If I am just starting out, what do you suggest I start with. I have heard that disposable atomizers are better for a newbie because its not as complicated, but rebuildables are cheaper. I purchased a vaporizer from Vapin Plus and am not sure what kind of atomizer it is. Do I have to clean it? or just throw it away? Any light anyone could shed on this would be really helpful.
Disposable vs. Rebulidable

I like the overall experience of RBAs to disposable. You just could clean some liquid that gets places it shouldnt be if your starting. I don't think youd ever throw it away unless it breaks completely on you.
Hi! 
There are a few types of rebuildable "tanks".
I would never recommend a throwaway clearomiser... not when you can buy ones that use a replaceable atomizer inside it.
A full rebuildable atomizer will work out cheapest and best in the long run. (They are mostly big and advanced)
If you have bought the Vapin plus eGo with a disposable tank, use it until it's served it's purpose and then look elsewhere. Buying lots of these time and time again is simply wasting money i.m.o.

I saw on their website that they sell 4 pack atomizers. So, my understanding is that I should save the tank and pitch the atomizer? It just seems weird to purchase a tank and purchase separate atomizers.
Disposable attys will work rather well, and can be cleaned with a vodka soak, or just vaping some unflavored VG or PG. These days if you check the vendors bargain bins and clearance counters they can be inexpensive. They are easier to setup and use.
The re-burnables will last longer, be more expensive initially but cheaper in the long run. They also can be built with various wicks and resistance.

Hi and welcome,
Is this what you bought?
What nic level and flavour of juice/s do you have?
How much did/do you smoke now and how long have/had you been smoking?
Have fun

For newbies, I always recommend starting small and moving up. A. The whole "saving money" is a myth for most people and B. There are a lot of variables with picking an RBA/RDA and if you don't even know what you like; why would spend good money for something you may hate.
Try a bunch of disposables........as many as you can to start. Try top coil, bottom coils, attys with replaceable coils, different brands and etc to get a feel for what you like and why and then spend your money wisely and buy what you know you will like. You could take a first crack with an IGO-W. It is a dripper but good practice and you can pick them up for $12-30 plus supplies. Do some reading and video watching and learn about battery safety before upgrading that too.
A lot of people like the rebuildables and I do too but after 2 years of vaping, not everyone is solely using an RDA/RBA. I hate to tinker with stuff and even though it is easy.......it is still more of a PITA to me than just grabbing my ProtankII and an extra coil and extra battery in case something goes wrong and rolling. I don't take the RDA/RBAs out with me almost ever.

Yes it is! they are a local company so I thought I would start with them. They don't give out the pg/vg of their juice but it is all 1.6% in a 15ml. They have very standard flavors and I haven't really ventured elsewhere. I started using this prob 2 months ago. I smoked prob a pack every other day for the past 4 years and a friend introduced me to 21st Century. I liked them, but I couldn't get attached to them. I decided to try this and I like this way better. I like the amount of vapor I get compared to an electronic cigarette. I have seen a lot of "higher end" systems out there and I was wondering where this one would compare.
It's actually more simple than it seems. IF they are selling throwaway clearomisers (the tanks) then buying them is an unnecessary waste of money. They will work, and it's all cheaper than smoking, but the value for money is almost certainly bad.
In the UK (so it may be different elsewhere) a disposable clearomiser is about £3.00. A rebuildable one (this is NOT a proper rebuildable atomizer, which is different...) is £4. The replacement atomizer section/part is £1.00
I notice Vapin plus charge $9.99 for one clearomiser. It doesn't state if you can replace the atomizer section, but presumably you can't.
So, it they last a week, it's going to cost you $500 a year. If you buy a few rebuildable clearomizers and change the head, that would be around $100 instead.
I would say, on financial grounds, they are pretty bad then.
If their website sells attys for that tank, then yes, keep the tank and replace the atty as needed. I would dub the system you got as a beginner ego blisterpack starter kit. Completely fine to use as you're starting up. I managed to quit smoking myself with a blister pack and if not for this forum I may have even just stuck with that kind of set up for the indefinite future. However, reading so much about everything out there caused a pretty severe case of "shinyitis" in which I started buying any shiny new vape gear I could find. I'm okay with the money spent though, as this has become a hobby for me. I love to tinker. If you like to tinker, look into more. If not and you just want a cigarette replacement and the kit you posted does that, stick with that one. I do recommend buying another one for back up though.
