Yeah, for price and overall reliability the E-Power and EGO's come highly recommended by a lot of people here. E-power has a bit more battery life, but sometimes requires some fiddling. So, perhaps the EGO.

Make sure to get two or three batteries, and buy a good pack of cartomizers. Either the mega dual coil cartomizers that others have recommended, I personally am loving my ressurector cartomizers. They hold a lot of juice, and last awhile. Fill up a few of those, two or three batteries, and you will be set with a hassle free and sleek looking set-up for all day.

I was a pack a day smoker, and about three cartomizers full set me up all day. From the moment I wake up, tell I go to bed.

Get a good stock of cartomizers though, and make sure to look up on youtube for some videos on how to properly fill and clean them for maximum efficiency.

Big ego or riva batteries, with large cartomizers, is a pretty solid starter approach.

Liberty flights classically has excellent prices, using their october20 20% off coupon code.

A basic two battery starter riva kit, plus a third, spare, battery. Also look for large cartomizers with about 2 ohm resistance, something like boge 2 ohm mega cartos (carto is the short form of cartomizer).

Add a couple 30ml bottles of eliquid. 24mg is typical if you smoke full strength cigs, while 16mg/ml is typical for lights smokers. Getting one bottle, at least a small one, of one strength higher and one lower, can help dual in the strength you need.

Mods like the silver bullet, reos, etc. are super, but a good riva or ego initial setup will let you get going on vaping, spend some time figuring out what you want next.

My hubby works on job sites, and really needs the all day setup he can just use with no hassle of filling etc. I got him two eGo batteries (900mahh) and some eGo Mega Dual Coil Cartomizers from Health Cabin. They take 4mls of juice each. Thats all you will need, oh and a charger and juice, then your good to go.
I would have to agree completely with this set up for all day, no fuss. One eGo batt will last most of the day and with 2 charged you're good to go. They are also relatively slim and fit nicely in the pliers pocket on cargo/contractor's pants.

...if you want indestructible, try the GLV-2 Electronic Cigarette [GLV-2] - $100.00 : Electronic Cigarettes and E-Liquid - Great Lakes Vapor add a hand full of 2ohm DCCs dual coil cartomizer and you will be good to go for a day at work...add a second pair of batts and you are covered for the day......
madjack:2cool:

I agree with Madjack. If price is not a consideration, then the GLV-2 5v is the way to go. I use a 1.7 ohm 3m tank on mine and batteries last until well after I get home from work and tank lasts even longer. Only drawback is; it takes a very long time to get one made and in your hands. Also, tanks are better when you settle on what juice you like best and that will take time. Some mega cartos will work best until then and the GLV-2 will handle low resistance 1.5/1.7 ohm just fine.

For a quick fix to start right away, check these out. http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...uality-3-7v-box-mods-19-5v-box-mods-28-a.html

Two of these 3.7v with 1.5 ohm mega cartos will last me until I get home and very small. Two will fit in a shirt pocket easy, have a shut off switch so no accidental fire and can have a different flavor in each. Very inexpensive, over and above on customer service and super fast shipping. Read some of the comments on his thread.

He also makes a 5v, a Variable Volt and bottom feeders. Can't use low resistance cartos on his 5v because the protected batteries will shut down, however the regular cartos work fantastic! Make a post on his thread or email him with your wants and he'll set you up fast. Then you'll have time to wait on your GLV-2. Worth the wait, however not so comfortable in a shirt pocket.

Hi sm0kyj03 and welcome to ECF. I was in the construction biz and I would recommend an all mechical Mod cuz of all the dust, dirt and possible damage from dropping/ getting knocked around. The PV I've got the is the Megalodon and it is a workhorse- tough and durable. There's also the Silver Bullet.
Good Luck, Vapoor.

Dude, you should check out Vaporbeast.com. Check out the Switchback. I just ordered a blue one. Also 49 bucks seems like a deal. Maybe I'm just excited because I have not seen anything like it. Should last all day and looks really durable and puts off some kick ... vapor.
that looks really neat, the reason i choose the 3 i listed as a go to for my next pv is that they are all mechanical though ;)
right now im just looking at juices and waiting on my epower hoping i ordered everything i need as it took forever to ship
