    Health Canada bans the sale and importing of nicotine juice in Canada. So, consider buying your hardware separately from your e-juice.

    If you need something that looks like a cigarette, consider a KR808D-1. Because the batteries are relatively small, you may find you have to charge them several times a day. But, the 808s are a good compromise between small size and reasonable battery life. In Canada, Happy Vaper sells Bloog kits. Smokeless Image has good prices on an equivalent kit, but I haven't tried ordering from them from Canada, yet. Consider getting at least 1 manual battery with your kit. You have to push a button to vape, which makes it a little less like smoking, but there are fewer ways to make a manual battery die. You also get a slightly easier draw with the manual battery, if that appeals to you. Getting an extra battery with your kit for just in case is a good idea.

    If you're ok with getting something bigger, consider something like a Riva 510 or eGo. Both models are about the size of a Sharpie. The battery life is much, much better than the smaller-sized models. And you can try low-resistance atomizers and cartomizers for more flavor. SmokeTech Dual Coil or Boge LR cartomizers are nice. In Canada, you can get an eGo from NicFitNation. You could also try Liberty-Flights.co.uk.

    Liberty-Flights.co.uk also carries the E-Power 18650. It has the best battery life. It's also the largest, i.e. about the size of a large cigar.

    Consider buying one extra battery with your kit for backup.

    Regarding e-juice. You want to get in 5 good posts, wait for moderator approval, then head over to the Canada forum for options for nicotine juice.

    Hi regulator
    A few days ago I bought a starter kit by HD smoke... it's a bit heavy but the battery lasted 2 days. The taste "robust" is pretty nice 0 nic though.
    I just ordered the Bloog kit from Happy Vaper... as I need the works now...they even let you pick up. Also ordered juice from Northern Vapor.
    Good luck and listen to the vets here... they gave me great advice

    Hey all, thanks for responses. Not so much looking into juices yet. Just a starter e-cig kit with a few cartridges and power supply.

    My main request is a reliable and affordable website that ships to Canada. I'm not looking for some over the top expensive kit, but one that will work well.

    For what it's worth -- whether it's hardware or juice -- I've had nothing but good service and, more importantly, a significant lack of border interference, with MadVapes, Juicy Vapor, Vaperite and Velvet Vapor so far. They make sure us Canucks have the best chance of getting what we ordered. :) There are also a few good vendors within our own borders that carry hardware and nic juice. For hardware only (unless you also want 0-nic juices) Happy Vaper is an excellent place to deal with.

    As for hardware, it depends on what you're looking for. For a slim, cigarette-like profile with decent battery life, the deluxe Volt starter kit from Smokeless Image with the 78mm batteries is probably the most popular right now. Decent battery life, personal charging case, and excellent performance for such a small PV. If you order it though, order it with blank cartomizers, not pre-filled ones, so it won't get stopped at the border.

    If you want a "fat batt" (more cigar-like profile) go with a Joye eGo and some eGo Mega Dual Coil Cartomizers (EMDCC). I'm a huge fan of the EMDCCs myself; huge capacity, great vapor production, great flavour. MadVapes has these. If a tank system is more your speed, check out the eGo-W starter kit from GotVapes. It's a a tried-and-true eGo system with the Sapphire hybrid tank system that apparently works extremely well.

    And of course, check out the Canada forum here. If you're interested in a list of Canadian vendors who carry nic juice any of us will be happy to PM you with what we've got.
