For anyone whos gone through different models and wasted money on juice they dont like...what would you get if you could have it all back and order again?

(not talking bout SE or scams just how you would spend your money if u could turn back time?)

id personally buy a kr808 to start and get samples of Tasty Vapor liquid(got some now...wish i had back then)...and for all the wasted money id buy a lil chuck/big chuck/mod of some kind....

I read quite a bit before my first purchase, I think it helped.....I got the 510.

Juices I probably wouldn't have bought such large (30ml) bottles, but I did ok only hated 1.

I just ordered my first Mod Prodigy V2, I am hoping I won't regret that.
If that goes well, I think I would have scored my purchases an 8 out of 10.

We shall see:confused:

kr8 and a high voltage mod to direct drip it on. that is where i ended. i actually got to that model pretty quickly, but i still had to try a bunch of other stuff before i could actually decide to settle down on that set up.

having an idea where to start is great, figuring out where to stop still takes a lot of money even if you started with what turns out to be your favorite. it is either that or take other peoples word for it, which is hard to do given the many many many many individual tastes and opinions out there.

I'd have built a 510 Nicostick and started on 36mg tobacco flavour, may have stopped me spending too much money buying different models and different strength liquids. Also in taking so long to get rid of the analogs. But who's to know, it is different for everyone and sadly the process appears necessary. However e-cigs have improved and it is good to see more and more people being able to quit more or less straight away, with no doubt a great deal of help from all the information on this forum. :thumbs:

Since I didn't do a lot of research on my first purchase(s), I'd say just buying high priced branded devices. But thats okay, the end result was the same--no more smoking.

My current vapes are the 801, 905v2 (occasionally), 901, & 510-- no complaints, all good.

As far as juice is concerned I've tried some Dekang flavors which is the majority of my stock, & Halo's Smooth8-- haven't tried any other American made ones, but am looking forward too-- but that is probably what I would really like to go back & do over, purely based on tastes of course.

    Somewhere between here and there
    When I started vaping, the battery connectors and adapters were not readily available as they are now. Had I known then what I do now, I would have ordered a high voltage unit right off of the bat. I still love my screwdriver and use it every day but do like high voltage very much. I could have saved some money on the 510 kits I bought. The liquid thing is another story. How many of us have ended up with a box full of liquids that are collecting dust?

    I'd probably start right out with the Janty eGO. Sounds like quite a vaper.
    We actually started with the RN4081 SmokeStik which really wasn't a bad starter outfit. Then we moved to the M401s and that's where we are now and very satisfied. Tried the disposable 501s. Don't see the big deal with the 501.
    The eGo is mine if I ever get the spare funds together.

    I wouldnt have bought my 901 at all. I wouldnt have bought all the the batts I have and gone with a mod instead... maybe, the prob I have with mods is I think they are way overpriced being a modified cheap flashlight which I dont believe will last that long with everyday constant use. I know I like 5v now and would have gone that way.

    I spent a fortune (and I mean a fortune) on 801, 901 & 510 equipment. What a waste in hindsight. It is all sitting here now not being used at all.

    If I had it to do all over again, here is what I would get from the start:

    1 complete Protege kit with 510 adapter
    1 510 to Kr808 adapter
    4 protected batteries
    and lots of cartomizers and whatever juice to refill the cartomizers.

    It is all I will use now and I am happy (actually estatic) with my final selection. I just wished I had not wasted all this money, time and effort learning what works best with the least amount of work and hassle.
