What e-cig to get?

[Kent C]

and i see lots of 510's titans,joye, scorpion, and others, and pref. or all the same just diff like bats, extras, and so on? im just worried about money really, being the bread winner for m family, with 3 kids and a wife, money gets tight. but smoking costs a bit to much ( Alot really) and shes a very addicted smoker.

All 510 parts are interchangeable. The differences are either cosmetic or in warranty - Janty makes good stuff has more of a warranty than some other places. And while I haven't tried Widow yet I should mention that site as it is a favorite run by evidently a good vendor and reportedly good shipping:

Widows Bead Work - E-cigarette Store

Get your starter kits and some extra atomizers - you get them with the Innovapor deal, and then sample some juices and find the juices you really like. You might get a passthrough or PCC or a Kensington external batt kit, but in the long run the only expense should be more juice and it won't come close to what you would spend for analogs even if you MYO (which I did for around .80/pack before the tax hike - and there's a workaround for that too...) or what you'd spend in healthcare costs.... With maintenance on attys and batts you'll spend less with replacements as well.

Check out the Kr-808D1 @ Cigeasy. I bought one from Vapornine and love it, and have been doing business with cigeasy for the past couple of weeks now. His prices are great, products are top notch, and he's a pleasure to do business with.

I like the KR-808D1 (Vapor King, Nebula, etc) because of its intense throat hit and great battery life. Also, cigeasy's mint cartridges are very menthol-esque, not just mint flavored juice.

Good luck with your future purchase, hope you find something that helps you kick the analogs.

im seeing alot of different mg sizes, what would be near to what we smoke now? all i need is to get alot of one mg setting and her start flipping out about nicking... =\ shes like the hulk without a cigarette and though im in the army, im scared ****less of her sometimes lol

You'll just have to try out all of them. I was a 2+ closing on 3 pack/day smoker of ultra lights and then later light MYOs. (make your owns). My wife smoked the same at about 1pack/day. She prefers (needs) the higher - 16-18mg nic and I can get by with the 11 or even 6mg nic juices, but I'm probably vaping more than she is too.

though im in the army,

I see Widow's Bead has a special for military personnel. Check out the link on one of the last posts.....

Im thinking the innovator simply:
2 510's, 4 batteries, 2 PCC, 8 atomizers, 8 3ml of eliquid, with 16 cartridges, and 2 chargers.

for needing 2 with the works, and a startup supply of e-liquid i think it is the best deal, since free shipping plus 25 percent off, which makes it 150 ( woulda spent 120 with Blu Lol, they are good sales people there, had me fooled..... and im a sales man as well for 3 years.... Yes army NG, full time sales man, full time college, 3 kids and a wife, busy busy busy i am lol

 

[iori276]

the 16 cartridges are prefilled.. are you able to fill them back up? how long do cartridges last? atomizer? and how much you put into them ? ( i like to know all about it befor i do, espec. when its kinda expensive ( and i know ill save money in the long run, but you know gotta learn to crawl before walking

I think you're right on track with that. The only thing would be trying to mix up the varieties of ECOpure - you'll have choices in carts and bottles and 2-15ml bottles to complete the coupon transaction (if that's still the case) so chose the widest variety with flavors and nic content.

Cartridges - yes you can refill them. How long - I put them in the Everclear like the atomizers but not as often. Soak em good. Lay out on a towel and press until dry, smell it, put back into Everclear if needed, etc. I haven't thrown any out.

Atomizers - some burn them out first day, others have had them for months and months.

Battery - same as above

I use the cart mod mentioned in another post:

On carts, check this out:
Cart Mod for better refilling

I fill drop by drop until the fluid bubbles over the cart (not overflowing) then drop a few drops in the atomizer, then the fluid in the cart has dropped some, so I add a few more. Bubbles coming out of the straw allows more juice.

