i have asked before but lost my print outs and cant find my thread,new to forums.
i'm 44 years young and have smoked marlboro reds since i was 15.
i think im going with the titan teec/tecc ? with manual battery. i've read that starter kits come with 10 carts and am not sure what pg/vg is or what to do with it.
how long does 10 carts last ?
how long do the attys last,should i order xtra ?
i only burn about 1 pack daily
i would like a good throat hit and lots of vapor.
are there any companies that pre-mix say marlboro strength of choclate or is that a stupid question ?
once my titan arrives i just charge the battery and then am i ready to go or do i need to do anything special as i have read about some people getting a real harsh, burning exp ?
thanks for you time and sorry for the school 101 questions.

510 with manual batts is a good start - lots of vapor and good throat hit.

PG/VG are the main 'liquid' parts of the ejuice with PG being animal protein based and VG being vegetable based. VG seems to produce more vapor but nothing to write home to mom about IMHO. Some folks are sensative to PG and either will "dry" you out so get ready to start drinking the water - but it's OK as it actually tastes good once you quit analogs :)

Extra atts are always smart....period. They are 1 of 2 (batts are the other) main failure components and just like the light bulbs in your house quit at the worse times, so will an atty from time to time so stock up if you can afford to.

Strenth of nic ranges from 0mg to 36-48mg. I was a pack-a-day, 100 lights smoker and find 18mg does the trick for me. Many folks find upping that to the 24mg (or 36mg) initially helps the transition from analogs to vaping.

You'll find EVERY flavor on the planet (and them some) to try - from tobacco favorites like Dunhill to bannanas and cream.....explore and enjoy.

Finally, 510's are a 3 piece setup - batt, atty, cart. You'll need to charge the batt, screw on the atty and then put a prefilled cart in and go. Press manual batt button down for 5-7 seconds while inhaling like the good ol' analog and you're vaping.

Read the tons of info here on ideas/care/maintenance/fun/etc... on being a 510 owner.

And oh yeah, welcome to ECF and the club!

ADD ON: for me, 1 cart was about 5 cigs tops! vaping is smoother and easier so you quickly stop worrying about the cart count and move to ml/day - I be at 6ml@18mg / day.

Good for you. I stopped my analogs the second day after I got my first e-cig - wife threw away the other 2 cartons I had left.

To date, it has been the ONLY time/way I have been analog free for more than 2 weeks!

PS: Not everyone can drop the analogs day one cold - many do 50/50 for awhile so don't be discouraged if you can't put 'em down day 1. Try higher nic, different/better flavor.
