that allow you to pick your mixture. (i think tastyvapor is one of em)
I recommend a 70/30 vg/pg mixture. Gives just the right throat hit for me, and nice plumes of vapor.

Nic strength? I always tell people to start with 24, and if you're worried it'll be too much just buy a doubler or buy some Glycerin from Wal-mart to cut it down with. It's worth it to start high and experiment to find a level you're happy with, rather than starting too low. You can always cut down juice, but increasing nicotine levels is tricky.

There are 3rd generation mods out there now , they are regulated and adjustable , the advantage is that you can tune the voltage to the atomizer NO fixed voltages !

You do not rely on the battery voltage , the regulator controls the voltage for you , it is always the same hit and voltage NO battery droop or voltage drop off .
