Please help me pick an e-cig!

[magikalpixie21]

A little about me:

I'm turning 30 & want to start a healthier life & that includes cutting out cigarette smoking. I've been smoking for about 13 yrs now. I love it & don't want to stop, so I see e-cigs as a great alternative. I currently smoke Camel Lights or Extra Lights & don't really like any other taste of cigs, except maybe the occasional chocolate or vanilla cig. I usually smoke about 5-6 cigs on the nights I go out to have drinks, which is about once or twice a week. On other days, I may or may not smoke at all. If I do, it's only 1 or 2 at most.


Here are my preferences:

-Decent battery life

-Obviously, no problems with atomizers or batteries dying all the time

-Good draw & good amount of vapor released (I love the act of a nice, deep draw in & like to see the "smoke" released)

-The "cig" looks & feels real (I don't want anything too mini or too heavy)

-Ability to add smoking juices from other sources out there

-Would be nice to have something to carry it in, like a charging box, especially nice if it looks & feels similiar to a real pack/box of cigs

-Under $75 for a starter kit


I've been thinking about ordering "Envy Bliss" or "Blu Cigs". Although, I think a lot of you have had negative stuff to say about Blu, so I don't know. Haven't heard much about Envy Bliss.

I would suggest a Joye 510. It is well liked and supported on this forum and since you are a light smoker, it should work well for you. And since it is a manual PV, it will hold up much longer and be more consistent. Here are some reputible suppliers:

I agree with wv2win, I got mine with a pcc so I don't have to worry about battery life.

I'll third that motion. The 510 seems to fit your requirements.

Your one of the lucky one. Allot of were introduced to e-cigs at the mall\stand at a $125+ price tag.. You really cant go wrong here, I've bought from about 10 different suppliers and the only bad experience was with an amazon transaction. Everyone one else was just great.. I also bought every style made, and ended up sticking with the 901.. but the 510 works fine also..just think you can buy 3-4 for the less than I paid for my first e-cig..
Good luck

I agree- 510. lite nic juice too...

Certainly a 510 would fit your needs. BUT if you want to spend another $5 and can get past the "look like a cig" requirement I would tell you to take a look at the Janty Stick. $80, a 6 month warranty from an excellent company, built in passthough, cheap batteries that last 5-7 hours and produces lots of vapor.............I own 4 of them and am set for a while. Janty USA My wife has 510's and she loves them, so if that is what you choose, you will do well. Widows Bead Work - Home is my preferred 510 vendor........

Just get a 510 with a PCC and be done with it. No, it doesn't look just like an analog but I really don't understand why one would want it to. You could get a white one I suppose.

I may be mistaken, but I thought everyone who was just getting into vaping wanted one that looked, felt, tasted and acted exactly like a regular death stick.
