Okay- I am SOOO new at all this- I have only made one purchase- a few juices from vaporbomb. (on a side note, how long do I let the peanut butter cookies and the watermelon steep?)

SO- Help me out just a bit-

I think I want to buy some carto's- where is the BEST price? I am ALSO thinking about a drip tip- So, I would like to get them both at the same place-

I have a Titan 510- also- where do i get the cheapest batteries for this?

I do need a few things- but need to stay in a pretty tight budget- so, thats why I am asking- I KNOW I can search this out- but I dont know all the companies yet- and havent learned their sale cycles-

I really prefer to ONLY buy sale- or cheap- DOnt get me wrong- I dont want 'backyard crackhead made it' cheap- I want decent product- but good price. LOL


, my list of things I KNOW I need are-

Want to buy NOW-
Carto's
Carts
Drip tip


Want to buy when a really good sale comes-
LOTS of strawberry- (I have tried tasty vapors and Vapor bomb- is there one you love more?) This is about the only one I have tasted so far that I love- But I have only tasted about 4 flavors- LOL
at least 2 more batteries-
More cart's carto's
maybe a car charger- JIC-
some of that blue stuff to restuff my carts. :)

Thanks y'all- and I know there are threads about sales and such- But I havent quite fiqured out the best ones- or the where to look for them- to get the best prices and make sure its not an ad- LOL
 
whoo-hoo!! Thanks! :) I will check it out first thing in the morning :)

Should I try to get all supplies from there- or just what I need right now, and see about batteries later?

and I used to smoke a pack a day- Should I fill like 20 cartomizers for the day? I mean I know that its a 'your milage may vary' type thing- But is that the norm? I work outside alot at the barn, plus I teach the kids, and we are always doing something- most of the time outside- LOL

SO- its just easier for me to have everything made up and be ready for the day- then pop in a new cart or carto (which seems to last longer than a cart) - when I need one- ??

Thanks!!! :)

They have the aluminum drip tips..they are out of delrin. They don't carry carts at all. I can send you some carts..I have some never been used (10) 9 in plastic wraps and one with a cap on it..those are handy. (P.M. me with an address)
I vape all evening (about 5pm to 3 am)..chain vape really. I only need 6 filled cartos and never vape it all. I have 6 flavors going so that's why 6 cartos. I would guess you will want to have 5 cartos ready to go.
Now carts are a different story. I am guess from my 901 days that you will only get about 10 to 15 decent drags per cart. That's why I swiched to cartomizers..I get 3 times that easy.
Welcome to ECF and the women's room!
get your batts on sale at about 1 a month when you can. V4L's batts last a good long time..I like the extra long because I can get 3 to 4 hours of vaping from them..new ones last longer.
If you vape in one place like a computer or your fav chair, get a passthru so you don't need a battery at all.
 
Thank you! :). That really helps a lot! To kinda know what to expect- I guess it comes from always knowing at what time I would run out of cigarettes and need a new pack- I just have to have my crutch- I will be getting some more cartos- I fiqure at least 2 for my waffle- and then 5 or so for my strawberry- at least until I can fiind anothet I like- I do go to sleep with apple- but a cart will work for that- its just a few drags as I wind down watching something on the dvr-

Welcome to The Woman's Room! It's hard when your new, I just bought a crap ton of stuff this week for me & the bf. I did get us each a passthru, I am like MK I chain vape till bed time. I have three batteries to my m403 and I go thru 'em all in a day sometimes twice. I can not wait to check out all the different things I got, and my Joye510, I hear the batteries are so so, but hey I'll have my super mini to back me up too. That passthru is gonna be a life saver tho!
 
THanks :) I have thought about a pass through- but its going to take some .... mental work.. I guess is how to say it- for some reason, it being tethered reminds me of the oxygen my grandmother was on- I KNOW its no differnt from my normal 510- But I hate admiting I am a crackhead- LOL (Not really- just for cigarettes, or vaping now- LOL) I know- I overthink things too much! LOL


*headed off to the deals and steals threads* :)
 
okay- I went to V4L and clicked on blank cartomizers- there were 2 kinds and one specified it was for a kD808 (??) is there a certain thing I am looking for to fit my 501? And I saw the batteries but none of them said 510- I HATE online shopping- I need to SEE what I am buying-

Otherwise I will screw up- This is going to be what kills the vaping thing for me- buying the wrong stuff- and I SOOOO dont wana go back to analogs- I am even vapin some HORRRRIIIIIDDDD watermelon right now, just because I am having to wait to get more strawberry- but dont wanna go and get an analog- I even had a dream last night that I was surrounded by my family - all smoking analogs- and although I really didnt want one- I DID- Mostly because I was having to vape the watermelon, and it has a soapy aftertaste for me- so, I was trying to sit there and vape what basicly tastes like dishsoap, (There were bubbles coming out in the dream) and tellin everyone in the family I was loving it, because I refused to admit it sucked, and trying to hide the 'soap bubbles' as they came out. . ROFLMAO!!

anyway- I know I am beating a dead horse with these questions, but I really am confused. LOL

I was going to tell you that V4L only sells hardware for the 808 - not the 510. One thing I have learned since I started is that it can be difficult to get hardware and juice from the same vendor. I find that those that have the best juice are mainly "juice people." They may sell some hardware, but that is not their forte, so their prices are not typically the best. Same goes for the hardware folks. Those that have great prices don't always have the best juice. You are like me -I prefer "one-stop-shopping" - especially when you have to pay shipping.

