This is what i plan to order from provape

Black ProVari™ Variable Voltage V2.5
2x 18650 batteries
Extension end cap
Charger

Then from another place
2x dbox puritank

The problem i have is e-juice and if i am missing anything.

When it gets here i just want to be done with analogs.

Would have put this in the right place but need to post 5x in here to join others on topics and ask for help in the right places anyways i will tell you a bit about myself I have been smoking for 14 years and I am 26 and live in westland, MI I want to switch to e-cigs for the many health reasons plus it costs less if I don't go crazy lol.

I am not picky so i will most likely be fine with most flavors I have smoked kools, camels, marlboro, pall mall all in menthol and currently smoke newports and marlboro non-menthol and I like them all but can only smoke newports long term without changing, I also like most fruit type cigars and flavored wraps like vanilla since I did smoke something else before.

Any help would be appreciated and thanks in advance.

Since you seem to be starting on the higher end of things, I'd recommend two sampler packs of liquid, both from Halo: the tobacco sampler pack, and the menthol sampler. You are bound to find a few flavors you like, and Halo sells quality liquid.

Thanks I will look up halo and do research, also forgot to ask about pg and vg and what is the difference between the 2.

Hi

I would also suggest a few other delivery systems to try. They don't have to be expensive, a couple of clearos, cartos, whatever (just as long as they have 510 threading, eGo threading would need an adaptor). That way you aren't stuck if you don't like the puritank for some reason.

Thanks for the tip but I hate messing with lots of things so I plan to get use to it even if I don't like it plus I seen many reviews on that tank to be able to adjust it as I need to suit my needs.

Pg (propylene glycol) provides more flavor and throat hit
Vg (vegetable glycerin) make more vapor
Much of that is subjective though. Cons: People sometimes are a sensitivity to pg (although one can also be sensitive to vg and flavorings); vg is thicker and can gunk up wicks and coils.
For just starting out, I suggest 50/50 or a mix of 50/50 samples and samples with other ratios. I usually vape 70pg/30vg, but I have 80/20 and 50/50 around for variety.

Could care less about vapor so that tells me I should start on 60/40 then work my way up to 100% pg if I need more flavor and throat hit.

Does anyone know of a good vanilla e-juice

I use the Vanilla flavor from Dripeez - https://natural-eliquid.com/store/index.php

This vendor specializes mainly in fruit flavors, but also have some spicey flavors such as Vanilla and Cinnamon. My favorite flavor from here is Golden Apple. I like it alone, or self-mixed with either a little Cinnamon or Rum.

This vendor uses all-natural, all-organic flavorings. Your choice in Pg/Vg ratios and nicotine concentration...and choice of glass or plastic bottles with drippers. Dripeez has quickly become my favorite e-juice vendor.

A good vanilla is hard to find, just doesn't seem to be a good a stand alone flavor to me. I went with a tobacco liquid and a vanilla liquid to start and both bottles after 3 months are still almost full. Ry4 is one of my favorite flavors still, vanilla caramel tobacco. Every vendors has their own version some good some bad, the original dekang ry4 is always good though.

Is that the provari mini? If not it will be a fair sized device, but not a bad thing for some I prefer an ego sized for when I'm out. Wouldn't be a bad idea to grab a protank, like all clearos there is always one downside but it gives a good vape and is worth having.

I think my hardest thing will be finding the flavor I use daily, random flavors I will use just as a pick me up like fruit types and coffee ect.

Yes I plan to have the full size provari and I don't like that the protank doesn't have a changeable tip and have heard some bad stories about it leaking, I have a 5.5 screen on my phone size don't bother me it is reliability I am looking for.
 
I have several flavors and I have found it most helpful to have several clearomizers (I use a couple Kangors and iclear16's) each filled with a different flavor. I then rotate them when I get tired of a flavor. That way you won't have to empty out and wash your tank every time you want to try a different flavor.

Note: I use a 510 to ego adaptor purchased from provape to fit the clearomizers on my provari.

Yeah finding the right flavor is by far the hardest thing about starting. You should order a bunch of samples from the popular vendors. Waiting a week and spending 20 bucks on a bunch of ejuice you hate sucks but its really the only way to Do it. I like rawr vapor personally. Besides that everything sounds good.

With the tank I plan to get I can just drip instead of fill the tank and clean it really fast to test another flavor.

Whatever flavors you decide to try, make sure you order a bottle of plain menthol, or better yet, a menthol Ice flavor. then just add a few drops of the menthol Ice to whatever flavor you are vaping. Makes juice you don't much care for vapable. I never smoked menthol anything, but finding I like a few drops with about every flavor to get that coolness.

I didn't think I would like the permanent drip tip on the protank either but it feel and works great. Otherwise protank 2 looks like it will have a removable tip when it comes out. And the leaking is more like condensation, well unless you over tighten the head into the base and also over tighten it to the device then it could leak allot.

Seems like you know what you want and you can always try other things out at a later date if you want.
