just ordered my first ecig.

[louis1]

hello,

ive litrally just found out about ecigs the other day when one of my customers let me toke on his.
i was pretty impressed.

so after a few days of researching ive discovered this little vapeing world i knew nothing about.
im really looking forward to getting it

i went for a cheap 510 starter kit and also a piper tank.

i was so confused what to get.. nearly went green smoke, but cost put me off.

what is considered the best/most reliable model?

dse 801 kept popping up, oh well, i suppose i will learn as i go, what is good and what is not!

anyway can anyone suggest any good uk dealers for me?

kind regards

louis

Congratulations on the decision to quit analogs louis! Best of luck to you. I just got mine in yesterday, and I can tell you it will be a long few days waiting for it haha. My roommate told me "I'm glad you finally got that damn thing, I'm tired of hearing you talk about it". LOL

Hi, Louis! Welcome to ECF and congrats on deciding to make the switch! I'm so excited for you!

Have you checked out Liberty-Flights? They have a UK site and a US site. They have wonderful customer service and quick, cheap shipping!

I order a Joy Joy Electronic Cigarette Starter Kit fairly cheap and it works well. I've had it about a week now. I'm working on finding flavors to try now.

I second this. I got my Ego from LF and they are excellent!

When I first found out about E-CIGS, I was in Seattle WA, I bought the NCIG PRO by njoy at a Pilot Truck Stop. I was quite impressed with it. The only thing I did not like was the automatic battery. Now I bought a JOYE 510 with manual batteries. Battery life isn't great, but lots of vapor. I like it alot

Get a passthrough and/or an eGo battery for longer life as well as improved vapor in that you can use a low resistance atomizer with the latter. I also swear my 510 passthrough provides better vapor than even a fully charged 510 battery but that may be in my head and/or other factors.

Also note there's a newer PV on the market called the ECHO which apparently has the first auto battery that is supposed to be worth a crap. Obviously, when properly functional this can be even more like smoking a cigarette besides freeing up both hands for other things.

Good idea not getting Greensmoke. It is KR808D-2, the incompatible near-twin of the more popular KR808D-1 (Vapor4Life and also available just as plain KR808D-1)

510 is a fine starter though it has short battery like of 180mah (where 100mah is approximately an hour of moderate use). I recommend manual batteries. You might want to pick up a 510 mega xl manual battery (see LiteCigUSA.net for example) for 3 reasons -
60% more charge life so it's a great backup to bring along
Manual so you can safely use a drip tip with the atomizer and safely use refilled cartomizers (2 most popular methods of vaping)
Just to try manuals (if you did not get manuals)

Most people here vape and recommend manual batteries and the 510 manuals are especially nice because the threaded end is totally sealed. Autos are more easily damaged or killed by juice leaks because they are totally dependent on a drag sensor right inside the hole in the middle of their threaded end. If dripping or cartos leak, that is where the juice will go. Also - autos can sometimes turn on accidentally from wind or vibration. And I think manuals give you more control of your hit.

A very nice PCC for 180mah Joye 510 is at NoSMokeVA.com (search for PCC)

And a super-backup as well as upgrade path is an Ego or Riva 510 or even just one charged battery (they use a different charger too strong for slim 510). I carry a 750mah Riva battery with me. Best plave to buy is Liberty-Flights.com and press the 20% off int he upper left of front page first.

I also recommend Boge 510 cartomizers on 510 (you have to use tsndard resistance, not LR).

Congrats!!!!!!!!! I have a 510 kit that I love. I do use cartos though. I also have the ego battery's which is great for all day.

Good start and as others have said, there are so many choices, I think the Riva or eGo from LibertyFlights in the UK is a great deal and works well for a starter kit.
