To the OP, or any beginner:

"I agree very much with this post [the post above, recommending a kGo and five cartomizers], except I would go ahead and get an eGo-class battery with variable voltage instead of fixed voltage. Any one of the batteries out there that fits that description would be fine; I'm not necessarily recommending any particular one. (hehe)
If you just want to start
vaping while you continue exploring the hundreds of batteries/PV's/APV's/VV AV's, tube mods, box mods, bottom feeders, drip atomizers, variable wattage devices, pass-throughs, cartridges, blank cartridges, pre-filled cartridges, cartomizers, XL cartomizers, XXL cartomizers, pre-punched cartomizers, slotted cartomizers, clearomizers, rebuildable atomizers, humungomizers, hi-res, standard-res, low-res atomizers/cartomizers, eGo Mega Dual Coil Cartomizers, the Bulli atomizer, 510 threads, 808 threads, 808-to-510 adapters, 510-510 extensions and what devices need them for what attachments, single coils, dual coils, triple coils, watts, amps, milliamps, mah (milliamp hours), volts, ohms, resistance as it relates to amp draw and battery life, pulse width modulation, buck/boost circuits, LED readouts and menus, IMR batteries, ICR batteries, drain rates, charging rates, battery safety, "protected"batteries, "unprotected" batteries", "ECF Compliance", multiple-battery chargers, cones, trim rings, J-Tanks, the MAP tank, Joyetech tank systems, Joyetech "C" vs. "T" and "A" tank vs "B" tank, "eGo" vs. Ego" vs. "kGo" vs. "Go-Go" vs. "WTF" .................
then you might want to consider what XXXXX just advised you to do. Get a couple of batteries [I just happen to prefer variable voltage ones], a charger (two would be better), a couple of boxes of Boge 2.0 or 3.0 ohm single coil XL cartomizers, a 510 drip tip, and some
juice. Any juice.
If you want a tobacco flavor, get some "Virginia" and/or "Casablanca" from Backwoods Brew. If you want a non-tobacco flavor, get some "Root Beer" or "Peach" from Backwoods Brew.
Optional but highly recommended: one or two Vivi Nova tank/atomizers.
When the stuff comes, charge the batteries, put some juice into a carto, get the polyfill well-saturated, push the button, and vape.
Then explore other options as (and if) you feel the need to".

And a shout-out to Kelesy and Josh, who I talked to for about an hour today on the banks of the Farmington River. They're about to ditch ciggies.
