Hi! Welcome to the forum. You'll get tons of different answers to this because everyone has their favorite PV. And what is the best choice for one person may not be what is best for another. My favorite is the 902 from Modern Vapor - products, price and customer service are all excellent!

Do your research and read through the forum. there is so much great information here, and people are always willing to help a newbie.

Start with this thread:

Best of luck!

As a light smoker, maybe a M401 would suit you.

By the time you by the pieces, you will have spent the money that it would cost you for a kit. (Atomizer, 2 Bats and and charger.)

2. somewhere where i can buy menthol e-liquid.. low price.. and ok quality..

LightCigUSA.net has great prices and good Menthol liquid. They also sell parts if you're determined to go that route.

That's okay, we were all newbies at one time or another.

The 801 has a good reputation. It's bigger than most e-cigs, but has excellent battery life. Also, parts for it tend to be relatively cheap. That said, though, the models most recommended for the beginning vaper are:

-the 510 - A bit more expensive, but has big vapor production, and has a more analog-like throat hit. Battery life is not so good, however.

-The 901 - Very like the 510, but not so expensive. Not as much vapor, but better for subtle flavored e-juice.

-The 401 - also an excellent model, though I know less about it.

Be sure to get MANUAL batteries, whatever e-cig you get. They are less problematic and give you more control, and usually, more vapor.

the good thing about the kits is you do get an extra batery for the 801 for the 510 you get a second atty and a second bat. I know you said you dont want that but I will tell you attys and batts will go bad eventually. if you have an extra one you wont have to wait untill an order comes in for your dead parts.

Again I know you said you dont want the extra parts, but I would highly reccomend you getting the kit that has the extra parts. You can put them up for storage untill you need them but it is better to have extra than have one go bad and not have an extra.

the 801 I find some flavors I like it better than the 510. it is a lot bigger than the 510 but the battery last longer on a charge. the cartridges also hold more liquid than the 510. I like that fact about it as when I am driving I use the 801 so I dont have to refill the cart as much. I havent tried the 401 so I cant comment on it. I do know people have had good reviews for the sidesho from modern vapor.

I hope what I have said helps you some.

If your looking for cheap the 501 starter kit and yes you will need a kit can be found at www.cignot.com $35.00 the cheapest place to buy ejuice is www.eastmall.com but 7-10 days shipping and 50$ min purchase. The reason you need a kit is it will cost more buying ala cart you need at least two batteries as each one last about 2-3 hrs b4 needing to be charged again. You need a battery charger if buying ala cart you will need extra carts as well.

i dont smoke that much..

so i dont need a extra battey..

or all the cartriges..

i juss need a simple one unit haha and charger..


ohh n thnx..i fund the liquid.. at light cig usa
You need to have an extra battery and atomizer on hand. What if one breaks? Are you not going to smoke for 3-7 days while you wait for a replacement? Also, the batteries need to be recharged often. You'll want to keep one charging while using the other one.

Buying just one battery and one atomizer is like having a car without a spare tire.

TRUST ME ON THIS.

cignot.com has a stater kit with 2 attys, 2 batteries, charger and some carts for $35.

Here is what i recommend:

Electronic Cigarette | Electronic Cigarettes | E-Cigarettes | E-Cigs from Smoore -

1 x M401 starter kit
1 x USB Passthrough
10 x Atomisers
100ml to 260ml of E-Liquid (recommended flavor: Marlboro)
10-20 blank carts
2 -4 Manual Batts (either M401 or M402 size)

You should be ok for a while. When you are at a place with loud noises, change to your manual batts. The USB Passthrough is a great piece so don't forget this in your order no matter what. Atomisers are only $6 a piece when ordering 10pcs. The liquid amount you wish to order is your choice. 260ml is currently going for only $66 so you can decide if you wanna stock up.

Hope this helps. :)

Google the M9 Ecig. It's a disposable unit. About $7.00. Try a couple of them.
A kit is because YOU HAVE TO CHARGE THE BATTERIES.
White, looks like a cigarette--- stop in a Pilot Truck Stop and drop a hundred on an NPRO and a pack of carts, and try it.
This is all trial and error, or trial and success..
Best of luck
