2 Ego C Twist 1000 mah black batteries
1 Ego wall & usb charger
1 5 pack of Boge 510 low res cartomizers
3 10ml bottles of smoke juice

depending on how much you are going to vape, 10ml is not tgoing to last long.
I'm a chain vaper, and I vape between 3-6ml per day!
Usually, 1ml of juice gives the draws of 10cigs, depending on how long draws you take, and what equipment you got (this of course varies of you have a variable voltage battery and a low resistance atty)
But meybe you should consider if 3-4-5 days are enough to see if vaping is something for you, or you need a little more juice :) And even though you've tried it with the cheap small cigs, those are no match for some proper equipment, so I consider this to be your introduction to more proper vaping ;)
Good luck with it all, and good vaping!
But basically, what you ordered there, is what you need, unless you want another drip tip on the cartomizers. I prefer stainless steel driptips, as they tend to cool the vape ever so slightly.

I would suggest you see about some sample packs of juice from different vendors, as finding the right juice is a major part of having e-cigs work for you.

You might also want a dripping atty to test juices with, it is much easier to test with an atomizer, than filling a carto to then find you can't stand the juice. Cheaper in the long run as well.

Great ideas, I completely agree on this! A good dripping atty is a must have to test juices!
Personally, I use my Ikenvape 510 Cannons for the job, but they are a bit more costly and VERY thirsty!

Hi

I don't see any problem - you have all the basics covered to start. My only two observations are:

For starting with cartos that's cutting it a bit short. In general they don't last very long - 5 to 7 days each. (Some people do get more out of them. But it's not a good idea to count on that.) And as a new user if you make a mistake and burn one by not filling properly or letting it get too dry that pretty much kills it.

While you are figuring out your likes and dislikes stick to small bottles - 10 ml or even smaller sample sizes. The harder part of all this is not only figuring out what flavors you like - finding at least one you will consider your all day vape - you also need to figure out what nicotine level you need. Find a flavor you like, adjust the nic level if needed, and on your next order get a larger size of that and pick up more samples. (Don't forget more cartos!) Build your orders from there.

Best of luck!

    Usually 3.0 ohms for getting the most out of the twist- LR's are for little batts. A couple of drip tips too. An xtra charger.

    Don't overtighten the cartos on the batt, and don't charge overnite. Order more juice as soon as you like one flavor. Unflavored is a good backup option. Or longterm.

    Call congressman and tell him to make vaping legal everywhere and that your days of paying his salary with cigarette taxes are OVER.
     
    Because the Twist is variable voltage, you don't really need LR. I would get SR so you would be able to play with various voltages to find your sweet spoton the different e-liquids. Or get both resistances :)


    so basically which one is better low resistance or standard. . .I was thinking low resistance was better for the variable voltage

    Also a pair of fine nose tweezers to pull the posts down on your attys which will in time get pushed up, failing to make contact with the PV contact. This happens to everyone and the first time we all thought the entire rig was broken.

    Low resistance cartos are great for 3.7 PVs. The Twist goes from 3.3 to 4.8 so the 3.0 ohm cartos will allow you to vape at a higher voltage. Also get an atomizer for testing new juices- easier to clean if you get a foul tasting juice. I would also get either more cartos or a Vivi Nova 2.4 ohms.
    $8.95 and he throws in 3 heads at different ohms so you can test your VV at diff voltages:
    2.0ml clear tank
    1.8ohm Coil Head
    2.4ohm Coil Head
    2.8ohm Coil Head
