Hi all!
My name is Brandon and I started vaping back in April. I used to smoke fairly regularly but only around two smokes a day which isn't much but it's definitely too much for my straight-edge girlfriend. So since I kind of like her quite a bit and I'm aware of the consequences, I figured it wouldn't hurt to try the electronic route to quit. I shelled out $15 for a 21st Century disposable because I didn't want to make an investment in a starter pack to find out I can't stand them. After digging it for what it was, I found a disposable Blu e-cig and wanted to compare it to since, from what I gathered, it is a fairly reputable company.
After being sold on the vapor, I bought the Krave (made by Smoke51) e-cig starter pack at the discount tobacco store and for the price and convenience, it's quite a good deal. The pulls and throat hits are pretty reasonable. It only comes in menthol or tobacco flavoring-the menthol is too strong, though. They also only come in 14mg of nicotine ('14' is on the cartridges). However, they don't last too long after puffing a lot for a couple days before they taste burnt. The battery and atomizer is also still going strong after a few months, so far. I'm surprised I can't find anyone who has done any reviews on Krave's non-disposable e-cigs. All in all, a good start for me, imo.
I'm here to learn more about refilling my own cartridges as I'm aware of the cost efficiency. I also really, really want one of the passthrough PVs(under $30) since I'm usually around my computer or usb car charger.
So I'd appreciate recommendations for brands of juice(clove flavoring, maybe? I miss Djarum smokes) and passthrough PVs that can work with a 'gaming' laptop(does usb 3.0 help?) and regular usb car chargers.
I'm really glad that this forum exists; The community here seems huge as well as the abundance of information.
I'm also into Jeep Wranglers, photography, music and musical instruments, and straight shaving.
Later and have a great day!
Brandon
