I'm a noob as too and I've found what works for me. I will upgrade in the future but I'm happy with what I got now. I bought a rechargeable e-cig that looks like the real thing from the gas station for $20. I found a local smoke shop that has a small selection of e-liquid & refill the cart. I use the cap method. Not having any other device to compare it to I'm content and the battery lasts a few days. I remove the cart and put the caps back on when I know it will sit for longer than an hour and it does not dry out.
My total purchase was under $30. I'm sure there are better e-liquids and devices out there, but this does the trick for me right now.

TI AM a newbie Ive been reading through this Forum for days and have only scratched the surface of what is available here. Your information is massive, (and kinda scattered all over the boards), so its unfair to imply that a newbie is too lazy to figure out where to start in the world of vaping. Yes, we want guidance because, of course, were newbies We just want to know what works for all of you, and why you prefer certain models over others. We hope that through your experience, we will find the one that will work for our needs at the time. Most smokers - turned vapors (especially the girly girls), have a an idea of what we want to start with. Some newbies have no idea where to begin. This is why some of us will ask and re-ask the dreaded what kind do you recommend? Its because we dont have the first clue about the various choices out there, and were feeling pretty secure that some of you have those answers
Be kind to the newbies If you notice someone is recommending a model that may not fit the questions being asked, simply add your own two cents in. Most newbies are hoping to receive several opinions to choose, and from those of you who actually have the experience to share.
I think its great that you seasoned vapors are willing to help those of us just coming aboard. It is gives us the courage to take these steps in hopes that one day, we will be tobacco cigarettes free. Youre encouragement on this board is worth far more that you realize (even when you debate over issues). Its gives us something to think about
A few months ago I was introduced to e-cigs through a friend who quit smoking analogs after trying the electronic version. (its the same time I was diagnosed with COPD ugh, very early stages of the disease). Ive smoked more than 30 years (2 pks a day). I purchased an NJoy at a local gas station. Its was a bit strong, but I was impressed with how much the experience resembled actual smoking (a cigarette). It didnt hold my attention for very long because it ran out of smoke/vapor too quickly and the cartridge refills seemed a bit costly. (it also tasted a little bit like licking an ashtray) NOT that Ive ever licked one LOL
A couple weeks ago I purchased a better quality e-cig in the mall (beneficialcigs.com). This one has flavored disposable cartridges. Ive since learned (through this board) how to refill the cartridges with my own creations. This has been kinda cool only nicotine free so far. Ill add that later if I need to
Back to the reason I began writing this post Im researching my next e-cig purchase. Theres a lot out there to pick from, and it gets confusing for someone who doesnt have the experience you guys have. Im a girly girl nothing bulky for me. I want a sleek feminine look that puts out a powerful vapor and hit.
Any suggestions? ()
). Turns out, for any future newbies who buy this model, that the open/filler end is supposed to touch the thingy in the automizer, so this end goes in first.
