I tried to be funny with the title there. However, my question regards to vaping or not. I've never smoked a cigarette, just smoked alot of Hookah. I've been diagnosed with depression and anxiety (take meds for that). I noticed that whenver i entered my depression state or was confused i used to smoke hookah and all was better during that time. I just like the ambiance of the smoke and i feel like im exhaling all the negativity etc.

Basically what i want to ask is, is it a good idea for me to try getting a 510 manual ( i heard about it ). I also was wondering if there was liquids out there that had 0% nicotine and just nice flavors. Once again, i am a complete noob at this e cig thing, but i like the idea and i think it might help me out.

Thanks for the help!

There are loads of e-juice vendors that offer 0% nic juices. One of my personal favorite vendors of juice is Rawr Vapor: Home page I've tried just about every single juice they have and they're all fantastic juices. Also a 510 manual battery is a good device for what you are looking to do with it. I might recommend and eGo Twist simply because it's a more versatile battery, for not a lot more $$. Good luck in your search for a nice relaxing set up!

Thank you guys for the quick responses! I checked out the Rawr Vapor site, it's nice, the go kit they have there is nice as well. I was wondering what is a good site for my first e-cig and which one would be good? Like i said, all i know is what i see in videos, hah. And also, what is better the atomizer or the cartomizer. Thanks again for the help!

an atomizer is (arguably) going to give you a better taste than a cartomizer...the trade off for that though is that you must drip liquid onto the atomizer every 8-15 drags...some people are not bothered by this...others are...i personally find the taste difference to be neglible...and so the convenient of the cartomizer or tank is what i prefer

Similar story here. I used to get bad anxiety attacks and every time one would start up I would light up a cig and it calmed me down. It was a mental thing. I knew if I was inhaling and exhaling then I was breathing fine (my attacks would make me feel like my throat was closing up). So if you want to try vaping, every vendor carries 0 nic. Good luck!

Personally, I like a small, cigarette-like device. I know some people like to do a bunch of mods and vape from futuristic, sci-fi-looking devices. I just want to be able to pull it out of my purse and vape, without drawing a lot of attention. That being said, the Joye 510, and other similar 510 threaded e-cigs, seem to be very easy to find among many vendors, and therefore competitively priced. The same goes for their compatible cartomizers and atomizers. I started out almost a year ago, with no 7 ecigs, aka 7s, or my7s. The micro e-cig they sell is an RN4081. I just ordered a 4081 to 510 adapter so that I can continue to use my 4081 batteries with 510 carts, until they no longer take a charge. The 7s were just too expensive to keep replacing. I do have the PCC (portable charging case) for the 7s (rn4081), but my 510 charges in that case too. Hopefully it's alright to do that, and it won't blow up on me one day, but I've been charging it with the 4081 pcc for over a month now, and so far, so good.

I wouldn't recommend the cig-alikes to anyone that's looking for something to replace a hookah. Even the better cig-likes like the Smokeless Image Volts (if you like cig-alikes, check those out, they kick ....), but even those are not going to produce enough to satisfy someone looking for a hookah like vape.

You would be well served starting with something like the eGo twist or the Vision Spinner (these have variable voltage so you can turn them up or down to get the best heat and flavor from your juice) and either a vivi nova, or a good dripping atty if you'd like to explore that. These are going to be cigar sized but give you much longer battery life than the little 510s, and more control. For 0 nic juice, you can actually get PG, VG and some flavorings and make your own for pennies a day. No sense paying someone 50c- $1 per ml for juice when you can mix your own without even worrying about handling nic.

Thanks alot JENerationX! I looked at some reviews for the Vision Spinner, and i think that is exactly what i need. Now, i don't know exactly all the things i will need to start with that. I'm on the GotVapes websites, and most likely going to order from there. So the 1100maH one just comes with that, i need to buy a charger and so forth. Now, can any maH ego charger work with that? Also, i looked at the mini Nova and i think i might get this one "GotVapes Vision Mini ViVi Nova™ 2.5ml 2.4ohm" Last thing is, will all of that fit together and work? ( I know that might a silly question, but i have no idea what works with what lol. Thanks again!

Sounds like a good setup to get you going. You definitely want something with an 1100 mah battery in my opinion or its just too much of a hassle. Let us know how you like it, or what you don't like and we can help you tweak your setup. Happy vaping! Oh, if you are already ordering from GotVapes and are interested in trying a cartomizer, try the Phoneix Reborn Bottom Fill carts.

You should be fine with that. Now all you need is some juice. You can either get some from a juice vendor or make your own. For suggestions you can check in the general e-juice discussion area.
