Need some help on a decision!

This is about as basic/inexpensive you can get and still get an authentic joyetech. It's not fancy, but I quit with this kit (which I paid far more for). The cartridges are easy to use (they are empty, so you need juice), but boring - I went from here to Stardust clearos and Vivi Mini Novas.

ElectronicStix.Com · Original Joye eGo Starter Kit with 510 Atomizers (650 mAh Kit)

+juice

ElectronicStix.Com · Vivi Nova Slim 2.0ML Tank
ElectronicStix.Com · Kanger EVOD Bottom Coil Changeable Cartomizer

This site doesn't have a great selection of clearos, but the price for the kit is good.

I took a look at the links and i'm likeing it but have a few questions first...

Is it reliable? Will it last me? will i want more? the tank, is there any maintenance? or how is it done? I like the idea of putting the e juice in a tank and thats it, i would rather that then onto a cloth in a cart. My preferred outcome:
Nice battery -> Tank -> my mouth.

I'm new so explain to me, if you dont mind, how i could accomplish this.

THANKS
 
I think i'm understanding now...

the starter kit you linked ( Joye eGo Starter Kit with 510 Atomizers ) are good batteries but the carts i shouldnt use. instead use ONE of the two tanks you linked with it and done. So the ( Joye eGo Starter Kit with 510 Atomizers ) connected to ONE tank filled with e juice and thats it? sorry if i sound stupid; i'm just beginning to understand this all!
EDIT:
watching this:

thats the type of set up i'd like. I don't care how bulky it is or not; but thats what i'd like. A LONG lasting battery, a nice tank (thats clear for me to see whats left or somewhat clear) and a removeable tip to fill it.

EDIT2:
After a bit of research and suggestions; i went ahead and ordered both those tanks ocelot posted (i know i just need 1 but hey why not try both) and the starter kit he linked as well. this will be all i need + my juice correct?

thanks guys again; seriously i've yet been welcomed/helped from a community in any field as nice as this!

My kit, which is the same that I linked to is going strong at 8+months. I didn't mean you shouldn't use the cartridges (as you asked in a subsequent post), but that they get boring. They don't hold very much juice.

I still use one of the 650mAh batteries when I go out. The other one, along with some cartridges and a 1000mAh, I lent to a friend who wanted to move up from a Blu. Having nothing really to compare it too, she was thrilled.

After a couple of months, vaping and researching she bought a Twist, but only one because she still has my other gear.

That video is of a regular carto tank, which is a tank (tube and caps)which hold the liquid. There is/are little holes in the tank, so the liquid can wick into the carto filler, come in contact with the heating coil and vaporize.

You can use a cartomizer (“carto”) by itself by just putting a drip tip in the top or it can be used inside of a carto tank.

The liquid is held in the tank and through a hole in the cartomizer it is wicked into the batting/filler where it comes in contact with the heat coil and produces vapor.

Putting together a carto tank isn't difficult, but does take a little practice. It can be difficult right at the start, which is why most new vapers are recommended products like Vivi Novas or Kanger T3s:


This is a knock-off Vivi Nova (not an authentic Vision), but it more closely shows the components. The wicks draw the liquid in the tank up to the replaceable heating element (head) at the top. The wicks come in various lengths and the heads in different resistances. Sometimes called a “tank” because holds more liquid, the Vivi Novas operate like any other wicking clearomizers (“Clearo”).
