suggestions on ecig for beginners

[cumuluslimbus]

I'm looking to convert a friend of mine into eciggies, unfortunately, another friend of mine who expressed interest to me earlier didnt get hooked and still on the cancer sticks.

I think it was actually my fault for not putting him on the right equipment.
It was just too hard for him with his already low motivation.

This time i want to make it right, so i'm looking for something easy to do the switch, and later if they get more interested they can do their own research.

Here's my idea. (it's for a girl)

510 battery (not sure which one though)
prefilled cartos (a lot!)

what do you all think
EDIT: i previously posted a wrong link for cartridges, not cartomizers

Hi Casual,

You're on the right track with cartos as a good option for beginners, but the link in your post is for cartridges, not cartomisers. Doesn't really matter if you go kr808 or 510, they're both good 2 piece options with plenty of options to upgrade down the track. Heaven Gifts are cheap as chips with fast postage.

oh you're right. definitely need cartomizer not cartriges, 2 piece would be too difficult.

That Heaven Gifts link - it's not carto's (cartomizers), it's carts (cartridges). Big difference (EDIT: oops, didn't see that this was already mentioned). I wouldn't recommend cartridges at all. I started vaping more than a year ago, with attomizers + carts, and it didn't take. A few months ago I started again, this time with cartridges, and the experience was a lot better.
Also, not sure if the juice these carts are filled with is any good.

Personally I would recommend SmokelessImage Volt for beginners. Very little hassle, and the juices are quite nice (especially 555 and Ry4 IMO). I wouldn't order the basic kit though, since it only has one battery.

I'd probably stick to chinese ecigs, as i'm in Australia.
American brands sometimes don't ship, take too long, or charge too much for shipping.

Get an eGo kit and a couple boxes of Boge LR cartomizers with a juice your friend likes. Best bet is to have them sample juices on yours first so you start off with something they like right off.

Consider one or two different liquid flavors. I've found one of the issues my newbs have had was not liking the flavor they got initially. Turned em off to continuing.
a tobacco flavor and perhaps a nutty/caramel style flavor (one of the few flavors smokers can actually taste a little.) or coffee flavor (another they can usually taste)

Honestly, it's going to be something along the lines of an ego-t. Basically, something that is VERY easy to use. Not much people out there likes filling cartos and waiting for them to be ready. It also has to have fairly good battery life and low maintenance. This will keep them going instead of frustrating/annoying them to the point where they don't wanna continue any longer.

Anything else will be better for people that has tried e-cigs before and knows what they're getting themselves into. The ego-t tank system isn't the best but, it will keep a very new vaper content until they're ready for something different.

Yeah...might even go with a Hello Kitty motif, if she's into that sort of thing.

I'm with Vermonster13! Plus, I'd also get an atty and drip tip for sampling the nicquids. Once a nice flav is found, then load up the cartos.
