I started with a XL 510, E9 and a T-rex I bought 3 kits because it was confusing at first and I wanted to make sure it worked. A week later I knew I wanted a Reo but they where hard to come by back then so I bought a missy's wetbox and a big kazoo. It took another 2 months to get a Reo so I got a few more when I could and used those for about a year. then I got a provari and decided that I love VV so I sold the Reos and bought a couple more. Then Reosmods came out with VV bought a couple of those. so that's my vaping happy place provaris w/DIDs and VV Reos w/ERAs

Started playing with the 0 nic disposables that showed up in my local convenience stores around 2-3 months ago. Finally bit the bullet and ordered an eGo, cutting down to 2-4 analogs a day while I waited for it to arrive. Had my last puff of an analog just before the post truck arrived at the house, but ordered a couple of Stardusts within 3 days. Now I've been looking at some of the rigs from the picture thread and kinda want to upgrade...my bank account and girlfriend hate you all! LOL!

I pretty much started with this. Kinda sick of the twists though, I can't wait for my pink ProVari mini to get here.

I started with some chinese no-name ecig which would barely produce any vapour. Then moved onto a 510 which worked well but i hated filling up that pad inside the carts so i stopped ecigs for about 2 years. Now im using an ego-c and been smoke free for 3 months! What a difference the ego experience was! Now im looking for mods to make the vaping experience even better!

I started with a KR808 cig look-alike that needed charging like every 1 1/2 hours. I won't mention the vendor that is in here. lol. I bought like 4 of their sucky $20 batteries to get by. I would carry all these batteries around in my purse and spend all day charging them. LOL. Then I got an E-Power, then Provari, then the list is like really big. lol. I wish they had the things they do now when I started. I didn't know anyone that vaped and I started searching online for info and found a wonderful community and group of people. :) I'm so glad I ordered my sucky KR808 because it led me to so much happiness in the end.
 
Thanks to finding this forum, I too was able to avoid the 'mall cigarettes'. I purchased an eGo-C kit with CE-5's and added parts for 510-T. I use the 510 when out-and-about or when I want to vape something other than my regular. Using the eGo-C CE-5 with a blend of Camel 24mg, Pipe Tobacco 18mg, Vanilla 12mg (50::20::30 ratio) as my daily vape. Haven't touched my open pack of cigarettes since the 2nd day after I got the supplies and learned to vape properly (again thanks to all the advice and encouragement read on this forum). Now 10 days and counting.

I started with a 7-11 look alike disposable, went to a "Safe Cig" then found this forum. From there I got a couple 808's from V4L and some 36mg juices and finally was able to stop smoking. I then got an eGo setup, then an eGo-T. To this day I use a rotation of 4 eGo batteries with a LR Boge and el-cheapo drip tips. I mix my own for next to nothing. I bought a gallon of PG for $30 delivered and 1000 ml of 100mg unflavored for about $80..........that makes a lot of juice! :)

*PS If you're new at this, just keep trying and don't beat yourself up if you smoke a couple on the way. When you find that magical combination....you'll be amazed. Good luck

I started with Crown Seven e-cigs sold at the local smoke shop. Flavors and accessories were limited and boring (to me), and I found Smokeless Image online. Now have numerous Volt and Volt X2 batteries and clearos, and I'm seriously hooked on their version of RY4. Waiting for more to arrive, making due with Ice Menthol and Country flavors, and a few juice bottles from other vendors I didn't care for. And Monday is a holiday so no mail - but hopefully SI will have a big Columbus day sale! Smokeless image gear and juice is top notch and cheap, with frequent sales and discount codes. Even found adapters on MadVapes that let me use Volt's 808d cartridges on my handful of leftover Crown Seven batteries. Replaced a very expensive 4 - 5 daily cigar habit with a less expensive (once a quite buying so much gear!) and healthier vaping habit. Just bought my dad an X2 and he's very excited about it.

Started with an eGo-C kit and learned how to make the most of that (took a bit of time). Moved on to various versions of Stardusts, Mom and Pop's tanks and carto's, LavaTubes and Twists. Along the way I've discovered that it's more important to know what you know for sure works for you, than to know the best system out there. Just my :2c: and this will vary for all of us.

Started with a Blu disposable from the BP gas station and then a ProSmoke. Then an EonSmoke kit from the corner store. Found a vape shop in the city and moved up to an Ego-T with the Mega Type-B atomizer tanks and a 510 dripping atty. now on a Provari with a Penelope rebuildable and a Twist with a Kanger T2 as my two main vapes. Crazy- it's only been 4 months!
