Hi my name is Cory. I dont have an ecig yet but am wanting to get one. I smoke around two packs a day and was wondering if anyone had suggestions on what I should get? I know there are tons of different ones out there and some are "stronger" than others and am just not sure where to start. Any help would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks!

Welcome!!! There's so much information (stay away from the mall kiosks) with a 2 PAD habit, those little analog looking batteries are going to frustrate you IMO.

Ego / Riva style battery, I like the 1000 mah battery - a good cartomizer (LR Boge Cartos are mine and my hubby's choice) - and some good quality Ejuice in around 24mg of NIC

Those are just MY opinions, and you know what they say about opinions.

I started with the Halo Element from Halo Cigs. I'm happy with it, no problems. I've ordered a few times from them so far.

hey and welcome to the forum. There are a lot of people who are going to give you all kinds of advice so I will throw in my two cents. In my opinion I think the ego is the best bang for your buck Believe me after buying all kinds of e-cigs I would know. If you decide to go this route be sure to get the 1100 batteries instead of the 650 They will last you longer between charges around eight to twelve hours between charges. Now as far as the rest of it that is going to be your personal preferenc. YOu can go with the atty or cartomizer set up or go with the tank option. There are a lot of u-tube video tutorials and reviews on this device I would go give them a look see and see if this device will suit your needs. I can recommend some good juice vendors to you Try Freedomsmokeusa, Gourmetvapors, Vaperite, Backwoodsbrew, Madvapes and Bombayvaping. I have ordered e-liquids from all of these folks and they have really great e-juices and will answer all of your questions if you can't decide what to get. As far as getting a kit if you decide to go with the ego I would think about giving Cignot a try I have ordered from this company several times and their company is top notch and Vicki stands behind what she sells

For just starting out I think you can't go wrong with an ego/riva. If it were me I would get an epower which is very similar to an ego but it uses removable batteries. It is also true 3.7v rather than 3.2 for ego's. Just gives a little more pep. I guess ego/rivas now have 3.7 versions. For a 2 pack a day don't bother with a small device. IMO I'd start with some LR cartomizers rather than atomizers and carts. Good luck.

Thanks for all the info!! Looks like I got a little more research to do! lol I don't think I have ever posted in a forum and got this many replys this fast!! Good to see it's such an active community...thanks again!!

You know, you guys keep saying "click on the icon in the top left of the screen to get a 20% discount", but I see no icon there. Just the British flag. Don't get me wrong, I have no need to order from Liberty Flights, being Dutch I can get my stuff right here, I just wonder what you mean by that icon in the top left. A screen shot of that icon would be nice for the newbs, you know, what to click on.

 

[Warlordxxx]

Good thought jt here you go

 

[Stuporman]

It says "Click here 20% Discount" in huge bold letters...I know they actually have a couple different sites for wherever you may be in the world so you might be on a different one than the american site and it isn't there?

When I started I wanted something small and easy so I bought a dse801 kit. I thought/think it holds the most eliquid of any of the atomizer type ecigs and the cartomizer models sounded complicated to me.

Now I know; plan on getting a larger battery/ cartomizer model. (I love my Go-go.) I only have to add more juice (top-off) once a day and my batteries only have to be recharged every 5 to 7 days.

With the little 801 penstyle model, I was topping off every hour or so and recharging batteries every day. Now i only use my 801 to test juices before I fill up a Go-cart.

Anyway, here's a link to model discussions:Model Specific Discussion

Riva\Ego's seem to be the favorite around here lately. I am partial to the two-piece setups myself (KR808D1) Very reliable, good vapor production and fairly inexpensive. I get most of my gear from
