After agonizing over what kit to get and searching for the best price along with the right juices to order and how much to spend before I find out if it is going to be for me I came up with a solution once I saw what all was really needed.

You don't need to buy a whole kit to see if this if for you. In hindsight perhaps the cheapest way would be to purchase just a passthrough, an atomizer, empty or prefilled carts, liquid or not if buying prefilled carts although I would suggest empty carts and a bottle of e-juice and your ready to vape.

A passthrough is a E-Cig with a USB cable attached to it to provide power from your pc USB port. With that in mind all you need is an atomizer and carts and you have a E-Cig for about $25 if your using a m401 or 510 style. That should give you the best E-Cig experience anyway since it seems to me that my E-Cigs really hit well when using the passthrough to power them.

If you find that you do want to continue then you can stay like that or build yourself one from parts that you can carry around, you can get batteries and atomizers cheap enough. Doing it that way really won't cost more, you can build a spare E-Cig for under $20 easily. I realize that this won't be for everyone, but for someone looking to try it out as cheap as possible that's one way to try it out without spending tons of cash.

If I had only known what I know now, I would have purchased a four AA battery box for a few pence, used a momentary button from an old stereo and used a couple of other odds and ends laying around to make an atty connector.. used the rechargeable batteries and charger that I already had anyway, purchased a TW 5 pack of 801 atties and a few carts and a bottle of juice and I think the whole lot wouldn't have been much more than about £30. Virtually all the cost being the juice and the atties.

Yes, I also priced it out and it is cheaper than buying a kit, the biggest expense is the Ecig kit itself. You can get a passthrough for $10-$15, a pack of Carts for $5, and an atomizer for under $10. That's all you need to get a good feel if this is going to be something you want to pursue without a major investment and if you do like it which I imagine you will, you already have a passthrough which most people find indispensable once they use one.

Of course you can do it even cheaper than that if you have friends that have juices and a few spare carts to loan you to try out.

1 901 Passthrough, 1 AC-USB adaptor, 1 901 atomizer and 1 bottle of cheap Dekang juice and you're all set for a week assuming you're near an AC outlet $30 delivered from Heavens Gifts. Yes, some kits on special offer would be initially cheaper but then you only get 5 carts which would last you 2 days maximum.That's also pretty much what I'm running on while I'm at home. Magnum with friends and DVP9 when out and about
