I know pre-filled are kind of frowned on here, but they've kept me off analogs for two months now. I guess I'm a little bit past my newbie status now, as I don't buy them retail. Today I got some cartos in mail from various companies and I'm doing good with them. Like them actually. I'm using with two eGo-C upgrade batteries. I'm just amazed at how long these batts hold their charge. Up to this point i had been buying "starter" packs just to get the small 510 batt. eGo-C's are amazing, I'm hardly plugging in anything to charge anymore!

Right now I'm happily relearning my Beatles piano parts, with a good constant smoke to keep me company. And the best part? I can put it on my keys while I'm playing without burning anything. The "e" companies are missing a niche by not marketing to musicians. They're perfect for a keyboard or guitar player.

I actually just decided today to keep a 5 pack of Halo's Belgium Cocoa pre-filled for my emergency backup. There are times when it just isn't convenient to fill up from a bottle. Also I find them great for getting new people onto e-cigs, especially if I'm vaping something that they probably wouldn't like.

I will say though, my previous experience with pre-filled haven't been that good. Most of them aren't filled as much as they should be, and quite often seem to be limited to juices I just don't like. What I would love though, instead of buying juices or sample packs and winding up with something I really don't like and having it go to waste and having to clean out a tank/carto... I'd love a variety pack of pre-filled cartos for tasting purposes. Like 5 or 10 pre-filled all different flavors.

I know pre-filled are kind of frowned on here, but they've kept me off analogs for two months now.

We only "frown" at the price and selection. Some of the best liquids don't exist in pre-filled forms, and since even disposable cartomizers last for at least a few refillings, it's a waste in a way.

It's not just a little waste. The savings of buying juice in quantity and refilling them is dramatic. With the prices around here, it's the difference between being cheaper or more expensive than analogs (assuming cig-a-like and pre-filled cartridges bought locally 5 at a time).

It's like buying water bottles and tossing them vs. refilling them a few times, getting a larger bottle, or getting a refillable water bottle. To each their own. Some people don't like the waste. Some people can't afford to waste. Some people are perfectly fine with doing it.

And of course, if it keeps you off the analogs it's fantastic!

Not by me! I am always ultra impressed with "low tech" vapers who manage to get off analogs and stick with it, because it shows you don't have to spend a small fortune to vape. :)

There are many people who can't afford fancy stuff, and also those who can and choose not to, are thrifty, not collectors, etc.

Really congratulations on your 2 months!!!! Maybe I will get that eRoll after all............
