Hello all,
As my username indicates, I have (for the most part) successfully switched to vaping from analogs and couldn't be happier!
I was a pack a day of Marlboro Lights for the better part of a decade, and this is the first thing that's actually worked!
After doing a lot of research (which included many very helpful posts on this forum), I purchased the following:
V2 regular length automatic battery (included short USB charger),
V2 car and wall chargers,
Four Congress carts (all gone now),
3 LiquiMax Blanks,
1 50ML bottle of Congress e-liquid
After reading more of the forum and looking elsewhere, I'm considering switching several (if not all) elements of my setup.
As for the e-juice, I went with a deal for 90ML from Mountain Oak Vapors, which I am very excited about for many reasons.
The LiquiMax Blanks, however, haven't really impressed me so far. I had bought them under the impression that they wouldn't leak and that they would last reliably for 20 uses without cleaning. I still have one unopened, but out of the other two one is completely shot (horrible taste no matter how little or how much liquid was in there, difficulty pulling etc.)
As for the battery, I have no problem keeping it charged, especially given the wall charger, but I really think I'd prefer a manual battery now.
I've seen tons of posts about different setups, but I'd like to stress that cost is one of the key motivations that has helped me quit. My wife and I don't make a lot of money at our current jobs and analogs were just killing us financially (not to mention killing my body!) Given V2's higher prices and the imperfect quality of what I've received so far, can someone recommend me a replacement product?
Here's what I need:
A manual battery
Whatever chargers that battery requires (if it needs any extra, points for not)
A reliable long-term way of vaping the liquid I ordered (9 mg strength)
...and anything else that's required.
If you all think I should stick with the V2 in getting the manual, that is of course fine. The things that worry me most about the company, though, are (1) price, (2) reliability for eliquid usage with the batteries (i.e. LiquiMax / blank carts), and (3) ability to get fast enough shipping should something go wrong with any of my equipment such that I won't have to pay an arm and a leg.
I realize this is a gigantic first post, but I'm trying to get this resolved ASAP so I keep saving money and stay quit from analogs!
Thank you to everyone who contributes to this fantastic forum for giving people like me a way to free themselves from tobacco!
