What e-cig should I get to start?

[Ragman]

I stumbled across a smokingeverywhere ad while browsing the web.

Never heard of it before and it sound like something I would like to try.

I almost pulled the trigger on smokingeverywhere's sample pack which is free with $10 shipping but wanted to know more.

Had no idea that Electronic smoking was this big! So many options and so many positive experiences that I would really like to give it a try.

My situation now. I currently smoke about 1/2 a pack a day and my smokes only cost about $20 a carton. I have been smoking for about 20 years, usually more that 1/2 pack but its been a steady 1/2 pack for akmost a year now. I dont have much money to initally invest so I am looking for the best way to TRY e-cigarettes without spending much money.

What, in your guy's opinion, would be the best way for me to TRY e-cigs? I am tempted to try the smokingeverywhere but Im afraid if I hate them I will never try any e-cig again. For $10 I figure its worth a shot. I like smoke, taste, and the look of a cig so to look like a normal cig is important.

Any help would be great. Thanks.

I'll say right up front, I personally don't know anything about smokingeverywhere, but I think if you read some of the links below before you buy, it might answer some of your questions.

No matter which model you choose, good luck with your purchase.

If you go to the "search" function at the top of the page and type in "smokingeverywhere" in the drop-down box, it will bring up a lot of threads about this brand.

I agree, I have not even purchased an e-cig yet but DO NOT buy smoking everywhere. We tried them at the mall, but I knew I could go online and find a better deal. The only one up they have is the girl at the mall told us they have a "lifetime" warantee. I was iffy about that though. And then the pamphlet she gave us wasn't even for their site, but for liquidsmoke.com. It was very weird.

They are also so much more expensive after I did some research. I am planning on buying today from 2 different sites, and also buying my juice from a 3rd site. This forum has been a wonderful eye opener to this new world of cigs. Do some research first. =)

I got my blu cig a few weeks ago. So far, this thing rocks! I like the fact that it is a complete package. For 60$ I suggest looking into it. The only downside was I had to wait 5 weeks for the delivery.

Check out the Vapor4Life forum in the "Supporting Suppliers" section to read about the VaporKing from Vapor4Life. Steve is awesome and you will probably have your kit in 3 days - he gets them right out with goodies in it.

I bought a starter kit in a smokeshop for 150, which sucked but I could see the potential so did some investigating. Found this forum and got the 510 everyone raves about. For me it was just so so. Got me off the cigs, but inconsitant taste and throat hits. Had to be dripping juice on it all the time to get anything at all. Cleaning and maintaining was a bit of a drag too, I was always fussing with it. Found the VaporKing at V4L and ordered it. THIS THING ROCKS! It is two piece instead of 3 piece and they can be refilled to help cut costs. Seriously! I would have saved hundreds of dollars if I had found this first! Check out the forum there and see what we are all raving about... Vapor4Life - e-cigarette-forum.com • The place for electronic cigarette reviews, news and chat

But whatever you decide on, I hope it works out well for you! The important thing is to find something that will keep you off the cigs! Good luck!

Don't make the same mistake that a lot of us did and buy something else before your VaporKing! I see post after post of "I bought my XXX and it was okay, but I wanted YYY from it, then I tried the VaporKing from Vapor 4 Life..." Just buy the VK first

Although, I'm not sure if you'll enjoy the VaporKing more or less without the inferior base of comparison...

How could anyone call me opinionated?

There are a couple of options for you ragman. I have posted a thread on here about a cheap way to check it out, cheaper than buying a kit. It can be found here:
http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/general-e-smoking-discussion/38412-cheap-entry-e-cigs.html

Another thing you can do and this is probably the simplest and easiest way is to order a 510 which is a very popular and good entry level model for someone with your smoking history. You can get a single 510 kit with a single 510 unit, juice, everything to start for $32 shipped to your door. I have not seen one cheaper than that. I ordered one on Monday and it was here Thursday. You can find it at http://www.Innovapor.com they also have a good EVO model which sells for $10 more that would also be a good choice. Hope this helps.

I vote Vapor King also. Which is the easiest way to start. Screw on a cartridge and your good to go. You can learn how to do all the other stuff later if you want while enjoying a no fuss, no muss, no bother Ecig.

You guys are the greatest!

I love the responses I got! So imformative.

So far, it looks like I will be going with the 501 manual ( do they make an auto?) kit for $30.

Im still looking at the blucig, but I am seeing many different opinions.

THe 501 would be an easy choice if it came in white and was automatic.

The VaporKing is nice as well, but I like alot of smoke so I dont know if its gonna produce the vapor Im looking for. I also wish it came in white.

Thanks to all...and keep the opinions coming. I love it, you guys are the best.

Actually, after some thing I read about the 501, I may go with the 901.

Although I dont think I like the flat tip.

 

[stevo_tdo]

Get a manual m401 from eastmall.net They have it listed as the EM4.

It used the standard m401 atomizers and cartridges and even the same charge, but has the new manual batteries.

 

[Ragman]

I've read they have a really hard draw...if its like sucking milkshake thru a straw, Im not interested.

Do they make a round tip for the 901? if they do, i think Im sold.

OK decided on the 510. What ECOpure flavor and ECOpure strength would be most like smoking light cigarettes?

I cant handle regular marlboros anymore, mediums are even too harsh, but correct me if Im wrong, cant I decide how much liquid to use and will that make a difference on harshness?

 

[stevo_tdo]

The m401 has by far one of the easiest draws. My 510 draws harder

My 510 put out a bit more vapor, that is true. (Not much more.) But the taste and throat hit was inconsitent and didn't really do it for me unless I was dripping on the atty, topping off the cart, and blowing out the atty. A lot of work for any type of satisfaction IMO. But that is me. Good luck with the 510. Anything that gets you off the cigs is good!

The 510 is greaaat - great throat hit and just the same amount of vapor as an anaolgue (except analogues are smoke ofcourse) I just got mine and its great - seriously you wont be dissapointed - I would go with 18mg nicotine juice - i love a great hit so I go with 36mg.
