Hello from a newbie with some questions

[Convict]

Hey there after a lot of thought and consideration my wife and I have decided we want to try and switch to vaping after lot of breathing and health issues from 20+ years of smoking, we both feel it's time and have a GREAT feeling the ecig may just do it for us.

Anyways after a lot of research and looking around and a lot of GREAT help from Jason over at vaporflow we have decided to do a 510 manual kit, now my question is, can anyone recommend a good site that ships to canada which sells good 510 kits for a reasonable price that include a PCC system. The PCC system is a must since many times one of us is at work while the other is at home and will both need a way to charge the batteries. So far all I have found is sites that havn't answered emails if they ship to Canada, or ones wants close to or over $100 for something I know other places sell for $60 or cheaper.

Thanks in advance to anyone who reads and replies.

Great decision to turn to vaping. It's nice to see you did your research and decided to go with the 510, it's a great model and i'm happy i bought one. I'm sorry I can't help you with canada suppliers, but you can get a good price on 510's from cignot.

Good luck to you!

I know madvapes ships to Canada. You might try looking in the forum supplier's individual forums. There are links to each site and you can at least search until you have enough posts to ask.

If you're thinking about sharing one kit, I would recommend you think about getting one kit each. The temptation to smoke while your battery is charging will be too great. Regular 510 batteries don't last all that long before needing to be charged and you'll wait a good while for them to charge.

If you must share a kit, share an eGo kit with two batteries. At least each battery should last most of the day before needing charging.

The initial investment will honestly pay for itself in only a month if you really quit smoking.

you could try Happyvapor.com

but I'd steer you towards the happy eGo kit

yeah I had spent a bit of time searching the suppliers forum and emailed a few of the companies but majority didn't give any reply or the ones who did don't carry the type of kits we're lookig for. I figured in the end after about a week of trying to find the information it would be much easier to just post here and ask to see if there's any other fellow canucks out there with good experiences or reccomendations.

Basically trying as hard as possible to avoid making any mistakes and buying a below quality product or the likes which would just give us an excuse to turn right back to smoking.

I'll give madvapes a look though and see what they have in the meantime.

Can't figure out how to edit post so will just reply. Out of curiosity, because I've seen it mentioned before how the standard 510's batteries don't last long, but no real info on how long that is, so was curious about how long is not long?

As for shareing the kit will definitely check into the ego kits i they aren't too expensive (trying to avoid going too deep into the pockets if it doesn't end up working), but out of curiosity as well wouldn't it be just as easy to purchace 2 additional attomizers+batteries with the basic kit at the same or later time? again though this is going off the assumption a basic 510 battery with PCC will last for about 10 "cigarettes" or so (don't know why I came up with that number but I just did).

As for the cost too, don't mind spending a little extra for an ego kit or something if it's going to provide a beter experience, moreso just trying to avoid spending $100 or more for the same thing I know can be found elsewhere for $60

wow thanks lark! that is almost EXACTILY the type of thing I was needing, had looked through the suppliers forum a few times and must have overlooked it. Everyone keeps mentioning happyvapor and I had come across them as well but just didn't like th elook of the prices much. At least now I got some more ifo to go off of i my search, thanks again to everyone

I'm glad someone gave you other options. It looks like madvapes is out of PCC's right now anyway.

How long the standard (non eGo) batteries last is going to depend how often you vape and for how long; that's why no-one quoted a 'time amount'.
if you vape little and not often, the batteries will last a couple of hours between charges, (maybe longer if you are only taking the same amount of puffs you did on a cig) if you vape heavily and constantly - maybe half an hour. Most people vape more than they smoked because vaping delivers nicotine in a slower way to your bloodstream/brain receptors so you need (usually) to do it longer to get the same 'satisfaction' feeling; cigs deliver an almost instant spike hit.
