Yes using an atomizer as it's easier to clean and because only 2-3 drops are used not much wastage.

atomizer/ atty- an element on to which 3-4 drops of juice is dripped- generally used to test new juices- easy to clean.

that is great info! I have been wondering if there is a way to test Juices easier because filling up a cart, finding out the juice is horrible and then having to wash out the carto or the tank can take time, Dont Atty's have fiber in them like a cart?

I think I have also seen a video somewhere on YouTube that shows how to change a carto into an atty just remove the stuffing and drip juice on it?

All of us have gone through this process. It's gonna be ok and you will be pleased with the Twist. Before buying my PV I spent 200+ hrs researching BUT it paid off handsomely as I was up and running from day one. Here's the package I put together. The Very Best of Luck to You.

Quantities are in Red

Two Twist batteries- your choice either 650 or 1000 mah- 100 mah= 1 hr normal vaping.
$17.88 or $19.99 each- Two

Ego-C Twist | Virgin Vapor | Electronic Cigarette Organic e-Liquid | Electronic Cigarettes

Vivi Nova Tank (holds 3.5 ml) with 3 heads ( coil and wick)- $11.99. For the Twist I would get 2.4 ohms- provides a great vaping range on the variable volt Twist. I would buy at least 2.Two+
ViVi Nova Tank Cartomizer | Virgin Vapor | Electronic Cigarette Organic e-Liquid | Electronic Cigarettes

Extra Heads- $2.99 each- 2.4 ohms.
ViVi Nova Replacement Heads | Virgin Vapor | Electronic Cigarette Organic e-Liquid | Electronic Cigarettes

USB Charger- $3.99- May want an extra for the car IMO. Two
USB Battery Charger | Virgin Vapor | Electronic Cigarette Organic e-Liquid | Electronic Cigarettes

Wall Adapter- $3.50. One
Wall Plug for USB Battery Charger | Virgin Vapor | Electronic Cigarette Organic e-Liquid | Electronic Cigarettes

The links above are all for VirginVapor while the links below are all for LiteCigUSA.

If you’re concerned about the look of the Vivi Nova on your Twist (threads will show) here’s a “cone” that will “pretty up” your PV- $1.95- for the extra $2.00 I would buy it. One
EGO Stainless Steel 3.5ml DCT Tank Cone

As for a car charger (you’ll either need to buy an extra USB Charger or remember to bring your USB Charger along (I just bought a spare and keep it in the car)- same vendor as above- $7.95. One
USB to Car Adaptor

An atomizer for testing new juices before committing a clearomizer to it- much easier to clean- $6.95- only need one. One
Joye 510 Atomizer

Here's a pic of the Twist with Cone- right side 3 PVs

Without Cone- note this is the Vivi Nova Metal Tank

And after this all you need are some juices.

Some of the places with the best juice (in my opinion, anyway) don't have the latest hardware.

That is because some of the eLiquid/eJuice Vendors specialize in Liquids and Juices but only carry some Bits & Bobs just so you can pick up some 'things' so you don't have to put in more than one order to another place.

Only one correction. You have 2 wall adapters- only need one. Red below is supposed to be a clearomizer but the price is only $2.95- should be around $12.00
Edit: No you don't need a syringe as the bottles of juice have a dripper on them.

Don't use the syringe! It's a gateway for you to use it for "other" things! Just joking. COPD center and a smoker? Do I find that ironic? But yes, you really don't need that syringe for the filling process. (it maybe helpful for an exact, clean filling, but honestly it's just another step that's unnecessary). Anyone else care to enlighten this lovely angel, melissa?

I smoked for 55 yrs. I've been smoke free for over 1 1/2 yrs. I use a syringe to fill cartos and tanks. Nothing awful about it. You will, after all, be filling at home most of the time. That's why you have multiple tanks or cartos or clearos. It is a very precise measuring tool and wastes zero juice.

Well when Im camping I can pour the citronella steady hand into the tiki torch but that was when I was smoking! Im not so steady today so I may need some help.

ANd yes the irony of being the only smoker in my company while dealing with patients on air tanks and emphysema and the awful life they all live....yeah, its haunting.

Okay I corrected my order. I think I should just give up on the atomizer idea and see how i feel about the clearmoizers and go from there, if im so hell bent on the prefilled non sense i can revisit the issue. i just have to order something today grrrrrrrrr

Atomizers have no filler and can be cleaned with boiling water and/or PGA between juices. A bridgeless atomizer is a good way to test juices without sacrificing a cartomizer. I use the Vision 2.8 ohm bridgeless atties and am happy with them. They run $7.99 or so, just Google "Vision bridgeless" and you should find vendors that carry them. Don't forget a drip tip if you don't have one!

Hey,

I totally feel your pain on this.

First things first; ignore what other people think. They are probably too close-minded to see what an amazing technological advancement eCigs are. If they say the best way to quit is going cold turkey, they've obviously never smoked before and do not understand how difficult it is.

My opinion is that you should start out with a cheap, analog-looking eCigarette, to see if you would actually enjoy vaping.
Don't stop smoking analogs though, just get familiar with vaping.

If you feel like you enjoy vaping, then do some online research and find which eCigarette is right for you.

You can then proceed to start vaping and slowly fading out analog cigarettes. Whenever you feel like smoking, take out your eCig and vape away!

Good luck!
