Welcome and congrats on quiting and I wish you continued sucess. Check out you tube reviews like Grimm green or pbusardo.

Here is a Vid from grim about the next step, it's a little older, but do some searching after you get what's you thing you want next.

The aspire nautalis is mini and tanks like that are a great next step after starter kits. Also the istick is a great next upgrade or the mvp 2.0.

I love this! I don't even want a CIG. I was almost 2 packs a day 12 bucks a day smoker!
Bought a halo tank system.. But I wanna step up.. I plan on staying CIG free so I wanna get the best cape experience but I get lost with all this. Where does a new guy go to figure out what parts to buy and how to use them?

Can't beat the lil iStick 20 with a nautilus mini or kangor for the price, I have several, the battery will last me all day vaping a LOT.

Naturally you could certainly buy other high dollar setups, I'm very happy with the iStick at the moment.

I learned what I wanted buying a bunch of stuff in rapid succession. Breaking some of the stuff not liking other stuff until I am content. Well util I can afford a reo.

Under $100 is a different recommendation than say 150.

Under 100 I would recommend a dna30 clone and an Atlantis, or Nautilus or Kanger product. And a Lemo or Billow down the road. DNA clone because you can put a new battery in when the 18650 starts to go bad or is depleted.

Congrats Evertking!

Don't be like me--I "quit" analogs for e-cigs twice, and I went back because I made some noobs mistakes: failed to anticipate how much juice I would be consuming, got lazy with the hardware, not with the upkeep, but with ordering new atomizers every couple of months. It was really stupid of me, too, because I have a whole chest of DIY supplies, about 80 flavors to play with and enough nicotine juice to last nearly a year... but nasty old attys made me lose interest and I smoked analogs for a few months before I wised up and realized it was all my own damn fault expecting these things to last a couple of years haha.

And don't do too much at once, too much fiddling with mods and DIY juice, I've seen it overwhelm many noobs coming from analogs, who give up and go back to smoking. Baby steps, brother, baby steps. There's no shame in rocking a simple ego battery, maybe even a twist, with another as backup, with a few different attys that don't need modding. Hell, I've been doing this longer than one year but I concentrated more on mixing juice and maintaining gear, so I know little about modding hardware.

For ex-smokers fresh off the stick, I recommend 50/50 blend at anywhere between 12-18 mg/ml depending on how much was smoked previously

The Nautilus BVC brought me back to vaping again. It blew me right out of the water, it was 1000x better than my old Vivi Nova. I chucked the Joyetech ego-c type B, kept their 510 attys for dripping though they need replacing. Now when I look around I see all these drippers that are RDA and I'm thinking damn I don't want to deal with that.

Oh and I buy all my hardware from MyFreedomSmokes. Good people, good customer service, and they DO NOT sell clone Joye as Joye, nor clone Aspire as Aspire. They are honest and trustworthy as far as you will actually get what you ordered from them

I want longer battery life for sure. Better taste- from what I'm reading better setup equates to better taste. Budget.. Under 100 bucks?

I get 12 good hours with my Atlantis on top of the CF SUB battery that was designed for it. An absoultley amazing vaping experience with no issues that needed to be fixed or tweaked. Under 100$ and so far very reliable.

You can find them online just about anywhere... just look for the cheapest deal, and grab a second battery when you are able.
