Do you vape? How long? What type of smoker are you? 10yr 2 pack a day smoker? Just curious.....my suggestion would be to help those whom have asked you about ecigs by being an example for them. You are not in politics are you?
Why is everything so bloody complicated

I'm oh sooooo grateful you were not one my parents, teachers or bosses!
Trust me. It gets better. Very overwhelming and loaded with so many different options that it's hard to decide. The best thing you can do is skip the part where you buy things you don't like and just get to what you would end up buying in the end. The only problem is everyone here will tell you what you should or shouldn't buy. But, how do you know it's right for you? I've seen several ppl in the forum just straight up suggest buying an eGo or a Riva. And I always blew it off, like why are they pushing their opinions on me? I started with Vapor4Life. They really do dumb it down for you to be so simple. There is the occasional cleaning the end of the battery with rubbing alcohol and a q-tip. And sometimes, you have to pull the battery post up with a paper clip. They have videos on their site giving you how-to's in some of these areas.
But, you know what? I grew tired of my Vapor4Life stuff and just ordered an eGo this weekend. I'm kicking myself because I've spent probably close to $200 in about 2 months stocking up because I was so sure I would stick with V4L and it's almost a waste... Almost, I can still use the juice I bought and I have an adapter so I can use the cartos I bought on my new eGos. In the end, like everyone else has stated, it's going to be a trial and error process.
But if you want a straight up opinion, order an eGo (I would say order a Riva, but they typically don't come with pre-filled cartridges) The eGo kit is 39.99 at Liberty-Flights.com (click on the 20% off button in top left corner) and comes with everything you need from the start. Maybe consider ordering more cartridges and possibly some of the e-juice to continue use on the cartridges you get just to keep things going. But, if you have to fill the cartridges and feel you can become comfortable with this, then get the Riva. The only reason I didn't is because they were out of the Stainless with the chrome band... Gold is not my color

Use the KISS method.
Keep It Simple, Stupid!
2 piece . a battery and a prefilled cartomizer...oh, and a charger.
Kr808D-1's or
510's
Now mind you. That will get you off and running, and you'll have to find a flavor and a nicotine level that works for ya.
Over time, and when you feel comfortable, expand out///
That is all.

All good suggestions here and I found the vaping guides very helpful. Think I took almost a month of reading and deciding what would be best for me, kept it simple. Got a kr808 kit and moved up to a riva 901, better battery. didn't matter at all it is a fatter battery, love the longer charge. Trial and error and I have recommend to many friends to switch, and I'm the guinea pig, lol. I tell them what I know and I wouldn't go back for one milli-second.
I can't find any fault with this logic. Maybe that's because logical earthpig is logical!
My advice is to try things. It can get expensive but once you find your perfect combo you will end up coming out ahead

I agree. Can't get much easier than an ego. Stick a cartomizer on the end of it, fill it and your done for 8 hours. Plus you have the option to drip or use the cart & atty.
We may have not have agreed on other threads but Im with you 100% what you just posted!
Yes...it is a learning curve. Don't think of it as a switch- but an experiment, an adventure- more like picking a place to eat for dinner than a life-long decision.
One of the biggest mistakes I made was stocking up once I found something I sorta liked. I still try new things because it's just fun, but when I was really weaning myself off analogs I was obsessed with a consistent experience- but now I look at it more like I do food- sometimes I want a snack, sometimes I want a steak.
I wish a supplier would sell sort of a sampler pack of cartomizers- that would make finding your sweet spot so much easier and less expensive.
Now when I help a friend switch I put a few different cartomizers, and a few different juices in a little bag and tell them to play for a week or so. Then if they like or don't like something we can figure it out from there.
