My First Try with E Cigs

[Noreen]

Sent the whole Zerocig system back today. Starting over after all the great advice I've received here. THANKS ALL!!!

Now, looking for all of your opinions. Spent the last days doing research. Tentatively decided on the Joye eGo-T (tank system).
Anybody recommend a really reliable supplier of this system????
Will probably chain vape so looking looking for a good supplier of 6 mg nic juice in total menthol to start with.

And ideas you great folks???????
Thank you, thank you, thank you

Noreen, If I ordered the tank system I'd also get some cartos. Or get a kit and purchase the tank at a later date. I'm just saying that because the tank isn't without some problems for some people and you have to fiddle with it a lot. You have to clean it, maybe fool with the wick (which is microscopic).

I got the tank when it came out and I was extremely happy at first. I read the positive reviews (most people had just gotten the tank) and tried it. My first atty died after 2 weeks. The second one I could never get to work properly at all. I tried taking it apart, watched all the videos, just always vaped like burnt plastic.

If you decide on the tank system, get a box of cartomizers as a backup in case you have issues with the tank so you'll still be able to vape.

When the tank works, it's great. When you have issues, your stuck.

As far as supplier, LF is good. Cignot is great and they have excellent customer service. If you have a problem, Vicky will answer your email immediately.

Thanks Swedish! But, now am a little more confused. Can you order a tank system and pre-filled cartridges will also work with it??

If the battery threads are the same a lot of options will fit the battery, i.e. eGo battery----tank and tank atty-----atty+cart ----cartomizer----most of the prefilled taste like crap as you have found out so the above 3 use juice. If you are looking for prefilled-then look at the KR808-d at vapor4life.com.... not as much battery life as an eGo but it is the 2nd most popular device behind the Joye brand.

The tank kit is the battery plus the tank atomizer and tanks that fit on the atomizer. You fill the tanks with juice. The same battery can be used with cartomizers.

An ego kit is the battery, carts & atty or the cartomizer kit which is the cartomizer and battery. If you get this kit you can purchase the tank atomizer and tanks to try out. I've seen the tank atomizer on sale at good prophets for $9 and a box of tanks for $6.

Try the tank kit, but get some cartomizers too. Or get the riva cartomizer kit and get a tank atty & tanks. It'll end up costing probably about the same. Then you can do either one-- use cartomizers or try out the tanks.

Get some good juice- If you smoke menthol, try Backwood Brew menthol or lots of people like Halo's menthols.

Get that, and a box of cartomizers.

I agree with ordering cartomizers. My tank lasted about a week before it started leaking with the cheap plastic cap that came with the kit. I could order one of the rubber caps instead of using the plastic one. I actually started out on my ego with an ego mega kit from litecigusa.net that wasn't the tank system, and I ordered some 510 boge cartomizers to go with the kit. So once my tank (won that kit in a contest) started leaking I just went back to my cartomizers I'd gotten used to. The tank system would occasionally taste burnt out of nowhere (since it was still half full) and take awhile to clear up. I don't get that with the cartos unless I run them REALLY dry which is easy to avoid. Just my $.02

Did you mention what nic level you ordered? Sorry if you did, I don't see mention of it. Too high a nic level could also make you feel sick (aside from the awful taste). You may have to adjust your nic level down, depending.

I chain vape at 6mg. If I tried that at anything higher than 12mg I think I'd feel pretty green for quite awhile.

Just a quick reply to thank you for advice. I found out their pre-loaded carts with the starter kit were Marlboro Menthol flavor at 24 mg nic. WOW! No wonder I was sick!
