Where should I buy the DSE901? It's time to give up smoking

[AdamAN]

Hey all, I had this wonderful idea to give up tonight and am on the hunt to buy the right ecig for UK delivery.

I understand the the dse901 is the best ecig around - is this the one being sold here? (www-javaelectronics-com - can't post the url)

Does anyone know the best/cheapest retailers for the UK for the dse901 ecig (if that's the one I should be going for) and for the cartridges?

Your help is much appreciated.

As you are after UK delivery try this link

The Electronic Cigarette Company (UK) Ltd. - SHOP -

or

Electric Cigarette & E Liquid - Totally Wicked Electronic Cigarette Fluid

Jason Cropper runs both sites, he is the supplier that I use and I have so far found his service to be excellent. Quick delivery too.

 

[womblebat]

Agreed with grumpy, excellent seller

another good one is Simon at Electronic Cigarette | Free Yourself... | e-cigs Welcome can't go wrong with either of them to be honest.

oh and good luck!!

Forgot to mention, to save on postage I suggest you buy a starter pack (atomiser, two batteries, charger and some cartridges) another atomiser, extra cartridges, liquid of your choice - I currently is 18mg. If you can go the extra buy 2 starter packs that will give you four batteries, two chargers, two atomisers. Seems expensive but that will give you good backup if anything fails. The platinum model on the Totally Wicked site looks really nice and wont be mistaken fr an analog if you decide to try vaping in clubs etc (managers discretion of course).

I got my DSE901 from java electronics and they are a very good supplier for people new to e-smoking. They are also cheaper than most so if you don't like it you won't have lost too much money. The carts are very good value compared to other suppliers.

I've graduated to an intellicig EVO now, which I also recommend, although I agree that the 901 is the best basic starter cig.

Simon at e-cigs.co.uk is where I get mine. He does free 1class postage to the uk and he is fast.
And his customer service is 1 class as well.

I started with a 901 and they really are great e-cigs (platinum one is lovely by the way) but the only one i use now is as mouse recommended the Evo heres the link for ya

www.intellicig.com

much longer battery life, more vapour (901 is great for this 2) better throat hit, cheaper as well i believe and a recharge time of 30mins to 1hour as apposed to 4hrs

both excellent, choose yr weapon

Wow thanks guys - I'm really looking forward to this new beginning.

I'm currently swaying between the Platinum Mini-eCig starter pack at Totally Wicker (32.99 with 5 mixed nicotine level cartridges) and the mini-ecig starter pack at Java Electronics (19.99 with 10 high strength refills).

Could someone tell me what the difference, if any, is there between the carts and refills? I'm guessing it's just different terming!

 

[AdamAN]

The starter pack at Java Electronics does seem good - but high strength nicotine carts - are they a bit dangerous for me as a newbie? Also, comparing it with the ecigs.co.uk offering - does the ecigs.co.uk pack offer extra atomiser and other bits compared to the one at Java? (it doesn't say it includes an atomiser, but I presume it has to!)

Sorry to post ..... here!

I've also noticed that the carts at ecigs.co.uk mention this:

"Cartridge life varies depending on personal usage but we have found that a typical 20 a day smoker may use 3 - 5 cartridges a day using the Mini.."

That means you can use up what it comes with in one day while the starter pack at Java comes with 10 refills - supposedly 200 cigarettes worth!

 

[BadSeed]

You only get one battery with the kit from Java by the looks of it. That's no good. You need two batteries so you can be using one while the other one's charging.

I'd go with e-cigs.co.uk personally. The customer service from them is great and with their starter kit you get two batteries, one atomiser and five mixed strength cartridges.

 

[womblebat]

ermm java are talking bollocks there to be honest, so 1 cart equals 20 cigs according to them, realistically its about 5 cigs per cart.

I would go with Simon, he really is very good

yes...honest cart life...

well if you mention youre a member of this forum,Simon at E-Cigs.co.uk, Online Store
will throw in 10 carts free...hes the best UK supplier in my opinion...you cant get better than Simon for price and service...get an ecopack 901 mini...

and BTW...you only get 1 battery from Javas starter kit...so its not that cheap really...edit-i see badseeds already mentioned this...

 

[spyderuk]

1 cart=20 cigs is the biggest lie in the history of e-smoking.

Thanks BadSeed. It does make sense - I'm just getting confused about cartridges and refills terminology - I'm guessing that the cartridges ecigs.co.uk supply can be filled up with juice you have to buy, whilst Java's refills are disposables to use then chuck away?

Ecigs say that 5 cartridges can be used a day whilst Java reckons the use you get out of a refill for the price is outstanding -

"Refills in packs of 50 for £16.99. One high strength refill is the equivalent of one packet of normal cigarettes for only 34 pence!"

Adam..they are the same model ecig and the same carts...Java are lying about cart life...Simons being honest...

 

[womblebat]

5 carts a day for a 20 a day smoker is about right i think

as for java, they are lying about cart life, who would you rather buy from, a seller who is being realistic and honest with you or.....java

 

[AdamAN]

Just seen your posts - Java must be lying there - doesn't make sense!

I think I shall order from the honest ecigs - thanks guys!

Once I order, should I get some juice too? I think I'll need to figure out how to refill the cartridges at some point so why not start as I mean to go on!

I understand I can just fill any old cartridge up with the juice and this works out cheaper? The question then would be - what juice?

 

[BadSeed]

You can get loads of different flavours of juice from e-cigs.co.uk as well as the kits.

As for which juice it depends on which nicotine strength you're comfortable with, so I'd hold out until you've tried the different strengths in your kit.

Refilling 901 cartridges is easy. Watch Dusty's topping off video here:

http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/new-members-forum/2562-helpful-links-videos-new-user.html

The liquid comes in dropper bottles so you just drip a few drops onto the cartridge filler to refill it.

As for which flavour, that's the trick. Everyone's different. I really like the Hilton and Riskee Yuice from that site, but you may have different tastes.

Thanks alot BadSeed. I've read the Totally Wicked liquids are great too - I guess it's going to be a lot of trial and error. I guess the carts in the starter pack are standard tobacco flavour.

I've emailed Simon to order and to find out more about that great offer for forum members here too.
