Okay, so after lurking on this forum for almost a year now and gathering a suitable amount of information, i finally decided to buy my first ecig and give quitting analogs a shot. A quick rundown of what i ordered, all from cloudsofvapor.
I got the premium starter kit, which contains
2 650mah Joyetech eGo Twist Batteries with variable voltage
1 Black Smoktech eGo Dual Coil Cartomizer that holds up to 5ml.
1 Vision eGo Clearomizer
1 Imist eGo Tank system with cartridge
1 2.5ml Smoktech eGo DCT Tank
and a butterscotch eliquid sample
I figured this would be a good kit to start out with as it has multiple tank systems i can try out first and see what i like the best. I would have preferred a 650 mah and a 1000 mah battery but sadly there wasnt an option for that.
On top of this kit i got
3 of the 10ml containers
COV ego tank with air control (i know it says for advanced users, but i feel as if ive absorbed enough information from lurking enough to know how to operate it, as im also a mechanically inclined person.)
12 mls of cherry tobacco
10 mls of bobas bounty
12 mls of carmel tobacco
to get me started.
Can you guys suggest anything else i might need to start my ecig journey? i feel like i have most bases covered until i can get my personal opinions on stuff.
Over time, you will figure out exactly what
you need. Everyone has their own personalized vaping kit of some sort. As others have said, paper towel, napkins, or old t-shirt rags are a must. I also keep a bottle of 90% isopropyl alcohol around. It makes for easy cleaning of threads, attys, cartos, drip tips, etc.
Some juices taste great right out of your mailbox, others really do need more time to develop and can change significantly- you need to taste them to know which ones will need to steep, but it's usually the more complex ones that need the most time.
One way to speed things up is to put it somewhere warm (not extremely hot), like a bowlful of hot tap water for an hour or so (seal the bottle in a ziplock first to prevent water from damaging your labels), and shake it up every day while it steeps. If you are the gender that wears one, bra-steeping also works wonders- go ahead and giggle, it seriously works! I have a few ejuices that have needed up to two weeks steeping in the past be perfect in five days using these methods.
I'm a guy, and even I'm now considering bra-steeping. I figure If I grab myself a 34b, I can have enough room to keep a bottle steeping in each side, and store some paper towels...which also come in handy. I'll just look like a thin lad with disproportionately size man boobs.
Better yet... Maybe I'll just let my wife carry 'em around.
