Hi,

I'm a pretty heavy smoker of Marlboro Reds and I just tried an e-cig for the first time. It's a Blu disposable, and I found it disappointing, mainly because I don't get any throat hit. It's supposed to have 24mg, so it's either lower than advertised or I need something stronger.

I've been looking a lot online and there are so many options I don't even...
However, for the moment I set my eyes on this:
The Echo Electronic Cigarette Starter Kit - $33.00
with the 1300mAh battery

and this:
7 Leaves Tobacco Flavored USA Made E-Liquid - $4.50
with either 30 or 36mg/ML and with Full (Low VG) Mix.

It seems like a decently priced solution and the easiest to use, except going for cartridges or disposables.

Some questions:

1. I understand cartomizers need to be changed from time to time. What happens if I can't find these exact cartomizers? Will others work? How do I know which work and which don't?
2. Are these "low resistance" cartomizers? I've read on this forum that low resistance ones are recommended for a good throat hit. How can I tell which are LR and which not?
3. Any one used these and can compare them with Marlboro Reds?
4. Any other solution you'd recommend that really packs a throat hit and links to where I can get them?

Thank you.

i still smoke marb reds and vape to curb the habit a little.

For the most part vaping high nicotine juices will never resemble a cigarette in that amazing instant head rush/good feeling you get from a cigarette. All that seems to happen is you get dizzy/light headed over time. As far as throat hit, you can get some satisfying sensations almost identical of a cigarette with high PG and Nicotine concentrated juices, but it feels more like your inhaling burnt smoke and isn't too pleasant.

In my opinion, vaping resembles hookah more then it does smoking a cigarette.

When I first started vaping i tried to find a combo to most resemble a cigarette, and during that time I did not enjoy vaping to much. Once i treated vaping as its own entity, is when i started enjoying it far more.

welcome to efc. it looks like a decent setup. so long as you enjoy vaping with it. there are no tobaccos that tastes like a real stinkie, so i would also order maybe a fruit or a coffee flavor. a lot of companys offer trial sizes. one of my favorite vendors is crystal canyon vapes. they offer sample sizes, and use discount code "save 20" for your 20 percent off order till friday. . i would order the larger batteries. the mah stands for hours the battery goes without a recharge. an 1100 mah will last 11 hours, the 1300 mah will last you 1300 hours....the 650 would not last you through the workday without changing them out. best of luck and enjoy your vape.

welcome to ecf to you as well. i have a suggestion for you. when you get the urge for your marlboro, chain vape your high nic juice for 5-10 minutes. if you still crave it, light it up....it will happen naturally that as you vape more, you will have fewer smokes. also, dont kick yourself over the ones you do smoke.....congrats to yourself for the ones you didn't light up. best of luck on your journey.
