New here, overwhelmed, but I'll get there

Yes. Amen to this forum. Unfortunately i found it a day late...if it wasnt for finding this place tho i probably would have went back to cigz.

If you're going with he 510 as your starter kit, I would also recommend getting a USB Passthru or PT and a Personal Charger Case PCC to keep some extra batteries charged while you're on the go.

Rather than all that, an eGo or Riva, or Hello 016 would eliminate the need for all the accessories you'll need for the 510.

510 basic was my first love and a PT eliminated alot of battery issues - but if youre out a lot get an eGo - its not htat big (about the size of an AA battery without the atty attached). I still use my PT at times (even though I went on to a bigger battery mod) and I take my eGo out when I am shopping or whatnot.
I buy all my 510 gear at Cignot your Midwest Electronic Cigarette store. and they were also my first ever supplier of anything to do with PV -back in decmeber 2009! I still use them for all my spares (can never have too many atties lol) as they have customer service bar none and have never let me down (plus they ship stuff before you even THINK about ordering it - they have transporter technology we all reckon lol).
Whatever you choose its great that youve taken time to research first - it should save you a lot of headaches (and hopefully cash) long term - best of luck!

Ok all, I think I've found the order site. I took all into account that each of you said and pricewise and with what's included I think this is the kit I'm buying. It wasn't my first choice for a site but the other site that had the PCC in the package was out of stock. The site is bestecigshop.com and the package is the Joye 510 Ultimate kit (good price too and about every charger you could imagine). I also am going to buy some ejuice and the 10 empty cartridges. They list xhigh as 24 mg, high as 18mg and low as 11mg. This is going to take some playing around with as to the number of drops. My smoking varies with the low end (rare) of 10 cigs per day to high end being 20. More on a night out when having a few brews (I know, I had said this before).

That being said, does it appear that I have supplied myself with what I need? Do I need extra batteries and atomizers? How long to atomizers last? Do I need the filler for cartridges?

Almost there!

Atomizers apparently vary greatly... I have not burnt out a single one in the 7 weeks i've been vaping but I wash them once a week and let them dry over night when I do this. (always have at least one dry spare!! LOL) Some say they only last about a month...and I have found that some of the ones I got with my first few orders don't vape as well as they did when I first got them but they still work. Filler for the carts comes in your pillows!! LOL I know this is kinda funny but my dogs rip apart pillows and stuffed animals on a regular basis so we have fibrefill aplenty LOL But that's basically what it is...u can also use fluval which would be found at your local pet shop in the fish tank care area (its like a filter cleaner spongy thingie) Extra batteries would be at your discretion and would definitely depend on your individual usage but I was a chain smoker (3 pks a day) and am now a chain vaper before I got my ego battery I had 4 spare batteries...one ALWAYS charging. I did find tho that 3 would get me through a good portion of the day without recharging. UMMM was that all your questions or did I forget one? LOL

Heather, I have a feeling that you and I are going to be great friends!

Tis pretty much what I needed to know. It won't hurt to order extra. So, therefore, the plan is made and the purchase occurs on Wednesday!

 

[HeatherC]

Extra definitely never hurts!! After I'd been doing this for two days I told my hubby that I never EVER wanted to run short of supplies!!

I love making new friends and ty
