So let me start out by saying that I have been analog(Newport) free for about 3 month now and I love it! I don't think I will ever go back to smoking another real cigarette. I actually tried one day when I ran out of liquid and I almost threw up because it tasted so disgusting.

I started off with 510 and cheap liquids that was somewhat barly close to Newport taste. I've also been dripping since day one. I love the clean fresh taste and awesome throat hit of dripping:) However, my 510 is starting to feel ancient to me and I can see that it's not really going to last too long.

So I want to "upgrade". The only problem is that I am still a noob and I kept things real simple with my 510. I was looking through tons of videos on YouTube and ego twist really caught my attention. I'm 99% positive that I want this but again, I'm still a noob and I have no clue who has the best price, quality product, and what is everything I need. So this is where I need your help. Please help me put something together so I won't miss anything.

Thanks guys:beer:

Variable voltage (vv) is a great place to begin. Ego twists or vision spinners are awesome. Even having bigger advanced personal vaporizers (APVs) like my eVic, I still use my vision spinners when I'm out on the town.
Getting a good tank or atomizer is also key. I recommend the vivi nova, evod, or vapeonly bcc to newbies I know, because they are easy to use, hassle free and vape great!
Good luck with it all! I'm sure you'll be happy!

    The one that floats your boat is the right choice. There are so many out there anymore that me saying this or that is the way to go is about like me saying my Camels were better than your Newports. If you like dripping, you might love a Reo. You can go all out and try some of the RBA's on a Provari if you wish. Or you might want to stick to the smaller rigs and get a Spinner or a Robust.

    Good place to start would be a Silver Bullet mod. Holds a bigger battery(18650), it can be upgraded with a kick if you want to try variable wattage at some point, fairly affordable, and its quite available. Regarding dripping, carto tanks, rebuildables, or genesis attys.... There are plenty to try and the sb can handle them all. What you dont want is a mod that can only run some of the options if you want to upgrade(its not the greatest idea to run genesis atomizers on a ego style battery and they are skinny so a decent carto tank will make it top heavy).

    OK guys...so after doing a little more searching on this forum I went on vapor beast. I am currently looking at their 900mah ego twist and mini vivi nova tank. The price for both and the charger is under $40 with free shipping. The ego twist battery doesn't seem to be genuine Joye but reviews are all 100%. What do you guys think? Should I pull the trigger? Anything else I should add? Any reason why I should look for something else?

    Also, the mini vivi nova comes with 3 heads with 3 different ohms. Why does it come with 3 different ohm and how does this effect the tool and/or vaping in general?

    It's just my opinion, but if you've been dripping and like the flavor that you get from it, I think you are going to be very disappointed with a Vivi Nova. They mute the flavor quite a bit and you won't be the first person to have issues with burnt tasting wicks. They have plastic tanks to boot. If it was me, I would stay with the atomizer for now and spend my money upgrading the PV (battery) and trying out some different juices.

    Stop Stop Right Now before you go any further

    Itaste MVP sold by Vapor Beast for $65.00
    That $65.00 includes the built in 2600mah battery, comes with charging cable, and two clearomizers but you can use any Micro USB Cable [Cel Phone Charger]. All you need is juice.
    It'll last you 2 1/2 days on a single charge and is so simple to use. Spend the extra money, you'll thank me later.

    I agree with this, a nova just won't cut it if you're already use to dripping. You would have to step up to RBA's or gennies to get a better taste. The upgrade in batteries is probably all you need to do.

    I was actually browsing vapor beast and said to myself WTH is this box looking thing lol:) I just got finished looking at the guy pusardo review and it look pretty impressive. The reviewer look like he was using a tank too:) So most you guys would advise to stay away from tanks?

    Thanks for this recommendation:thumbup:

    Should mention two or three things:
    Vapor Beast gives the best customer service in the industry, I bought a product a while back that didn't work out and Tim was the Best!!

    Also if you saw the Pbusardo Review two of his complaints are solved
    1. The unit now comes with true Ego Threading and will accept everything 510 or Ego Threading
    2. Go to 7:25 Seconds of this review by Field of Vapor and you can make the unit sit rock solid iTaste MVP Review - YouTube I'm a Two Thumbs and I could do it so anyone can.

    Thanks everyone for your help! I can't say enough good things about all of you on this forum:)

    I didn't think about how stepping away from dripping might be considered a "downgrade" until now. Obviously I still have plenty of more experience to gather. I'm currently dripping directly onto my 510 atomizer and been doing it since day one with good results so I don't know if anything less would do, but on the other hand, I never vaped using vivi or claromizer either. I'm willing to try tho along with higher quality liquids since the cost is not too bad:)

    Who is considered to have top quality liquids? I been using cignot and their nport. Haven't tried many other flavors.

    Thanks for all your help guys. I certainly learned one or two things more today:beer:
