Welcome to ecf and best wishes with your heart. I have a Volcano Inferno 1000mah which I have been very pleased with.

I would highly recommend the Bloog MaxxFusion. Second battery is charged by the time you finish the first. With a PCC, you'll be good to go. Order blank cartos though, as their highest nic is 24mg. Closest thing to a real cig experience that you'll find. If you check out the forum, there are some long time vapers who have gone ahead and tried it and are blown away.

Good for you for quitting....sounds like it has already saved your life!!

Ego or riva from liberty-flights.com. Cheap, long lasting, fast shipping, excellent PV. Interchangeable with alot of gadgets with use of adapters. 510 stuff is easily to come by.

AL,
Welcome to ECF. FYI: MadVapes (madvapes.com) has the e-Power, and ego style ecig with a replaceable Li-ion battery. I've gone from the 510 starter kit to modding my own; but I'd go with the e-Power otherwise for the ease of just replacing the Li-ion batt when needed.

I agree with hairball I use them they are GREAT ! I just use clearomizers with them , flippin fantastic !

+2 You're never going to be satisfied with a cigarette sized battery, if you smoked that much.

The only thing I would add is to consider the e-power. It has eGo styling but, it uses generic batteries. The batteries will have to be replaced eventually and generics are a lot cheaper. Besides, at 3 PAD, I'm not sure 2 batteries will do it for you. If the coupon code ECF15 still works hoosierecigsupply.com is the cheapest place I've heard of to get one. Madvapes has the batteries and a nice plastic case for carrying them. It wouldn't be a bad idea for you to get 2 more batteries and have 1 in the e-cig and 2 in your pocket. I'll also suggest that you get some cartomizers and a drip tip.

Remember you can't run to the 7/11 or Wal-Mart to get replacements if you run out of anything or something breaks. So, keep extras around.

new member here too been using ecig for a year now i love them

 

[lightsout78]

do the bloog cartos onlyl work on there batts? if not are they the best cartos? cause the v4l cartos are ok and some others ive tried are ok but im lookin for some cartos that can maybe last a lil longer / i vape a 5v and im not sure if that is killing them so fast or what

thanks for the help

AL_M, hi there,
You could get a super duper vaper and still keep your original e cig for when you want to go to walmart and smoke it....lol. I'm teasing...but you know what i mean. You could keep it charged for when you go out.

Welcome to what i'm finding to be ....a cool place.

 

[AL-M]

This a great place and thanks to all. I been drippin on the addy that came with my blu no cart got 3 bats still not enough .I know im a vap hog and just a rookie but its working no more analogs.Thanks to all advice this is how ya learn im gona try and ck out all the diffrent ways to go may have to buy a few diffrent types .It was $70 a week for smokes so a few buck for vaping no big deal a diffrent adiction I dont drink or do drugs so im gona vape and probly alot.AL

This is why I can't thank ThePuck enough for coming up with the Puck batt mod; which I finally got around to building two weeks ago. This mod is designed to use NiMH batts and mine has been working great. So if I do run out, I can run out to the 7/11...or Kmart...or Walmart...or...

Actually in most cities of any size you should be able to buy the batteries for the e-power I mentioned locally. Maybe not at Wal-Mart but, if there's a Bateries Plus around...

Congrats on making the change to ecigs, AL-M! If you are handy with a solder iron, go to Madvapes.com and get a DIY 3.7v box mod. The kit is only 9 bucks. Add 2 14500 style batteries and charger, and you have all you need for less than $25. They come with a 510 connector, but you can also get a 510 to 808 adapter, and be ready to vape almost anything.

They are really easy to build, and hold up very well. I have been using mine for about a month now with no issues. I am a moderate to heavy vaper, and I don't go through more than 2 batteries a day.

Cheers,

Otto

Thats a great idea yes i have a 852 soldering station i do some electronic repair building one might be fun thanks to all gives me some great options and ideas. if none of this works ill see if the dr will hook me up to a nicotine IV hahaha

 

[chefski]

I also new! Started with th EGO! I Love it!

 

[jenntek]

Hi AL! nice to see you on here!
I'm glad you jumped on this bandwagon... I can't say enough about how much better I feel after not smoking for over a year.
I'm sure you will be happy with any mod that you get... even mine! ha!
I will tell Vonda that you use VG only... we have plenty of stuff to keep you tooting on your box mod, or your eGo... Remember...
watts/volts/ohms/amps... sometimes some flavors taste better on lower voltage/lower amps... etc... use your ohm meter, check out your atty's.. and... try to find something near the 5 WATT range -
This is your eGo and the box / volt / ohm / watt range:
3.2v 1.5 ohm=6.82w
3.2v 1.8 ohm=5.68w
3.2v 2.0 ohm=5.12w
3.2v 2.4 ohm=4.26w
3.2v 2.8 ohm=3.65w
3.2v 3.0 ohm=3.4w
3.2v 3.2 ohm=3.2w
3.2v 4.5 ohm=2.27w

3.7v 1.5 ohm=9.12 w
3.7v 1.8 ohm=7.6 w
3.7v 2.0 ohm=6.84w
3.7v 2.4 ohm=5.7 w
3.7v 2.8 ohm=4.88 w
3.7v 3.0 ohm=4.5 w
3.7v 3.2 ohm=4.2 w
3.7v 4.5 ohm=3.0 w



Good to see you, and I'm glad you're getting your heart taken care of.
I had no Idea you were even in ICU up here... hell, I'da shown up and we all could have had our own
VapeFest in ICU!

VG = PLUMES of vapor!!! Hi nic gets you a throat hit...
You'll have fun waiting on the eGo with the little black box...
Slow n steady and before you know it? You'll be looking like a steam engine back in the day!

Watts... thats the key 4.5 to 5w
haha!
