Please help me pick a kit to start...

Confucious say: "Do not use cannon to kill mosquito."

Good basic simple equipment is never wasted, if the person wants to "go bigger", it either becomes their errand-running or stealth vape, or more exciting yet, it gets PIFed to a new convert.

This is true. I've got my two plain ol' vanilla eGos sitting by just waiting for me to get off my duff and pick up some LR cartos and/or clearos. Hell, if I wasn't so bent on trying everything that intrigues me, I'd still be happily vaping on them.

Sometimes simple is good. Though, there is something to be said for the relative ease of a Twist, too. Then again, I'm all about the fine-tuning. Others may not think it worth the bother.

I've said this once in a vape meet...

"if it wasn't for the vaping community and ECF, i would still be happy with my Joyetech 510 w/ PCC that i started off with over 2 years ago... now i carry around $300 worth of mod in my pocket as my daily PV."

Thanks for all the advice. I am going to start with Redd's starter kit. I plan to try Ego Twist in a month or so once I figure things out better. Maybe I'll get really into vaping, maybe not, but I am really glad you are all here in this forum for support and advice. Much appreciated

Brilliant! Matters less *what* you try, than *that* you try! Just remember that if it's not satisfying or you're having trouble, jump in here and ask questions! 99.5% of the time, there is a solution or tip that will solve the problem and help you enjoy your vape. In other words, don't give up if it's not working for you right away. Welcome aboard, and hope you love it!

I started with the Redds kit, you will be happy! I was about 1.5 packs a day and the kit had trouble keeping up with me, but I always felt someone who was about 1/2 a pack a day it would be ideal.

It packs a great punch ( throat hit ) and also a great warm vapour, some of thought perhaps a little too warm, but for me it was spot on.

I would assume for the amount you used to smoke, the battery should last about 2 hours and it takes about 2 hours to charge one in the PCC. So with the 2 batteries should work out quite well for you. You might find extra batteries worth your investment down the road, as they will eventually not last as long.

I honestly feel you will be completely happy with your choice based on what you are looking for and your previous habit intake.

Well done!

Now comes the part of the journey that will/might take you a while... that is to find a juice/falvour that you will love.

A word of caution from my experience in a cherry type vape, look long and hard, everyone I tried tasted like perfume, so get input from others and spend sometime on youtube.

I love 2 juices from heathersheavenlyvapes, Gollum, which tastes to me like a wine dipped flavor colt, and another juice called Dark Horse.

The problem with taking my or anyones recommendation is that the taste of juice is very subjective, so your best bet to start is find a supplier and order "samples" small bottles of many flavours to zone yourself into your flavour profile.

Lots of juice reviews on youtube to atleast steer you in the right direction.

GL!

ps. I should point out that the reason most are recommending the twist with a SD/minivova/T2 is because bang for the buck it provides you with the simplest method and ability of having a longer battery life and a taste of what/if variable voltage does anything for you.

In many cases one of the disappointments we have all had is the fiddling and lack of battery life, so all their recommendations are to try and protect/save you from that.

If you hadn't of added details of the size it too would have been my recommendation.
