New to e-cigs, bought the v2 starter kit

[sophiedaphne]

Hey everyone,
I started smoking again fairly recently after not having smoked for a few years. Oops. I am kind of wanting to quit, so after looking at reviews, purchased the $30 starter kit from v2cigs.com. I received it today but have yet to really use it.

Does anyone have any insight as to this particular ecig? Is there a particular way to smoke out of it?? There seem to be mixed reviews on here about it, so I was just curious.

Thanks so much.

I used v2 when I first started vaping. They are not that bad for a cig lookalike however they become quite expensive and do not hold a charge well in the long run. You should be able to charge your battery and just screw on the cartomizer and be able to vape it. If you get a slight burnt taste or loss of taste the carto will need to be taken off and refilled with seperate juice. You will be able to buy other juices from any number of suppliers on here. Oh and by the way welcome! Lots of people here will help with any questions.

What about cartomizers? Can they be used with any other supplier battery as well?

Congratulations and good luck.
I started with the V2 as well. I think it is a good start and is one of the better "look-alikes" and I actually enjoyed some of the flavors.
After a few weeks I realized that the look-alikes just don't have enough battery power and don't vape as well as the bigger batteries. I upgraded after about a month.

The v2 uses 808 threading which will only work with like equipment but you can get an adaptor to use with other style equip. The most widely used is 510 threading which is what is on most of the bigger batteries and allows many more options for delivery systems. The volt that is recommended a lot here has 808 threads and you might want to check out the smokless image website. I use only 510 threading now because it just gives me more options and I can follow the sales from lots of sites. I think some of the vision stardust clearos for volts may work on the v2 batt but never tried it so don't know for sure.
