Hi :)

[CommaHolly]

Just thought I'd say hello I'm Holly,,,,,,,,,Comma Holly as you can probably tell,,,,,it's my old college professor's fault, long story

Anyway, I'm 47, was a cigarette smoker for thirty years, off and on, mostly ON. I quit 3 times,,,,,,once for 6 years, once for 3 years and once for six months,,,,,,,I missed smoking too much I recently found vaping, and I am serioiusly in LOVE.

I bought two to start,,,,,,both inexpensive, and I know I want to move up to something better soon,,,,,,,I tried the Blu disposable (total waste of money) but didn't like the taste and a NJOY rechargeable, which is where I am at right now, although I pried that baby open and refilled it with ejuice I bought at a local smoke store. MUCH better.As I said, I know I want to go up a few notches (I'd like a battery that lasts longer than 3 hours and doesn't take longer to recharge than I spent smoking) but at the moment I'm shopping around, watching vids etc,,,,,,,so for the moment, the Njoy is doing the job (no cigarettes for 40 hours now,,,,,,wheeeeeeeeeeee LOL)

,,absolutely NO withdrawl by using the ecig either physical or emotional,,,,,I really like it,,,,,,,and no, I'm not quitting,,,,,I'm switching to a safer alternative,,,,,,vaping. Anyway, just wanted to say hello!

Hi Comma Holly, congrats and welcome to ECF. The best cig sized PV is the Volt. The next step up is the Kgo or E-Power. Both true 3,.7 volts Kgo about the size of a sharpie and the E-Power a little larger. They would give you about 9-10 hrs vaping. Batteries- 100 mah= 1 hr normal vaping before recharge.
Happy Vaping.

 

[CommaHolly]

thank you! I'll check into those!

 

[CommaHolly]

can you fill blank cartridges/cartomizers with ejuice with these???

Hello and welcome, I am new as well. Two weeks in and hooked on vaping. I also started out with a crappy little kit and managed to use it for about a week before I made the upgrade. I then discovered this forum and I have been on it non stop. The videos are great and very helpful especially when looking to try something new. I love to watch PBusardo he is my favorite. Its not boring and he adds the humor which helps. Congrats on quitting!!

Welcome to ECF, CommaHolly! (do I need an actual comma in that situation? hmm)

Agreed, if you would like to keep the cig sized form, V2 is a great way to go. Could even check out the Halo G6. Otherwise, the KGO and E-Power are good steps up from that. Hope you enjoy everything and good luck with a successful quit!

Welcome to the ECF!!! The Volt isn't a bad kit per se...but I found the same kit for less at Tropical Vapors...they all pretty much come from the same place...it's just a matter of comparing prices...here is a comparison for you...Smokeless Image | Only The Best Electronic Cigarette | Starter Kits
Starter Kits - Electronic Cigarettes, E-Cigarettes, E-Cigs, Personal Vaporizers
I am always price shopping...some places have better prices on different things...and I find that the smaller vendors will almost always give you the better deal....and upgrading is whole other story...LOL. Vaping is an adventure..I enjoy it sooo much more than when I was a smoker!

 

[CommaHolly]

thank you all so much for the sweet welcome I found my answer on the Volt they have blank cartos. I will check out that other place though too, Kitty thanks!

 

[IronHorse]

You betcha...blank cartos can be purchased for any set-up...

thank you all so much for the sweet welcome I found my answer on the Volt they have blank cartos. I will check out that other place though too, Kitty thanks!

Welcome, Holly!

My advice, Have fun with flavors, you will surprise yourself. I love my kgo, but a good 808 is smart starting also.

It is not the same set. The volt 65mm batteries are 240mah and the 78 are 380mah. These are different batteries. In addition, the volt cartos are bottom horizontal coil, which don't burn as easy. In addition, with the volt, can choose from a variety of colored batteries and LEDs and from 15 different flavors, including 3 sampler packs. Plus, with the 15% off coupon out there, the volt standard starter kit is cheaper. And smokeless image has the best customer service out there.

Ask around, when it comes to the mini, all of the veterans will recommend the volt. There are 3 other well known companies that sell the same product, the halo g6, smoove and bloog. Smokeless image is cheaper than all of them and has better customer service. Plus SI will give you a free battery,bottle of juic or pack of cartos just for posting your picture with the product on their forum

Welcome aboard ,Holly! My wife has been vaping for several months and she has stuck with her 808 and a charging case for most of that time. She just likes the small form factor and the auto batteries too much to switch! Plus the PCC allows her to go all day no problem. She just pushes the button to recharge after every few hours and throws it back in her purse.

 

[Jedipapa]

There is a great video that goes in depth on the volt. Check it out

It's a little long, I think 30 minutes, but he goes in depth with the volt and all the accessories

Hey Holly, I recently went with the KGO and the Stardust Clearomizer and couldn't be happier. Battery and tank lasts all day and is a breeze to refill. Just my 2cents.

You can get the volt deluxe starter kit, with a pcc, 2 batteries, pack of cartos for $65, and free shipping. There is a 15% off coupon out there that will make it $55.

I will find the coupon code and pm it to you

[CommaHolly]

Thank you! that's a reasonably priced kit considering the ones I first considered were 150 bucks or more!!!! Thanks for the coupon code too!

 

[CommaHolly]

oh, and I loved your video! I learned a ton and the humor was a nice change from really dry reviews
