Hello all and thanks for all the help you have given me in reading these forums. I am going to be new to vaping and made the decision to go with the Ego and Liberty Flights. I made the following order yesterday:

1 - Ego Starter Kit
1 - Zippered Case
1 - XL LR Atomizer
5 - XL Cartridges
3 - Ego - T Atomizers
5 - Ego -T Cartridges
60 ML of Different Juices

While money is an object for almost everyone, I know that you get what you pay for and a few extra dollars to "try" and do this right is not a big deal.

Questions are: Did I order enough? Too Much? Order wrong? Miss Anything? I want to give this the best chance of working. Thanks in advance for any reply or help you can offer.

DT

Welcome. I recommend you order some cartomizers. Many people like them more than atomizers and they are less maintenance in my opinion. But to each his own.

I agree. Boge LR cartos are the way to go IMO :) Carts and attys are not worth the trouble... but they do work. Good luck to you and welcome!

You did a good job! As someone else suggested, with your next order, try some cartomizers. They will let you vape a little longer before needing to "top off" with 3 or 4 drops of eliquid. They do vape a little different than atomizers however. And if you get tired of messing with carts, you can always drip right onto the atomizer bridge which sits right over the heating element in the center of the atty.

Hello, I am new to vaping also. I would like to share my first experience. I thought the ego-t looked like a good deal because I could refill my tanks and thought it would save $. I went to a local shop here and let them know I was new to this. I was sold the "Ovale ego-t" starter kit. There were no markings on the box other than eGo. I did a lot of research before purchasing anything. The local shop sold me a kit which I still am not sure if I was ripped off or not. I think I might have a knock off. The manual stated it had the battery protection which it did not. The attys were not labeled. One of the batteries failed on first use (no returns of course). I have dealt with major leaking into the battery and juice into the mouth piece. Also I thought the fission fireball sounded tasty, little did I know the cinnamon flavor would overwhelm everything else. So now I am down an atty and battery. With one left I use it still tasting cinnamon. I have cleaned several times. I ordered the new Joye ego-t from cignot.com and hope I have better luck. I at least have learned a very expensive lesson. I could have purchased 4 cartons of cigs with the money I have spent but I no longer hack and cough every morning which is very nice.

I am so sorry you had so many problems. You will definitely be happy with your purchase from cignot!

Best of luck!

Thank you! I feel a little better now lol. Any suggestions on where to get some good flavors? I tried to understand the pg and vg but it went over my head. :/

Everyone has their own personal preferences

Freedomsmokes USA - huge variety
Backwoods Brew - great subtle juices- good tobacoo flavors
Vapor Bomb- great fruit flavors
nhaler- great menthol & tobacco flavor

These are the only ones I'm really very familiar with but there are tons of great vendors out there. This is where it gets fun! Or makes you crazy.

Many vendors let you choose the %of vg and pg. The basics of them are:

PG- more flavor, less vapor, more throat hit (th)

VG- muted flavor, more vapor,milder th.

I personally like a 50/50 blend, I find it to be a fair mix of both worlds.
There are MANY vendors. I personally use vaporbomb and freedom smokes usa, simply because I tried them first, liked them.
