My 1st Vaping Session - Suggestions Please?

[etherealm]

I have been lurking this forum for three straight days, watched a video from mistressnomad, and now wanting a 510 or an 808. I tried searching for suppliers here in the forum and found Liberty Flights (they have paypal option, which is great) and Freedom Smoke USA but all starter kits that i like (510 / 808) are OUT OF STOCK!

I went to my local Cig shop here in our place and got sold by the store owner with the "30-day warranty" or "free trial" of knight sticks, It was not that satisfying, not to mention bad reviews here. Now Im thinking of returning the basic pack (bought it for $20 plus tax) tonight and just buy a kit online....


any suggestions on where to buy affordable kits online (with good customer service). I just hope freedom or liberty will have stock soon.

any suggestions are highly appreciated.

http://http://www.primevapor.com/ They have the KR808D-1. $49 for the starter kit. I can say their customer service is excellent. My daughter and I both ordered from them online.

Try Vapor4Life for an 808D-1 starter kit. They have a good reputation here and quite a few people are regular customers. I would suggest that you buy either extra cartomizers or blank cartomizers and juice so you can refill them yourself. You might also want to check out the PCC kits so you can charge on the go!

Liberty Flights has a great warranty on their items- 2 months for an atomizer, 6 months for a battery. Trust me, this matters.

I love my ego. Liberty Flights has one for $29.99, you can start with that and eventually add a tank, or get the ego-T and add a box of cartomizers.

thanks for the replies guys, im vaping with a knight stick that I bought a while ago while waiting for your suggestions..

thanks a heap and Im definitely getting my 20 bucks later tonight.

I would suggest Vapor4life or Cigeasy for a starter kit.
Def invest in extra cartomizers and juice

I highly recommend NOT getting either a 510 or an 808 model UNLESS you currently smoke less than about half a pack per day. You'll soon learn to dread the short battery life. Start right away with either an eGo (the big battery version of the 510) or an Elegant Easy (the big battery version of the 808) if you smoke more than 3/4 pack a day.

If you want the 510, make sure you buy tons of extra batteries.

I agree with you Rosa.

Edit: The Elegant easy only has a 7 day warranty. That would concern me.

I had to return an atty & my pass-through this week and both are thankfully under warranty. Thank God!

Thanks for this (good info), Im a light smoker that is why I aim for a 510 or an 808. Its just that all starter kits that I have seen on sites are either out of stock or not have such hardware.

litecigusa.net is a good vendor, they have a wide variety of stuff at decent prices...

+1 the eGo/Riva as a starter device... if it's 'too big' you can downsize... but for many heavy smokers, it's not too big

 

[Rosa]

I'll second litecigusa, they are a great vendor.

Vapor4Life
Vapor King Premium E-Cig Kits and Cases - Vape On!

They're having a sale, don't know when it ends. If you spend $50, use princess23 and get 23% off. Spend $80 use princess28 and get 28% off.

 

[knobbysmoo]

I agree with Rosa, eGo is the way to go when starting.

 

[Rosa]

... but if you don't smoke much now (like 1/2 a pack per day or less) you'll do well with either the 510 or the 808.

Best of luck

Hmmm I smoked about 1.5 pad and am doing fine with the 808. I have 2 batteries and have not had one run out before the other was charged as of yet.

Just a suggestion- maybe get another battery. If something happens to one, you'll be up sh**ts creek waiting for one to charge.

Maybe it just depends on how much you vape then. I never used an 808 (280 mah) but when I used the 510 (180 mah) I could go through one in an hour on a heavy vaping day (spent most of my time vaping and staring at my charger with a worried look on my face) -- I imagine that the extra 100mah offered by the 808 would have got me another half hour to an hour more of vaping time. I figured I'd need to carry about 6 batteries if I worked an 8 hour day plus 45 minute commute each way.

I've bought from totally-wicked in the past and been quite pleased with their service and prices. They also take paypal.
