Ok, basically;

My mom and I want to get eGo kits.

Money is very tight this month, and if we both get a kit, we wont
be able to afford enough juice for the month.

On tastyvapor.us they have 510 kits for $25 each. They are clone 510s from what their description says, but they say "they will get you by for a while" or something.

The kits come with 2 of everything..

Since 510 carts and attys are compatible with the eGo, would it be a good idea to buy 2 of these kits, which is half the price of 2 eGo kits, and next month just buy eGo batteries and eGo usb chargers when money is more plentiful :)D)? (along with spare parts etc.)

Input greatly appreciated.
 
I haven't used tastyvapor before, but that doesn't sound like a bad idea at all. It's always good to have backup devices anyway, so your $25 per kit isn't much of an expense as it is an investment even if you pick up the eGo later.

But be careful, it will be tough if you don't have a spare atomizer or run out of eliquid :D

If you do order juice, get the highest nicotine and then dilute it to make it go farther--you can get PG at a farm or tractor store, or VG which is in most pharmacies or hobby stored. You're going to lose flavor but at least it will stretch farther until you got the money to buy more. If you got a few extra bucks you can buy flavoring to get the taste back.

I'd also check out the classifieds here, and Pay It Forward. Tell them your situation at the latter, maybe some members can help.

Yeah my only problem is TV doesn't sell atomizers.

2 kits = 4 attys, do I need more for just 1 month between 2 people?

Also, we will buy plenty of eliquid. 120ml at least.

I'll try to find a cheap-shipping store that sells 510 attys, any suggestions on that anybody?

No guarantees but four attys should get you through a month. Is there 4 batteries too? I hope so.
Good luck to you and your mom.

4 attys should last you a month.

be careful how much juice you buy at first.

you may hate the flavor you get. Get some small bottles of different flavors until you know what you like..

Hi there Vincent:)
I'm hoping this idea might help, you didn't mention your budget above being tight on cash. I personally bought an ego kit from happysmokes which contained the following for $47.50 before a 10% discount "ECFGOLD":

A kit of EGO includes:
1 Standard Atomizer
1 Low Resistance Atomizer for a 5v type experience

2 x EGo Batterys
1 x ATO Cover Cone

1 x USB Charger
1 x Charger Adaptor
5 x Carts
1 X Free 10ml E-Liquid

Which with the reg and lr attys in the kit you'd have 2 complete ecigs (sans one cone which is not essential)with 7-8 hr battery life. You'd also have the free 10 ml juice.

On top of that, to conserve batt life between the two of you a 5v passthrough is both relatively cheap at 14.99 before discount again.
I think it would save you money in the long run to skip the cheap 510 esp if you plan on buyings egos soon - this way you already have a quality kit to work with.

UGh, just noticed he's sold out, you might want to scope out the same idea concept with another seller.

I assume that these kits have standard 510 batteries. In my experience these last about 1.5 hrs before dying. My eGo batts last about 6 hrs.

So... if you don't have to leave home or you can plug in the charger at work to recharge your spare battery, then the 510 kits are workable.

You might look at purchasing one eGo kit (with 2 batteries, 2 atomizers), one spare eGo battery and some juice.

Speaking of juice, Mad Vapes has Bauway Marlb liquid at $10.99 for 50ml, with $2.99 for shipping. I've shared it with four people and we all think it's pretty good.

I appreciate everyones input a ton :D

I think I have decided to get the 510's for a couple reasons;

1.5 hr batt life is fine for a month, I rarely leave my room except to go to friends, who all have plugs readily available.
My mom smokes very rarely during the work day, (1-2 cigs) then when she gets home and relaxes, it goes right up to a pack a day.

Since we will have 4 batteries between us, I think we will be alright.

If we get the eGo's, even at $47 or lower, we simply wont be able to afford enough e-juice, even 'cheaper' brands that aren't as well reputed. Seeing as how we don't even know what flavors we like, not a clue, I think this is the best way to get a good selection of flavors and a decent workable vape shipped for under $120-ish until I upgrade.

Also, the eGo kit I was going to order would take 10 days to get here from China, and that's another $100 in cigarettes I'd have to buy/smoke while I wait. The 510s ship from Cali much quicker.

Thanks again everyone!!

Before buying an EGo kit you may want to check out litecigusa.net they have the Hello016 kit which is better than the EGo and less expensive. The hello is 1300 mAH compared to 650 mAH for the EGo. This means about double the battery life for a product that is less expensive. They are on sale right know for $44.95 hopefully they will still be on sale next month when you are ready to make your purchase.
