Hey PaporPlas! I've been smoking for 10+ years and want to start living a healthier lifestyle. I did a TON of research and ended up building my own "Starter Kit", but I got a bit of sticker-shock when I went to pay and decided not to place the order and look for a cheaper brand and fewer options. Your post reaffirmed my initial decision to go with a quality product. I just (minutes ago) placed my first e-cig order, thanks to you!
I decided to purchase everything "a la carte" style because I wasn't sure what I would like - do I want to use an atomizer or cartomizer, what flavors of e-Liquid would I like? So many options! I felt that a true starter kit was a bit limiting to one style (the eGo-T with the atomizer + tank).
Here was the final list:
- Two Joyetech eGo-C Twist batteries (with two chargers - 1 for work, 1 for home)
- Four Joyetech eGo-T Atomizers (2 Type A, 2 Type B)
- Two Joyetech eGo-T Cartridges
- Two 5-Pack Boge Refillable 510 Cartomizers
- Four Misc. Drip Tips
- Two 30ml Camel Flavored E-Liquid (1 PG, 1 VG) (I smoke camel analogs, so I think this will be a good transition)
- Five 10ml E-Liquid - Misc. flavors that I am pretty sure I will like.
- Five 5ml E-Liquid - Misc. flavors that I am not so sure on (but I want to try)
How's it going Commuter?
E-cigarettes rock! I'm relatively new to them (2 months) and now I'm down to o-nic ... my nicotine addiction is history
Paporplas, you are one who helped me get here, thank you!
A massive lot of advices over a 43 pages for a new convert: me!

Looking forward to my first vape soon!

Paporplas, you are one who helped me get here, thank you!
it's time to give a shout out to paporplas........wooooooohoooooo!
I guess you can see from my signature banner that i continue to fare well. I'm still immensely enjoying the foray into diy. The same rules that you have founded in this thread also apply there, and, very well i might add. I still have only lost 10ml of e-liquid to yecchhieness and feel i am improving each time i mix. The tobacco flavors -which i have come to find out are harder to mix and nail down- are still slowly improving so my vaping has been enhanced.
Thanks for your thread and it's golden recommendations; they are tried and true as far as i am concerned.

I've got to give a shout out to PaporPlas! Wahhhhhh-hoooooooooo!
I still believe you have one of the best threads on the forum.
Here's myre: the last three posts.
Way to go people! Anytime at all spent vaping is time you are not smoking. Here's the Byrd's simplistic philosophy of vaping:
1.) Anytime spent vaping is better than time smoking.
2.) I drip strong tobacco flavor when the analog craving raises its ugly head.
3.) Even if I had continued to vape and smoke (I was down to 10 analogs a day) I was so far ahead of the curve from just smoking that if I did it the rest of my life it was worth it.
4.) The curve I believe I'm ahead of is first and most importantly better health. The second curve I absolutely know I'm ahead of is the savings. Unless you go wild -and sort of obsessive compulsive- with the the hardware and e-liquid buying vaping should save money.
Again way to go everyone!
Once again a big thank you and sincere appreciationf or PaporPlas and this thread......what else can I say...but....CAW!
