I am a newbie too, started almost a week ago. I did 2 weeks of research before I bought my first kit. I went with a Joye Ego because of the battery life in which it does have a long battery life. Mine is a manual push button so I can control the throat hit. I also refill my carts and I am in the process of researching e juices at the moment. The initial cost of the starter kit and extra carts, juice, parts is going to be your biggest cost. As far as suppressing your nic craving, well I guess this works differently with each person but I still find myself having nic cravings from time to time and I do still smoke analog cigs but only 4 to 5 at the max per day. I am hoping that will decrease as I get farther along in this. I would try to match the nic mgs in the ejuices as close to what you are use to in the analog cigs. If you don't get enough nic from the e cigs you will crave analog cigs and possible have withdrawal symptoms. I was a 2 packer full flavor smoker a day so I went with 18mg e juice and that isn't doing it for me, I have nic fits and withdrawal symptoms. My new order of juice is 24mgs, I am hoping this will stop the cravings and withdrawal symptoms. If it doesn't I will puff more often or go to a higher mg. Getting use to a e cig, learning how to use it properly, doing the maintainance are all time and effort learning process apparently all newbies go through. This forum is an excellent tool in helping, showing, learnig, ideas and the list goes on. Best forum I have ever seen on any subject and I do tons of research on tons of subjects. Read, learn and absorb all you can from this forum. Good Luck and happy vaping

heavy vapor = e go 1 & 1/2 pak a day for me i got a man. 510 batts sucked 4 a day then i got xl batts that was better , then i got an ego 1100mah batt this was the best ( $ 200.00 later) im a little slow but i finally figured it out , spend the xtra cash now or you will spend it later minus what u already spent , BlueMist is a good site for juice i get 100% vg with 15% extra flavor i think it taste better than vg , but also get some fruit , coffee, waffle cause most people after a month of not smoking cigs you will say why in the hell am i tasting tobacco when i can get my nic fit on something yummy, this was my experience im 8months cig free

yea i know what u mean i built a dremmel tool mod myself
LOL... "I need more vapor"... yup... that was me!

I started with the m402/3 because, well, it looks exactly like a cigarette. Then tried 510s because they have a little more horsepower. In the end, I jumped over the eGo stage and got a 16340 MOD.

"Why didn't you tell me?"

<pause>

"I did"


"Why didn't you tell me?"

<pause>

"I did"

"More vapor."

"Ok"

"More vapor"

"Ok"

I got a few lulz off that. :D

Using the video as a reference, I suspect I'm breaking that mold. Seems I'm jumping straight from stage 2 to stage 4. While I'm very happy with the model I'm using (I have no idea what "ubrvXXXX" it is, honestly, all that jargon is really like a foreign language to me at this point. Making reading posts here a bit difficult, but I'm sure I'll tackle the learning curve in short order.) but I'm quite pleased with the vapor level (at least for the first half of the cart, thing seems to really lose it's kick after half an hour or so) however, the battery charging is getting tiresome pretty fast. I only have the one battery and have to charge it like 4 times a day.
