I've been peeking around the forum and I'm overwhelmed by the amount of information so I'm hoping for some help.

So my fist e-cig was $20.00 at the local minimart, it was an Cigarex. I didn't want to invest a lot of money if I wasn't going to like it or if it wasn't going to help me quit. But to my surprise It was a big help to transition me off smoking. A week later a stumbled upon Blu when I left my Cigarex at home. I bought one of the disposable ones and I liked it. I came home (thought I did some good research) on-line seeing good reviews and bought one. Hmm seems I didn't do enough homework though according to everything I'm reading now. Anyway, It's okay I like it, yes I see some problems sometimes the hit isn't that great and the batteries die out quick. For now it's good enough.

I'm just wondering what the next step up is??? Now please keep in mind, I'm a girlie girl so I like the look & feel of the Blu. I've seen some of the recommendations on here like that EgoT but I wouldn't be comfortable walking around with that. To big and manly looking (and I gotta say almost illegal looking-LOL) for my personal taste.

I just bought some "juice" for my Blu and can't wait to get it. But I eventually want to be able to get an e-cig that has blank cartridges that I can refill with juice and learn what all I need to buy to go with the cartridges (like whatever that foamy stuff is inside- sorry I don't have all the lingo yet). Is Halo a good choice? Just some suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks and gotta say I'm just loving this whole "vaping" thing. Wooo Hooo it's bee a week without a cigarette and I am not missing them one bit- who would have ever thought it?

I started with something like the "blu" Loved my m401 all the way up to when I realized I needed something with more life. The egot does look kind of intimidating at first, but it is a workhorse for sure... when you need more, maybe you can get a sleek looking one in a nice color. personally I use mine all day on a 3ml tank and one 650mah battery, convenience is key imo.

Good luck with killing your bad habit for good!

Welcome bunwabit! :) Well you've certainly come to the right place IMO. My first e cig was a Blu disposable. I vaped it into oblivion, not smoking analogs at all. Then went to my local vape shop. After asking a few questions of me, they hooked me up with a Joyetech 510-T starter kit. That was 2 weeks ago. So far, I am very happy with it and still no analogs at all. I get the TH I was looking for and have the advantage of filling my tanks with anything that I choose. Yes, down the road a bit I may find another cig rig that takes me to the next level but for now, what I have is just fine. Good luck to you!

If you end up continuing to vape, most people move up to an E-Power 510, Riva or ego type because it performs better than the mini battery models. Plus manual batteries work better and will not die like auto batteries will due to liquid leaking into the battery.

But if you must stay in the cigarette size models, I would suggest you look at the Bloog or the Volt. Probably two of the better mini models. I would get the manual batteries, however, especially if you are going to start using your own eliquid.

Good Luck

If you want a cig looking one the Vapor4life one is popular but the batteries dont last too long.

The bigger battery ones last much longer. I have an E-Power which I really like but you prob wouldnt love the look of that either.

The eGos come in a bunch of different colors that you might like.

How about a pink kGo? Thats a great 3.7V PV that has long battery life, and like I said comes in pink, or a few other colors which you might like.

Where in PA are you from? Im from PA too!

They're actually 4v with a single coil and 3.8 with DC's. I've been really contemplating picking one myself. But I ordered $86 worth of tank mods and juice last night
