New to e-cigs. Been reading all day, still not sure. Is this a good deal?

[telephone]

Hi all. I'm completely new to e-cigs. I am wanting to get one for my boyfriend who smokes about a pack a day. A friend gave me a very old blu starter pack, but I couldn't even get it to charge, and after doing some research (on here) and taking to my boyfriend about what he wants, I have decided I want an eGo, although I'm still not completely sure what all the different parts are. A little overwhelming. And I'm seeing the infinite number of online dealers for e-cigs, so it's hard to tell the good ones.
Will someone please help me out? Is this a good deal and does anyone have any experience with this website?

Yes that's a good place to start, I'm sure a few others will add to it. But your ok with just that. Now hello and welcome to ECF.

I haven't shopped around for starter kits so I don't know if that is the rock-bottom price you can find.
But I can tell you that Altsmoke is a GREAT company and they've been around forever.

 

[Crash Moses]

Yes, that's a good starter kit. And AltSmoke is reputable. They're one of the bigger sites and I've ordered several things from them (although I haven't tried their e-liquid).

Thanks. Should the basic (65 dollar) package last a while? Should I go ahead and get extras of anything? Should I include the refill liquid or get that elsewhere?

That looks to be a good starter kit in my humble opinion. The eGo kits are very nice. I started with the volcano Inferno starter kit Monday of last week. I have half a carton of regular cigarettes left in my freezer and haven't touched a one of them since about Wednesday of last week. It is very similar to the eGo kit, but comes with a tank. I had to order some low-resistance Atty's for it and have really been enjoying vaping ever since. Good luck on finding the right kit for your boyfriend.

Thanks Taylon. Should the basic (65 dollar) package last a while? Should I go ahead and get extras of anything? Should I include the refill liquid or get that elsewhere?

Yep should last yah about 8-12 months, but always a good idea to have a spare battery anyways, and a charger.

What do you recommend as far as e-liquid?

 

[Bronze]

tellie, it's as good as anything else. If you hang around on this thread long enough, you will get a million different opinions and your head will spin clean off your shoulders. What you have will get the job done. If BF likes it, he'll move onto something else that suits him better. He'll be motivated to do his own research. Go for it! And good luck.

Hi Telephone, Welcome to the ECF. Yes, Altcig is a great, reputable vendor. I would suggest a small tweak to you plan, AltSmoke.com | Personal Vaporizers | Electronic Cigarette | Ecigs | Joye eGo Starter Kit This will get you the batteries,charger and two atomizers. The atomizers will be saved for liquid taste testing. One of the tough parts is finding the right liquid for what fits our tastes and current needs. Once you have this in place you will need an easy to use, forgiving feed device. This fits that notion for a vast majority of new(and veteran) vapers http://altsmoke.com/accessories/tanks/vision-vivi-tanks/vision-vivi-replacement-coil-tank-kit.html or AltSmoke.com | Personal Vaporizers | Electronic Cigarette | Ecigs | eVod Clearomizer - Changeable Bottom Coil Clearomizer or AltSmoke.com | Personal Vaporizers | Electronic Cigarette | Ecigs | Vision Clearomizer - AltSmoke The last two would require a backup clearomizer or additional coil/wick assembly(both would be wise) , For the same or similar price you could have a much freindlier feed system and a few extra pieces as backup equipment just incase something goes awry.

All In All you have chose a great vendor, and are on the right track. You just need a few samples of liquid to get going and you should be all set. Good Luck. Happy Vaping.

Okay. Thank you guys. I just needed reassurance before I made the purchase. I'm going to just go ahead and get the liquid that comes with it just to try it out and will try others from there.

 

[Talyon]

Usually it's best to start at liquid that's tobacco flavored as its familiar and nic level at 24 ml.

my wife started with the blu ecig. now she is on the zero nic. i am going the other way. and ego or two, vamo on the way. hope to start a long nic free life asap.

 

[chuckr01]

I got my starter kit(Ego-T) from MyFreedomSmokes, it seemed like a good deal and the service was great. Their prices seemed to be good compared to what I saw at the time and the turnaround was good. Find the kit that looks good and then shop around. Make sure you are getting the real thing, you can get duped into a Chinese look-alike easily from what I have read on these forums.

Do you mean 24 mg?

Also, tell him to drink plenty of water as vaping can dehydrate you. He might develop a sore throat as well. This is normal and only lasts a week or two.

Can't beat mt baker vapor for juice prices. I would try a ego t and some kanger t3. Just my two cents I don't know where to get a twist kit but variable voltage would be a great start.

 

[Beccca]

I suggest Mt Bakers liquid....fair price for a good product.

Thank you all. We'll see how he likes it. Hope it works out!
