Best e-cigs?

[lghtnsurf]

Ok so I'm posting around asking my general questions and whatnot and I realized the SE GOLD I ordered probably isn't going to be anywhere near what I wanted. I wanted some genuine esmokers to point me in the direction of:

-Top Brand/E-cigs (Excluding the 510, I know all about it)
-Best Place to order a few small (10ml) eliquids
-Best Kits for the Ecigs or brands mentioned above.

So far I've been looking at the 510, some vapor kings, and a blu88.

I don't want anything terribly big and I would like something that has a nice look too it.

Do you have your heart set on a traditional style PV? If not I'd say that any juice fed big battery mod is one of the best. But those can be pretty pricey. Don't sweat yourself about the SE Gold, I made the same mistake back in the day, and if nothing else it's various and sundry problems led me to this forum and helped me to stick with vaping. If you're at all handy, you may even want to look into making your own mod. There are numerous threads in the mod section that can show you step by step how to go about making one, and its also dirt cheap to do so. Hope that helps.

eh Yea I'd liek to keep it traditional. The more I read about how great the 510 is and all I realize that'll probably be my next purchase but idk yet. I'd really liek som eother peoples input that isnt in reguards to a 510 or 901

If you truly want to be satisfied with battery life and performance I would suggest an ego. I started with blu, then 510, now an ego. I use lr atty's on my ego and love it. I still use Joye 510 atty's on my ego as well as 901 atty's with an adapter. can't beat a bigger battery with a good atty.

I really like my KR808D-1 2-piece from NHaler, and a similar KR808D-1 package I got for a friend from Vapor4life (what they call their VaporKing). The standard batteries result in a cigarette form factor that's about 4-1/2" total length. They also have extended run batteries that add a chunk to the length, while still a cig form factor.

If you're away from power during the day, a kit with a PCC lets you get about 4 recharges before you'll run out of power (PCC contains a small battery of its own, room for one more e-cig battery, and room for a couple of cartomizers).

ok I'm gonna check those out. I'm also lookign at the joye 306 or 306a

 

[Mr.Self_Destruct]

The 306a is a vaping beast. I tried it on my blu. I found it ran too hot to get any flavor from juices. I could only taste intensely flavored juices.

 

[lghtnsurf]

I couldnt tell if that was good or bad

I would liek a blu but the 306 seems nice too, bt I cant find any links to buy a kit for cheap.

Well, yeah kind of mixed signals there. It produces a ton of vapor. The vapor is very warm but the flavor is lost. I did not find it to be enjoyable.

I second the eGo recommendation. Even with the mega batteries it's only as big as a cigar.

When I first started vaping I also wanted something that resembled an analog. I started off with an M variant and the battery life sucked. Then I got an eGo. After a few days with the eGo, the size didn't bother me at all. I went on to order The Chuck which is flat out huge. Many of us go through this type of transition as we become more comfortable with vaping and more disillusioned with smoking.

The problem is that any cigarette sized battery just doesn't pack the life to make vaping as convenient as it is with an eGo or a mod. My mega eGo batteries last around 14-15 hours and they charge in 3-4 hours. The batteries I'm using in my Chuck are supposed to last 2-4 days.

If you're absolutely determined to get something cigarette sized, I'd say go with the 510. The reason being that you can upgrade later to an eGo or one of the mods and still use the same attys, carts, and/or cartomizers.

+1 IMO. My v4l kr808d-1 is my best friend. Fairly cheap and great batt life. Being 2 piece = less work and that's good for a lazy man, like myself

The 510 is, IMO, overrated. I have tons of them sitting around unused since I started using the VaporKing last winter. Do what you want, but don't give up on the one you have. People like to bash Smoking Everywhere, but that is largely because of price rather than performance. Give it a chance.

I've got a totally different idea. Whatever you choose, you'll need (or want) a passthrough, regardless. Why don't you get your passthrough first to vape one while you do more research into the different brands/models of e-cigs. IOW, take your own sweet, merry time.

There is a passthrough for only $29.95 called the Janty USB eGo passthrough. You get a full eGo (no cone) e-cig. While you are lounging about at home or at work (if you have a desk area?), you can vape that while it is charging. That's right, you vape on it while it is charging. After it charges up, you unplug, and you have about 6 hours of vape in the new charge.

This idea will at least give you 12 hours a day vaping while you figure out what you want in a very cost-effective way. Oh also, this passthrough is warrantied for 3 months, as all Janty batteries are. Just a thought. Anyway, GL in your search. Here's the PT link if you want to see it.

+2
I almost gave up on vaping before discovering the kr8 (started with 510) and IMHO the vapor king kr8 bats are the best and their premiums are the best cartos.

you decide

Yea I allready checked that site out, Does the offer sound good though, It seems liek theres a lot fo rmy money, Just curious about the thoughts of the actuall ecig

 

[suddenly]

I have tried so many that I have lost count. I always come back to my 510 as my fav. I get mine at cignots. Nicest ladies to deal with. They also have good juice.

 

[lghtnsurf]

Ok so I was also just checking out the DSE084? People seem to like that?

Now that I'm getting a 510 and stuff I was curious if anyone had any links to great prices stuff? I find them sellign ecigs everywhere but they all seem liek dif kits at dif prices and it throws me off.

Lastly: Whats the difference betwwen empty carts and cartomizers? I want to use ejuices or whatever to flavor my ecigs but idk what the difference is and what carts or cartimizers will fit certain devices?
