Ego are for noobs, I have an old school lava tube, and a GG for special occasions. Go for a real APV.

Real as opposed to imaginary?

My two cents and that is probably what it is worth. Since you are starting from scratch, I would get two entirely different PVs. Personally, I would go with a Vision 1300 mah Spinner, which sells for $24.95 or maybe the great deal someone else showed you up above. Remember to buy a charger, if you don't already have one that will work on what you get.

For the 2nd device, I would get on the waiting list for one of these*. You'll see a place to signup on the linked page. That is a killer deal for these PVs. Once it becomes available, you will also want to order batteries. As someone mentioned up above, RTD Vapor has the best prices that I have seen.

Anyway, that is what I would do. :)

* EDIT: Here is the link to the 2nd device. For some reason whenever I paste it in, it turns out as a bunch of ...... http://www................../Empire-Style-K100-Telescope_p_176.html

Ok, it is doing it here too. This must be a forum "enhancement". "Hoosier vapes" is where I am trying to send you and the Empire Style K100 for $35 is the page I was trying to show you.

Not sure if being funny...

Or really really stupid.

eGos may just be one of the most important things in a vapers arsenal. I own a VAMO, 4 mechs and a whole lot of RBAs, but never run out of use for my Twists or eGo-T.

Go brag about your "real APVs" in the picture thread, and prepare to feel very bad about yourself. A Lava and a GG? Pssh. Plenty of the guys own things you probably have never even heard of or seen before. I just hope you dont throw your GG away when you see Chi-Yous and Caravelas and iHybrids crowding one picture. And every single one of them will tell you an eGo is important to have.

Everybody knows that if you don't have an ego, you're just an id



if you don't understand, google it

This is a great thread. Thanks to everyone for taking the time out to give me such excellent advice and recommendations.. I have looked at all the links you've sent me, and there are some awesome, mouth-watering, selections!!! So this is what I finally decided to do: I agree that everyone should have an ego, they are versatile, easy, and small, so it's great for work. However, I am also ready for something a little bigger and a lot more durable.

I stated my budget for this paycheck was 150 dollars. That is still true, however, by May 1st, I can spend more - probably in the area of 300 dollars. I also wanted a little extra time to really research your recommendations and make the most informed choice I could. I ordered another 1000 mah twist to use for the next two weeks (and for backup). I also got a nice selection of juice from HHV, a bridgeless atty for dripping and spent the rest of the money on Ego starter kits for both my parents. They are two smokers who have loved using my Egos and might be ready to give up the cigs forever so I wanted to give them the absolute best chance to do that. The kit was a great price - $40 and it comes with two 650 Mah Batteries, a USB charger and a wall charger, and two CE4 clearos. It even comes with a nice case. Can't beat that with a stick. I picked up extra atomizer heads and they will be set, each with their own kit. For the next two weeks, while I'm dreaming of what new and awesome PV I'm going to buy, I'm going to spend the time teaching my parents how to vape. I feel like I'm saving two lives.

As for me, I have two weeks to find an APV. I love my Ego and I'm glad that I re-bought the 1000mah twist. But in addition to that, by waiting the two weeks I'll have more time and twice the budget to find a larger, more durable device. I am seriously looking at the Vamo, since it got so many great recommendations. I like the idea of using those replaceable batteries. As for mods and RBAs and such, that is definitely in my future. I am quite handy and worked with computer hardware for a good many years. Before I even think about that, however, I need more time and experience with vaping. I still haven't found my all day vape yet.. I'm hoping Heather's will remedy that.

So, I'll update the thread when I've decided what kind of APV I'm getting in two weeks. Keep those suggestions coming - I do research each and every link and appreciate your extremely valuable experience. My journey into vaping was rocky, I won't lie. Its a lot of learn, a lot of equipment, a lot of trial and error. I wouldn't have gotten through it without the amazing members of ECF. I've quit smoking almost two weeks now, and I give all the credit to you. Thank you.

Good choice to stick with the ego's, I have 3 1000mah twists.
I did A LOT of research on mods, and ended up buying a Vamo 2 in SS.
I love it! Has all the options you could want, and it's really nice to be able to use 18650 or 18350 batteries. With the bigger battery you have tons of capacity for long time vaping between charges, or you can use the smaller one for a more compact rig, portability.
And the price is sweet! Got mine from SmokTek, their CS is the bomb.
