I'm New Here and New To These Things

[DC2]

I'd suggest starting out with two different strengths of juice then.

If you get some 12mg and some 24mg you can mix them together to find the right strength for you.
I'm guessing you might wind up somewhere around 18mg but you never really know until you try.

If your juice is not high enough in strength, you may wind up with cravings still.
And if your juice is too high, you'll know it, because you'll get a bit nauseous and start getting a headache.

Or using those same 2 strengths - vape low and top off high - where when the urge is great use the higher nic ejuice but so as not to create a dependence for higher stuff - vape at the low level. Thanks Rob from liquidxpress for that tip.

And DC2 - I'm like you - I don't want to get totally off nicotine.

Ok, so the 510 ultimate starter kit comes with

* 2 x Rechargeable Manual Button Batteries
* 2 x Atomizers
* 1 x USA Battery Charger
* 5 x Pre-filled Cartridges
* 1 x User Manual
* ----
* 1 x PCC

* 1 x Wall to USB Converter (USB passthrough compatible)

for $87 with free shipping.... anyone know of a better deal?

Thanks for all the help!

That looks like a good kit! You are all set! You could also add a drip tip for a couple bucks and see if you like dripping. There might be lower prices, but I don't know of any off the top of my head.

You might want to try a few juice vendors for sampler packs. I like Velvet Vapors and Vaperite.

If you don't mind the bigger battery (and I don't), I have an eGo (or three) and really like them.

I am with you on the smoke safer...not wanting to quit...I smoked over 2 packs of analogs per day and in January of this year, just quit them and went to the eGo. It is a very good PV to start with. I would also recommend the CE2 clearomizers...they worked the best for me right out of the box.

Good Luck and Happy Vaping

Now you're getting somewhere!

If you don't mind something the size of a small cigar then this is the right move.
A high percentage of people that start with a cigarette-sized device move up eventually.

Recharing batteries all the time gets old pretty fast.
You either have to use a PCC or move up to bigger batteries.

Or from LFC's earlier post:

Riva 510 from Liberty Flights - Electronic Cigarette - Starter Kits - Riva 510 $30 with discount code ECF

I'd go for the Special Edition but they're currently out.

what about vapor production? is it as good as I see the regular joye 510? and is it a cool vapor or warm?

Thanks!

Look at Kent's post above on Liberty Flight's RIVA. It's an eGo clone that some people even prefer and is super cheap. I have Joyetech eGos myself.

I have only tried the eGo and KR808 before myself. Vapor production on the eGo is better. I have heard it is better than 501 as well because it has a bigger battery. It also depends on if I use PG/VG juice and what atty I used. I think the vapor is less warm on the eGo, but I wouldn't call it cool. I can get pretty huge clouds of vapor, much larger than smoking with an analog.

I really like dripping on the eGo with 100% VG. I listed my stash here (my stash) if you want to check it out.

Best starter kit on the block--Riva 510 (lite bundle)--liberty Flights--30$
I started with a Joye Ego from them and bought the riva kit a few weeks ago for a back up.
I kinda like it better than my ego.
Both have batteries that last me from 6:00 AM. till after i get home at 4:00PM.
Never had 1 run down before I get back home in the evening.
Sometimes they are still going till bedtime !!!!!!!
Nothing around any better for a first kit at that price .

 

[Silversmyth]

By the way--Ego and Riva are almost the same PV's
Riva has little larger batteries for less money than eGo

The 750 Rivas are the same size as the 650 eGos but last about an hour longer.

You've got a really nice selection there.

My only concern is that 14mg might still leave you with some cravings.
But then again, it might not.

Regardless, good luck!

 

[sea]

Good luck! That is a really awesome selection of flavors and strengths. I think DC2 is right that 14 mg might leave you unsatisfied. I did the same thing when I placed my first juice order b/c I smoked less that a pack a day. I had to experiment with the nicotine levels and have 0-36, but usually vape around 16-18.

Hmm, can I just smoke more of it then? hahaha

I was scared of 18 or higher because sometimes when I smoke a full cig all the way like heavily, I got totally nautious and sweat and have to lay down for a few mins, lol...

 

[DC2]

Yes, that is exactly what you can do if you want or need to.


But if you find it plastered to your face all day, you might be too low.
It's pretty easy to figure out what you need once you get started.

 

[MickeyRat]

One of the better newbie setups I've seen in a while. I agree with others. Get a small bottle of 24mg. I vape 12 mg but, for some reason lately, around 9:00 or 10:00, I'm finding that I just can't get enough. So, I have a drip tip and a 3ml sample bottle of 24mg that I use for a little bit. Works for me.

 

[elan123]

Did I screw up with my choice?

That inferno:T in the banner looks pretty bada$$... whats the difference? anyone have experience with it? I might buy it too, it looks fun!
