New member lots of questions

[asharp22]

Hi everyone. Well I quit analogs last Friday, and used the patch for two days before I bought my xhaleo2 PV.

So I'm wondering what is different between what I have and a liquid? There seems to be a great deal of difference and I don't know if I just got suckered into litterally the only one I could find in town....

Should I have waited and bought one online? Where from? When I smoked analogs I was smoking Newport 100's.... I really want something that tastes similar to that. I have the mint flavored cartridges and they're okay, but I think I may need a new flavor. I realize nothing will taste like the analogs, but there has to be something similar... right?

what is the 510 everyone on here seems to be talking about?

Is there a place I can go here and find a list of sites that sell ecigs?

thanks to anyone who attempts to answer my noob questions!!!

There's really no difference, the liquid is a part of the personal vaporizer.
Asking the difference between a PV and a liquid is like asking the difference between a Car and Gasoline. A car needs Gasoline, A vaporizer needs liquid.

So the liquid is what contains the nicotine and flavors.
The Rest is a Battery and an Atomizer.
The battery provides electricity to the atomizer
The atomizer is in contact with the liquid.
When the atomizer heats up, it vaporizes the liquid.
You inhale the Vapor.

Once your stock cartridges are empty, you can refil them with a liquid of your choice.
Search the forum/google/youtube for some tips/tricks on how to do that.

Now all the different liquids is going to be personal preference.
there are tons of manufacturs and flavors out there.

thanks! that helps a lot. there are tons of informational posts in here, and I'm trying to keep up as best I can. I'm the first person to try these that I know of, and I can't ask anyone else questions. Then I got my mom to switch and she's coming at me with questions. It's a bit confusing.

Ok I'll youtube how to use any liquid in my PV.

so whats the 501?

510 is a different model of PV, it's similar in size and shape to what you have, but has a few different options.

Manual or automatic, you can have a switch that activates the battery, or automatic which works when you inhale. Manual is recommended due to control over burning your atomizers out or not.

Regular or mega batteries, with the regular battery it's a tad longer than a standard 100 cig, with the mega, add another inch to it.. but double the battery life. It's also a 3 piece unit as well. The largest drawback to a 510 is the fact that the normal batteries last 1.5-3 hours of usage time. Not sure on the xhale.

Cost.. the xhale 02 is marketed as a complete product and then you buy refill carts I assume. Provided you never look at another site or consider looking for any further ecig info.. this keeps you in a habitual, and considerably more profitable scenario than what most of the folks here do.

Price also, I saw the xhale02 is 69-99 bucks on the xhale site, whereas a 510 is around 30-40 bucks (depending on vendor) for a starter kit. That kit would give you 2 batteries, 2 atomizers, and 5 prefilled carts.

Basically a similar loadout, except the extra battery and such. The main factor is juice and atomizer replacements. Have you needed to replace your atomizer? If not has the quality of your vapor dropped since you started?

Oh, right, last week... um, just pay attention to your vapor production instead, and what Xhale recommends to do when you can't get any draw from it. Nevermind that replacing the atty thing.

it was the cost of the xhale that really sold me. the starter I picked up came with a usb charger, 4 cartridges, one battery and one atty. totaly cost: 21.64 after tax. Not to bad. thanks to both of you for the info I feel like I'm starting to get this now. I've been analog free for 5 days and I think I can finally put them down for good. Happy to vape!

Yes there is...

Here is what you are looking for. I highly recommend these guys. This juice has a rich tobacco taste. It is like smoking a cig for me.

Get the juice, the small syringe, and the blank carts.

Google Johnson Creek smoke juice. It's the Red Oak Tennessee Cured Smoke Juice

BTW.....I keep the old stuff around in case I run out.

I will never buy anything else.
