Noob...

Just starting this, reading a ton... finally made an order.
Starting out with a KGO, various smokteck dual coil cartos, smoktech bridgeless attys, drip tips, and few juices from Hoosiers and a bunch from Parkes (all small sizes as I have NO clue what I'm going to like). I think I'll be ordering some of the GotVapes Flux cartos too soon... gotta try out my options... but some stuff at GV's I wanted was out of stock so I'm waiting a little.

Really glad I found this place to help me get started... because it's all a bit confusing.

Now I have a stack of Altoids tins, in the cool colors like Cream de Menthe, Honey Mint, and Chocolate Covered Mint, I'm eyeballing. LOL

Hey Frog!! Welcome to the forum!! I am new to the forum as well. I hope everything you order helps you along the way and may you find that perfect carto!!

 

[Retriever]

Welcome! And yes, please let us know how things are going for you. Sounds like you have made some good purchases!

 

[flwrfrog]

Thanks for the welcome.
I'm hoping that I got a good starter set up... I read a ton (being an info junkie does occasionally have perks, LOL) and tried to get into at a good beginning price without making a bad choice that was going to kill the urge to keep with it.

There is so much good stuff here!
And yes, I drool over Darwins... but just couldn't see that as a starter set!

I'm pretty keen on building an Altoids box mod just for fun (I have like 5 boxes to tinker with already, and maybe a smalls tin or two)... once I make it out of noob status that is.

A fellow McGyver-dude n00b Yeah, it's great, ain't it? I've been on the site all day soaking up info.
I can't wait for the brown truck to get here so I can have what we're talking about right here in my hands-- start taking things apart, see how they work.
Good luck & have a blast. I know I will.

Welcome to ECF flwrfrog (and yo-vapo) - the wide, wonderful (and slightly wacky) world of vaping awaits!

 

[Vapoor eyes er]

Congrats and welcome. Be sure to drink lots of water- the vapor comes from our bodies not from the juice. Also remember to fill the carto up properly/ fully otherwise it will have a burnt taste and/ or will burn out.
Happy vaping, Vapoor.

Now I just need to find a really good Kretek flavor... though from what I have read it doesn't exist.
Just before the ban I ordered two cases of cartons (Djaram Supers) and vacuum sealed them... I have just a few packs left!
It's really funny when I smoke them out because people tend to throng me to find out where I got them... and I have to disappoint them by telling them that I'm just a nut who planned ahead, and NO, you cannot bum one! (Mean, but damn! These things are a seriously limited commodity!)
Since I still have some to compare to I may try to work up a blend that matches at Gourmet Vapor.
Hoping my switch to vaping goes well as I tend to smoke a lot of the small flavored cigars. Flavor is good!

I highly recommend you try the Ressurector cartomizers from Crystal Clear Vaping. They were specifically designed for a 3.7v PV, like the KGO and they are incredible. I use them on an EPower and love it. They are 1.7ohm LR and hold 2ml of juice. They are single coil, but many people feel they produce vapor similar to a dual coil. They will really make your KGO shine. I promise you won't be disappointed

 

[flwrfrog]

Thanks for the suggestion Rob!
... some Ressurectors and Boges are also on my "to purchase" list... and probably some of those cool tanks Acorn or Chibi tanks from MVs when I settle on some favorite juices. As well as some 306's and HH .357s to try for better dripping. =)

I use an HH .357 2.0ohm on my E-Power for dripping. I generally just use the Ressurectors throughout the day bc they are easier and hold 2ml of juice, but when im home I sometimes like to drip. Go with the HH .357, its awesome. the flavor you get from an HH .357 is incredible. It does have a slight learning curve but once you get the hang of it, it really produces. It works on a vacuum pump so instead of the slow long draws you take short harder ones. It does spit alittle in the beginning fr about 48hrs to a week, but once you break it in it stops and thats when the flavors really come out and it works like a champ. If you dont like the spitting I recommend you go with the Long Barrel HH. 357. They are expensive at $22, but ifyou take care of it youll easily get your moneys worth. Ive had mine for about 4 months and it still works great
