I have finaly decided to buy a e-cigarette and have tried reading about the different kinds. But it`s to much information.. Now i just feel lost.. :blink:

So could anybody help me find the one for me?

The goal is to stop smoking normal cigarettes.

I need something easy to use.
I think I would like it to be easy to draw on with good throat hit.
Something that won`t spill.
I don`t care to much about the size and look but I want one I don`t have to refill to often.
The price is not so important.

Any good suggestions?

One of the most highly recommended kits for just starting out is an eGo or Riva 510. They have decent battery life and are not so large that they will feel funny when first starting out.

You can pick up a decent priced ($30-$40) kit at Liberty Flights. That link takes you to the Riva 510 starter kits. Make sure you hit the 20% off icon in the top left corner to get a discount.

If you don't want to refill too often or drip on an atomizer, also pick up a box of Boge 510 2.0ohm cartomizers. They have a soft, easy to remove tip that makes them easy to fill. It's also easiest for many to get a cheap Delrin drip tip to place on the cartomizer. This makes it much easier for refilling and checking.

I'll second trouble2k's recommendations. eGo will probably be my next PV (still happy with my 401). Boge cartos are well known for their reliability and quality. Don't buy prefilled cartos, the liquid usually tastes awful. Get them empty and fill them yourself. I would suggest getting RY4 flavored liquid, most people think it's at least okay or very good and it's a reasonable replacement for tobacco.

The typical e-cig with cartomizers or attys is usually a smokers first choice. Another is the modified PV.

When I started looking into mods I had two things that I wanted. I wanted a PV that I could take to work and not worry about having enough cartomizers and juice to last me all day. I wanted to be able to be confident that my batteries would not run out several times a day.

I looked at the VV mods and saw that my juice problem would not be solved. Why would I want to have some huge battery and a cart to keep filling? Sure they are really sharp, precision made and big, but unless they have a juice bottle hanging off the side, they would not work for me.

I saw different tank systems, but they seemed to have problems of their own. When the battery would not hold a charge you had to replace half the PV.

The REO seemed the perfect choice. I looked at the other box mods that are out there also. But I was sold on the REO because it was mechanical, sturdy, solid aircraft grade aluminum, crafted with top of the line materials,and got good reviews all around. The two sizes available come with a 3ml. or 6ml. bottle for your juice. The 3.7V batteries last a long time.

As you can see by my avatar I now own 5 Reos.

I only wish my venture into e-cigs started with the REO, it would have saved me time and money.
