Like almost all new jacks my first e cig had to look like a real cigarette. Although I did choose a black kit with blue led it still had to have the same size of a real one. Its been almost a month now since taking my first vape and I'm over the it gotta look like a cigarette thing. My new thing is battery life for on the go, I want to leave the PCC at home and stop changing batteries every 90 minutes. I am happy with my pv it gives excellent TH & clouds of vapor and will still use it at home but I just need bigger batteries so I've ordered the eGo from janty and some 510 cartomizers from liquidXpress. Hope this keeps me satisfied for more than a month!!!

BTW: who said that vapping is cheaper than analogs?

My new eGo allows me to vape ALL Day (8-10 hours) before I need to re-charge. (and I'm a very heavy vaper!... lol) ... This is an 'investment' you'll never regret. The vapor production & flavor is fantastic right up until the very 'second' the led blinks to indicated you're due to re-charge. I know of no other PVs that can boast this outside of the Joye 510s and the Janty eGo. I've NEVER had any problems with my Joye 510 or Janty eGo atomizers either... I'm still using my original ones that I received in Jan 2010!
PV's were pretty "costly" until I found the right ones.... and the "right ones" for me were the 510s and the eGos... no regrets whatsoever. ;)
Like I always say: "Leggo my eGo!!!!!" :lol:

When I was ordering my 510 kit this week, I also wanted it to look as close to a real cig as possible. So I went with a white auto, then i also got a black manual for kicks. Now, I am finding I don't care, because I'm only using one of the two attys for now, on either e-cig while the other charges in the PCC. The result? I have black/white e-cigs lol! :p

Hmmmm it only costs me about 20 cents a day i wonder whats up with your 510 i still have my same parts since the very beginning .
I have been vaping since feb. 15th.
Sorry to hear that its not cheaper for you.
I guess because i choose to use 4 at a time and rotate maybe thats why they last longer.

Still have all my parts from the starter kit and all additional spares that I ordered 3 days after my first vape. When I smoked analogs I only bought Marlboro 72 blue. Now, there are so many pv's & liquids out there that I want to try, I've placed an order every week since receiving my starter kit for something e cig related.

Hope this phase wears off soon!

wow either you vape constantly, or the batts on 510 leave a lot to be desired. I have used my kr808 to satisfy my cravings over the last two days taking 4-6 puffs every hour or two, and one batt has lasted for two entire days without dying.

Maybe I'll change my tune after I get a little more experience under my belt, but right now my device MUST look like a cig. When you start dragging out "screwdrivers" and Chucks, or "drink box" vaporizers, my worry is that people will immediately start thinking you're smoking crack, or .... or god knows what. I don't even need people to THINK that I'm standing around outside work, or at the local park getting blitzed on illegal and dangerous substances.

As a smoker, I am used to smoking either on breaks during work hours, or a few cigs an hour when I'm out an about. I guess I could probably be using more nic, but for me the PV is replacing my smoking habit with a safer option, and I am doing my best to use vaping in the same manner as I was using cigs.

Right now at least, I am more than satisfied with the effect I am getting from 4-6 good puffs (from 24mg cart) every 60-90mins, or as needed if I get stressed and just need a hit right then.

I feel your pain, i have bought 2 510 starter kits, eGo starter kit, vp pt, and now I just ordered a silver bullet lol.

I really wish I would have just started out with the sb with 3.7 batteries and upgraded to 6v batteries down the road. At first I was looking for something about the same size as an analog but that goes by the wayside after vaping for a little while.

Oh well, at least I got to experience all of these e cigs. I really liked all of them when I got them, I feel like I outgrew them lol.

    Yep, same here Brian. I have tried a lot of different ones. Started out with the gotta look like a cig thing,white even and now I am using a Tornado and waiting for a juice box lol. Only thing I am careful of is driving. I don't want to get stopped by the police and have to explain that whole thing, it would be embarrassing.

    hahaha, at this point, I'm so happy I wouldn't care if it looked like a rubber chicken! If it gives good TH and lots of vapor - I'm vaping it!

    You should like the eGo.

    I was in a hurry to try vapor & skipped the "its gotta look like a cigarette" phase.
    :cool:

    Changing bats. a lot doesn't sound bad, but charging them does ...

    janty only had white eGo's in stock (well until a couple of days ago) and I wanted a black one so bad I ordered the battery & cone from them and since they where also outta fast eGo chargers I had to order that from China (heavens gift). Seems HG sells there cones for $6 less than janty so I ordered a silver & a white one from them also.

    Just because it can be cheaper doesn't mean it has to!!!!!!

    Lots of hobbies cost more and don't do as much to help out your lungs, although I think ALL hobbies help out your stress level and add quality time to your life as well as extending it.

    Vape on my fellow hobby friends.

    Seriously, this is the first hobby I have ever had that was good for me.
