Hi from Allentown PA

[FoamerDave]

Hi my name is Dave and am glad to be here. I have yet to buy my first PV. But this forum did save me spending way more the i had to. Was about to whip out the old cc on a $150 rig the other night as i was searching the web and stumbled on this forum. So glad i did, but almost wish i did not ether. I am now going though info overload. Well I'll end this here and make new post with ? that come up, have a ton but tiring to read though and find them myself. Thank for being here Dave

Welcome to the forum Dave!

Have you narrowed down a few of your choices?

Welcome Dave! Glad you stumbled in, lol. We can help if you tell us what you want i.e.: battery life, cigarette like or bigger okay, Box or cylinder shape, ect. Don't worry, most of us bought a mistake to begin with, so now most of us try to help people starting out not do that.

Actually, if you have that much cash to lay down, get the Lavatube, and a couple packs of 3ohm boge cartos.

Skip steps. Get the best class of gear right off.

hi dave and welcome---the people here are pretty friendly. if anyone can help, i'm sure that they will! best of luck finding the pv that suits you and your needs

 

[FoamerDave]

not really. I am thinking some sort of 510 or maybe the ego. Knowing how i smoke analogs make me think I will be happier with something that comes with a long life bat.

 

[KeysBum]

You are in the right place. My only suggestion now is don't get cig sized batteries. Go big.

 

[36tinybells]

skip the 510 kit then. The ego will give you a longer batt life. The ego model is also known by other names like Riva and Kgo. For $50 or less, here's a couple of deals that will start you off with xl cartos that hold more liquid (the slb kgo) eCigarette Kits or a standard ego here Kits. Both are reputable sellers and very nice people.
The lava tube is an option. But these two kits would both make nice back up if you move onward to mods later.

Pull up a chair! We saved one for ya! Very good decision that you've made to change your life. Many well informed people "lurk" here that can get you pointed in the right direction. Good luck to you!

That KGO is a good deal. Definitely get some cartomizers with your kit. I repeat- get cartomizers with your kit.

And you'll need about 30 ml of juice in small sizes from a juice vendor.

That'll give you a good vaping experience from the start for not a lot of money. See what you like/don't like and you can always go from there.

Remember, you're going to spend a ton on juice.

 

[FoamerDave]

Wow thanks for all the welcomes!

We all have different opinions - what works for me may not necessarily work for you. Read up, look at the pictures in the "show your set up" string, ask questions. My humble opinion is that a bottom feeder like a Reo Mini is a great first step. They are user friendly and hold a good bit of their resale value on the classifieds.

It's hard to make a choice for your first mod but, most importantly, it will get you started. Once you're on your way you can always upgrade. Good Luck and Welcome!

Will you adopt me?

Then it wouldn't be the lavatube. I don't recommend that pile of metal to anyone. Boge cartomizers I agree with but not the lavatube. A variable voltage box mod is more consistent than that thing...end of rant but to each his own right?

For starting out, I recommend an ego lite bundle for liberty-flights.com. Good battery life and more consistent. Along with the kit, get a box of Boge 2.0ohm cartomizers and a drip tip. Simplest setup with good flavor/vapor/throathit that there is IMO.

welcome to the forum
there are alot of choices out there do some research before laying out a ton of cash on one mod.
what one likes another hates
i love my reos and think they are the best for me and would recommend them to anyone ,with boge 2ohm cartomizers
for me bottom feeders are the easiest to operate ,just squeeze when your low on juice and your ready to go.

good luck on your new vaping journey
