Yes, I posted earlier tonight asking what I should get for my first, but even before I posted I was at the local liquor store, asked if they had e-cigarettes, and purchased the Nova Smoke starter kit for $45. I figured that well, it comes with a PCC, 5 carts, and one battery/atomizer. Not a bad slice for the convenience.

The package is elegant and the integrated slide-out AC prongs are handy. Charging light worked well. It comes with one extra empty cartridge (no filler) attached to the atomizer.

So I quickly learned how to puff a bit to get the automatic battery warmed up. I'm a puff-and-inhale smoker, so it was pretty natural for me... but sheesh, these things must be WEAK or I'm doing it wrong. I'm trying to get something out of my first cartridge but no matter how much I puff I can't seem to get a buzz at all. I usually get at least a little buzz off of cigarettes still, so I'm sure it's not that.

Overall it seems like a decent package. The tan-white design with red LED looks just like an analog. The PCC holds 5 cartridges (with rubber plugs or atomizers attached even) and the battery and is exactly the size of a regular pack of cigarettes. The slide-out AC charging prongs are a very nice feature.

Well you didnt get ripped on price at least but its very possible the juice in the carts IS weak.
Is it a 2 piece unit?
Battery and cart/atty in one?
If the caps pop off the cartos you should be able to refill them with your own juice (buy it online, it'll be cheaper and you'll get more variety in flavor and nic strengths)
You wont get the same 'rush' off a PV as you do a cigarette because they contain no carbon monoxide (that rush is you being deprived of oxygen) - there is a nicotine buzz but you dont want TOO much of one of those because that usually means your nic level is a little high lol. You want to feel the nic though - a sort of a 'warm fuzzy' :)
 
I haven't the slightest bit of information about the ecig you have, but ecigs in general people tend to hit differently, unlike a cig. I'd suck on that SOB till I got a mouthful of vapor and take it in your lungs from there, and see whatcha think then. Might make a difference.:vapor:

The cap pops off the atomizer. Looks like accessories are available too.

So maybe I could get a little juice to refill the cartridge. (Cartomizer? I should do pics so y'all can see them. )

Yeah, I can't post links or pics yet, I discovered. That's the one where I found accessories. So thank goodness I can get atomizers and stuff. I might try some better juice and probably pack these for emergencies, travel, or social occasions where I may want a lower-profile e-cig. Probably not a complete bust. We'll see when my JOYE eGo arrives. ;)
