New vaper just received 510

[sean5340]

Hello everyone. I'm fairly new to this but had to make a couple of comments.
I started vaping in order to quit smoking. Well, mission accomplished. I have not had a cigarette in 3 months. The longest I have ever gone is a few hours. I started with the Smoking Everywhere Super Cigarette. I really like this one and my initial 2 batts. and atty. have lasted 3 months and are still going.
Today I received a 510 kit that I ordered online from eSmokeClub. Wow, this thing rocks. The throat hit and vapor are very nice.

Any advice on what to try next would be appreciated. See yall around.

Congrats and welcome to the forum. If you want to try something new you could look into a mod - if you're thrilled with a 510 a mod will really knock your socks off

Hello and welcome to ecf. Congrats on getting off the nasty analogs. Look around the forum and read. On the home page, about half way down, look for the modders forum. It may be way too much or not what you asked for, but it will give you an idea where some members are headed.

Did you get a manual 510? If so that's sealed on the threaded end of the battery and safe from leaks.So you could try dripping (get a 510 drip tip), and try standard resistance Boge cartos (I like Boge best). And there are clearomizers aka fluxomizers which can crack and fall apart but are pretty cool - see through cartos. Just be extremely extremely careful w/ cartos if you have auto batteries because if a carto drips it will drip right on the hole to the drag sensor of an auto battery. Gum that up and you'll need a new battery. And Cignot has some brand new 510-T tank attys and little tanks for them - somebody was liking those yesterday so I bought a 510-T atty and a pack of empty 510-T tanks.

If you are using atty+cart on the 510 I recommend picking up some of the precut blue foam stuffing for 510 at strictlyejuice.com (75 cents for 10?). Wnen your cart stuffing gets gross, toss the stuffing and try the blue foam.

And you could look at the fat battery models of 510. The original is Ego. I got a Riva 510 Lite Bundle (a less expensive clone) at Liberty-Flights.com (under $30 if you have clicked the 20% discount on the front page). Battery life is more than 3x how long a 510 battery lasts. It seems to be slightly higher voltage than 510 (some say 510 is 3.2v and Riva/Ego are 3.4v). So even my standard resistance Boge carto give more and warmer vapor which = more TH. In addition, the fat battery model like Riva and Ego can use low resistance attys and cartos for a much hotter hit. Don't use LR attys/cartos nor the fast charger of a fat battery model on your slim 510 batteries - you can damage your batteries. Note - if you want to use the Riva 510 w/ cartos AND have the cone on, then I think you need to pick up one of their Riva 901 cones which are shorter and supposedly have an opening big enough for a carto. The 901 cones will fit the 510 Riva. I just don't use the cone.

Thanks everybody.

I did get the auto batteries and 10 cartomizers. I prefer the cartomizers over the atomizer cart separates. The batteries are the Mega batteries. They last much longer than the Super Cig. batteries.
Oh, I also bought flavorless juice and 5 different flavorings. Coffee and chocolate combo right now is quite tasty and strong. I think I'll stick with this for awhile.

Welcome to the forum! I spent a lot of time reading juice reviews when I first got here. Taste is subjective but it gives you an idea of what you might like or new things to try.

What you try next is really up to you. If you are still fixated on something that resembles a cigarette, about the only thing left to try is dripping and that's risky on an automatic battery. Some people do it though. To move onward and upward, you're going to have to go to manual batteries. Here are some options:

The first thing I'll recommend is moving to an eGo or Riva. Those are manual fat bats that will go 6 to 8 hours on a charge and they will take your 510 stuff. There are gobs of attachments for them. Clearomizers, Fluxomizers, Mega carts, Mega cartos, tanks the list is endless. If you start adding adapters into the mix, it gets even longer.

After that, you need to decide what you are after and how much you are willing to spend. Do you want a hotter hit with more throat hit. You might try LR atomizers. Do you want a more convenient juice feeding system? Look at the tank and mega heaven knows what.

If money's no object and you don't care what it looks like, look at box mods. The reo line is very popular. The VV monkeyboxx that I keep eying seems to have it all but, these things are pretty pricey.

 

[sean5340]

Well, after a couple of days with the 510 I am very satisfied.The Mega batteries last me about 3 hours of moderate use with a coupled of heavy sessions mixed in. The vapor production and throat hit are meeting my needs and I wouldn't want more. This may have something to do with the juice as well. I have experimented with some juice mixing and figured out what I like.

I'll stick with this one for awhile.

 

[Last_Chance]

What I would recommend trying next is probably a regular ego or just a high maH mod. That way you can enjoy the longer battery life, they arent hugely expensive, and you can mess around with low resistance atty's. Also the cheaper 5v box mods are a good way to experience higher volt vaping on the cheap.

Similar story to yours...picked up an Ego and have not smoked a cig 38 days.
I have been trying all types of liquids. Really like a blend of PG and VG. Not much into fruity stuff, I am drawn to the tobacco flavors since I always enjoyed a stogie and pipe once in awhile.

Yeah I'm not big on the sweet stuff either. Vaping some brandy flavored now. Not too bad.
