Hmm alright. The reviews about the batteries seem pretty bad though. Is there something I could do about this?

I wouldn't hold me to it, but that one looks like it may be a 3rd party recreation of the eGo. The eGo doesn't have an LED on the end and the LR markings on the case are not there on the OEM model. Also, I have heard no complaints thus far on the OEm models; as a general rule I find OEM items, atleast in the E-Cig world tend to be a higher quality manufactured item so if it were me I would look at going that route... it may have a higher price tag by a few bucks but its better than throwing your money at something your going to be unhappy with. I have had my share of knock offs and have always kicked myself for it in the end. Not to step on anyones toes of course, but thats my two cents. (c;

Here's a Riva carto kit that's nice. They also have e-powers

XL Riva SE Carto Kit | Sweet-Vapes E-Liquid

I'm actually really leaning towards this one right now. For the price, it seems that it can't be beat. Is Riva and KGO the same company? Or are they just 2 really similar companies. Also, if I buy the kit in the link you sent, I'll have everything that I need except the juice. JUICE RECOMMENDATIONS PLEASE?! :p

No, they're just different names for the ego type battery. Both are 510's.

Both are very nice pvs and you'll be happy with either choice. Go for cheaper, save your money for juice! I would recommend the boge 2.0 or smoktek 1.7 cartos. Both are great.

It's difficult to recommend juice to other people. Do you want sweet? Tobacco? I'd try a couple of each because you never know.

This is popular. I've tried it and it's on the sweet side if you like that.

If you like tobacco flavors, my sister smoked Marlboro and vapes Vapor station Tampa.

Do the boge 2.0 and the smoktek 1.7 cartos come prefilled? Or do they need to be filled? Hmmm as for flavors, I'm a Marlboro man. Huge on menthol, though I do like the sweets. I was thinking of mixing a menthol with some type of fruity and see how that works :p. There's just too many sites for juice so I'd rather start at a reputable place.

Edit: What is base PG/VG mixture?

That looks exactly like my Kgo! Same specs, too. I like it a lot; I think that will serve you well. The only difference is that the Kgo came with 2 atomizers and yours comes with 5 cartomizers. Much more useful! You will just need to pick up an atomizer and drip tip for testing juices.

Just ordered it! Wonder how long it will take for it to get in. I'm hoping everything I order comes on the same day so I can start vaping asap.

Excellent! Glad you found something you like :) You did make sure to put some e-liquid in that order right? :p Those cartomizers will be empty and you'll have to fill them before you can vape.

I'm actually browsing through some websites trying to find some e-liquid that catches my eye. So far I found that rawrvapor.com has some appealing juices. What's even better is that you can add menthol to any of the juices that they have for no extra charge. I'm looking to buy a couple more juices just to test out new waters :p. I bought my kit with the 1.5 dual coils.

Looks like your research and questions are paying off well for ya ;) What you're getting sounds just peachy.

Welcome Elementz..Good people around here, they'll point you in the right direction. Nothing wrong with the E-go / K-go type kits. That's what I have now. Batteries last a long time. I do have a VV on order though, so I can dial up a bit bigger hit. I'd say the important thing is to just get going on a kit, find what flavors you like, and just ease yourself into doing it without analogs...the sooner you get off the cancer sticks the better. Your lungs will thank you for it. Best of luck from one newbie to another! :toast:

What are some good websites that sell juices?

I've had really good results with just about everything I've ordered from pinkspotvapors.com and evaporclouds.com . Worth checking out, to see if the flavors grab you. (I've got juice reviews in the link in my signature.)
