Seems like you have covered the bases, as long as you like the juice you have ordered. The eGo is the best thing going as far as PV's go, you cannot go wrong there, and PureSmoker has one of the best prices around also.

Just remember that LR atty's do not have a warranty, but many swear by them. Try the LR, and the normal attys that come with the kit. I do not like LR atty's persoanlly, even though they are all the rage right now, and many people LOVE them.

Sounds like a great start!

Hey, your wife should be happy! It's a bit of an investment to get started, but you'll save in the long run, and probably be around longer.

Just one suggestion. You may want to get a lower nic juice to mix it down with if 24mg turns out to be too much. As a 30-a-day full-flavor/sometimes filterless smoker, I started at 18mg. I was worried it wasn't going to be strong enough for me. It's PLENTY strong enough for me. I can even go down to 14mg and be ok most of the time. So just a thought.

I have so much to learn. If it is to strong for me can I not take a smaller drag off the e-cig to get less nicotine?

The best thing to do if it's too strong is go to WalMart, buy some Vegetable Glycerin, and mix it down. Vegetable glycerin can be found in the pharmacy section. My wife and I did this with our first bottles that ended up being too strong for us.

Mix 1 part juice to 1 part VG to take 24mg down to 12mg. Mix 2 parts juice to 1 part of VG to take it down to 18mg.

Wouldnt that also reduce the flavor?

Sounds like you're off to a wonderful start! As a 3/4 a pack a day smoker, I also started with 24mg. It gave me headaches for a couple of days, so it was too high, but then I've gradually weaned down to 11mg, and that suits me fine. I don't use LR attys, myself, but many think they're better. Your wife is going to be so happy at how much money you will be saving when you cut down and/or quit the cigarettes. Welcome to ECF and happy vaping.:)

How do you mark your carts? I am always getting mine mixed up lol

This is for my cartos, so I don't know what kind of surface your carts have or if it will work, but I just initial them with a black sharpie. I tried a bit of tape, but that never seemed to hold up too well.

If the sharpie doesn't stick right, try an ink pen or something. Maybe a bit of duct tape would work well too.

But I'm not super concerned with aesthetics. I put mis-matched cartos on my battery and write all over them and scratch the paint on the batteries so I know which is which with my two black batts, and use a carto condom with a hole cut in the top for the mouthpiece on one of the cartos where I broke the original one.

My e-cigs are somewhat poorly dressed. :rolleyes:
