Need help on purchasing new E-cig kit or complementary components.

[dany]

Hi every body,
I have recently switched to E-cig after 12 years of smoking, while I purchased my first kit M403 from litecigusa , I have a mixed feeling about my experience, first I haven't convinced by the performance of this kit although it did a moderate job regarding vaping but a very bad performance regarding batteries, litecigusa thankfully have refunded back the kit's cost after I told them about very bad performance of the batteries which were not working more than 5 min just after 4 days of use. Now I was thinking to get some new batteries for the same kit when I discovered that my second atomizer does not work at all, I am thinking either to buy a new kit ( I don't know if it does make sense to buy parts for the M403 kit while I have now only one atomizer and charger) or return to smoking, pls help me I don't want to get back to smoking while at the other hand I am little frustrated while doing my final exams.

I love my Inferno kit from Volcano ecigs. They are larger than a cigarette size if you are comfortable with that. One 1000mAh battery which lasts all day, plus a 650mAh battery which is a smaller size, BUT it has the ability to be powered directly from a USB port, so if you're close to a PC or have an adapter for a wall outlet, you can vape all day and not even be using any battery power.

nhaler.com man, the shipping is super fast. And if battery life is what you are looking for; then go with the 510 Ego.
The Ego has two options as far as battery life is concerned. There is a 650mah battery which is more than enough
for a days vape. Then there is the 900mah battery which will last you even longer. Not to mention the higher output
of 3.7 volts in a reasonably small device makes for higher performance in the atomizer and you get more vapor and
throat hit. Or you can even check out revolvercig.com if the ego just isn't your style. The portable charging case for
their infiniti-ion model is amazing. Not to mention that the ions 902 atomizer has awesome taste and vapor production.
But whichever route you take, both sites are awesome; but I will have to say that Revolver's customer service is
top notch. Anyways..good luck finding what fits your needs and happy vaping.

That all depends on how much you vape> when I started with an EGO I was going through 4 batteries a day so I moved into mods even at that, I'll still kill a 3000mAh battery in less than a day!

eGo is definitely the way to go.

I vaope almost constantly. My 650mAh battery ( standard with a kit ) lasts anywhere between 4-6 hours and my 900mAh battery is good for an entire day. Before you buy be sure to look at several sites for sales and coupon codes. There are several reputable vendors and their prices can vary from week to week.

Hello Dany and Welcome to the forums,

Sorry to read about your problems with your M403. Glad to read you were dealing with a reputable supplier like LiteCig so you were refunded your money. Based on what I read, you are committed to vaping. I can understand you not wanting to return to smoking.

Smaller batteries only run for a short period of time before you need to re-charge them. Larger batteries, like the eGo, Hello016, Riva (and others) will provide you with anywhere from 4 hrs to 12 hrs of vaping, depending on the battery size. If you are going to vape, I suggest you look at these larger batteries. They will provide you with the best vaping experience and the least frustration.

I started with the 510's and wish I would have started with one of the larger batteries. It would have saved me a lot of money, trial & error, frustration, etc. The batteries I just mentioned are available in kits, and you can also purchase the battery without buying the kits. This means that when one battery dies, you can simply replace it and not shell out money for another full kit.

Regarding suppliers. You already know the merits of dealing with a reputable supplier. I've seen other posts here where people are simply out their money. ECF has many, many top notch suppliers here in this forum. They are reputable and trusted by this community.

If you are questioning a supplier or want more info on a supplier, please come back here and ask for feedback. The members here are always eager to give feedback on suppliers, equipment, juices, etc.

Hope this has helped a little.
Happy Vaping and WELCOME to ECF

I'd like to second PKJ regarding the larger batteries. I recently ordered a "mega" battery for my 510 and couldn't be happier. Before if I was vaping constantly I'd have to change batteries every 30 minutes.

Also please make sure to clean the batteries, I thought my batteries had died at first cause they got so dirty from the ejuice that they stopped charging. A little rubbing alcohol and a q-tip and they were back to normal (my original 2 batteries for the 510 lasted somewhere around 6 months before they started losing charge noticably).

good advice from above...hang in there man!.
i was a 34 yr smoker and quit cigs in 3/4 days after enjoying taste and nic fix from juice.

chepest way to go 4 me was checking out a cheap usb passthru non battery type from madvapes i believe.
freedomsmokeusa.com is maybe cheapest now with genuine joy ego megabatterys and mega attys ,carts etc. coupon code smoke.... mega is way longer vapin between filling up juice

Thanks, I am still not able to decide which type should I switch to, besides my current financial situation does not allow me to spend a lot of money on that, as a tech guy I welcome any suggestions of a a good DIY parts for Mods or E-cig, Although I don't don't have much experience on it but i can handle such a case easily.

Check Madvapes, I believe they have some simple, low cost, box mod kits. Then add a decent couple of batteries and charger (Madvapes almost certainly sells them, though I believe you can also get good pricing from other places -- do a Google search when you see what battery type you will need -- don't forget to only buy protected batteries unless the kit has its own, separate, protection circuit).

Thanks, markfm Madvapes seems a very good resource supply.
