I see so many postings about getting a set up and what works vs. what doesnt, so I thought I would share my 2 cents on what works for me. I am not big into voltage and twisting things, nor do I care about having the "coolest" things on the market. I enjoy vaping, but its not huge focus, just something I want to do instead of smoking. I want my stuff to work when I want to vape, no questions. Here is what I suggest, especially if you are new and want to get started and enjoy your liquid.
First of all, Get some Ego batteries, and a passthrough (allows you to vape while it charges, then get some vivi nova (mini) tanks with some extra atomizer heads. You can clean these out when they dont operate properly, which is a must when you use VG juice, which is what I use because PG gives me a headache and stuffy nose. Next, find some quality juice and ALWAYS stay away from the super dark juices. I dunno what flavors you like, but Johnson's Creek, High Brow, and MtBaker all make some fantastic VG liquids that tend to be thinner. If you want, you can add 2-3 drops of distilled water.
When you clean your tank parts, soak the atomizers in alcohol for 24 hours, since you have extras, this is not an issue. After that, boil the suckers in distilled water to remove the ethanol and impurities. Let them dry, they are ready to reuse for many, many cycles. Keep your battery head terminals clean with qtips and always have back ups read and chraged. The passthrough helps to ensure you can constantly vape.
When you first fill a tank, before you screw onto battery, take a few long sucks to draw up the juice and start the wicking process. This is all you need to do to have a positive vaping experience and to enjoy this whole thing. You dont need fancy mods or batteries, glass heads that tell time and sing you to bed at night, or any of that. Just get some joytech batteries, make 1 a pass through, and some mini nova tanks..................viola.
And one more thing, I dont like the Kagner tanks at all. They have an airy draw that can give you a headache from sucking so hard. They also leak and I have never had luck with them.
I promise if you take my advice, you will enjoy vaping. You dont need expensive "mods" or batteries, or any of that variable voltage stuff. It complicates it all to unnecessary levels and gets confusing. I like to fill, puff, refill, sleep, and then puff again. I dont have time for problems or crap.
What have you all found to be the best intro to vaping equipment? I think if it appears too complicated, it can turn potential vapors off as its easier to just go to the gas station and buy a pack of regular ciggs. When I first got here, I was so confused with all the terms and talk about wattage and voltage. Who has time for it?

VAPING IS HARD WORK! It takes planning and diligence. One must remember to put spent batteries in their charger or they will not be able to use their battery device. No charged-up batteries means no vaping.
If the FDA decides to go hard core with their Deeming Regulations of e-cigs, we could see the end of the flavored pre-filled cartridges as we know them today.
