Been off analogs for 31 days. (I had a 3 day relapse where I smoked 2 packs in 3 days; but still vaped. I blame this on the crappy e-juice I purchased and frustration) Even so when I relapsed, I HATED smoking. The smell, the toxins, the ashes!

I've done lots of research and lots of playing around within the past 30 days. I wish to post my reviews, unbiased soon.

Currently using 650mah inferno batteries from volcano (510 thread / ego)

I have purchased juices from Volcano which are great but only at 16mg. 8mgs seems too light not enough throat hit and satisfaction; but still good for a consistant vape. They are 80%pg 20%vg

I purchased a handful of juices from Freedomsmokeusa all 50%pg 50%vg at 6mg which I hated. Way too light and flavor not enough. I tried another level at 12mg and it was disgusting. I am not a fan of this company and their mixes (my own prefence)

I purchased a handful of e-juices from vapor gods which where a mix of 80%pg 20%vg & 60%pg 40%vg ranging from 11mg - 8mg i believe... and they were good the flavors but they messed up my mouth. (I accredit this to being a newbie vapor at the time and my body and mouth getting adjusted to it) But I liked them I may try them again.

My friend who put me onto the e-cig thing uses juices from Obsidian, which I manage to vape while I am with him and they are good too; but lacking something for me (perhaps because they are 8mg .. too light)

And last but not least I was being impatient and wanted to try a clearomizer and tank, and I did not want to pay for shipping and wait, and the only shop I found local to me (suffolk county long island) was eliquidplanet.com They are based in levitown. I was skeptical but I must say, their juices were on point ( 100% vg blue cola, vanilla and blueberry @ 11mg) AWESOME. I purchased a tank which was doa and a clearomizer which needed an adapter to work but I went back again today and they were great and went above and beyond to make right what was wrong.

I think I found my niche thusfar. I do not work for eliquidplanet.. I am just sharing my review from 31 days now as a vaporer. This forum is great too and I have found much needed information!

For the record; I enjoy the drip tip but becoming a big fan of the clearomizer. I gave up on the tank because it uses the polyfil like a cartomizer and although I don't mind the cartomizers they dont provide enough of what I need (throat hit and flavor)

I am a pack a day smoker/ parliament lights.. And I find that11mg-16mg provides the satisfacton I need, but I try to vape in between the 8mg. I made the mistake in the beginning of vaping 12 mg all day and got sick!

Hope this helps anybody! -Jon (sorry about spelling I am cooking and it is burning writing this quick.)

Welcome,
I'm relatively new as well. I have no need so far for anything more sophisticated or expensive than my eGo twists. I have a bunch of then so I can drip and "clearomize" at the same time. I drip new flavors and other flavors I like that taste better on the Atomizer. My favorite blends are all in the clearos. I'm an Ex Marlboro Reds Smoker, and have spent 12 years travelling the world for a tobacco company so even after 5 1/2 weeks smoke free I still wonder how I made the switch so easily. It worked that's all that matters.
Anyway, welcome
 
If its throat hit and flavor you're after, you could probably do with a variable voltage device and a dual coil carto. The dual coil splits the wattage to two coils that are spaced apart and heat more liquid due to the greater surface area. I reckon that'll be you're thing. But if you wanna stay with your 650 battery, use a 1.5 ohm dual coil as this will make the most of your voltage and amp output :) any Q's give me a message :)

some juice vendors have 'sample packs' of three to five 3ml bottles. a great way to try flavors without having to sell the farm. You may want to explore Do It Yourself juices. Over at elixirtv3 | Stickam, quite a few of the regular viewers DIY their juice and are usually happy to talk about it. Best time to catch them is between 8:00pm and midnight Eastern Standard time.

I just realized that my info on sample packs may be out of date, as I have been making my own juice for over a year.

Welcome aboard also, new to this site but been vaping a while. Just remember vaping is a different experience to smoking and you may fall of the wagon occassionally I know as I did.

Don't beat yourself up it's more of getting the right flavours which can be really hard but you'll get there. It's definately the way forward which is why the government want to tax ejuice which is what will happen sometime next year.

Keep vaping.....................

Dave
