I'm brand spankin' new to this vaping thing myself. I started with the Ploom, and I bought that because I read about it in a New Yorker article. It did fine until it broke. Now I use something called Smox, which I got because the place that sold me my Ploom also carried it. So I got into e-cigarettes purely by virtue of what happened to be in the store.
What might be helpful here is a recommendation of which brand or starter kit to buy. Which brands do the experienced vapers recommend to noobs like myself and Carley? What's easy to use and effective?

Wow, just from reading this thread, I realize I have a lot to learn about e-cigarettes/vaporizers. I have no idea what a lot of the technical talk means, but I'm looking forward to learning from people who've been vaping for a while.
Also, I'm not shilling anything.

Thanks very much for the info! I quit analog cigarettes in February of 2011 with a combination of gum and the Ploom, and now I'm looking forward to vaping with e-cigarettes. I like nicotine, but dying early wasn't on my bucket list.
Anyhow, thanks for providing the great information, and for this forum. I'm looking forward to learning a lot more.

Boy, I'm coming late to this... last post was, in 2009... but I'll jump in with my two cents. I was a pack a day analog smoker until I ran across mention of the Ploom in a New Yorker article, looked them up online, and bought it.
It's not marketed as a smoking cessation device, but it worked for me. I have not smoked one single analog since February '11. It was a cool looking little device, and the flavors were tasty, but it broke very quickly... it just refused to light after a while. So I returned it and bought another one... which also broke. As did my third. Finally, I just figured, the heck with it and started chewing Nicorette.
I guess that's what I get for buying a product that has the word "BETA" stamped across it. The fact that three of them broke infuriates me, particularly when I paid close to forty bucks for the thing, and six for each back of 12 pods... but I really don't begrudge them the money, I guess, considering that it got me off analogs. But now I'm using the Smox e-cigarette. Hasn't broken yet...
