I don't even know what question to ask first.

I have been doing this all wrong.

I want off analogs so bad (I have learned that part so far).

I got a Fin starter kit at Wally World and only did three analogs that day. I thought this might work. I thought I read someplace using the Fin's from the store was going to be expensive. I looked at the review sites that I am not sure but seem like paid reviews and ordered a V2 starter kit. While waiting for the V2 starter kit I was thinking I was using an inferior product and was out of carto's anyway and started on the Analogs again. I found out there were Blu's at Walgreen's.

I am in a small town do there is not much in the way of selection. I found Blu would not get me off of analogs, they to me were a step backward from the Fin's and I am not on Analogs again. I did find the Fin battery fit the Blu carto and for some reason the Blu seemed a little bit better but I found they didn't last long and still were not satisfying. The V2 kit arrived and I felt it was a step up then started to do a tiny bit of reading. Until the V2 carto's ran out of was off of analogs. No carto's and I was back on analogs again. I started to go see if I could find Fin supplies but instead ran across 21Century and got them. Big mistake at least for me. They are awful, I can't use them, They are really bad and I am back on analogs.

I took a look around here and became very confused. I started to act again before knowing what I am doing. I have in a week got a Fin, Blue, V2, and 21st Century starter kit. The Fin was OK but I like the V2 better. I wish I had not spent any money on the other two. I have a bunch of stuff here and of what I have the only ones I will use are the V2's and maybe the Fins if I am desperate. Liquids and such are not available in this town.

Here are things I wish was better with what I have. I wish the batteries ran longer, I wish the carto's lasted longer.

I started to order an Ergo C and a bottle of liquid but I realize I don't know what I am doing. I decided I need to slow down and see what other people think. I am on analogs right now because I will not use the 21st's. Instead of getting the Ergo I ordered supplies for the V2 instead.

What I wish was better was longer battery live and larger capacity of fluid. I want a unit to set at the desk and one that I take with me.

All the carto's I have taste really burnt not. I ordered a couple of 50ml bottles, some filled carto's and a device that runs off of USB, I hope that takes care of the battery life concern. The supplies are so I have time to make an informed decision from now on out but unfortunately I don't know what I am doing.

I am at a desk 12 hours a day so I think something that is used from one location while working makes the most sense. I can use the V2's as the portable unit but of course I don't know what I am doing in seeking out the desk unit. For the portable unit I don't know if I should go to a 510, stay with the V2, or look at something different altogether. I feel so lost. :) I also have a bunch of stuff to throw away.

I got more supplies then I intended.

1 x V2 Power-Cig
5-Pack: Sahara 1.8% Nicotine (5-Pack)
1 x V2 Flavor Cartridges (40-Pack)
10-Pack: Cherry 1.8% Nicotine (10-Pack)
10-Pack: Cherry 1.8% Nicotine (10-Pack)
10-Pack: Mint Tea 1.8% Nicotine (10-Pack)
10-Pack: Sahara 1.8% Nicotine (10-Pack)
1 x Rubber Drip Tips
1 x V2 Platinum e-liquid - 25 ML
e-liquid: Sahara 25ml 1.8% Nicotine
1 x V2 Long Cig (140 mm)
Battery: Long, White (red LED), Manual
1 x V2 LiquiMax Blanks (3-Pack)
1 x V2 Platinum E-Liquid - 50 ML
E-Liquid: Cherry 50ml 1.8% Nicotine
1 x V2 Platinum E-Liquid - 50 ML
E-Liquid: Mint Tea 50ml 1.8% Nicotine

I don't have a clue what to do with the drip tip or the LiquiMax Blanks.

I hope this is enough suppliers to last me until I know the right next step to take.

First off, congrats on making the right choice! No more smelling like #$%! Haha. IMO, I'm not much of a big fan of cartos cause who is now a days? What I recommend to expand your vaping to a new whole level, try getting a starter kit which that has options when it comes to modding. I suggest trying out an eGo twist, something to get you started and just gather more information when it comes to upgrading to the lastest technology out there. Goodluck!

The eGo twist is a battery? What all will it work with? Of what I have at this moment the only thing I will use is the V2 until I find something to replace it.

Ummmm....a LOT of people like and use cartos!! Particularly in tanks (carto tanks). I won't bother with a wick type clearo..even if you paid me. Muted taste, fiddly, leaky, hassle. Yuck. Been there done that. No thanks!

But...welcome to ECF Jjoohhnn. You certainly have enough V2 stuff to keep you going while you learn more. Might want to check into Smokeless Image | Only The Best Electronic Cigarette | Smokeless Image Electronic Cigarettes - The Future is in your hands Their stuff is compatible with the V2 KR808 stuff you have and is cheaper , better and they have more variety in battery sizes and choices. Even variable voltage! Just a thought. Happy vaping!

Yes sir its a battery. But not only that its just a battery, but something that will you get started in the long run! Its 510 compatible, many features you can add on such as tanks, atty (atomizers) and different setups. Try checking the Model Specific Discussion and check different contraptions and reviews on each product you want to purchase in the near future. Cheers

It's not hard to prime a carto for a tank. Pretty easy really. Baditude has some blogs on the subject you should check out. Don't agree with all his advice on tanks...but it's a good start. I have a slightly different approach, but then, everyone has to find the path right for them. Bad's advice is a great place to at least get going.

Again...Jjoohhnn do check out the Smokeless Image link I posted. With them, at least you won't have wasted all you have invested so far, and SI is a well respected and recommended vendor with great CS. Good luck.
