Hello I am new to the entire E-Cig but was given a prosmoke by my family in order for me to quit I dont mind it and have actually not smoked an actual ciggarette in 2 weeks. I am actuall considering purchasing a different model as I am not all pleased with the flavor but it does give me my nic fix. I am wondering if anyone can give me some suggestions on what I might get. Thanks in advance for any help!

Ive just recieved a Riva 510 from liberty flights, looks a really good unit but im yet to use it as its on charge lol :(

But it depends what your looking for in an e-cig really as to what you should get.

These are popular choices since the most supported threadings are 510 for 2-pieces and KR808D-1 for 2-pieces

re battery life
180mah is at most 2-3 hours for a light to moderate vaper. 1/2 that for a heavy vaper
180mah is 60% more charge
750mah is a LOT more charge

3-piece is battery+atomizer+cartridge aka cart
2-piece is battery+cartomizer aka carto

And manual batteries recommended for all - you can control your hit better, much harder to kill with juice leaks, and won't turn on accidentally from wind or vibration. Cartomizers and dripping are the most popular methods of vaping and those are the ways most likely to drip on a battery occasionally.


Joye 510 - 3-piece usable as a 2-piece with mostly blank cartos, 180mah, small (especially w/ a carto) - very nice PCC available at NoSmokeVA.com for standard 510 batteries (manuals included) but tI think if you open the lid you need to restart the charge

Joye 510 w/ mega xl batteries - 280mah but long (128mm w/ a carto, longer with atty and cart), only the less-roomy Joye metal PCC available

KR808D-1 (also Vapor4Life.com in colors, most prefilled cartos there) - a 2-piece with lots of prefilled cartos and good selection of blank cartos. Batteries - shorty 180mah, standard 280mah, xl380mah but xl won't fit in the PCC which is a flat metal case. Can be used as a 3-piece w/ a DSE901 atomizer

The fat battery models - these have super-long battery life of 650mah to over 1000mah depending on what batteries you get
Fat battery models can also use hotter-hitting low resistance atomizers and cartomizers
These two are 510 compatible
Ego - the original fat battery 510
Riva 510 - a popular less expensive clone (I got the Riva 510 Lite Bundle for under $30 at Liberty-Flights.com - click the 20% off in the upper left corner of the front page then all prices shown will be shown reduced by 20%)
And this one is KR808D-1 compatible - Elegant Easy from CigEasy

In order of heat of hit:
510 ... KR808D-1 w/ Vapor4Life cartos ... Ego/Riva/EE w/ LR atomizer or LR cartomizer

Some good hardware vendors
Liberty-Flights.com (click the 20% off on front page upper left - I need internet Explorer to see it)
Cignot.com
LiteCigUSA.net (has plain KR808D-1 manual kit)
NoSmokeVA.com - for the nice PCC for standard 510

And you need eliquid - no matter what you get you need to add e-liquid

Basically I want good taste and good lasting batteries. I was looking at some reviews on the Tornado Tanks. Battery life is a big thing for me as I am on the road a lot and dont want to have to worry about trying to charge while driving. Keeping a couple extra batteries around doesnt bother me but I dont like changing it so often like I do with the Prosmoke. I have 6 batteries wich last 1.5 - 2 hours which for me is 3-4 cigs worth. So basically yeah thats what I am looking for.

I myself like to drip for taste, and prefer rechargable battery mods. But I wanted something for my father, so I purcased him a pig cig(same style and size as ego and riva, but 901 conection)available at le cig, along with some 808 megas(LR and std) from IKENVAPE, and let me tell you that this combo has me impresed with flavor and throat hit. I find myself picking his up(often) just to make sure it's working right(or so I tell him) LOL. So this could be an option if you don't want to be dripping for flavor. Oh, by the way those 808 megas took 65 drops to fill and the pig cig just gets put on the charger at night(it makes it through the day). So it is good for on the road!!!

Size doesnt really matter as long as its still portable. And able to be put in my shirt pocket so I can take it in. Price I am still new so keeping it under a couple hundred to start would be great I know overall I will save more money in the long run but still want to keep it down for now. Tat I am going to look into those do you have any pics of it?

I think once you are hooked on vaping, you are going to want something like an eGo or eGo T...something with a longer battery life.
510 (~200-280mA battery)maybe 2-3 hours battery life
eGo or similar (~650mA battery) maybe 6 hours of battery life
a 900 or 1000mA battery will last you pretty much most of the day...of course it depends on what type of atomizer (addy) you have. If it is a Low Resistance (LR) addy, it will draw more from the battery and shorten the time between charges.
