My first setup came in the mail!!!!

Smoant Battlestar
Uwell Crown III
Nightcore D2
LG HG2 18650S

Can't wait to use this, batteries are charging, sadly I'll have to wait until tomorrow because my local B&M closed before I had a chance to get some juice.

Shout out to EightVapes and IMR batteries for amazing service. And thank you all for the helping my find a good setup.

P.S. What are some good juices to look for. I have a bit of a sweet tooth ( I like pink lemonade, red velvet cake, cinnamon rolls, Gatorade, etc).

Congrats! Great feeling when you get set up.

Nice!

Looks nice, must have come from China, it's still upside down.

Congratulations! Woohoo!

As far as e juice, I could (and often do) vape cinnamon roll all day every day. It's a great flavor to vape, comes across in e juice beautiful. If you can't get cinnamon roll try for Apple pie. .

Other than that, follow your own tastes and just see which flavors you find vapable.

I am currently obsessed with a chocolate banana flavor. There is supposed to be strawberry in there too but I've yet to detect it.

You should probably try some sample packs. I get mine from Vapewild and Ohmsvape and get great service from both. They both have their versions of what you are asking about. Let us know how you like Uwell Crown III, I have one on order and hope it will get here some day. Bought it a week ago and it still hasn't made it to USPS.

Welcome and congrats. I don't really offer juice ideas much since there's so much selection. Sample flavors in small containers sound like a good idea to me, to get an idea of what types of e-juice flavors you are going to enjoy, or there may be a B&M near you that allows flavor testing? Might be worth checking out, if one is available.

Congratulations!! Looks like you made some good choices!

For juice, if you have just the one tank, probably best not to get flavors that are not compatible, so you won't have to worry about rinsing the tank and changing coils between flavors. So a cinnamon roll flavor followed by a cake flavor or a custard would be fine, but following with lemonade, maybe not so great. Lemonade followed by any sort of fruit mix would work well. Try to get the smallest sizes of e liquid you can in the beginning, to try the different tastes and also because you might change your nicotine level preference as you go along. Happy vaping!!

'Gratz! I hope it's everything you wanted.

Welcome! Hope you like your setup. Anna's probably right- there are soooo many juices out there. You should probably go to a local vape shop and sample as many as you can, until you can narrow down what you like (fruits, bakery, etc.). Their particular flavor might not be the best representation, but once you've narrowed it down, you can cruise the flavor threads here to see who might make the most popular, say Melon flavor, or whatever. But if you start buying full size of every juice, you could end up with hundreds of dollars in juice you don't really like (I've got more than I'd like to admit ). I won't be any help with flavor, because I'm just a tobacco guy. But if you spend some time and look around on this site, you'll find tons of knowledgeable and helpful people.

Good luck!

Sampling juices will definitely save money if you are looking to buy online, or you could purchase sampler packs until you get a sense of what you like. I bought WAYYYY too much vanilla to start with and I'm sorry I did because it's very hard on my throat, I don't vape it much. I'll occasionally use a tiny bit of the juice to sweeten something that might benefit from a hint of vanilla, but mostly it sits on my shelf, all 750 ml of it. That wasn't the greatest outcome for me, I'm glad I got into DIY. The regular ejuice forum General E-Liquid Discussion may be helpful for you as well for selecting juices.

Best of luck with it.

A little update since a few of you wanted to know what I thought about the Crown III. Been using daily all week and I am very happy with it. Keep in mind this is my first vape so I have very little to compare it to (before this I only tried my friends vape a few times).

The coil that comes preinstalled did require some break-in after prepping it (about a day of casual use), mostly just muted flavor but after break-in flavor was good.

I did some research about the Crown III in regards to going below the minimum line, most report that there are leaking issues when you start to approach empty along with less flavor due to loss of vacuum in the tank. In my experiences (going below min a few times) it never leaked or lost flavor.

My only gripes (extremely small) are that I cant seem to find any information on alternative drip tips and that the coils are a bit expensive. Side not on the Battlestar, sometimes navigating the menus is a little difficult because the fire button clicks both in and out, but as I use it I'm sure it will become second nature.

TLDR:
Entire set up works flawlessly with very little to nonexistent learning curve.

... very little to nonexistent learning curve.

Awesome. Good news.

If you sample and like it sample it more. I've bought juice I thought I liked until half way through a tank then didn't like the flavor or throat irritation. Also alot of vape shop sample tanks and mods are low wattage and the flavor can change when you ramp it up on your own setup.

+ 1 on that. Loved Indigo Duke, and loaded up. Less than 30 ml later it started really bothering me, and I couldn't use it anymore. Now I diy juice and still find that I might love a flavor for 10-20 ml then don't care about it anymore.

Well I have the same Uwell Crown 3 and I order the 0.5 coils from fasttech 4 coils pack for 10$ and they are perfect.Now waiting impatiently for the Uwell Valyirian to arrive.
