Greetings everyone this will be my first post and I need some advise about vaping, at first when I heard vaping I thought I could just jump in and be done with it but the moment I saw the threads and topics about vaping in this forum made extremely confuse specially when I saw links of online stores where to buy the things I will need to start vaping......Oh man so confusing so many parts that needs to consider ...
I am 33 yrs old now and currently residing in Japan and I've been smoking cigarette for a long time now I think back when I was 14 yrs old, some friends told me that if I cant stop smoking I should just get a e-cigar, Im a heavy smoker. Can someone help me out what to buy to get started? I tried some ecigarette before that I bought here in Japan (from convenient stores) theyre like the same size of cigarette sticks with disposable cartridges but I didnt like it coz when I hit it the smoke is too small like im hitting a low mg. cig sticks.

I would like a setup that can give me enough smoke coz i dont like hitting too deep and too much just to get enough smoke.
Thanks for the advise in advance and if possible please dont use abbreviations and terms use in vaping because Im a total newbie.
I reside in Japan and Im currently limited on buying things on this site only.

Hi Glocknine,
Welcome. I have bought some things from Health Cabin in the past and they are also a registered supplier with this forum.
I would recommend two of these:
Vision eGo Spinner 1300mAh Variable Volt Battery(Discontinued) [01-F-32] - $24.50 : Healthcabin Electronic Cigarettes - Wholesale and Retail

You need two so you have a back up battery - one to use while the other one is charging. It is a variab;le voltage battery - meaning you can make your vape warmer or cooler to suit your taste. They are a sort of cigar size - not too bnig but bigger than the small ones you tried before I would say.

Also I suggest you get some of these:
Mini Vivi Nova Tank Clearomizer (2.5ml Tube & Long wick) [01-D-32] - $8.50 : Healthcabin Electronic Cigarettes - Wholesale and Retail

Two or three of those. You can buy extra coil heads for them.

And as a back up, a pack of these cartomizers:
The ones that say 1.9-2.0Ω
5pc Kanger 510 Empty Horizontal Coil Cartomizers

I haven't tried e-liquid from Health Cabin

@kiwivap thank you for the fast reply! but can you give me another option because the first link you gave me says its for retailer and wholesale only plus its "0" in stock already and discontinued.

Erk, sorry. I was a bit too quick on the draw there. Ok, two of these:
[Joyetech] Joye eGo C Twist Variable Voltage 650mAh Battery

Basically the same thing as the others I linked before - variable voltage. If you want a one of them to be a bit longer then get one in this size, 900 mah. what that means in simple terms is for every 100 mah you get about one hour of vaping time. So 900 mah should be from 7-9 hours.
[Joyetech] Joye eGo C Twist Variable Voltage 900mAh Battery

I don't know wnhat plug types you use in Japan - Health Cabin have Euro and US plugs.
These are USB chargers - but you are best using a wall adapter with them rather than a computer:

For an ego twist this type of charger:
[Joyetech]Joye eGo/eGo T /eGo C Mega Powered USB Charger

Always have a back up charger - if you have a charger problem and no spare charger you are stuck. So one of these too:
450mA eGo Fast USB Charger with cord [04-E-1-2] - $2.20 : Healthcabin Electronic Cigarettes - Wholesale and Retail

As far as the wall outlet, you can pick up a good adapter online. My eGo charger will take 110-240V, so you can just get an adapter and plug it straight into the wall. I run the eGo-C Twist 650 mAh, which usually lasts me about a day to a day and a half, depending on how busy I am at work. At home, I vape pretty heavily, but at work I have to go to an outdoor smoking area with all the smokers, so I don't go all that often to avoid the temptation of a real cig. (Still working on completely quitting, so, yeah.)

I would definitely recommend having 2 batteries, though. A spare is indispensable when you're trying to quit smoking.

Quick response...atty's, carto's and clearomizers are all different. For the noob, the clearomizers have become a big favorite for ease of use, capacity, quality of vapor, flavor, throat hit and maintenance. Good place to start...recommend the evod bottom coil clearomizer from Kanger. Good all around quality and experience for the noob. I still use them every day and when out and about, and they are something special. My two cents. Welcome to the Forum, Good luck, vape on.