For hardware, I would recommend either MyVaporStore or GoodProphets. I have ordered from both and gotten great products and customer service. I checked the items you are looking for and one has better prices on some items and the other has better prices on the other items. You would just need to price out the order and see which is cheaper.

Just a mention about the car charger. All you need is a USB car charger. My car charger for my iPhone is a USB hub, so when I want to charge my ecig batts, I just unplug the iPhone charging cable and insert my ecig charging cable. They are pretty cheap at MVS, but you may want to check Target/WalMart. You might be able to pick up one even cheaper.

Juices, if you don't know what you like, you may want to start with companies that sell sample packs so you don't end up with large quantities of juice that you don't like (not to mention having paid for it). I really like Velvet Vapors. She has 5-bottle sample packs (you can select blend, flavor and nic level individually for each bottle in your sample pack. Its like a build-your-own-sampler). Some companies sample packs are only offered in one nic level and not all flavors are offered as samples. FreedomSmokeUSA also has samples and I like their juice.

I have ordered 3 juices from MVS (the ones made the in US). I LOVE the cola. The other two I got were tiramisu and coffee espresso. I just thought the espresso/coffee flavors in both were just too rich for me (might have been okay if I watered it down with plain PG or VG, but didn't want to mess with it). But, I gave them to a friend and she loves them.

FSUSA does sell a good bit of hardware and their prices aren't too bad. You could price out the hardware on their site and see how it compares to MVS and GP. I have made lots of orders from FSUSA and they also treat their customers very well.

Honeyville Vapors is a new juice company. They don't have a large selection of juices, but their waffles, blueberry muffin and apple pie are all divine! Their tiramisu is good, although again, a little strong for my taste. Same with their caramel macchiato.

I understand the desire for one stop shopping, but if I have learned anything, it is juice and hardware are different animals (with the exception of V4L, but they are strictly 808 hardware) and I prefer to purchase them from different vendors (generally - I will pick up a bottle of juice if I think it sounds good when I'm getting hardware).

MVS has a coupon code for 5% off "ECF5"
I don't know of a sale that FSUSA is currently running. They might, but haven't heard of one recently. You might want to peek in their suppliers page and see if they posted one.
I can't remember if I had a coupon code for my recent GP purchase or not.

Okay, I think that about covers it. If I missed something or you have another question, just ask!
 
Thanks Cat!!
so I am not crazy- ROFLMAO!

I will head to those two stores- and I DID find a carcharger thing with a USB on it- I dont know where it came from, maybe a cell phone charger kit that was universal or something- I found it last week when I was cleaning the bedroom, I put it to the side thinking 'hmmmmm that might come in handy one day- if I can fiqure out what it goes to' LOL


I got waffle, strawberry and peanutbutter cookie, plus watermelon from Vapor bomb this week- I just got a small strawberry- I could kick myself for that- I think they all need to seep or something, I am just getting a weird aftertaste out of them.

Thanks again for your help- and I am exactrly the same way- one stop shopper- LOL walmart is my friend. even if I do hate them. LOL
 
OH CRAP- WTF is the OHM? and how do I know what I need? where do I find that? I am starting to get annoyed- Seriously- I just want to quit smoking and I feel like I am trying to learn freakin greek. IT doesnt help that my kids are bound and determined to send me to a looney bin this morning- LOL

Give the Vapor Bomb 3-4 weeks before you give up on it. I hated their English toffee at first, threw it in a drawer
and took it out a month later when I was desperately waiting on a shipment from another company.... It's now my all day vape! :laugh: I've learned to order way ahead - and I also buy their flavorings cheap and mix my own.
It's trial and error at first. And THANK GOD for PIF! :)

Velvet Vapor is very good. She also has good sample packs of 5 bottles (3, 6 or 10ml). You can choose from any flavor in her catalog and select PG/VG blend and nic level for each bottle in the pack. I really like that, since too many companies only offer samples in one nic level or if they do have sample packs where you can pick flavors, you may not be able to choose from any flavor in their catalog and have to have the same nic and PG/VG for every bottle in the pack. Her flavors are excellent. Velvet vanilla, butterscotch and French Vanilla Latte are my favorites.
