I can’t do this without ECF community.

I have searched and searched for the most suitable e cig for me.

1 Month ago I ordered thesafecig micro , with menthol 18mg cartridge, very good, liked it, but the battery sucks and the cartridge doesn’t last much. So I think it’s better and more suitable for me to try and use e liquid.

I DO NOT know much about e cigs. I am a heavy smoker, I am trying to quit, I need to feel the throat hit, and the menthol in my mouth. I want it to last at least 4-5 hours. I would like to purchase an usb pass though too with it for when I am on the computer.

There are few problems though and few condition for me to order this.
I must order this tomorrow, black Friday, take advantage of the good offers around.
Everything I order, must be from the same website, it’s easier for me because the shipping is a little tricky but if thesagecig did it, other website can too with no problem.
I ask for anyone help to push me and convince me the best and most suitable e cig for me. Last long, good menthol throat hit, and not huge e cigs.
If anyone has any suggestion please be specific, for example: this website ..... Order rivia 510 the starter kit, then you just order the liquid, and change the atomizer every now and then. I need like a small instruction guide on what and where to order. Again, I don’t understand much about e cigs, I get easily confused.

I had a similar thread and got a lot of different suggestion, very useful ones, but not enough. I am still looking around; need a pro to light me the way.
I must resist real cigs and stick with e cigs, help is appreciated.

Sorry for my English, it’s not my first language.

Best of Luck,
Dani.

I would go with the Riva starter kit from liberty flights. E-Liquid and Electronic Cigarette Shop - Category Listings. Make sure you click the 20% off and you cant go wrong with that. It takes about 20 min to get fully used to a manual bat when transitioning from an auto bat. If you like attys I would try out the attys in the kit, but if you want to be "set" try some cartos from CCV Crystal Clear Vaping The resarectors are all I use, but the boge are good as well. As far as juice, if you are just looking for a menthol, lots of venders get menthol right. My personal faves are mystical menthol from want2vape, and cool mint menthol tobacco from viking vapor. That is just my two cents.

Also, I do not use pass though's, so I do not know much about them. The Riva's give you about 6 hours of vape time give or take a few. If you want something that will last longer look at its mah. Think that 100mah last's about an hour, so in theory 1000mah bat should last 10 hours. I have a 1000 mah and I get about a good 7-8 using low resistance cartos. A LR carto will give you a bigger th, as well as your nic level. As a heavy smoker I would suggest trying 24mg, which will also give you a big th. I would also suggest trying a few other strengths if 24mg is to much for you.

Can't really help you. Put your real location in your profile. The mods want real locations. Nobody can suggest a shop without knowing where you are.

And you have to decide. To get the best best vape you need something that is not slim. The model suggested (Riva 510) is not slim. Inferno is an Ego with a custom logo and probably higher price and the same size as a Riva 510. Either will work. I recommend cartomizers and Boge are most popular. i can get 10+ days out of a Boge cartomizer with thin clear juices.

I have an eGo passthrough, you can plug it in and vape while it charges, or unplug and vape. I really love it. With dual coil cartos you get good vapor, good TH and flavor. You can get one here (not sale priced) for $16.99. Just checked, On sale today for $13.99!! No cartos or juice, but if you buy a 5-pack of cartos, you get a free bottle of juice.

Good luck

WELCOME TO THE ECF

You are at the perfect place to do more research. As with what dormouse said, you need to provide more information as your location and EXACTLY what your looking for, before you make your final decision. Without doing so, it makes it hard for people to give you good information and help.

As with you wanting to order everything from one site for convenience. Honestly, it's better to spread out your order from several different vendors to get the best deal, equipment, and satisfaction from your order.

Overall, I hope that you've made up your mind if you want to quit or not. Since that's the determining factor for your success on quitting e-cigs for good. It sounds like your still on the ropes about getting into vaping. This is my assumption since you made another thread with people giving you all sorts of recommendations. So, it seems like it doesn't matter how many of them there are, your not willing to pick one yet.

I suggest that you take some more time and go around the forum and read about various different starter kits, e-liquids, supplies and reviews on them. That will give you a very good idea as to what will work for you.

    The Inferno is an Ego-T. It's hard to recommend Ego-Ts to new vapers because they often have problems with leaking. So, you should consider getting cartomizers to go with your kit. You could either go with: Boge 2.0 ohm cartomizers, Ego Mega Dual Coil Cartomizers (EMDCC), or a Dual Coil Carto Tank. If you go with regular cartos, like the Boge, you might consider getting an Ego Cone for looks. If you like the Ego, you could look at Liberty-Flights.com for good prices (the juice is kinda meh, though).

    ---

    I have 2 slightly off choices that you might be interested in. I figured you might be interested a kit with extra long-lasting batteries. These are both from Eastmall.net, which is located in China and doesn't seem to be participating in Black Friday. Eastmall has good prices, though. Also, both choices include the new Riva-T cartomizer, which is new and I'm only just trying out now. It looks like a MAP tank inside and could be a winner.

    This kit will give you 1100 mAh battery life:


    This kit will give you 3000 mAh battery life. It's not stylish; I'm pairing a platinum tube with a black tank atomizer. The whole assembly is 7 inches long. The battery rattles a bit in the tube. Did I mention you get 3000 mAh battery life with this kit?


    Eastmall sells Dekang liquids, which aren't your best choice. But the best liquids are often found separately from the best kits. $2 for the 5ml bottles (so you don't get stuck with $30 ml of flavours you might hate).

    Hope this helps.

    It's fine. That works too. It costs me $17 to ship to Canada. And your kit has a spare 18650 battery.

    Eastmall manufactures the Indulgence and Riva, so I'm a little surprised you found a better price, but it's all good.

    The Riva-T tank atomizers I suggested are new and it's hard to say right now if there are any issues with them. Eastmall just threw 2 of the LED ones in my last order and they're looking pretty sweet. Easy to fill too, as long as you've got a needle bottle or syringe.
