Try an Ego T with a Kanger T3 clearomizer. Constant Vapor sells them as well as a few other places. The vapor production is good and a kit is like 35 bucks plus 6.95 for a T3 since most starter kits come with other clearomizers. Then if you feel the need to upgrade you can move on to variable voltage devices. If ya have a large budget you can go straight to a provari. They run about 150 and certainly not bad to start with. I personally started with the Ego and have been cigarette free for a month and a half now. The disposable is a good sample although I'm sorry yours did not really produce much vapor. Sky is the limit on vapor production though when you buy the devices. Finally please what ever you do don't buy one of those njoy or blu gas station cigs. I hope you find a device you like and leave the analogs behind. Welcome to the forum.

I'm thinking about ordering this.
eCig Starter Kit - 650mah

Now I need to find a liquid, right?

This looks good, you even get 10ml of liquid for free. That will get you a basic start (that 10ml won't last you long through hehe).

Depending on if you are out and about a lot, you can get higher mah batteries kit (same kit but with longer batteries that will last longer):

900mah kit like the one you listed
eCig Starter Kit - 900mah

1100mah kit
eCig Starter Kit - 1100mah

900 mah is a good size, and should be about 8-9 hours of actual vape time.

Same here, vivi novas and 50%/50%, seems to work great, btw, in case it did happen to you StrigoiI found some Vision Vivi Nova 3.5ml Acrylic Tube. I haven't tried them yet I know I have the option :D

I just use the tubes that come with the VNs. Ecto Cooler is the only citrus liquid I use and is the only one that might cause an issue. I've been running it in one of my VNs a month now with no cracks (just cloudiness). I've got some of the metal ones, but filling them is kind of annoying so they sit in a drawer.

Jump on that kit. That price is a heck of a bargain for what your getting with it. Use the clearos that come with it. If you like em great if not you can look around for what you do like. Good luck on finding a liquid there are many great choices.

Cinnamon could be problematic too.

A lot of tobacco flavors don't taste the same as tobacco that you're used to. But here's a link:

Mt. Baker Vapor tobacco flavors:
Nicotine Juice - Tobacco Flavors - Mt Baker Vapor - Electronic Cigarettes
If you order from there you can get 24 mg and I'd say just get the house blend PG/VG.
Coupon code ecf.

555 is a popular flavor. I vape his RY4 - it is a rich deep flavor and not very toboccao-ish to my taste. Try a few small smaples of different ones. it's surprising what you find you like - often different to what you might expect.

ok I'm going to get the 900mah. Now for the liquid... I just want a high nicotine (24?) and tobacco flavor. Can someone link me. That one site I don't know where to start.

One thing I guess I will drop the hammer on now...it's VERY hard or close to impossible to find something close to analog taste. I know some people said they found some close or mixed a few to get there, I just haven't (and gave up since I love my fruit ones lol). I would be open minded on your order of e-liquid and surprise yourself with different flavors.

Even though more expensive order a bunch of 5-10ml, that will let you experience a bit and learn what you like (it's also fun to mix!). If it doesn't taste good, store it in dark, shake it every few days and try again a few weeks later, some juice need time to "age" or "steep".

I edited one of my earlier posts to mention that. But yes, citrus and cinnamon are the ones to watch out for.

The nic content really depends, I'd get a mix of between 12-24mg to start off.

Mt Baker Vapor - Electronic Cigarettes, USA made E Juice, and Accessories

Being a 2-3 PAD smoker I'd start with 24mg liquid. There's a chance you may need higher (some sites offer 36mg liquid) and there's also WTA liquid (I have zero experience with it) as well. Mt. Baker Vapor is my current go to for liquid.

Don't stick with just tobacco flavors (I understand many find them necessary at first). Buy a sampler or two of something different that sounds good and give it a try. If you order over X amount they send a free 15ml sample bottle of their choice. I will recommend their Extreme Ice. It's a menthol/wintergreen flavor and very good. I hated menthol cigarettes and fell in love with that liquid. I add menthol to almost any flavor it will work with now.

FWIW, when it comes to tobacco flavors they won't taste like a cigarette. They will taste more like a freshly opened pack of cigarettes smells. If you only vape for few days and try a cigarette (which I think is worth doing), you will understand how disgusting they taste. I tried that several times and always had to go brush my teeth afterwards to get rid of the taste.
