Which starter kit should i choose?

[keyzygirl]

I beleive the Generics are just that.They may not have the same improvements and extended cutoff that the V4L batteries have.

 

[phishtraveler]

good point. could very well be so.
i don't think they have the diamond/stealth improvements...but do you really think they use two manufacturers?

 

[wader2k]

you made a great choice.
here's the reason why generic batteries from V4L are just fine....V4L doesn't build batteries. They order them with their logo printed on the sides. why would they sell these if the quality is different? i would think they are made side-by-side and just not logoed, so they are a tad cheaper.

the logoed batteries come in more color and LED variations. thats the only difference i can tell.

I must respond to this. The Generic batts are fine....but the V4L branded batts differ in more than just the logo.
Everything from Airflow in the size of the holes to cuttoff time etc etc is improved in the V4L branded batt.
For a specific example...the generics are a 5 second cuttoff. Our V4L's are 10-13 second and the Diamond or Stealth Series are even longer at 20 second.
The biggest improvement for me however is the airflow. The draw is much nicer on the V4L branded battery.

We are constantly working with the manufacturers on improving the product. The Generic is just that..Generic.

If you are a light smoker and just want enough to get started I would say the Shorty Value Kit. It is a great value and it comes with our single logo shorty batteries.

thanks for the coupon clover.

so wader, there is a difference in quality between the generic battery system and the brand? is the shorty value kit the "brand name"?

just ran into a lil problem before checkout (again lol), how do i know which strength mg to get? i dont want to get the 0 or 4mg, and 36mg seems a bit high, where should i start? 8mg, 11mg, or 16mg?

 

[bobbysox10]

Yellow, the shorty value kit has the brand name batteries. If you smoke ultra lights go with 8mg, lights 11mg and full flavor 18mg. If you do not smoke a lot but smoke full flavor you may consider 11mg.

 

[yellow]

yes i smoke 3 ultralights a day with tarblock/nicout/nickguard tar blockers...

do you think i should get the 8mg for the included sampler and order a second sampler of 11mg? (and im assuming the "tobacco shop" samplers are regular tobacco flavor without any fruit or chocolate or mint hints right?)

 

[keyzygirl]

I think the 8mg will do.You could get a 5ml bottle of 11mg (med) just in case.

 

[wader2k]

Hey Yellow.....I usually recommend 18mg for a new user...maybe 11 mg. It's a nice middle ground to start from and adjust from there.
36mg is too much for MOST people. Even 24 is a little stiff..especially for a light smoker.

Our V4L branded batteries are improved in every way from the Generic battery. The Shorty Value Kit does come with our V4L branded batteries. One thing to keep in mind when deciding between Regular, Shorty and XL length battery is time between charges though.

The Shorty batt is only gonna last up to 2 hours before it needs charged.
The Regular batt -- 4-6 hours in between charges.
XL battery 6-8 hours. I get 8 hours solid off an XL Manual. This is perfect for me as it lasts a full shift at work ...then I use a PT on the ride home.

I really can't recommend a shorty to someone first trying out E-cigs as they just don't go long enough before needing charged.

keyzygirl, i only see 30ml bottles of juice. i think maybe ill just stick with the prefilled cartomizers. i saw the video of the guy changing the juice in the cartomizer and i dont want to do that right now. and the cartomizers are the same price as the juice bottles, too....so idk.

 

[MrHyde]

I thought it odd that the site doesn't list any 5ml bottles. Have they been phased out?

Also, Yellow, you can refill 25-30 cartomizers with the 30ml bottles of juice.

On a side note, the 25% discount only runs through to the 20th, so be sure to order before then if you want that great deal!

 

[wader2k]

Yes -- approx carto fill = 1ml so a 30ml bottle is approx 30 fills. Very economical. 5ml Btls are gone.

i placed my order!


i got the "Vapor King Shorty Value Kit" and i asked for one manual and one auto battery
i got two "Premium Vapor King Tobacco Shop Sampler # 2 Cartomizers" one 11mg and one 18mg strength.

i just wish i could have tried tobacco shop sampler (#1)...wader, can you possibly include that in exchange for two sampler #2's?

 

[wader2k]

There is a drop down menu to select the pack of cartos from. There are 2 different Tobacco Samplers...one is a Wow Cart sampler, the other a CoolCart Sampler.

 

[NoMatches]

I think you aren't able to mix and match like that, it you want the asmpler, you need to order it seperately.

 

[wader2k]

i placed my order!

Yay!!

Now you get to play the "Stalk the Mailman" game!!

 

[NoMatches]

To clear something up... it's fine to order from and ship to NY. The proposed law to ban e cigs has been written in commitee, but has not been brought up for a vote in either the assembly or state senate. The hope is that part 2 of the bill will get excluded. That is still possible. In the meantime, NY has no legal restrictions on e cigs.

 

[yellow]

i did order seperately nomatches. i ordered the tobacco sampler #2 in 18mg strength....and for the 5piece cartomizer that comes with the kit, i got it in 11mg strength

wader, i didnt see those options. all i saw was tobacco sampler...

does anyone know the difference between tobacco sampler (#1) and tobacco sampler #2?

 

[yellow]

oh i see

one is "Premium Vapor King Tobacco Shop Sampler # 2 Cartomizers ", includes:
Hilton
Kant
RY4
555
Dunhall

the other is
"WOW Vapor Tobacco Shop Sampler Cartomizers" which includes:
Cowboy
Kamel
WowBacco
Wowboy
555

i guess WOW is a different brand...anyone know how the two compare?