I used plastic quetip shafts for the cart mod - cut to 11/16's - I usually cut about 1/8 inch off the bottom of the filler - kept the 45degree cut on the straw inward and I keep the straw on top when I insert the cart onto the atomizer - aligned with the button on the battery if it's on top. Just
'my way'.. I'm sure others do differently.

im really worried about the 510's battery life, wifes not to great at charging stuff and it seems that would be a huge hasssle fpr her and i, and bat mods for the 510 or a similiar device ?

 

[ferretlovr]

I was making do with one 510 kit before I got the second kit. It was no problem rotating them as far as getting them charged. Don't worry, your wife won't forget to charge them. It's not like having to recharge your cell phone, which I can never remember to do. The next vape will be on your mind so you won't forget, believe me. If you can afford the PCC it will also come in handy.

Unless you get a mod you're going to have battery changing on any other model and yet it is not a big thing to change and charge a battery - screw it in...

There are certain differences in each ecig type. Because the 510 is a manual switch some people tend to hang on it and it gets hot and uses more battery. That isn't necessary but people do it. So then when you have fanboys that started with either the 901 or the 801 that's the first thing you'll hear about 510's. If it's the 510 fanboys then you'll here how you'll suck your brains out starting an auto and that you don't get enough vapor because the auto cutoff won't allow it. So you're going to have to look past that and try something.

I happen to have a 4081 auto and the 510 and if it weren't for the 510 I'd still be smoking cigarettes. If I would have gotten a 801 or 901 that might be the same result. I can only tell you my experience. I'm not selling the devices... so I really don't care what you buy. I'm just passing my experience on to you and others can too and you get to decide.

I know that my battery life for the 510 is no worse than the 4081 that I have. The battery itself on the 4081 is a nuisance. It cuts off just when you don't want it to. And doesn't start well either. It's an auto.

Maybe you should get one of each and see what the wife likes the best. Like one 901, one 801 and one 510. It really might be cheaper to do that. Then you'll know. And almost all mods I know of are made from (or have adapters for) those attys, in case later you decide to go with a mod.

thanks, so battery due to nicking isnt an issue. Looks like 510's the one for me and my wife. whats a good quality one. Innovator's good right, at 150.00 i hope so. any one else have any preferences

 

[TheColoradoDude]

Is that for 3 510 Starter Kits? If not please shop around. HealthCabin.net or others.

The fact that the battery is manual and that people can hold on to it as long as they want can be an issue. The trick is to hit it a second before inhaling then don't hang on it. I find it can heat up if I'm 'sampling' but in normal use, it's not a problem and again ymmv on recharging depending on your habit and method. If it was all that bad, it wouldn't sell.

At home, I'm on the passthru at the computer and watching tv anyway. But when out, I have the PCC which charges batteries on the go. I did a test - first charge on PCC was 46 min., 2nd charge (oddly) 38 min., then 1:10, 1:15, 1:25, and the last(6th) never finished, but after 2 hours I removed it and was usable.

With innovapor be sure to check the coupon link... the $150 indicates 4 ecigs and 8 attys, chargers, carts, juice and PCCs/or pelican case or both... and free shipping... It's a good deal, imo.

2 kits, 4 extra attys, 2 PCCs (or pelican case), chargers, double carts & juice, free shipping.

 

[iori276]

last chance to convince me of other products. inno double starter kit going once? do i hear a twice and third?

 

[TheColoradoDude]

The PCC is a must and is awesome with the 510's! That was my initial problem, I would be out and my batteries woudl be done and then I would be screwed. Having the pcc allows me to only carry a couple batteries out with me when I go out and they will be constantly charged.

The only concern I have is that they seem to be made pretty cheaply so we shall see how long it lasts.

Agree. PCC really makes travelling around much easier although I do have a usb charger for the cig lighter.

iori when you chose that option - even though the pelican case is really cool ;-) get at least one PCC... You can pick up the pelican case in another order when you're buying extra 'parts' (ie. just buy a kit and add the pelican case for what $40 total? and they give you juice and a charger as well.)

 

[iori276]

alright just ordered the doubles kit from innovator. WOOT. they have great customer support, cant wait for the kit and down the road the PPC!

 

[iori276]

still waiting =\
