Just bought my first kit

[AndyJem]

Hi all
New to the forum.
Just bought my first kit for me and my partner - we're both going on th E-Cigs from Friday (when the kit gets delivered)

We've ordered (from Totally Wicked):

Titan 510 (2 x ECigs plus charger etc etc)
Spare manual batteries
Spare Atomisers
Empty Cartridges
e-liquid (Menthol)
PCC Charging Cases

We wanted to be prepared as we both smoke 20 menthols a day!

Does anyone have any advice for our forthcoming first day on Friday?

Cheers for a great forum!

Grats on your first e-cigs. I started vaping 1 week ago and havent touched an analog since i opened the box. Still have a half pack of Newports sitting on the table in front of me and I have no urge to touch those things.

Good choice, lots of folks are very happing with these.
It's an "old standby" and reliable.

I would however suggest buying a few "mega" batteries.
You will know why after a few re-chargings of the kit batteries.

Oh, and welcome to the forum

Lots of helpfull folks here.
Let us know how your doing w/ your first PV kit.

Congrats! I agree, great choice on for a first model Looks like your first day vaping on Friday is going to work out juuuuust fine. Btw - once you've made the transition and have begun saving a little $ (if that's a concern) you might think about getting eGo/Tornado parts (battery, cone, charger adapter - all compatible with the 510 gear you have now) to add to your collection. The batteries last me all day and it's nice to have that security and not needing to switch and charge all the time Happy Vaping!!!

Good Luck!! You will be amazed at how well the e-cigs work. I started vaping last week (02/19/10) and I had a half pack of analogs in purse...I kept them there for a security blanket...well yesterday I gave them to a friend..now the only security blanket I keep in my purse is a spare battery. I have not touched an analog since....I don't even think about them. Be patient...you may need a little practice with the e-cigs..but you'll do fine.

Welcome, It has been two whole weeks for me.....and for someone who smoked for over 30 yeas (1-2 packs a day)....This is fantastic.....Bought an Ego and love it...
Was a guest on this forum for about 3 weeks just learning and it paid off alot....
Good Luck....
Later,
PaulCincy...

Welcome to the forum. Just want to say if you're using one kit for two people you will definitely want more batteries depending on the number of spares you purchased. Best of luck I'm sure you'll enjoy it once you get use to it.

hi,
i'm new here too, and new to vaping. today is my 3rd day and i have to say... my best day so far. it's been a real pleasure to vape, now i finally know what i'm doing. lucky ou bought spare batteries, as they die every couple of hours. that's the only downfall, but a small downfall when you consider the alternative.... analogs.
the folks here are just fantastic. all helpful and inspiring.
have fun!

Welcome and good choice in the switch to digital
I am almost 2 weeks in with a 510 and it is totally up to the job, but as said, you may want a few more batteries for 2 people and a PT may be useful as well.

Enjoy and keep it up

 

[BradSmith]

Congrats, I hope you like it as much as I do. Keep them batteries charged. Oh and if you find yourselves coughing try to take a mouth hit first and then slowly take the smoke into your lungs.

Have fun.

So, it all arrived this morning and the analogues are in the kitchen drawer!
only a couple of hours into it but initial thoughts are superb.
I guess I'm vaping around a drag every 10mins. Takes a good couple of sucks to get good vapour.
The instructions said only drip 3-4 drops on the empty cartridge - I'm sure I can get a lot more in than this - looking at the fluval method which seems a good way forward!
Battery is still going stong after 2 hours (around 12 drags)

Thank you to everyone for their advice and support.
We'll get some more batteries and are picking up an ultrasound cleaner today for cleaning the attys (and other household things aswell)

I'll have a good look around for different e-fluids. I think we are going to mix our own in future as it seems the cheapest (and most fun) way to do it
VG vs PG? I'll see what everyone's written about this.

Thanks all
Andy

Hi AndyJem! Glad to hear the analogs are in the drawer and that things are off to a good start DIY sounds like a lot of fun - and there is a TON of info in that section of the forums.

You asked about PG vs. VG: here's a great bit on the basics at: vapewithpuff

Happy Vaping!

 

[AndyJem]

Thanks tarheeldan for the link - great blog and really useful.
There's so much choice and so much to think about - this is going to be a full time hobby (well that's better than a full time addiction me thinks!)

Had my first day on vaping and it's been great for both of us. No withdrawal symptoms at all...really weird!

Even went to my bank and had a little vape in the queue - no-one batted an eyelid.
Went to the supermarket and walked down the aisles - had a little vape - no-one batted an eyelid.
Drove home in the car with the windows shut (it's freezing here!) - had a little vape - no smelly, smoke-filled car.

Ashtrays have been washed and put away. Both of us feel really positive about this.

Thanks

 

[tarheeldan]

Gotta love it huh? And those ashtrays look nice all clean with a sleek PV in there instead of a burning .... Really happy to hear no withdrawals - it's not the same for everyone though I was lucky to be in the same camp as the both of you.

 

[Iwannaquit4good]

Congrats Congrats to you both!!! Yeah! Going on 2 months smoke free here, because of the Joy510 and great support! Glad to hear your having a great experience! Grocery store isn't so boring anymore for me hehe!!!Those ashtrays do look sleek with the sexy e-cig chilling

 

[lightinup]

Welcome and congratulations to the both of you on your first day of vaping! Doesn't take long to see and feel all the wonderful aspects of vaping! Keep us posted on your progress!

 

[razputin]

Welcome. It sounds like you're both off to a great start. I've been at it for almost 3 weeks now. There was some adjustment period in becoming familiar with all the parts. Make sure you have extras of everything in case something dies on you. Happy vaping!
