Hi guys!

I found your forum and you seem like a bunch that knows about what you are talking. I´ve got a feeling I´ll be hanging around here a long time. :p I´m a smoker myself for 10 years now and have also been considering the change from conventional cigarettes to electronic ones and i thought you all would be the one to run to for firsthand info on these gadgets.

Anyhow, wanted to say hi to everybody

Pete

Hi Pete,

Welcome! You'll find that we're a friendly bunch and will be happy to help out if we can.

There's an awful lot of info to plough through here but it's worth it! You'll find that people vary as to their favourite device. The main tip from me would be to get four things (1) a spare atomiser (2) a spare battery (3) a bottle of e-liquid (4) a bottle of glycerine.

Good luck and keep us posted with your progress!

A big welcome from Philadelphia! There is more information here than you can possibly absorb. But this New Members forum is perfect for asking anything can think of. The search engine is not great, but often by just reading, watching vids, etc, you'll get info you need that you didn't know you needed! :) I don't know how many times in the beginning I thought "wow, I hadn't thought of that!"

Ask questions, study, choose a PV, and have fun vaping! And be patient with yourself about completely switching over to ecigs if that is your goal. 100% is easy for some, and less so for others.

A piece of advice: don't buy anything from a high-profile web-advertising PV company before you find out about them here. There are a lot of hucksters out there (I won't name names, you know who you are).

Cheers!

Be sure to read The Wonderful World of Vaping: An Illustrated Guide to E-cigs (Parts 1 through 6) in the New Members' Forum. And do order and extra battery,atomizer, and e-liquid as others have suggested.

Don't worry too much about making the right choice in equipment. These things do wear out and you will eventually need to buy another. If you aren't crazy over the one you start with just order another type and save the first one as a back up.

Good luck on you journey! We are all rooting for you. :)

I'd recommend the JOYE 510 electronic cigarette. (no box). They cost about $35.00 American.

When you deduct the $5.00 for five factory filled cartridges,
Then you deduct about $5.00 for the charger,
you are paying only $25 or $26 dollars for your e-cigs.....that's $12 or $13 dollars each because the 510 (no box) comes with TWO e-cigs.

It's a great startup kit.

Welcome to the forum. It sounds like you haven't actually quit cigarettes and started vaping. Read and search the forum for the best ecg and liquid. Don't expect too much. I smoked for 40 years 3 packs a day and if I can switch from analogs to ecigs anybody can. Good luck.

Thanks, and no I haven´t made any decision yet, but the more I look around here the more e-cigarettes seems like a smart choice. I´m going think a bit more on that and then decide.

:lol:I thought for a moment you were suggesting me a bottle of nitroglycerin. My bad.

Anyhow, thanks for the greetings and I will start a new thread once I have made up my mind about e-cigarettes. Looking to get all the support from you guys.

By the way, the options you are suggesting seem a little messy business. I´m not sure, but all those liquids and spare parts are confusing. Besides I have read that nicotine might leak which can´t be safe. Isn´t there something more reliable than mixing up something myself??

You don't have to - but it helps. To start with if you get an ordinary bottle of e-liquid (or several sample bottles to try different flavours) then topping up carts will be easy for you. Just relying on carts alone can be an expensive business. It's like anything else that's new - it can seem a little awkward at first but you soon get the hang of it. Good luck! :)

Oh, and with regard to spare parts - these things do fail sometimes. Spare parts save you from tearing your hair out or reaching for the cigs.
