The 510 led me straight back to analogs. Constant fiddling, modding, tweaking this, adjusting that, removing the wicking from the atty's, which cartridge filler is best, need a high voltage mod to get correct vapor out of the 510, oops, now need a low-res atty, no the voltage is to high, now we need a high voltage atty. Wait, now we need a variable voltage mod to find our "sweetspot" with the atty's and the juice *Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaak*
If you think about it... I think it'd be a safe bet that half of everything ever written on this board has been how to get the 510 to work. Either on the cart side, or the atty side, and now the carto side.
Heck, even the ego-T is just the newest coping mechanism for the 510 tech.
but failure is almost a guarantee with a standard 510 kit. Within a few days he's gonna be cutting up blue foam, or emptying pyramid tea bags, or adjusting a ring on a cartomizer, or trying in vain to align a cartridge correctly with an atty.
Start with an ego-T. Fill the tank. Pop it in. Vape. No mods, no fuss.
Not much different than a standard 510. Bigger battery. Same button.
If you want to go to cartomizers/clearomizers/fluxomizers/(x)omizers, you've got the
510 fitting, and a much longer lasting (both in duration and in service life) battery....
all for a few dollars more than a 510 kit would have cost.
I think this "you should start out with a 510 as a newbie" meme has been started by retailers that want to sell people 2 kits.
Why start out with certain failure?
That's exactly how I feel just couldn't put the words together that well so I didn't bother to try. The more simple something is the more likely the people that don't want to hassle with stuff will give it a chance.
