Oops, I forgot juice. You're going to need to get some of that too or else vaping will be very difficult

$150.00, In my opinion, is too much to pay for a starter kit. The best starter kit on the market would be the Joye Ego, which you can get here at Vapor Talk Store for about $70.00. Here is the link: http://www.vaportalkstore.com/products/Joye-eGo.html Great battery life (I can get 6-8 hours out of a charge but I am an extremely heavy vaper). The starter kit comes with two batteries, two atomizers, two cones, five pre-filled cartridges (standard tobacco flavor), a wall charger, and a USB charger and a couple of cone covers. If you want the ability to use the PV while charging, you could also order the pass-through battery, which hooks directly up to a USB port to charge. If you're not interested in dripping frequently, you could always purchase cartos (the atomizer and the cartridge in one unit) or the Ego Tank, which holds more liquid and feeds the atomizer, but I find direct dripping produces the best flavor and vaper. This was the kit I ordered to begin with based off of recommendations from this forum and I had quit smoking traditional tobacco cigarettes within a week of receiving it. It's a bit of trial and error at first in finding the right juice and the right setup for you, but everything I have mentioned is available here at the Vapor Talk Store with the exception of the Ego Tank.

VTS PG = Vapor Talk Store propylene glycol (one of the organic compounds used to make E-Juice). There is also VG (vegetable glycerin)

No way, leave the tracker as it is! If nothing else, you've been reminded of how great vaping tastes compared to smoking.

I've had some flavors from different suppliers that I just didn't care for and was really disappointed with. I ended up mixing them with a few drops of some of the stuff that I knew I loved and it makes a big difference. Makes unusable juices usable again. It was especially good with some 30 ml 100% vg juices that didn't have much taste to begin with. Add a little VTS PG and voila: loads of vapor and great taste. There were a few trial and error disasters and a few tastes that I just couldn't remove from my atty's (and that embedded themselves on my brain stem), but for the most part, it worked out pretty good and I won't have to feel that I wasted my money on juice I didn't like.

Welcome to the forum. One of my fellow forum members posted these videos recently and I found both of these videos very helpful and informative. Best of luck!

Me too, me too (well, not your husband, but you know what I mean). I actually got my wife to promise to try and quit if I bought her a pink Ego. I can just imagine how that's going to go for me when one of my black Ego batteries dies and I'm vaping a pinky at work.

If you're looking for a decent, two piece set that doesn't involve juices, I would recommend the Riva with pre-filled cartomizers. You can get them at Libertyflights.com The starter kit comes with two batteries and two atomizers, along with 5 pre-filled cartridges with standard tobacco flavor. You will need to find the flavor that works for you, but that should satisfy your parameters. The only thing you will ever need to do is ensure you have an adequate stock of pre-filled cartomizers and keep your spare battery charging (I would recommend purchasing a spare battery and charger with your intitial purchase also). It will probably be quite a bit more expensive than buying blank atomizers and juice for what it's worth, but if that's not an issue, there you go. The length of the cartomizer will vary greatly on your vaping habits. Some on the forums go through several per day. I personally don't use cartos because I prefer the taste of direct dripping, but many of my fellow vapers love them.

Awesome, congrats. That's a huge accomplishment!

I agree. After having vaped for about two months, my wife wanted me to smoke with her. It was probably the best thing I ever did because it was so completely awful that I never want to do it again.

I am sorry for your loss. Our thoughts and prayers are with you. Hopefully she was survived by some younger siblings.

That one and Exotic Tobacco are the only ones from VTS I haven't tried yet. Gonna have to try it now.

That happened to me too. I stopped vaping that particular flavor for a few weeks and when I came back to it, it was as good as I remembered. Much like a soap that smells awesome the first few times you use it, but then you can't smell it anymore.

I wondered that too

Who makes cool rush? Always interested in finding a new menthol flavor.

#11 has occured.

*proprietary*

I love the "propriety junk" category

Vapor Renu allows you to customize your flavors, your throat hit, and your VG/PG ratios. Jason is a good guy too.

Ah, I see, I've never paid any attention. I though everyone was entering some super fancy emoticon codes. <-------yay me!

To which college do you have to go in order to receive your Associate's Degree in emoticons? I think everyone around here is as least in the Master's Program... Smiley is all i got

I agree with everyone else that the Ego is best value out there to start with. I love mine. I prefer LR atty's, but to each his own. I was also a menthol smoker and the Mentha (24mg) from the Vapor Talk Store is the best I've tried. It's currently out of stock, but when you get the chance, pick some up.

That is a heartbreaking story. Sorry for your loss ~

Awesome! Glad you like it.
