As the title states, I'm new to vaping, I want to buy an ecig but not 100% positive on which one, the one I am looking at is the Magma tank kit from Volcanoecigs.com, I've read/seen reviews that says it's great, and has great flavors, but all opinions//ideas are welcome to me, keep in mind I am only willing to spend about $100 on an ecig, which from looking around is a good amount for me just starting out. Please help with my decision.
I'm new to vaping, please help

Personally I'd stay away from the tank. I have the ego t which I think is the same if memory serves and the tank mites flavor and uses tones of juice. I find myself going back to cartomizers. Is recommend an ego type pv for sure. What size battery do you want?
I would recommend you buy a PV that can later be fitted with a tank as there's a huge learning curve with many new vapers having issues and getting extremely frustrated. Cartos to start off with would be the way to go as they are the most user friendly delivery system available IMHO.
A lot of people start with an eGo style e-cig (I began with a Riva, which is an eGo clone) which run about 40 bucks shipped. Pair one of those with a low resistance (LR) atomizer or cartomizer, and you'll have a solid vape. With the kit, atomizers/cartomizers, and juice you should be well under 100. 
Crystal Clear Vaping and Hoosier Ecigs sell Ego type starter kits that might serve you well. I started off with the Volt from Smokelessimage and still use it daily. It is a cig-style ecig that has just two parts: the cartomizer and battery. You just screw the two together and you are all set. It got me off of a 2 pack per day habit. Good Luck!
v4l.com vapor king. Get the manual battery, you can't go wrong. Affordable and satisfying to all the beginner's needs with a consistently quality product. Just buy the battery and a pack or two of pre-filled carts, you can begin refilling those same carts later when you get used to the idea. Of course this applies to many if not most brands, but V4L has earned my loyalty and my recommendation to others.
@GhosT81 I have not really researched 100% into this, but I want a battery that would last, which like I saw in the magma, much like the blu, had an "on-the-go" charging pack, which seemed nice to have.
Also, thanks everyone for replying, all of these are making me look into further detail, I'll start looking into ego's and v4l, also, best recommendation on flavors? [I tried my friends blu today and he had the tobacco flavored cart, and for some reason it tasted just like coffee to me. and I'm one that wants to quit and I'm dedicated to quitting, also does the 0mg nicotine ones just consist of vaping flavor? [Sounds like a dumb question, I know but I mean like, is it a good flavor for when I get that far into my quitting?]

I'm sorry I was wrong, the inferno is more like the ego. But either way I'd stay away from tanks unless its a carto tank which is a tank with a cartomizer inside. Most people rave about the Riva and kgo but I've had great luck with my ego battery, just not the tanks.
I was trying to find eGo's and all I can find are eGo-T's and 510's, help? links?
You can get a nice Riva with a 650 mah battery from Liberty Flights for $35. Click the 20% off code
Electronic Cigarette - Starter Kits - Riva 510
You can purchase a KGO- bigger battery 1100 mah 3.7 volts
- Hoosier
- BreezESmokes
-SmokTek
e-Power (inexpensive batteries, 3.7 volts)
-Hoosier
-Crystal Clear Vaping
Echo-e 1300 mah battery 4.2 volts
ECHO KITS : Cropduster901!, Home of the B-52
B&G Gold
With any of those kits you need 1-2 boxes of cartomizers. I'd suggest Boge 2.0 or SmokeTek 1.7
Also, 30 ml of juice in small size bottles. Get juice from a juice vendor, not where you purchase your kit.
Don't start with 0 mg juice. Start with a juice with nicotine until you transition off cigs to vaping, then reduce your nicotine if you like.
Batteries last about 1 hour per 100 mah so an ego battery will last from 7 hours up to 13 hours of consistant vaping depending on battery size.

Hi kerpalz and welcome to ECF. After 5 posts wait 1 hour and you can then post in the SG Vapers
After 6 posts you can send/ receive pms as that's the way they communicate in the Singapore Forum.
Good Luck, Vapoor.

After re-looking for these past few days, I've now set my eyes on VaporKing from v4l.com, I think the eGo would work, but I want to have the real cigarette look/feel.
That's a good choice. Sign up for the newsletter or check the steals and deals thread. They have amazing sales!
Here's one Hairball posted- hope it's still good.
