between here and there
Hello and welcome.
We have many members here from across the pond, and ECF actually was founded by a member from over there. LOL
I can direct you to the UK forum, but first you need 5 posts here in the new members thread in order to post there.
I think the tank system would be better than a blu e-cig. Blu was actually one of the two I started with and quite simply wasn't strong enough to keep me off of reg cigs.

Do you have a shop anywhere near you where you can go and look at what they have? If you don't know, I am sure one of the UK members will join in shortly.

Here is a link for the UK forum

Hello and welcome! Quitting smoking is the best decision you could make and I am so happy that I have been able to walk away from the stinkies.

Just like you, I had many questions and ECF helped me immensely! I would have a look at the thread I started which is full of useful info. Hopefully it benefits you and good luck!

I decided on a Innokin iTaste VV V3 starter kit which cost me less than what I was spending a week on smokes. It included everything I needed with the exception of the juice. I haven't touched or had the desire to smoke since I started vaping and wouldn't turn back. I myself tried the Blu disposables which did absolutely nothing for me. I would highly suggest a tank system!

For the same money as you're going to spend on a few Blu pen-type cigalikes, I would strongly recommend getting yourself an ego style battery for starters. I got the Ego Twist and Vision Spinner combo seen here and they are more than enough for a beginning vaper. Even some guys that have been vaping for awhile love these things.

As for the juice delivery system...there are tons of options. Tanks, clearomizers, atomizers, etc. It really comes down to personal preference and some trial and error...part of the fun is in the discovery. Personally, I started with bottom coil clearomizers and am now looking to try some cartomizer tank setups.

I'm newish myself (and have no experience with the EU thing) but I've found this place to be a great resource. Check out the geography-based forums, I'm sure there is a lot of EU information there.

Good luck!

I am prob there between on smoking :D but i think i get thisEVOD Premium Bundle after these tips here and my little research it seems best for me ^^ and its what Dan_ recomended :D

The kit Dan suggests is from ukecigcabin. I can vouch for this vendor, having used them many times.
How do the prices compare? ukecigcabin would normally be 10+% cheaper than the bigger companies. (if they post to Finland)

Hi Jiriman. Been there. I wouldn't start with those blu e-cigs. Tried those and they suck...no pun intended. And flavors are extremely limited. Also, try not to support those evil cigarette manufacturers that are trying to get e-digs banned. They already did that at universities and in limited public spaces...at least where I live. Try to support your small vape manufacturers like Cal Modz, Bear Brass Mods, or even the Chinese manufacturers (Egos by Joyetech or Smoktech). They make clones of the expensive mods like Nemesis, Chi You, etc. I don't particularly like the clones, but its an inexpensive way to test out the mechanical mods (aka Advanced Personalize Vaperizers) without spending a buttload of cash. I personally went from the Ego Twist-C to the K101, to the mechanical mods...had to save up to get a few of those...but the mech mods with the different atomizers (genesis, tank, drip/RDA) that produces the closest sensation of smoking. There are loads of websites that sell both clones and the genuine stuff.

Yeah, I recommended ukecigcabin as I have dealt with them before and they deliver genuine Kanger products - they have guides on their website to help you spot fakes/clones.

Kanger stuff is widely imitated/faked, so you need to be a little bit careful if you want a genuine Kanger. The listing on ecigwizard does not refer to Kanger at all, so I would assume they are clones. That doesn't mean there will necessarily be anything wrong with them - it is just important to make an informed purchase; I recently got an unbranded protank mini copy at a local shop (because it was on a special half price offer) and it's perfectly good - but the staff very clearly stated that it was not a Kanger.

Good luck fella. I would agree with the previous post to bypass the cigalikes. I would go with an ego twist and a couple of evod tanks for starters. I still use these occasionally and I've been vaping for over a year now.

Cigalikes - Are like a movie trailer. They give you a taster, but don't last very long and leave you wanting more.

EGo style batteries and tanks - Are the movie itself. They give you a solid more satisfying experience, that lasts a lot longer.

Mod, mechs and rebuildable - Are a personal showing of the directors cut with special features in 3d (if thats your thing) in an i-max. However, tickets aren't all that cheap.

Holy analogies Batman!
