Shop and compare for newbie :-P 401 by intellicig, litecig, or Vx2

[cenright]

Hi everyone! Newbie here. I have been glued to this forum for days trying to decide what my first e-cigarette will be. I did order a starter kit however I want to hear from all of you what your first choice would be and why. I was trying to decide between the intellicig 401, litecig 401 or litecig vx2. I was also wondering if I could get a few pictures of the vx2 if anyone has any. What I am looking for is something dependable, durable, and has a good throat hit (I guess). I don't want to have to suck on it like a lollipop to get vapor out of it lol. Something inexpensive to refill with inexpensive parts is a plus too (just in case). I am looking forward to hear what everyone thinks! I am super excited to finally kick the can on traditional cigarettes . Thanks in advanced!!!

Rule of Thumb: the more it looks like the real thing, the worse the performance and reliability.

After experiencing many different PV's as well as my friends, I can not recommend any auto switch PV's like the one's you are considering. They are under powered, spotty throat hit, poor battery life and they all will get liquid in the battery compartment and eventually kill the battery.

I can only recommend manual switch PV's where you can heat up the atomizer as long as you want and get warm vapor like the real thing and don't need to do a primer puff. Plus they have sealed battery compartments so liquid cannot get into the battery and kill it. And except for the 510 (which is a good PV) the batteries cost $2 instead of $13-$20. The bigger battery manual PV's pay for themselves in lower battery cost alone. And YOU WILL BE BUYING MANY BATTERIES. And my batteries last 7-8 hours where the ones on the devices you are considering last 1-3 hours.

I would suggest you consider these:

The Big Five in Long Battery Life Manual Switch PV’s:

The Black Screwdriver Kit / Totally Wicked eLiquid / Electronic Cigarette e-liquid shop
Prodigy: PureSmoker.com - Home of the USA Built PV !!!

And if you want the 510 then try these suppliers:

Thanks for the great advice! It would be great to spend $2 on parts vs $13. I will definitely look into these.
