I too wanted to start off the cheap way when I first started with ecigs and I have to say all that did is lead me back to analogs time and time again. IMO you would be much better off investing more money in a good durable device to start with. If you start with cheap products they are more likely to fail and leave you frustrated. Then you will either end up having to invest more money in another ecig or you'll just go right back to analogs. Either way many people on here can lead you in the right direction.
