You guys have helped me so much in everything I could know...I've been made aware of this sale on some kits that I want your opinion on...

Elektra Juice

Which one of these would serve me best? or if you have any other discount kits in mind, please throw them my way.

I've been recommended a Kanger Horizontal...but I'm not too sure, since this is all still new.

Edit: second thoughts...maybe an Ego-t with an LR-Atty? help meee. (Price is a factor too)

The best deal out there right now is a Riva 510 Lite Bundle at Liberty Flights.

For $29.95 you can get a Riva 510 starter kit that contains two complete Riva 510 ecigs with 750mah batteries (5 to 6 hours heavy vaping between charges), a cone (dresses up the Ecig), and a charger, along with a nice leatherette box.

The Riva 510 is a 3.7v version of the Ego style ecig (3.4v). It will accept any accessory with a 510 thread. That opens up a multitude of options that you will see discussed here on ECF.

Click the 20% off icon at the top of the page to get the $29.95 price.
Electronic Cigarette - Starter Kits - Riva 510

It's also available in a Boge carto version for $34.99. You get all the parts in the Riva 510 Lite Bundle along with 10 Boge 510 cartos (a $16 value by themselves). (Recomended)

Ive been more than satisfied with my volt from Smokeless Image | Only The Best Electronic Cigarette | Electronic Cigarettes | Wholesale Electronic Cigarettes | E-Cigarette | Best Electronic Cigarette | Electronic Cigarette It fits my lifestyle perfectly. Get a starter kit with 2 batteries & you should be good to go all day. Its simple & they have great customer service. Its so easy to just vape & walk, shop, work, play video games if your into that. If you decide to go that route shoot me a pm & I have a discount code you can use.

There are tons of options out there for all types of poeple & there lifestyle, this just happens to work best for me.

There seems to be a few Riva 510's I'm having a little trouble finding the one you recommended :/ from the link you gave me. I think I'm going to get this though.

I personally think the Ego\Kanger kit at Elektra Juice is also a good buy. With a price of only $49 you get the 2x650mah batteries, 5 great cartomizers that are horizontal coil and pretty much the exact same as the Volt\Bloog cartos only lower ohms, charger, Ego cone, drip tip, and right now they are even including a carrying case with all orders.

Then for only $35 you can grab the 280mah 510 setup which is exactly the same only with the smaller more cigarette style batteries if you prefer...I'd go Ego.

Plus they're a canadian site and will ship to you in only a few days and no customs to worry about. Then you can grab some juice too while you're at it.

I just started vaping 5 days ago. I did alot of research on internet and this forum to figure out what e cig to buy.
I have been 5 days now with out smoking regular cigarettes. I can't believe it!!!! I walked by someone smoking a reg. cigarette today and the smell, oh, I couldn't stand it. Don't know how I smoked regular cigs for 22 years.
Anyways, I'm off track, sorry, decided to buy the ego-t 650. I works really well, I've been sucking the hell out of it for the past 5 days. The problem I have with it though is the batteries and the cartridges the e juice goes into.
The batteries aren't lasting all day(mind you, I am using them alot!) and constant refilling the cartridges is getting a bit annoying. To bad they didn't make the cartridges larger, hold more juice. Some of the juice leaks out a little if you aren't using it properly. Easily remedied by youtubing about it.
I would say don't just go for the cheapest e cigs. From this forum I learned that the joye ego-T is easier to use then alot of the e cigs out there.
I'm going to buy the ego-T with a larger battery (1000) so I don't have to charge it so often.
I don't know what the best e cig is, but this one so far has got me not smoking.
I bought mine form vancityvapes, but I've seen alot of other Canadian sites you can buy them from too. Mine cost me $119.00. I don't mind, smoking regular cigs I was spending $200.00 every two weeks.

Also, you can learn on this forum how to make your own e juice, will save you a .... load of money!!!!

Hope this info helps you, don't want you to have to go through the hell I had to go through figuring out what to buy, etc...

Cat, look for Joyetech eGo dual coil mega cartomizers. They hold about 1.8 ml of juice, use no filler (tank fed), and are easy to fill once you know how (search youtube for instructions). 1.8 ml of juice should last you all day, and at least most of a day if you're really hitting on it constantly. We've all been chain vapers, especially when we first use e-cigs. :)

Insatiable, if you want a cigarette looking PV, then look for KR808 starter kits and buy Boge cartos for 808s. Vapor4life also sells good 808 cartos - they call them "Wow" cartos. If you don't care what the PV looks like, then go find a good Riva kit, like the one sold by liberty-flights. You can also use cartos on the Rivas (and other eGo type batteries) if you don't want to use a 3-part e-cig.

Congratulations on your choice to ditch the analogs, you two, and welcome to the ECF! Please ask questions if you need help. This is the most helpful vaping forum on the 'net.

Congrats on getting this far!

The 1000 mah eGo's should last you a bit longer. If your in front of a computer (or in a car) for a large bit of the day you should look into getting an eGo Passthrough battery. That way you can be plugged in and recharging your battery as you are using it.

Another thing to look at is the Vision. Its a top coil design that holds 3.5ml of juice. One of these lasts me just over an average day.

Could you post a link to a dual coil carto that doesn't use any filler? I think you might be mistaken as I don't know of any DC cartos that don't use filler.
